How to dim a Meanwell ELN-60-48D... - Page 8

joelatx · 11/16/2011, 10:40 PM

I have been looking on these boards for 2 days and can't find how to purchase kits or just boards.

Only place I find it at is BOOSTLED.

Please point me in the right direction.

DWZM can you PM me?

Joe,

What 'parts' are you trying to find? I like RapidLED for LED related item, but there is also Cutter, and ReefLEDLgihts.

If you are looking for components I like Future Electronics (I think they are cheaper), but there is also Digikey, and Mouser.

Resurrecting thread to see if there is any new info re: dimming of Meanwell D's by converting PWM to analog out..

Also I have just acquired a StevesLED board w/ 10 or 5v PWM "out" and I am trying to figure out the best way to dim using this and some Meanwell "d" drivers..
currently, though the controller will turn them on the PWM will not ramp them up nor down (except at end of cycle by capacitor discharge???)

I have tried some hit and miss R/C circuits but the output isn't ramped, just goes to "on" eventually.. showing 9.8V out w/ VOM..

this thread is very informative but unfortunately "messy" for beginners..
And though the circuits presented her are probably "elegant" it is not in a user friendly format for beginners..
Also any real world differences between "powered" conversion and simple R/C low pass filters would be appreciated..

anyone care to "condense" this a bit??? Thanks.
