Abstract
In recent years, light emitting diodes (LEDs) have become a viable alternative to conventional light sources. The LEDs are now approaching performance levels that make them attractive for use in several illumination applications. One of the main advantages of LEDs is their very long life that it is also related directly with the maintenance of the LED current, preventing the device overheating. To contribute with the advantages of the LEDs, the same ones need efficient drivers with optimized control circuitry. The main focus of this paper is to improve the LED driver characteristics using microcontrolled Cuk converter, therefore, greater durability and efficiency can be achieved and working for different nominal values of voltage, from an universal input voltage or battery. Mathematical analysis and experimental results are presented to the drive of an LED lamp of 11 W built with 10 power LEDs Creereg XLampreg XR-C.Keywords
