Osram and Infineon bring NFC programming to lighting
Osram and Infineon Technologies are working together to enable Near Field Communication (NFC) programming for the lighting industry.
In a move that's intended to reduce complexity and encourage greater functionality and efficiency Osramâs OPTOTRONIC FIT product family now features Infineonâs NLM0011 and NLM0010 dual-mode NFC wireless configuration integrated circuits (ICs) with pulse width modulation (PWM).
NFC programming is an emerging technology that's designed to replace the time-consuming resistor-setting techniques via a contactless NFC interface. The integrated constant lumen output (CLO) functions additionally help saving energy by maintaining the luminous flux over an extended luminaire lifecycle. The NFC interface solution allows for more cost-efficient, non-dimmable LED driver products.
