  • MEMS STRESS ISOLATION TECHNOLOGY WITH BACKSIDE ETCHED ISOLATION TRENCHES
    Publication number: 20240300808
    Abstract: Described herein are manufacturing techniques for achieving stress isolation in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices that involve isolation trenches formed from the backside of the substrate. The techniques described herein involve etching a trench in the bottom side of the substrate subsequent to forming a MEMS platform, and processing the MEMS platform to form a MEMS device on the top side of the substrate subsequent to etching the trench.

  • ADAPTIVE CURRENT LED DRIVER CIRCUIT
    Publication number: 20200281060
    Abstract: A LED lighting system with an adaptive current LED driver circuit is disclosed. The adaptive current LED driver circuit includes a LED driver for powering a LED light fixture and an adaptative circuit. The adaptive circuit includes a measuring circuit and a CPU or micro-processor for running adaptive software that computes operating currents and/or operating voltages of the LED driver and adjusting operating line current values of the LED driver meet optimal power requirements of the LED light fixture.

  • Soft switch relay circuit
    Patent number: 10278262
    Abstract: A sensor, such as a motion sensor and/or an occupancy sensor, a soft switch relay controller, or a power pack can significantly reduce the in-rush current and thereby extend the life of relays and other electrical components susceptible to damage caused by in-rush current or voltage surges. The sensor, soft switch relay controller, and/or power pack can reduce the in-rush current when enabling or disabling a light source.

  • Sensor with wireless device for controlling a light source
    Patent number: 10143066
    Abstract: A sensor, such as a motion sensor and/or an occupancy sensor, can include the capability of communicating wirelessly with a user device such that sensor settings can be adjusted via an application running on the user device. The sensor settings may determine when one or more light sources (e.g., a light fixture, a light bulb, a light emitting diode (LED), etc.) turn on and/or the amount of light produced by the one or more light sources.
