Product Highlights

Application Specific for Lighting

Integrated controller drivers, integrated power management units with integrated drivers, high voltage start up and regulators, all these ICs are 600V rated in order to efficiently and cost effectively drive Power MOSFETs. (More...)

LED Drivers for backlighting of LCD panels

Monolithic LED drivers deliver compact solutions for backlighting of medium to large LCD panels and for general lighting. (More...)

Transistors

ST’s transistors are used in a large variety of applications such as motor control, SMPS, electronic ignition, welding equipment, horizontal deflection, light dimmers and induction cooking. (More...)

ST7 8-bit Microcontroller

This growing family of 8-bit microcontrollers has the flexibility of Flash programming, a de-facto standard core architecture and a complete range of products and development tools to suit your budget. (More...)

Bipolar Transistors

Due to their special structure, the BULXXXED devices have an intrinsic ruggedness which enables the transistor to withstand a high collector current level during breakdown conditions without using the transil protection usually necessary in typical converters for lamp ballasts. (More...)

IGBT

Application specific IGBTs have been designed for light dimming and pre-heating ballast applications. All three devices belong to the “S” family that is optimized to achieve minimum on-voltage drop for low frequency applications (freq < 1kHz). (More...)
