NXP: Bringing smart lighting to the smart lighting

Based on the maturity of technology and the reduction of cost, the LED lighting market is being launched on a large scale. At present, LED lighting products are mainly used in municipal, commercial, supermarket and other engineering channels, and relatively few applications in the home market. As the price of LED products is gradually accepted by the market, the continuous integration of emerging technologies is perfect, and it is predicted that LED lighting will usher in a real outbreak in 2014-2015. Especially since January 1, 2014, after the US government announced a comprehensive “ban”, the North American market is gradually becoming a new industry growth hotspot. The demand for LED lighting is booming, and LED lighting products are beginning to enter the homes of ordinary people.

The market demand is growing rapidly and the competition is more intense. This has also led to the opening of price wars. Emerging LED chips and packaging manufacturers are actively deploying LED light source market. Traditional lighting giants rely on brand and channel advantages to rapidly transform LED lighting, more small and medium LED lighting companies also use the network, engineering channels and physical stores to expand their business. In 2014, the LED lighting industry has started a full-scale battle. So which of the new rounds of competition is the main battlefield of the LED lighting industry? In this regard, let's take a look at the interpretation of NXP.

In fact, the real market potential of LED lighting has not been fully explored. Many market segments are worth looking forward to. The launch of LED intelligent lighting will be an important catalyst. Intelligent lighting refers to the use of modern electronic technology, automatic control technology, computer technology and communication network and assists in the automatic control of electrical lighting by other means, reducing the lighting system power consumption and other use costs while providing a suitable lighting environment. According to statistics, the scale of China's smart lighting market is expected to reach 200 billion US dollars in the next five years. The emerging LED intelligent lighting is another key point in the LED general lighting market, and it is also an important development direction, or this is also a main battlefield.


NXP Senior Product Application Director Engineer Chen Ertai

Chen Ertai, senior engineer application engineer of NXP, said: The development of intelligent lighting provides a better opportunity to get rid of the competition of low-end LED manufacturers to cut prices. LED intelligent lighting will become a breakthrough in the development of LED industry. And with the gradual hotening of the smart home market, the market for LED intelligent lighting is gradually opening up, especially in the young groups pursuing fashion and quality of life, the market prospect is huge. NXP is also very optimistic about this market prospect and has a positive layout.

Chen Ertai also stressed that LED intelligent lighting often has the function of remote control and dimming color. It combines wireless communication technology, wired communication technology, intelligent dimmable LED driver, wireless receiver, infrared receiver, ambient light sensor and so on. Kind of technology. NXP has deep technical accumulation in these areas, and has launched a number of intelligent lighting solutions, including IoT gateway, "soft dimming" adjustable white light, low-cost "changeable CCT" adjustable white light module, LED lamp controllers based on energy harvesting technology, high-performance LED IC solutions for general lighting equipment and LightPRO intelligent lighting tool kits, etc., were also exhibited at the Guangzhou Lighting Exhibition.

NXP GreenChip supports a complete intelligent LED lighting solution. The portfolio includes high-efficiency, low standby power converters, CFL, LED (SSL) and fluorescent tube drivers as well as high-performance, low-power IEEE802.15.4 compatible single-chip transceivers and microcontrollers. The solution features compact size, low cost, energy-efficient lighting and low standby power consumption, which opens up new lighting control and energy management methods. NXP's energy-efficient LED lighting and intelligent lighting connectivity solutions cover a wide range of LED applications, covering a full range of dimmable and non-dimmable LED lighting solutions, including the newly released SSL5301 digital LEDs. Optical device, SMPS controller ICMR16 (SSL3401) designed for hotel and commercial lighting. Of particular note are LED lamp controllers based on energy harvesting technology and the LightPRO module tool suite that integrates LED lighting with wireless smart lighting technology.

According to Chen Ertai, in order to cope with the fierce competition in the market, it is not wise to rely on oneself to fight alone. The LED lamp controller based on energy harvesting technology introduced by NXP is combined with German Einsen ( Developed in collaboration with EnOcean, it has the powerful advantage of remotely controlled luminaires without the need for batteries. The mechanical energy acquisition module can convert mechanical energy (such as the mechanical energy of the finger pressing switch) into electrical energy, and supply the module to work. It can be applied to products such as wireless passive switches, and has great application prospects in intelligent lighting control. The switch uses NXP's JN5161 wireless microcontroller, and can also use NXP's NFC advantage technology to achieve simple and secure networking, while supporting the switch and dimming functions, and supports ZigBee and JenNet-IP protocol networking.

NXP's strong LightPRO development kit includes LightPRO smart light bulbs, NXP LighTInPRO IOT gateways, LightPRO modules, and LightPRO remote controls to help intelligent lighting system developers quickly design and accelerate time-to-market. And LightPRO modules can be quickly integrated into existing hardware, such as LED PWM dimming drivers, sensors, remote controls and other modules, and can help design unique application control software, control lighting systems, cloud service design and so on.

Chen Ertai said that it is an important trend to integrate LED lighting with wireless intelligent lighting technology. "Smart Connected Lighting" is revolutionizing the traditional industry of lighting. Especially under the influence of technologies such as the Internet, the Internet of Things and mobile internet, lighting has already broken through the limitations of lighting and become more "smart". As the largest manufacturer of NFC technology, NXP has not only accumulated rich experience in other areas of wireless communication technology in the field of NFC technology, but also developed many unique and unique technologies and integrated them into LED lighting control. NXP's Smart Connected Lighting Solution brings LED lighting and intelligent control technology and applications to a whole new level and field, innovatively interconnecting people, space and devices to create extraordinary experiences and value for people. And better energy saving results.

NXP Semiconductors is providing high-performance intelligent LED lighting solutions with its leading RF, analog, power management, interface, security and digital processing expertise to drive the rapid development of smart lighting.
