LED detector heating

Nov 26, 2004 1 Replies

Hello, I am working with a 4.3 and 3.6um LEDs but i'm running into a problem, the detector is heating up. Is there a workable way to slow down the pulse rate of the LED driver? If so will it lower the temperature? Any thoughts would be great. Thanks, Mitch


lower the voltage to the LED's i assume your diodes maybe connected to a common neutral source? if so then place a diode in series. that will drop it by .6
