National Semiconductor Corp. today announced the addition of WEBENCH LED Architect to its award-winning portfolio of online WEBENCH Designer tools. The first of its kind, WEBENCH LED Architect enables both novice and expert designers to perform real-time comparisons and optimize complex lighting systems for performance, size and cost in minutes.

To start a design, the designer enters desired light output (lumens) and adjusts the design with the unique WEBENCH Optimizer Dial, evaluating size, conversion efficiency and cost trade-offs. The designer can order components for prototyping, share the complete system with others, or easily print a complete project report including schematics, bill of materials (BOM) and performance characteristics.

Find out more about National’s WEBENCH LED Architect at these upcoming events:

* Strategies in Light Europe, Frankfurt, Germany – Sept. 27-29, 2010

* China Solid-State Lighting Conference, Shanghai, China – Oct. 14-16, 2010

“We are enabling creative designers to compare a hundred different topologies for a lighting system in a few minutes,” said Phil Gibson, vice president of Technical Sales Tools at National Semiconductor. “WEBENCH LED Architect frees their imagination, so they can deliver brilliant lighting designs at the lowest possible cost.”
