Constant current power supply

LED light strips usually require an appropriate power supply or transformer to provide the required voltage and current.
The following are common transformer types for LED light strips:
Constant Voltage Power Supply:
This type of transformer provides a constant output voltage, usually 12 volts (V) or 24 volts (V). LED strip lights are usually constant voltage designs, so they require a stable voltage to operate


Constant voltage power supply

Constant Current Power Supply:
Some LED strips require a constant current to ensure their brightness and color remain consistent. A constant current power supply provides a constant current output regardless of changes in input voltage.
 
Dimmable Power Supply:
This type of transformer allows the user to adjust the brightness of the LED strip by reducing or increasing the output voltage or current. They are often used with dimmer switches or dimmer controllers.

 
Driver (LED Driver):
An LED driver is a power supply device specially designed for LED light strips and usually provides a stable current output to ensure reliable operation of the LED. They can be constant current or constant voltage types.
 
Direct Line Voltage:
Some LED strips are designed to be connected directly to the mains power supply, without the need for additional power supplies or transformers. These light strips often require versions that meet specific voltage requirements.
 
Wireless Power Supply:
These transformers allow powering LED strips via wireless technology, often using electromagnetic resonance or radio frequency technology.
 

Choosing the right transformer type for your LED light strip depends on the design requirements of the LED light strip, as well as your application scenario and preferences. Make sure you choose the right type of transformer to ensure your LED strips work properly and safely
