AB - This paper presents a dynamic photo-electro-thermal theory for LED systems. In addition to photometric, electrical and thermal aspects, this theory incorporates the time domain into the generalized equations. A dynamic model for a general LED system is developed for system analysis. This theory highlights the fact that the luminous output of an LED system will decrease with time from the initial operation to the steady-state due to the rising temperature of the heatsink and the LED devices. The essential thermal time constants involved in the LED systems are explained. The time factor is critical in understanding how much the luminous output will decrease with time and is essential to the optimal designs of LED systems that are operated continuously (e.g general lighting) or momentarily (e.g. traffic lights). Experiments on several LED systems at different time frames have been conducted and the practical measurements confirm the validity of this theory. © 2010 IEEE.
