Sun, B. (author), Fan, Xuejun (author), Ye, H. (author), Fan, Jiajie (author), Qian, Cheng (author), van Driel, W.D. (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author)In this paper, an integrated LED lamp with an electrolytic capacitor-free driver is considered to study the coupling effects of both LED and driver's degradations on lamp's lifetime. An electrolytic capacitor-less buck-boost driver is used. The physics of failure (PoF) based electronic thermal simulation is carried out to simulate the lamp's...journal article 2017
