Electric light sources are generally classified into three categories: incandescent lamps (filament-based), fluorescent lamps (discharge-based emitting UV), and LEDs (semiconductor-based).
While halogen lamps--a type of incandescent source--are common in automotive applications, scientific and industrial fields often require specialized discharge lamps. These include hollow cathode lamps, xenon flash lamps, and deuterium lamps, which are essential for high-precision analyzers and research instruments.
In recent years, LED and OLED technologies have gained prominence due to their low heat emission and long operational life, expanding from general lighting to precision industrial applications.
Matsusada Precision provides specialized high-voltage power supplies designed for these demanding light sources. The Hxep series, a compact high-voltage power supply module, is specifically engineered for xenon flash lamps. It features built-in outputs for both the main discharge and the trigger electrode, simplifying the integration of flash lamp systems.
Beyond specialized lamp drivers, our general-purpose DC power supplies are widely used in the development and manufacturing testing of LEDs. Additionally, our X-ray inspection systems offer an effective solution for the non-destructive analysis of internal lamp structures and connections.
