Important notes
  • Confirm series or parallel topology, manufacturer voltage windows, thermal data, dimming behavior, and connector ratings.
  • This calculator provides planning support only and is not an installation approval or certification.

Formulas

  • Series wiring keeps the current requirement at one luminaire current and multiplies the forward-voltage window by quantity.
  • Parallel wiring multiplies the current requirement by quantity and keeps the forward-voltage window at one luminaire.
  • \(\displaystyle \mathrm{Compatible} = I_{\mathrm{driver}} = I_{\mathrm{required}} \land V_{\mathrm{driver\,window}} \supseteq V_{\mathrm{load\,window}}\)

Compare a constant-current driver against series or parallel luminaire current and forward-voltage requirements.

Constant-current Driver Matching Calculator is a planning aid. Keep the target source, product data, measurement method, and project assumptions with the result. Confirm compliance, installation, certification, and safety decisions with the responsible professional.
