Dimming with smooth brightness changes and excellent flicker performance. Configurable minimum dim level2
and adaptable dim curves2.
Programmable
- Fine-tune your control using FluxTool with LightShape3
- Programmable features vary per model and include:
- Dimming level
- Dimming curve
- Tunable White, using LightShape3
LIN200D models can control up to 200W (8A) of power in 2 LED outputs. LIN180D and LIN720D models can control up to 180W and 720W respectively in 4 LED outputs.
Suitable for use up to 50°C ambient temperature.
The eldoLED LINEARdrive DC range is designed for controlling constant voltage LED applications, such as LED tape used in cove lighting and architectural luminaires. The various products in the range can be used for controlling white light, Tunable White and RGBW colour. Supported dimming protocols include DALI-2, DMX, 0-10V and Casambi via LEDcode.
The LIN180D and LIN720D also have an integrated controller for defining and controlling simple shows. The housing is intended for independent use and includes a strain relief. Due to its integrated heatspreader, the driver can control up to 8A per LED string that is provided by an external power supply.
Family members include 200W models with 2 LED outputs, as well as 180W and 720W models with 4 LED outputs. The 200W DALI-2 models dim to 0.02%, ideal for hospitality applications such as guest rooms and theaters. All other models dim to 0.1%.
The family has been designed to meet the standards in Europe (CE, UKCA and ENEC), North America (UL Recognized) and India (BIS).

DALI full-colour (RGB/RGBW) dimmable LED drivers are advanced, addressable power supplies (typically 12V-48V DC) that allow precise digital control over brightness, color, and temperature for LED fixtures. They support DALI-1 or DALI-2 protocols for bidirectional communication, offering 0-100% flicker-free dimming, often with DT6/DT8 interface support, making them ideal for complex, smart lighting, and architectural applications.
Key Features and Specifications
Protocol: Compatible with DALI-2 (IEC 62386) for high-precision, addressable control of individual or grouped, or RGB/RGBW, fixtures.
Control Type: Supports both constant voltage (12V/24V/48V) for strip lights and constant current for specialized fixtures.
Dimming Performance: Offers smooth, flicker-free dimming from 0% to 100%, with some models capable of dimming down to 0.01%.
Output Capabilities: Multi-channel outputs (up to 4 channels for RGBW) designed for color-changing, Tunable White (1000K-10000K), and intensity management.
Durability: Often housed in metal, with IP65/IP67 ratings suitable for both indoor and outdoor, residential, and commercial applications.
Key Protection: Built-in thermal protection and management to ensure longevity.
Why Use DALI Drivers
Individual Addressing: Unlike traditional, non-addressable systems, DALI drivers allow for specific, unique control commands to be sent to each driver in a system.
Efficiency: Enables precise lighting control, reducing energy consumption and increasing the lifespan of the LED fixtures.
Bidirectional Communication: DALI-2 devices provide feedback on, and monitoring of, lighting circuits.
Versatile Dimming: Supports smooth, high-quality, professional-grade dimming.
eldoLED driver solutions bring quality of light to the most dramatic of public experiences as well as to the intimate spaces that paint our daily lives. A versatile selection of functionality, control compatibility, and form factors bring the enhancements of advanced driver technology to any indoor, outdoor, industrial, and horticultural designs.
