Ever encountered “unruly” lights? When dimming, it always feels like one step is too bright, two steps too dim? Trying to create the perfect ambiance, but it never quite hits the mark?

This may stem from low dimming precision. The higher the precision, the finer the light adjustment.

What is Dimming Precision?

Definition: The accuracy of a dimming device in controlling light brightness during adjustment.

Core elements: Minimum brightness control unit / Richness of adjustment levels / Stability and uniformity of dimming.

Minimum brightness control unit: High-precision devices enable smaller brightness increments. Suretron’s smart dimming power supplies support 0.1% level adjustment, ensuring precision in ultra-fine brightness ranges.

Richness of adjustment levels: More levels mean higher precision. 8-bit dimming (2⁸=256 levels) divides brightness from 0% to 100% into 256 steps. Suretron’s DALI-2 and DMX512 dimming power supplies both support 256-level adjustment.

Stability & uniformity: High-precision dimming requires smooth, stable adjustment without flickering, jumps, or uneven brightness.

Impact of Low Dimming Precision

Brightness jumps: Causes lights to flicker between bright and dim, straining eyes and reducing comfort.

Flicker risks: Low-precision power supplies may use low-frequency dimming (cost-cutting), causing imperceptible flicker. Prolonged exposure leads to dizziness, dry eyes, etc.

Poor scene adaptability: Fails to precisely meet dimming needs of different scenarios.

Factors Affecting Dimming Precision

Benefits of High Dimming Precision

Higher precision enables finer brightness adjustment to meet diverse scenario needs:

Commercial spaces: Precisely restores true colors of displayed items.

Home environments: Paired with smart systems, auto-switches modes based on daily schedules.

Medical lighting: Delivers flicker-free, high-precision illumination.
