Default Meanwell LPF Series Dimming Solved

Hi All,

I had bought a pair of Meanwell LPF series drivers for my project. However i soon found out these could not be dimmed using the conventional ways used to dim the popular ELN series drivers.

After much head banging and some help from Fungus on the Arduino forum we found a solution that works great!

You can use an Arduino to output the 0-5V PWM signal and the circuit turns it into 0-10V needed for the LPF series driver.



I hope this may help some of you and prevent the pure frustration i experienced!!!
