  BTC's lighting control products adopt Realtek's RTL8762CMF solution, which features excellent frequency configuration capabilities for the PWM (Pulse Width Modulation). It can meet the frequency requirements of different LED drivers.
 

RTL8762CMF provides high-frequency output to meet the requirements of various LED drivers


BTC was established in 1982 and entered the commercial LED lighting market with over a decade of experience in developing LED luminaires for various commercial and industrial applications. With the rapid advancement of LED technology in the modern lighting industry, effectively driving LED luminaires and controlling their brightness has become crucial. PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) technology has been widely adopted for this purpose. In this regard, Realtek's RTL8762CMF stands out with its exceptional frequency configuration capabilities for PWM. Compared to other solutions, it can achieve higher bandwidth frequency settings to meet the frequency requirements of different LED drivers.
 

The PWM output of RTL8762CMF has a high resolution and can continuously vary its frequency, avoiding issues where certain frequencies cannot be output. Some solutions, due to the limitations in their PWM calculation methods, are unable to achieve continuous frequency output, resulting in a reduced control accuracy. They also struggle to achieve fine-grained effect control in lighting changes. However, RTL8762CMF's PWM can output high-resolution continuous frequencies, enabling higher-resolution brightness and color temperature variations. This allows for more subtle light changes and smoother color transitions to be achieved.
 

Additionally, another notable feature of the RTL8762CMF is its multiple sets of PWM outputs, which enable control of multi-color LEDs and achieve various combinations of color temperature adjustments. Whether it's for indoor lighting, commercial lighting, or public spaces, the multiple sets of PWM outputs provide more choices and possibilities. In terms of hardware design, the I/O, ADC, and PWM output pins can be reconfigured through programming, making circuit design easier.
 

BTC's current development solution can be applied to various lighting fixtures such as courtyard lights, night lights, floor lamps, ceiling lights, as well as devices like electric fans and alarm clocks. It also offers a mobile app and a control command set, allowing for remote control of the devices and the ability for multiple phones to control a single device, among other functionalities.
 


 

The BLE network relay architecture is convenient for applications in large-scale venues, enhancing management efficiency and operational convenience



 

The BLE network relay architecture, developed by BTC, is a BLE data relay framework similar to Mesh. The advantage of this architecture lies in the fact that each node has the same firmware, eliminating the distinction between master and slave. Compared to traditional Mesh architectures, it is easier to set up. Additionally, since RTL8762CMF supports both the Central and Peripheral roles, this network architecture can be easily applied to the RTL8762CMF.
 

The application of the BLE network relay architecture is particularly valuable in large-scale venues. It allows for the simultaneous configuration of parameters for all lighting fixtures or simultaneously turning on or off all lighting fixtures, thereby enhancing management efficiency and operational convenience. The support provided by the RTL8762CMF makes the entire network architecture more flexible and easy to implement.
