24、trical Manufacturers Association Foreword A NEMA working group formed by a compilation of the Lighting, Lighting Controls, and Luminaire Sections has prepared this standard, Temporal Light Artifacts: Test Methods and Guidance for Acceptance Criteria. This standard provides measurement methods for me

25、trics that address temporal light artifacts (TLA) for light sources, as well as measurement methods for leading-edge phase cut dimmers. It provides initial broad guidelines for limits on these metrics. Inquiries, comments, and proposed or recommended revisions should be submitted to: Senior Technica

26、l Director, Operations National Electrical Manufacturers Association 1300 North 17 th Street, Suite 900 Rosslyn, Virginia 22209 Section approval of the standard does not necessarily imply that all section members voted for its approval or participated in its development. At the time the standard was

27、 approved, the Lighting Controls, Light Source and Luminaire sections were composed of the following members: Acuity Brands, Inc. Appleton Group Atlas Lighting Products, Inc.

Intense Lighting LEDVANCE LLC Legrand/Pass negative jitter is the variation in times between negative leading edges. Jitter sh

29、ould typically be observed over many hundreds of cycles, and the highest observed jitter value is used. Jitter does not need to be evenly distributed and centered on the firing angle setting. For example, 999 cycles where the firing edge is perfectly reproduced followed by a single edge that is 100s late = 100s jitter.
