← TechnologyWhich outcome dramatically shortens LED array lifespan when constant-current drivers fail to compensate for thermally-induced voltage changes?
A)Thermal runaway initiates degradation✓
B)Reduced luminous efficacy appears
C)Chromaticity coordinates visibly shift
D)Reverse voltage threshold increases
💡 Explanation
Thermal mismatch leads to current hogging, meaning hotter LEDs draw more current exacerbating their heat; because positive feedback dominates, the Thermal runaway mechanism begins, resulting in extreme junction temperatures and degradation; therefore, lifespan decreases rather than efficacy or chromaticity changes.
