Matter® Compatible LED Drivers - The MEAN WELL XLC-MA Series
The XLC-MA, a wirelessly controlled dimmable LED driver for smart buildings and offices, joins the MEAN WELL XLC family.
The MEAN WELL XLC-MA is a flicker-free LED driver featuring wireless communication designed to meet the interoperability requirements of the Matter communications protocol standard. Using the Matter communications protocol, the XLC-MA can be integrated into almost any Matter-compatible control for industrial, commercial or office installation, enabling control from some of the more popular smart automation brands, such as Apple, Google, Amazon, and many more.

The XLC-MA range offers 25W, 40W, and 60W options, each with 12V, 24V, and 48V outputs. Constant current versions are also available with the H type, offering users a range of adjustable currents via dipswitch control.
Known for their flicker-free capabilities, standard constant voltage models offer users dimming down to 0.1%, whereas constant current H-type gives users a slightly higher minimum dimming level of 0.5%. The XLC-MA series flicker-free rating is <1 PstLM and an SVM <0.4.

Similar to the XLC series, the XLC-MA features a plastic body housing designed for indoor applications with air-convection cooling. This LED driver's operating temperature range is 25°C to 90°C and features built-in over-temperature, over-voltage, overload, and short-circuit protections. The XLC-MA series can be implemented as a built-in integrated LED driver with the XLC-MA variation, whilst the XLC-MAS variation operates as an independent LED power source. Both come with standard options for with and without strain relief.
The XLC-MA series wireless communication feature is enabled by the built-in Bluetooth antenna, which uses the Bluetooth broadcast function to communicate with Matter wireless control devices.
