The use of LED based luminaires is a tendency for both indoor and street lighting, due to its high durability and efficiency. Despite these desirable features propel the use of LEDs on lighting systems, the lifespan of its drivers can be lower than the LED itself. Such drivers are usually based on topologies that make use of electrolytic capacitors, which present low durability, mainly in high temperatures. Therefore, this work proposes a LED luminaire for street lighting based on modular drivers. This approach intends to increase the lifetime of the drivers, as well as maintain the luminaire in operation even with one or more modules failure. The design of the electronic drivers and the technique used for the mathematical modeling of the converters are presented. Furthermore, the obtained experimental results from a prototype with rated power of 50W (two modules with rated power of 25W each one) are presented.
