Sense Resistor Selection

The maximum LED current is 1 A at 100% PWM duty and the corresponding VREF is 200 mV. By using Equation 33, the sense resistance is calculated as 200 mΩ. Note that the power consumption of the sense resistor is 200 mW, requiring enough margin of the resistor's power rating in selection.

Equation 11. R S E N S E = V R E F I L E D _ F S

In boost topology, CSENSE is required to achieve the IFD control. Using Equation 23, a 10-µF, 50-V X7R ceramic capacitor is chosen for CSENSE to suppress the ac magnitude of sense feedback less than 200 mV.

Equation 12. C S E N S E =     0.25 × I L ( m a x ) 200 m V × f S W
