PRODUCTION DATA.
Given the number of series LEDs (N), the forward voltage (VLED) and dynamic resistance (rLED) for a single LED, solve for the nominal output voltage (VO) and the nominal LED string dynamic resistance (rD):
Solve for the ideal nominal duty cycle (D):
Buck:
Boost:
Buck-Boost:
Using the same equations, find the minimum duty cycle (DMIN) using maximum input voltage (VIN-MAX) and the maximum duty cycle (DMAX) using the minimum input voltage (VIN-MIN). Also, remember that D' = 1 - D.
