Output Power Calculation
By making the above assumptions for inductance and
peak current the output power can be determined by:
Operating frequency can be derived by:

drop
For pulsed operation, as in the maximum battery life
solution, no capacitors are required at the output to
the LED. For rectified operation, as in the maximum
brightness solution, a small value ceramic capacitor
is required, typically 2.2uF.
where
Generally an input capacitor is not required, but a
small ceramic capacitor may be added to aid EMC,
typically 470nF to 1uF.
TOFF ≅ 1.7µs (internally set by ZXSC300)
