Application notes
Setting nominal average output current
with external resistor RS
The nominal average output current in the
LED(s) is determined by the value of the
external current sense resistor (RS) connected
between VIN and ISENSE and is given by:
IOUTnom = 0.1/RS [for RS>0.1]

average output current for several preferred
