• Simplified Circuit operation
MOSFET Q is turned on current ramps up through inductor and LED string
MOSFET Q is turned on, current ramps up through inductor and LED string
MOSFET Q is turned off and the freewheeling diode D conducts the current
the current through the inductor and LED string
Any reverse recover current from diode will flow into the MOSFET.
