Was I?
Okay, this series looks quite confusing to me. First, 1/3 looks
"interesting" (would have to analyze it way more).
Second, 3/3... So we have a LED driver _and_ a regulator? So yes, the
chip driving a LED is usually ... voltage/current regulator. What is
second regulator doing there? Is that a common setup?
Best regards,
Pavel
