The following steps show how to determine the critical
Step 1: Let LED current = I
Step 2: From the LED datasheet, let V
Step 3: Let R3 = 100 kW
Step 4: Let V
Step 5: For I
Step 6: Now, V
Step 7: So, R2 = (V
Step 8: Then choose a standard value of R2 which is close
Step 9: Pick input voltage range. These circuits assume a
