+These are Kicad files for a 450 mA constant current LED driver built around
+the LM3409HV, based mostly on the sample schematic in the TI datasheet.
+
+It is designed for 48 volts in and 450 mA CC out, to drive Cree's 16.7 watt
+LEDs with Vf of 37 volts.
+
+The PCB measures about 34x32 mm.
+
+More concrete and interesting details to follow as I send the boards to
+manufacture, build them up, find the glaring errors I'm too blind to see,
+and let the magic smoke out of some components 😜
