BATTERY INPUT DC CURRENT LIMIT 
 has an optional programmable input dc current 
limit that limits the maximum battery current used over all con-
ditions. This feature allows higher LED currents to be used in a 
system with significant variation in LED forward voltage (V
F
) and 
supply battery voltage without the risk of exceeding the current 
allocated to the flash. To enable the input dc current limit, set 
the IL_DC_EN bit (Bit 0) in Register 0x03. To set the input dc 
current limit, use the IL_DC bits (Bits[3:1]) in Register 0x03 
(see Table 10).

During startup of the flash, if the battery current does not 
exceed the dc current limit, the LED1 and LED2 currents are  
set to the values of the I_FL1 and I_FL2 bits in Register 0x06 
and Register 0x09, respectively.  
If the battery current exceeds the programmed dc current limit 
on startup, the LED current does not increase further. The dc 
current limit flag is set in the fault information register (Bit 0  
of Register 0x0C). The FL_I_FL1 bits in Register 0x0D and the 
FL_I_FL2 bits in Register 0x0E are set to the actual LED current 
values and are available for readback.
