The second video looking into switching current regulation, specifically utilising a comparator with hysteresis on the input, aka: direct current control. After proving the concept we then try using the circuit to power an LED and calculate the efficiency. Finally I do a quick demo of driving a speaker with this circuit, not a good idea but a nice showcase of its responsiveness
