By reducing the size of the input capacitor required and applying an inductor current regulating scheme, in-rush current is managed to be less than 1.5 A using the TI TPS92560. By limiting the amount of in-rush current drawn from the electronic transformer, not only the life time of the transformer is improved, but also the possibility of an electronic transformer driving several MR-16 LED bulbs in parallel instead of an usual 1:1 (one electronic transformer to one MR-16 bulb) driving limitation.
