surface mount - SMD LED: How to calculate optical power (in mW) from luminous intensity (in mcd)?



I chose an LED for my application but I need optical power, in mW.


In the data sheet, luminous intensity is shown in mcd but I did not find formulas for calculation although there are graphs, etc.


Where luminous intensity is 180 mcd and viewing angle 120°, etc.


Please provide any necessary formulae for my case.


I could not find the exact formula on this website.

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
