12V 4W CCFL Programmable Inverter Module

DESCRI PTI O N
The
LXM1617-12-4x
is
a
Single
Output 4W Direct Drive CCFL (Cold
Cathode
Fluorescent
Lamp)
Inverter
Module specifically designed for driving
LCD backlight lamps.
It is ideal for
driving typical 8.4” to 12.1” TFT panels.
LXM1617
modules
provide
the
designer with a vastly superior display
brightness range. This brightness range is
achievable with virtually any LCD display.
The
maximum
output
current
is
externally programmable over a range of 5
to 6.5mA in 0.5mA steps to allow the
inverter to properly match to a wide array
of LCD panel lamp current specifications.
The modules include a dimming input that
permits brightness control from a dc
voltage source, a PWM signal or an
external potentiometer.
RangeMAX
Digital
Dimming
Technique provides flicker-free brightness
control in any wide range typically (50:1+)
dimming application.
The
resultant
“burst
drive”
that
energizes
the
lamp
was
designed
specifically to ensure that no premature
lamp degradation occurs, while allowing
significant power savings at lower dim
levels.
The modules convert DC voltage from
the system battery or AC adapter directly
to high frequency, high-voltage waves
required to ignite and operate CCFL
lamps. A 5V input inverter is also
available (LXM1617-05-4x).
The modules design is based on
Microsemi’s
new
LX1689
backlight
controller, which provides a number of
cost and performance advantages due to
the controller’s high level of integration.
Other benefits of this new topology
are
stable
fixed-frequency
operation,
secondary-side strike-voltage regulation
and both open/shorted lamp protection
with fault timeout.
