12V Dual 6W Programmable CCFL Inverter Module
The brightness control may be a voltage output DAC or
other voltage source, a digital pot or 500k manual
potentiometer. The inverter contains an internal 278k pull-
up to 3V to provide bias for the pot. A PWM logic level
signal (figure 1A) may be used up to 5V; however the
inverter will reach maximum current at less than 100%
duty cycle. This can be calculated as approximately 2V
divided by the logic high voltage level; with 3.3V logic
level this corresponds to about 60% duty cycle for
maximum lamp current.
If you need to turn the inverter ON/OFF remotely, connect

high voltage insulation, connect the longest wire to V
This wire is typically white.

desired maximum output current. Using these two pins in
combination allows the inverter to match a wide variety of
panels from different manufacturers. Generally the best
lamp lifetime correlates with driving the CCFL at the
manufacturer’s nominal current setting.
SET
adjust the current to the maximum allowable output current
to increase panel brightness at the expense of some
reduced lamp life.
Although the SET pins are designed such that just leaving
them open or grounding them is all that is needed to set the
output current, they can also be actively set. Using a open
collector or open drain logic signal will allow you to
reduce the lamp current for situations where greater dim
range is required, as an example in nighttime situations.
Since the dim ratio is a factor of both the burst duty cycle
and the peak output current, using this technique the
effective dim ratio can be increased greater than the burst
duty cycle alone. Conversely the SET inputs could be used
to overdrive the lamp temporarily to facilitate faster lamp
warm up at initial lamp turn on. Of course any possible
degradation on lamp life from such practices is the user’s
responsibility since not all lamps are designed to be
overdriven.
The inverter has a built in fault timeout function. If either
or both outputs are open (lamp disconnected or broken) the
inverter will attempt to strike for about a 1.5 seconds and
then shutdown for safety purposes. In order to restart the
inverter it is necessary to toggle the sleep input or cycle the
