5V 6W CCFL Programmable Inverter Module
The brightness control may be a voltage output DAC or other
voltage source, a digital pot or 500K manual pot. The inverter
contains an internal 215K pull-up to 3V to bias the pot, if
desired; add a resistor to set the lower threshold voltage above
the absolute minimum dim level capability. 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.

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 manufacture’s
nominal current setting. However the SET
allow the user the flexibility to 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 an 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.
conjunction with a light sensor or other timer the panel could
be set to higher brightness (maximum output current) for
daytime illumination and lower brightness (minimum or
typical output current) at nighttime. 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 the output
is open (lamp disconnected or broken) or shorted the inverter
will attempt to strike the lamp up to about one second, after
which (without success) the inverter will shutdown, in this
mode the inverter will draw about 8mA from V
