KEY FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
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.
The LXMG1643-12-62 inverter is
intended for panel assemblies with
individual lamp connections, or where
lamps are spaced apart from each other.
The LXMG1643-12-61 inverter should be
used for panel applications where lamp
pairs are in close proximity and share a
common return (low side) wire.
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.

The LXMG1643-12-62 is a Quad 6W
Output Direct Drive™ CCFL (Cold
Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) Inverter
Module specifically designed for driving
LCD backlight lamps. It is ideal for
driving typical 12.1” to 18.1” TFT panels.
LXMG1643 modules provide the
designer with a vastly superior display
brightness range then typical with analog
(amplitude control) dimming.
The inverter includes a dimming input
that permits brightness control from either
a DC voltage source or a PWM signal or
external Potentiometer. The maximum
output current is externally programmable
over a range of 5 to 8mA in 1mA steps to
allow the inverter to properly match to a
wide array of LCD panel lamp current
specifications.

TYPICAL APPLICATION
0.45V
to 2.0V
V IN1
BRITE
The brightness control may be a voltage output DAC or
other voltage source, a digital pot or 20K manual pot. The
inverter contains an internal 10K pull-up to 3V to bias the
pot add a 1.8K resistor to set the lower threshold voltage.
A 3.3V Logic Level PWM signal from a micro-controller
may also be used as shown in Figure 1A.
ƒ
If you need to turn the inverter ON/OFF remotely, connect
to TTL logic signal to the SLEEP input.
ƒ
Connect VHI to high voltage wire from the lamp. Connect
VLO to the low voltage wire (wire with thinner insulation).
Never connect VLO to circuit ground as this will defeat
lamp current regulation. If both lamp wires have heavy
high voltage insulation, connect the longest wire to VLO.
This wire is typically white.
ƒ
Use the SET1 and SET2 (see Figure 2) inputs to select the
desired maximum output current. Using these two pins in
combination allows the inverter to match a wide variety of
panels from different manufactures. Generally the best
lamp lifetime correlates with driving the CCFL at the
manufactures nominal current setting. However the SET1
and SET2 inputs 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.
ƒ
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. In
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 users
responsibility since not all lamps are designed to be
overdriven.
ƒ
The inverter has a built in fault timeout function. If the
output return is open (lamp disconnected or broken) or
shorted the inverter will attempt to strike the lamp for
several seconds. After about a second without success the
inverter will shutdown. In order to restart the inverter it is
necessary to toggle the sleep input or cycle the VIN1 input
supply. In the timeout shutdown mode input drain current
will be about 8mA.
