Functional Description
1) Main Frequency (Lamp Operation Frequency)
A resistor RT and a capacitor CT determine the main frequency of
IC. The main frequency can be calculated as below equation:
critical factors.
1). Estimating Minimum Primary Voltage.
The minimum primary voltage is obtained from the value of the low
supply voltage.
2). Estimating Maximum Secondary Voltage.
The secondary is composed of a ballast capacitor, a voltage divide
capacitor and the lamp parasitic capacitor.
The voltage across the ballast capacitor can be calculated as below
equation:

2) Open Lamp Protection
Open lamp protection in the ignition time is provided through both
OVP and TIMER pin to ensure a rated voltage is achieved and a
required timing is satisfied.
If time that TIMER capacitor charges to 3V is long than the CCFL
ignition time, it can prevent over-operating by protection circuit.
3) Error Amplifier
The CCFL current is regulated through the error amplifier. Error
amplifier output (CMP) voltage and ramp wave (CT) make the
PWM pulses. The non-inverting reference is at 2.5V nominal.
4) OVP
When the output voltage reaches the threshold, it commands the
PWM controller to maintain the current driving level. This ensures
that output gets sufficient striking voltage while operating the power
transformer safely. The OVP threshold is set at 2V nominal.
5) On/Off Function
The Enable pin provides the function to turn on and off the output
without shut down the supply voltage. The threshold of the Enable is
set at 2.0V.
6) Soft-start
The soft-start function is provided with a capacitor connected to SST
pin. It provides a rate of rise for the pulse width where switches are
turned on. A 2.2 capacitor connected on the SST pin can set a 0.4
second period for striking the lamp.
7) Burst-mode Dimming
The burst-mode frequency is determined by a capacitor connected to
LCT pin.
The frequency can be calculated by:
