DESCRIPTION LXM1598-01 CCFL (cold cathode florescent lamp) Inverter Modules are specifically designed for driving LCD back light lamps in applications where dimmability, ultrahigh efficiency, high light output, low noise emissions, reliable fail safe design, and small form factors are critical parameters. Both monochrome and color displays are supported. The modules convert unregulated DC voltage from the system battery or AC adapter directly to high-frequency, highvoltage sine waves required to ignite and operate CCFL lamps. The module design is based on a proprietary Linfinity IC that provides important new performance advances. Remarkable improvements in efficiency and RF emissions result from its single stage resonant inverter featuring a patent pending Current Synchronous, Zero Voltage Switching (CS-ZVS) topology. CS-ZVS produces nearly pure sine wave currents in the lamp enabling maximum light delivery while reducing both conducted and radiated noise. This topology simultaneously performs three tasks consisting of line voltage regulation, lamp current regulation, and lamp dimming in a single power stage made up of one pair of low loss FET's. The FET's drive an LC resonant circuit that feeds the primary of a high voltage transformer with a sinusoidal voltage. Required L and C values in the resonant circuit are such that very low loss components can be used to obtain higher electrical efficiency than is possible with previous topologies. The half bridge LXM1598-01 is optimized to efficiently operate with up to 4 watt lamps over the full 10V to 14V input voltage range. The modules are equipped with a dimming input that permits full range brightness control from an external potentiometer, and a sleep input that reduces module power to a few microwatts in shut down mode. All modules feature output open and short circuit protection.

EFFICIENCY MEASUREMENT SETUP INTRODUCTION The best method for evaluating high voltage, high frequency inverters is by directly measuring light output versus power input. This method is highly recommended when evaluating inverter modules. The following sections outline the recommended method for testing these modules. EQUIPMENT REQUIRED 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) Two DVM's with 0.1% or better accuracy. A lab power supply. (0 - 20V, 0 - 2A) The target notebook or LCD panel. A Tektronix J1803 Luminance Head. A Tektronix J17 Luminance Color Photometer. A non-contact infrared temperature sensor (i.e. Fluke 80T-IR) with a mV meter. the end of the 30 minute period read the light output in cd/m 2 (1 cd/m2 = 1 Nit), as well as input voltage and current. Typical applications require about 70 to 100 Nits out of the screen. With the temperature probe record the temperature rises of critical components such as the high voltage transformer and the inductor. The light output efficiency of the module can be calculated by the following equation: Eff = Light Output (in Nits) VIN (DC) * IIN (DC) = Nits Watt
MEASUREMENT SETUP Figure 2 shows the connection diagram for light output measurements. The photometer luminance head (J1803) is positioned directly in the center of the LCD screen. For best results open an application such as the Paintbrush program and choose the maximized view so that the entire screen is "white". After application of the power to the CCFL wait at least 30 minutes to allow for the lamp and light output to stabilize. At
For competitive evaluation with another module from Linfinity or another manufacturer repeat the above steps for the second module. After taking the data on the second module, compare the temperature rises on the transformer and inductors. The main figure of merit comparison is done between the two Eff numbers as follows: Percent More Efficient = Eff 1 - Eff2 * 100 Eff2
The result of the above shows how much more efficient module #1 is than module #2.
