DESCRIPTION
KEY FEATURES
WWW .Microsemi .C OM
The LXMG1621 Direct DriveTM CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) Inverter Modules are specifically designed for driving two lamp LCD backlight displays. Similar to the LXMG1620, the LXMG1621 excels in applications where critical parameters include very wide range dimmability, high efficiency, and reliable fail-safe design in a small form factor. These 12 volt modules are specifically designed with desktop and industrial applications in mind. Unlike the LXMG1620 or any traditional dimming CCFL inverters, the LXMG1621 provides the designer a vastly superior display brightness range. 100:1+ brightness range is achievable with a standard LCD display (see Product Highlight). Our wide range dimming provides exceptional display readability at less than 1% of full brightness, allowing both power savings and low ambient light operating capability(i.e. "night readable"). Digital dimming provides flicker-free brightness control in any wide-range dimming application.
Incorporation of a video synchronization feature allows wide ratio dimming without the display disturbances and interference seen with competitive products. The modules are equipped with a dimming input that permits brightness control from an external potentiometer or DC voltage source. The resultant "burst drive" that energizes the lamp was designed specifically to ensure that no premature lamp degradation occurs (see the "How RangeMAX works" section). The module design is based on a new Direct Drive topology, which provides a number of cost and performance advantages. Microsemi's multiple lamp inverters include a built in connector array for the most common LCD lamp configurations. Other benefits of this new topology are fixed-frequency operation and secondaryside strike-voltage regulation. The LXMG1621 is fully customizable (electronically and mechanically) to specific customer requirements.

Figure 1 - Connectivity Configuration Examples These examples illustrate six typical LCD wiring configurations that are accommodated by Microsemi's unique connector array. Microsemi inverters have multiple lamp connector styles that are common to the industry, which are duplicated at both ends of the module. This permits over 14 variations of module mounting and interconnectivity configuration.

Always install two (2) lamps. Operating with only one lamp may overdrive lamp current at maximum brightness settings. 2. Verify lamp wiring before connecting lamps to the inverter module. Connecting both lamps to one of the two inverter output circuits will result in reduced brightness. The LXMG1621-01 / 02 / 03 module connectors are wired per industry standard. The lamp hot wires (high voltage wires) are always on pin 1 and / or 2, and the cold wire (low voltage wire) is always on pin 3 or 4. 3. The LXMG1621-04 uses the reverse pinout found in some panels. The lamp hot wires (high voltage wires) are on pins 2 and 3 and the cold (low voltage wire) is on pin 1.

LAMP VOLTAGE & LAMP CURRENT - BURST MODE OPERATION
WWW .Microsemi .C OM
Figure 3 - 50% Burst Duty Cycle
Figure 4 - 2% Burst Duty Cycle
Rather than using the traditional dimming technique of varying lamp current magnitude to adjust light output, RangeMAX inverters use a fixed lamp current value with a duty cycle control method. The lamp current burst width can be modulated from 100% (continuous lamp current) down to a 2% duty cycle, allowing the lamp to be dimmed to less than 1% of its full brightness. As can be seen in Trace 3 of Figure 5 photo at right, careful design consideration was given to controlling lamp start voltage to softly start current flow. This eliminates current overshoot that can result in premature cathode wear and reduce lamp life.

Integrated brightness control circuit includes a DC voltage to pulse width converter that minimizes system design work and system noise susceptibility. This provides a familiar and convenient interface while reducing the potential for externally induced noise, which can cause lamp flicker. * An on-board oscillator operates the inverter BURST rate about 95Hz, well beyond standard 50/60Hz video refresh rates where the eye can perceive pulsing light. * RangeMAX inverter modules are designed to operate with the burst frequency synchronized to the video frame rate. This provides operation with no visible display disturbances caused by beat frequencies between the lamps and video frame rates.

*
In applications with no access to a vertical sync, the inverter burst frequency can be allowed to "free run" at 95Hz. In this non-synchronous mode, minor display disturbances may be found under certain video conditions. This performance is acceptable for many applications, but synchronization must be used when no disturbance can be tolerated.
*
Separate feedback loops for lamp current and open circuit voltage regulation insure reliable strike under all operating conditions, automatic over-voltage prevention with broken or failed lamps, and accurate lamp current regulation.

The brightness control may be a simple 10k potentiometer or a voltage output DAC. A PWM signal from a microcontroller may also be used with a suitable filter such as shown in figure 8. * If synchronization to the video frame rate is desired, connect the vertical sync pulse from the system video controller to the appropriate VSYNC input. If no video synchronization is desired, connect VSYNC to ground. * If you need to turn the inverter ON/OFF remotely, connect a 3V or 5V logic signal to the SLEEP input. If remote ON/OFF is not needed, connect the SLEEP input to VIN or any other voltage greater than 2.2VDC. * Connect VHI to high voltage wire from the lamp. Connect VLO to the low voltage wire (wire with thinner insulation). If both lamp wires have heavy high voltage insulation, connect the longest wire to VLO. VLO is connected directly to ground (GND pin) on the inverter PCB. Always insure a good lamp return by using a wire. Do not rely on a chassis ground connection.

WIDER DIMMING APPLICATION
WWW .Microsemi .C OM
IOLAMP(mA)
The following application defines techniques capable of delivering dimming ranges in the 250:1 range. As is widely understood, these techniques will provide general capabilities and actual system performance will vary with panel design, CCFTs, ambient temperature and a number of other variables outside the control of the inverter. These methods can be used in conjunction with other techniques such as lamp heating and matching. Wide ratio (250:1) dimming can be accomplished using the Microsemi inverter in two ways:
7
0.7 .14 .070
-100mV
0V
2.5V
1. By varying the input voltage on the brightness pin as VBRT_ADJ(V) indicated in Figure 9. Caution must be exercised when applying negative voltage to the brightness control input. Figure 9 - Average Lamp Current vs. VBRITE Voltage (per Lamp) Applying more then -300mV to any inverter input will cause inverter malfunction (see Absolute Maximum Ratings). 2. By making a resistor value change on the module. Remove R61 for maximum dimming range or increase R61 value to desired minimum dim range setting (see figure 10). Care should be exercised since at a low enough dim setting the inverter will be unable to detect that the lamp has started and will initiate lamp strike (kickoff) voltage. This will result in Backside of Module lamp flicker. For repeatable low light levels the BRITE input DC supply must be a very clean stable voltage source, at low dim inputs. R63 R51 R60 If you plan to completely remove R61 it is recommended that R62 you ensure that a minimum voltage above zero remain on the R61 R31 BRITE input to prevent the above flicker problem. This U9 U7 Q10 minimum voltage may need to be adjusted for each individual inverter module. If you are using a pot to control the BRITE R57 R54 R53 input then a separate trim pot on the low side would accomplish Q11 T1 R48 the same goal. R89 C37 Both methods discussed will provide a lower duty cycle operation than is necessary in a 100:1 dimming application. Figure 10 - Locating The Resistor on the LXMG1621-XX Careful consideration should be made with regard to display quality at these dimming levels. At very low brightness levels, even very small amounts of noise on the VBRITE line can cause flicker on the display, so special care must be given to grounding, filtering, and shielding the inverter from the digital logic and clock signals.
