30Chapter 1 NOTE: Please pay attention to the fellowing: *1. The inverter can work in 7.5V input voltage (continuous), but 7.5V electronic characteristic will not be care. (Note: the display must be normal and can not glitter or become dark.) *2. Limited lamp maximum current by DAC_BRIC signal: When DAC_BRIG voltage is 0V and INV_PWM enables (100%), lamp has max. current. When DAC_BRIG voltage is 3.3V and INV_PWM enables (100%), lamp has min. current. When add 1V DAC, the 100% Lamp current will decrease 0.5mA. DAC_BRIG signal comes from system chipset with internal resistance of 3K *3. Inverter operating frequency should be within specification (45~65kHz) at max. and min. brightness load. *4. INV_PWM enable implies INV_PWM signal is High level (On duty cycle is 100%). It is a square wave of 150Hz to adjust backlight brightness that is a function of PWM duty cycle. Backlight brightness is maximum value under INV_PWM at 100% and brightness is minimum under INV_PWM at 30%. *5.The system interface signals belong to 3.3V. *6. Please make sure open lamp output voltage should be within starting voltage specification. *7. Inverter should pass human body safety test. *8. Inverter should be no smoking by any component open/short test. *9. Transformer voltage stress should not be over 85% under any condition. (turn on overshoot transient and line transient.) *10. Audio noise should be less than 36dB at 10cm distance. . 15 Turn off voltage (Low side)Voff -- -- 150Vp- PV PWM=30% 16 Voltage Rise time (Low side)Trise -- -- 300us us PWM=30% 17 Voltage fall time (Low side)Tfall -- -- 300us us PWM=30% Electrical specification No .SymbolMin.Ty p .Max.UnitComment 1 V oper* -- 650 -- Vrms Lamp operating voltage (650+/-50) Il 6.2 6.5 6.8 mArms DAC_BRIG: 0V, PWM:100% Il 3.07 3.3 3.6 mArms DAC_BRIG: 0V, PWM:30% Il 5.7 6.0 6.3 mArms DAC_BRIG: 0V, PWM:100% Il 2.7 3.0 3.3 mArms DAC_BRIG: 0V, PWM:30% F 455565kHz η80% -- -- -- Electrical Characteristics No .ParameterSymbolMin.Ty p .Max.UnitComment Ω
