3.3V 2.2W CCFL Programmable Inverter Module
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 2.7K 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.

in combination allows the inverter to match a wide variety

leaving them open or grounding them is all that is needed to
set the output current, they can also be actively set. Using a
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 the peak output current, using this technique the
effective dim ratio can be increased. 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 as not all lamps are
designed to be overdriven.
