FEATURES  
DESCRIPTION  
The LT®1182/LT1183 are dual current mode switching  
regulators that provide the control function for Cold Cath-  
odeFluorescentLighting(CCFL)andLiquidCrystalDisplay  
(LCD) Contrast. The LT1184/LT1184F provide only the  
CCFLfunction.TheICsincludehighcurrent,highefficiency  
switches, an oscillator, a reference, output drive logic,  
control blocks and protection circuitry. The LT1182 per-  
mits positive or negative voltage LCD contrast operation.  
The LT1183 permits unipolar contrast operation and pins  
out an internal reference. The LT1182/LT1183 support

DESCRIPTION  
LT1184/LT1184F pin out the reference for simplified pro-  
current. An active low shutdown pin typically reduces total  
supply current to 35µA for standby operation. A 200kHz  
switching frequency minimizes the size of required mag-  
netic components. The use of current mode switching  
techniques with cycle-by-cycle limiting gives high reliabil-  
ity and simple loop frequency compensation. The LT1182/  
LT1183/LT1184/LT1184F are all available in 16-pin nar-  
row SO packages.  
gramming of lamp current.  
The LT1182/LT1183/LT1184/LT1184F operate with input  
supply voltages from 3V to 30V. The ICs also have a  
battery supply voltage pin that operates from 4.5V to 30V.  
The LT1182/LT1183 draw 9mA typical quiescent current  
while the LT1184/LT1184F draw 6mA typical quiescent

tor for the CCFL regulator. Its uses include frequency  
compensation,lamp-currentaveragingforgroundedlamp  
circuits, and current limiting. The voltage on the CCFL VC  
pin determines the current trip level for switch turnoff.  
During normal operation this pin sits at a voltage between  
0.95V (zero switch current) and 2.0V (maximum switch  
current) with respect to analog ground (AGND). This pin  
has a high impedance output and permits external voltage  
clamping to adjust current limit. A single capacitor to  
ground provides stable loop compensation. This simpli-  
fied loop compensation method permits the CCFL regula-  
tor to exhibit single-pole transient response behavior and  
virtually eliminates transformer output overshoot.  
CCFL PGND (Pin 1): This pin is the emitter of an internal  
NPN power switch. CCFL switch current flows through  
this pin and permits internal, switch-current sensing. The  
regulators provide a separate analog ground and power  
ground(s) to isolate high current ground paths from low  
current signal paths. Linear Technology recommends the  
use of star-ground layout techniques.  
ICCFL (Pin2):ThispinistheinputtotheCCFLlampcurrent  
programmingcircuit.Thispininternallyregulatesto450mV  
(LT1182/LT1183) or 465mV (LT1184/LT1184F). The pin  
accepts a DC input current signal of 0µA to 100µA full  
scale. This input signal is converted to a 0µA to 500µA  
source current at the CCFL VC pin. By shunt regulating the  
ICCFL pin, the input programming current can be set with  
DAC, PWM or potentiometer control. As input program-  
ming current increases, the regulated lamp current in-  
creases. For a typical 6mA lamp, the range of input  
programming current is about 0µA to 50µA.  
AGND (Pin 5): This pin is the low current analog ground.  
It is the negative sense terminal for the internal 1.24V  
reference and the ICCFL summing voltage in the LT1182/  
LT1183/LT1184/LT1184F. It is also a sense terminal for  
the LCD dual input error amplifier in the LT1182/LT1183.  
Connectexternalfeedbackdividernetworksthatterminate  
to ground and frequency compensation components that  
terminate to ground directly to this pin for best regulation  
and performance.  
DIO (Pin 3): This pin is the common connection between  
the cathode and anode of two internal diodes. The remain-  
ing terminals of the two diodes connect to ground. In a  
grounded lamp configuration, DIO connects to the low  
voltage side of the lamp. Bidirectional lamp current flows  
in the DIO pin and thus the diodes conduct alternately on  
half cycles. Lamp current is controlled by monitoring one-  
half of the average lamp current. The diode conducting on  
negativehalfcycleshasone-tenthofitscurrentdivertedto  
the CCFL VC pin. This current nulls against the source  
current provided by the lamp-current programmer circuit.  
A single capacitor on the CCFL VC pin provides both stable  
loop compensation and an averaging function to the half-  
wave-rectified sinusoidal lamp current. Therefore, input  
programming current relates to one-half of average lamp  
current. This scheme reduces the number of loop com-  
pensation components and permits faster loop transient  
response in comparison to previously published circuits.  
If a floating-lamp configuration is used, ground the DIO  
pin.  
SHUTDOWN (Pin 6): Pulling this pin low causes complete  
regulator shutdown with quiescent current typically re-  
duced to 35µA. The nominal threshold voltage for this pin  
is 0.85V. If the pin is not used, it can float high or be pulled  
to a logic high level (maximum of 6V). Carefully evaluate  
active operation when allowing the pin to float high.  
Capacitive coupling into the pin from switching transients  
could cause erratic operation.  
CCFL VSW (Pin 16): This pin is the collector of the internal  
NPN power switch for the CCFL regulator. The power  
switch provides a minimum of 1.25A. Maximum switch  
current is a function of duty cycle as internal slope com-  
pensation ensures stability with duty cycles greater than  
50%. Using a driver loop to automatically adapt base drive  
current to the minimum required to keep the switch in a  
quasi-saturationstateyieldsfastswitchingtimesandhigh  
efficiency operation. The ratio of switch current to driver  
current is about 50:1.  
CCFL VC (Pin 4): This pin is the output of the lamp current  
programmer circuit and the input of the current compara-

PIN FUNCTIONS  
Bulb (Pin 15): This pin connects to the low side of a 7V  
threshold comparator between the BAT and Bulb pins.  
This circuit sets the maximum voltage level across the  
primary side of the Royer converter under all operating  
conditions and limits the maximum secondary output  
under start-up conditions or open lamp conditions. This  
eases transformer voltage rating requirements. Set the  
voltagelimittoinsurelampstart-upwithworst-case,lamp  
start voltages and cold-temperature system operating  
conditions. The Bulb pin connects to the junction of an  
external divider network. The divider network connects  
from the center tap of the Royer transformer or the actual  
battery supply voltage to the top side of the current source  
“tail inductor”. A capacitor across the top of the divider  
network filters switching ripple and sets a time constant  
that determines how quickly the clamp activates. When  
the comparator activates, sink current is generated to pull  
the CCFL VC pin down. This action transfers the entire  
regulator loop from current mode operation into voltage  
mode operation.  
Royer (Pin 13): This pin connects to the center-tapped  
primary of the Royer converter and is used with the BAT  
pin in a floating lamp configuration where lamp current is  
controlled by sensing Royer primary side converter cur-  
rent. This pin is the inverting terminal of a high-side  
current sense amplifier. The typical quiescent current is  
50µA into the pin. If the CCFL regulator is not used in a  
floating lamp configuration, tie the Royer and BAT pins  
together. ThispinisonlyavailableontheLT1182/LT1183/

VIN (Pin 12): This pin is the supply pin for the LT1182/  
LT1183/LT1184/LT1184F.TheICsacceptaninputvoltage  
range of 3V minimum to 30V maximum with little change  
in quiescent current (zero switch current). An internal,  
low dropout regulator provides a 2.4V supply for most of  
the internal circuitry. Supply current increases as switch  
current increases at a rate approximately 1/50 of switch  
current. This corresponds to a forced Beta of 50 for each  
switch. TheICsincorporateundervoltagelockoutbysens-  
ing regulator dropout and lockout switching for input  
voltages below 2.5V. Hysteresis is not used to maximize  
the useful range of input voltage. The typical input voltage  
is a 3.3V or 5V logic supply.  
BAT (Pin 14): This pin connects to the battery or battery  
charger voltage from which the CCFL Royer converter and  
LCD contrast converter operate. This voltage is typically  
higher than the VIN supply voltage but can be equal or less  
than VIN. However, the BAT voltage must be at least 2.1V  
greater than the internal 2.4V regulator or 4.5V minimum  
up to 30V maximum. This pin provides biasing for the  
lamp current programming block, is used with the Royer  
pin for floating lamp configurations, and connects to one  
input for the open lamp protection circuitry. For floating  
lamp configurations, this pin is the noninverting terminal  
of a high-side current sense amplifier. The typical quies-  
cent current is 50µA into the pin. The BAT and Royer pins  
monitor the primary side Royer converter current through  
aninternal0.1topsidecurrentsenseresistor. A0Ato1A  
primary side, center tap converter current is translated to  
an input signal range of 0mV to 100mV for the current  
sense amplifier. This input range translates to a 0µA to

source current provided by the programmer circuit. The  
BAT pin also connects to the top side of an internal clamp  
between the BAT and Bulb pins.  
LT1182/LT1183  
LCD VC (Pin 7): This pin is the output of the LCD contrast  
error amplifier and the input of the current comparator for  
the LCD contrast regulator. Its uses include frequency  
compensation and current limiting. The voltage on the  
LCD VC pin determines the current trip level for switch  
turnoff. During normal operation, this pin sits at a voltage  
between 0.95V (zero switch current) and 2.0V (maximum  
switch current). The LCD VC pin has a high impedance  
output and permits external voltage clamping to adjust  
current limit. A series R/C network to ground provides  
stable loop compensation.  
LCD PGND (Pin 8): This pin is the emitter of an internal  
NPN power switch. LCD contrast switch current flows  
through this pin and permits internal, switch-current  
sensing. The regulators provide a separate analog ground  
and power ground(s) to isolate high current ground paths  
from low current signal paths. Linear Technology recom-  
mends star-ground layout techniques.

LCD VSW (Pin 9): This pin is the collector of the internal  
NPN power switch for the LCD contrast regulator. The  
power switch provides a minimum of 625mA. Maximum  
switch current is a function of duty cycle as internal slope  
compensation ensures stability with duty cycles greater  
than 50%. Using a driver loop to automatically adapt base  
drive current to the minimum required to keep the switch  
in a quasi-saturation state yields fast switching times and  
high efficiency operation. The ratio of switch current to  
driver current is about 50:1.

scheme permits one polarity of contrast to be regulated.  
The proximity of FB to the LCD VSW pin makes it sensitive  
to ringing on the switch pin. A small capacitor (0.01µF)  
from FB to ground filters switching ripple.  
The FB pin requires attention to start-up conditions when  
generating negative contrast voltages. The pin has two  
stable operating points; regulating to 1.244V for positive  
contrast voltages or regulating to –12mV for negative  
contrast voltages. Under start-up conditions, the FB pin  
heads to a positive voltage. If negative contrast voltages  
are generated, tie a diode from the FB pin to ground. This  
ensures that the FB pin will clamp before reaching the  
positive reference voltage. Switchingaction then pullsthe  
FB pin back to its normal servo voltage.

FBN (Pin 10): This pin is the noninverting terminal for the  
negative contrast control error amplifier. The inverting  
terminal is offset from ground by –12mV and defines the  
error amplifier output state under start-up conditions. The  
FBN pin acts as a summing junction for a resistor divider  
network. Input bias current for this pin is typically 1µA  
flowing out of the pin. If this pin is not used, force FBN to  
greater than 0.5V to deactivate the negative contrast  
control input stage. The proximity of FBN to the LCD VSW  
pin makes it sensitive to ringing on the switch pin. A small  
capacitor (0.01µF) from FBN to ground filters switching

functions at once. The REF pin has a typical output  
impedance of 45on the LT1183 and a typical output  
impedance of 15on the LT1184/LT1184F. Reference  
load current should be limited to a few hundred microam-  
peres, otherwise reference regulation will be degraded.  
REF is used to generate the maximum programming

effects damage the lamp and shorten its lifetime. Lamp  
drive should contain zero DC component. In addition to  
good efficiency, the converter should deliver the lamp  
drive in the form of a sine wave. This minimizes EMI and  
RF emissions. Such emissions can interfere with other  
devices and can also degrade overall operating efficiency.  
Sinusoidal CCFL drive maximizes current-to-light conver-  
sion in the lamp. The circuit should also permit lamp  
intensity control from zero to full brightness with no  
hysteresis or “pop-on”.  
Current generation portable computers and instruments

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
Manufacturers offer a wide array of monochrome and  
color displays. LCD display types include passive matrix

age polarity (positive and negative contrast voltage dis-  
plays),operatingvoltagerange,contrastadjustrange,and

majority of available displays. Some newer types of dis-  
plays require a fairly constant supply voltage and provide  
contrastadjustmentthroughadigitalcontrolpin.Aunique,  
dual polarity, error amplifier and the selection of a flyback  
converter topology allow either positive or negative LCD  
contrast voltages to be generated with minor circuit  
changes. The difference between the LT1182 and LT1183  
is found in the pinout for the inputs of the LCD contrast  
error amplifier. The LT1182 brings out the error amplifier  
inputs individually for setting up positive and negative  
polarity contrast capability. This feature allows an output  
connector to determine the choice of contrast operating  
polarity by a ground connection. The LT1183 ties the error  
amplifier inputs together and brings out an internal refer-  
ence. The reference may be used in generating negative  
contrast voltages or in programming lamp current.  
The small size and battery-powered operation associated  
with LCD equipped apparatus dictate low component  
count and high efficiency for these circuits. Size con-

Block Diagram Operation  
TheLT1182/LT1183/LT1184/LT1184Farefixedfrequency,  
current mode switching regulators. Fixed frequency, cur-  
rent mode switchers control switch duty cycle directly by  
switch current rather than by output voltage. Referring to  
the block diagram for the LT1182/LT1183, the switch for  
eachregulatorturnsONatthestartofeachoscillatorcycle.  
The switches turn OFF when switch current reaches a  
predetermined level. The operation of the CCFL regulator  
in the LT1184/LT1184F is identical to that in the LT1182/  
LT1183. The control of output lamp current is obtained by  
using the output of a unique programming block to set  
current trip level. The contrast voltage is controlled by the  
output of a dual-input-stage error amplifier, which sets  
current trip level. The current mode switching technique  
has several advantages. First, it provides excellent rejec-  
tion of input voltage variations. Second, it reduces the 90°  
phase shift at mid-frequencies in the energy storage  
inductor. This simplifies closed-loop frequency compen-  
sation under widely varying input voltage or output load  
conditions. Finally, it allows simple pulse-by-pulse cur-  
rent limiting to provide maximum switch protection under  
output overload or short-circuit conditions.  
Additionally,allcomponentsincludingPCboardandhard-  
ware, usually must fit within the LCD enclosure with a  
height restriction of 5mm to 10mm.  
The CCFL switching regulator in the LT1182/LT1183/  
LT1184/LT1184F typically drives an inductor that acts as  
aswitchedmodecurrentsourceforacurrentdrivenRoyer  
class converter with efficiencies as high as 90%. The  
control loop forces the regulator to pulse-width modulate  
the inductor’s average current to maintain constant cur-  
rent in the lamp. The constant current’s value, and thus  
lamp intensity is programmable. This drive technique  
provides a wide range of intensity control. A unique lamp  
current programming block permits either grounded-  
lamporfloating-lampconfigurations. Grounded-lampcir-  
cuits directly control one-half of actual lamp current.  
Floating-lamp circuitsdirectly controltheRoyer’sprimary  
side converter current. Floating-lamp circuits provide  
differentialdrivetothelampandreducethelossfromstray  
lamp-to-frame capacitance, extending illumination range.  
The LCD contrast switching regulator in the LT1182/  
LT1183 is typically configured as a flyback converter and  
generates a bias supply for contrast control. Other topol-  
ogy choices for generating the bias supply include a boost  
converteroraboost/chargepumpconverter. Thesupply’s

current programming block. This block provides an easy-  
to-use interface to program lamp current. The program-  
mer circuit also reduces the number of time constants in  
the control loop by combining the error signal conversion  
scheme and frequency compensation into a single capaci-  
tor. The control loop thus exhibits the response of a single  
pole system, allows for faster loop transient response and  
virtually eliminates overshoot under startup or overload  
conditions.

The oscillator turns on an output via its own logic and  
driver circuitry. Adaptive anti-sat circuitry detects the  
onset of saturation in a power switch and adjusts base  
drive current instantaneously to limit switch saturation.  
This minimizes driver dissipation and provides rapid turn-  
off of the switch. The CCFL power switch is guaranteed to  
provide a minimum of 1.25A in the LT1182/LT1183/  
LT1184/LT1184FandtheLCDpowerswitchisguaranteed  
to provide a minimum of 0.625A in the LT1182/LT1183.  
The anti-sat circuitry provides a ratio of switch current to  
driver current of about 50:1.  
Lamp current is programmed at the input of the program-  
mer block, the ICCFL pin. This pin is the input of a shunt  
regulator and accepts a DC input current signal of 0µA to  
100µA. This input signal is converted to a 0µA to 500uA  
sourcecurrentattheCCFLVC pin. Theprogrammercircuit  
is simply a current-to-current converter with a gain of five.  
ByregulatingtheICCFL pin, theinputprogrammingcurrent  
can be set with DAC, PWM or potentiometer control. The  
typical input current programming range for 0mA to 6mA  
lamp current is 0µA to 50µA.  
The ICCFL pin is sensitive to capacitive loading and will  
oscillate with capacitance greater than 10pF. For example,  
loading the ICCFL pin with a 1× or 10× scope probe causes  
oscillation and erratic CCFL regulator operation because  
of the probe’s respective input capacitance. A current  
meter in series with the ICCFL pin will also produce oscil-  
lation due to its shunt capacitance. Use a decoupling  
resistorofseveralkilo-ohmsbetweentheICCFL pinandthe  
control circuitry if excessive stray capacitance exists. This  
is basically free with potentiometer or PWM control as  
these control schemes use resistors. A current output  
DAC should use an isolating resistor as the DAC can have  
significant output capacitance that changes as a function  
of input code.  
Simplified Lamp Current Programming

LT1184Fcontrolslampcurrent,permittingeithergrounded-  
lamp or floating-lamp configurations. Grounded configu-  
rations control lamp current by directly controlling one-  
half of actual lamp current and converting it to a feedback  
signal to close a control loop. Floating configurations  
control lamp current by directly controlling the Royer’s  
primary side converter current and generating a feedback  
signal to close a control loop.  
Previous backlighting solutions have used a traditional  
erroramplifierinthecontrollooptoregulatelampcurrent.  
ThisapproachconvertedanRMScurrentintoaDCvoltage  
for the input of the error amplifier. This approach used  
several time constants in order to provide stable loop  
frequency compensation. This compensation scheme  
meant that the loop had to be fairly slow and that output  
overshoot with startup or overload conditions had to be  
carefully evaluated in terms of transformer stress and  
breakdown voltage requirements.

tance include long high voltage lamp leads, reflective  
metal foil around the lamp, and displays supplied in metal  
enclosures. Losses for a good display are under 5%  
whereas losses for a bad display range from 5% to 25%.  
Lossy displays are the primary reason to use a floating-  
lampconfiguration.Providingsymmetric,differentialdrive  
to the lamp reduces the total parasitic loss by one-half.  
Maintaining closed-loop control of lamp current in a  
floating lamp configuration now necessitates deriving a  
feedback signal from the primary side of the Royer trans-  
former. Previous solutions have used an external preci-  
sion shunt and high side sense amplifier configuration.  
This approach has been integrated onto the LT1182/  
LT1183/LT1184F for simplicity of design and ease of use.  
An internal 0.1W resistor monitors the Royer converter  
current and connects between the input terminals of a  
high-side sense amplifier. A 0A to 1A Royer primary side,  
center tap current is translated to a 0µA to 500uA sink  
current at the CCFL VC pin to null against the source  
current provided by the lamp current programmer circuit.  
The compensation capacitor on the CCFL VC pin provides  
stableloopcompensationandanaveragingfunctiontothe  
error sink current. Therefore, input programming current  
is related to average Royer converter current. Floating-  
lamp circuits operate similarly to grounded-lamp circuits,  
except for the derivation of the feedback signal.  
The transfer function between lamp current and input  
programmingcurrentmustbeempiricallydeterminedand  
is dependent on the particular lamp/display housing com-  
bination used. The lamp and display housing are a distrib-  
uted loss structure due to parasitic lamp-to-frame capaci-  
tance. This means that the current flowing at the high  
voltage side of the lamp is higher than what is flowing at  
the DIO pin side of the lamp. The input programming  
current is set to control lamp current at the high voltage  
side of the lamp, even though the feedback signal is the  
lamp current at the bottom of the lamp. This insures that  
the lamp is not overdriven which can degrade the lamp’s  
operating lifetime.  
Floating-Lamp Configuration  
In a floating-lamp configuration, the lamp is fully floating  
with no galvanic connection to ground. This allows the  
transformer to provide symmetric, differential drive to the  
lamp. Balanced drive eliminates the field imbalance asso-  
ciated with parasitic lamp-to-frame capacitance and re-  
ducesthermometering(unevenlampintensityalongthe  
lamp length) at low lamp currents.  
The transfer function between primary side converter  
current and input programming current must be empiri-  
cally determined and is dependent upon a myriad of  
factors including lamp characteristics, display construc-  
tion, transformer turns ratio, and the tuning of the Royer  
oscillator. Once again, lamp current will be slightly higher  
at one end of the lamp and input programming current  
should be set for this higher level to insure that the lamp  
is not overdriven.  
Carefully evaluate display designs in relation to the physi-  
cal layout of the lamp, it leads and the construction of the  
display housing. Parasitic capacitance from any high  
voltage point to DC or AC ground creates paths for  
unwanted current flow. This parasitic current flow de-  
grades electrical efficiency and losses up to 25% have  
been observed in practice. As an example, at a Royer  
operating frequency of 60kHz, 1pF of stray capacitance  
represents an impedance of 2.65M. With an operating  
lamp voltage of 400V and an operating lamp current of  
6mA, the parasitic current is 150µA. The efficiency loss is  
2.5%. Layout techniques that increase parasitic capaci-

the voltage source has high current capability. Linear  
Technology recommends the use of an aluminum electro-  
lytic for the transformer center tap bypass capacitor with  
an ESR greater than or equal to 0.5. This lowers the peak  
surge currents to an acceptable level. In general, the wire  
and trace inductance in this path also help reduce the di/  
dt of the surge current. This issue only exists with floating  
lamp circuits as grounded-lamp circuits do not make use  
of the high-side sense resistor.

Note 55 and Design Note 101 contain detailed information  
regarding equipment needs.  
Input Supply Voltage Operating Range  
The backlight/LCD contrast control circuits must operate  
over a wide range of input supply voltage and provide  
excellent line regulation for the lamp current and the  
contrast output voltage. This range includes the normal  
range of the battery pack itself as well as the AC wall  
adapter voltage, which is normally much higher than the  
maximum battery voltage. A typical input supply is 7V to  
28V; a 4 to 1 supply range.  
Optimizing Optical Efficiency vs Electrical Efficiency  
Evaluating the performance of an LCD backlight requires  
the measurement of both electrical and photometric effi-  
ciencies. The best optical efficiency operating point does  
not necessarily correspond to the best electrical effi-  
ciency. However, these two operating points are generally  
close. The desired goal is to maximize the amount of light  
out for the least amount of input power. It is possible to  
construct backlight circuits that operate with over 90%  
electrical efficiency, but produce significantly less light  
output than circuits that operate at 80% electrical effi-  
ciency.  
Operation of the CCFL control circuitry from the AC wall  
adapter generates the worst-case stress for the CCFL  
transformer. Evaluations of loop compensation for over-  
shoot on startup transients and overload conditions are  
essential to avoid destructive arcing, overheating, and  
transformerfailure.Open-lampconditionsforcetheRoyer  
converter to operate open-loop. Component stress is  
againworst-casewithmaximuminputvoltageconditions.  
The LT1182/LT1183/LT1184/LT1184F open-lamp pro-  
tection clamps the maximum transformer secondary volt-  
age to safe levels and transfers the regulator loop from  
current mode operation into voltage mode operation.  
Other fault conditions include board shorts and compo-  
nent failures. These fault conditions can increase primary  
side currents to very high levels, especially at maximum  
input voltage conditions. Solutions to these fault condi-  
tions include electrical and thermal fuses in the supply  
voltage trace.  
The best electrical efficiency typically occur’s just as the  
CCFL’s transformer drive waveforms begin to exhibit  
artifactsofhigherorderharmonicsreflectedbackfromthe  
Royer transformer secondary. Maximizing electrical effi-  
ciency equates to smaller values for the Royer primary  
side, resonating capacitor and larger values for the Royer  
secondary side ballast capacitor. The best optical effi-  
ciency occurs with nearly ideal sinusoidal drive to the  
lamp. Maximizing optical efficiency equates to larger  
valuesfortheRoyerprimarysideresonatingcapacitorand  
smallervaluesfortheRoyersecondarysideballastcapaci-  
tor. The preferred operating point for the CCFL converter  
is somewhere in between the best electrical efficiency and  
the best optical efficiency. This operating point maximizes  
photometric output per watt of input power.  
Improvements in battery technology are increasing bat-  
tery lifetimes and decreasing battery voltages required by  
the portable systems. However, operation at reduced  
battery voltages requires higher, turns-ratio transformers

Making accurate and repeatable measurements of electri-

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
Size Constraints  
Applications Support  
Tighter length, width, and height constraints for CCFL and  
LCDcontrastcontrolcircuitryaretheresultofLCDdisplay  
enclosure sizes remaining fairly constant while display  
screen sizes have increased. Space requirements for  
connector hardware include the input power supply and  
control signal connector, the lamp connector, and the  
contrast output voltage connector.  
Linear Technology invests an enormous amount of time,  
resources, and technical expertise in understanding, de-  
signing and evaluating backlight/LCD contrast solutions  
for system designers. The design of an efficient and  
compact LCD backlight system is a study of compromise  
in a transduced electronic system. Every aspect of the  
design is interrelated and any design change requires  
complete re-evaluation for all other critical design param-  
eters. Linear Technology has engineered one of the most  
complete test and evaluation setups for backlight designs  
and understands the issues and tradeoffs in achieving a  
compact, effficient and economical customer solution.  
Linear Technology welcomes the opportunity to discuss,  
design, evaluate, andoptimizeanybacklight/LCDcontrast  
system with a customer. For further information on back-  
light/LCD contrast designs, consult the references listed  
below.  
Even though size requirements are shrinking, the high  
voltage AC required to drive the lamp has not decreased.  
In some cases, the use of longer bulbs for color, portable  
equipment has increased the high voltage requirement.  
Accommodating the high voltage on the circuit board  
dictates certain layout spacings and routings, involves  
providing creepages and clearances in the transformer  
design, and most importantly, involves routing a hole  
underneath the CCFL transformer. Routing this hole mini-  
mizes high voltage leakage paths and prevents moisture  
buildup that can result in destructive arcing. In addition to  
high voltage layout techniques, use appropriate layout  
techniques for isolating high current paths from low-  
current signal paths.

This leaves the remaining space for control circuitry at a  
premium. Minimum component count is required and  
minimum size for the components used is required. This  
squeeze on component size is often in direct conflict with  
the goals of maximizing battery life and efficiency. Com-  
promise is often the only remaining choice.

The LCD contrast switching regulator on the LT1182/  
LT1183 operates in many standard switching configura-  
tions and is used as a classic DC/DC converter. The dual-  
input-stage error amplifier easily regulates either positive  
or negative contrast voltages. Topology choices for the  
converter include single inductor and transformer-based  
solutions. The switching regulator operates equally well  
either in continuous mode or discontinuous mode. Effi-  
ciencies for LCD contrast circuits range from 75% to 85%  
and depend on the total power drain of the particular  
display. Adjustment control of the LCD contrast voltage is  
provided by either potentiometer, PWM, or DAC control.
