10.2 Inverter basic function
The used loading are CCFL, brightness and electric characteristic will be influence by difference Lamp length, Lamp
radius and difference air in the Lamp or ambient temperature. So we explain the principle on the list.
(1) Step 1.: We light the lamp by input about 900~1800V ac voltage on the electrode of lamp, at this time we named
starting voltage.
(2) Stup 2.: After light up the lamp, cause by the current, impedance of the lamp will goes down so the voltage on
the lamp will also decrease to a satble state, at this time we call the voltage on the lamp named
working voltage. For keeping the lihgting, that need current flow on the lamp, at this time we named
the current to be output current.
(3) Stup 3.: Voltage-Current characteristic
Voltage
Current
