Half bridge control IC for CCFL backlighting

The lamps start switching again on period GL and GH and the frequency is swept back to

proportional to the capacitor connected to the CSWP pin.

8.9 Overvoltage control

The overvoltage control circuit is intended to prevent the transformer output voltage from

exceeding its maximum rating. It can also be used to regulate the output voltage to the

required lamp ignition voltage.

Under normal circumstances the capacitor at the CVFB pin is charged by a constant bias

switching frequency. If the IC is in current regulation this bias current will flow away via a

tracking circuit which makes the voltage on the CVFB pin following the voltage on the

CIFB pin, see Figure 11.
