General Description
The MAX8751 cold-cathode-fluorescent lamp (CCFL) inverter controller is designed to drive multiple CCFLs using the fixed-frequency, full-bridge inverter topology. The MAX8751 operates in resonant mode during striking and switches over to constant-frequency operation after all the lamps are lit. This unique feature ensures reliable striking under all conditions and reduces the transformer stress.
