MAX8759ETI+-MAX8759ETI+T
Low-Cost, SMBus, CCFL Backlight Controller
General Description
The MAX8759 integrated cold-cathode fluorescent lamp
(CCFL) inverter controller is designed to drive CCFLs
using a full-bridge resonant inverter. The resonant opera-
tion ensures reliable striking and provides near-sinusoidal
waveforms over the entire input range. The controller
operates over a wide input-voltage range of 4.5V to
28V with high power to light efficiency. The device also
includes safety features that effectively protect against
single-point fault conditions such as lamp-out, secondary
overvoltage, and secondary short-circuit faults.
The MAX8759 provides accurate lamp-current regulation
(±2.5%) for superior CCFL inverter performance. The lamp
current is adjustable with an external resistor; 10:1 dim-
ming range can be achieved by turning the CCFL on and
off using a digital pulse-width modulation (DPWM) method,
while maintaining the lamp-current constant. The MAX8759
provides three mechanisms for controlling brightness:
2-wire SMBus™-compatible interface, external ambient-
light sensor (ALS), or system PWM control. The MAX8759
supports Intel display power-saving technology (DPST) to
maximize battery life. The device includes two lamp-current
feedback input pins that support dual-lamp applications with
a minimum number of external components.
The MAX8759 controls a full-bridge inverter for maximum
efficiency and directly drives four external n-channel
power MOSFETs. An internal 5.35V linear regulator pow-
ers the MOSFET drivers and most of the internal circuitry.
The MAX8759 is available in a space-saving, 28-pin, thin
QFN package and operates over a -40°C to +85°C tem-
perature range.

Connect a capacitor between PWMO and GND. The capacitor forms a lowpass ilter with an internal 40kΩ (typ) resistor for iltering the DPST signal.FREQChopping-Frequency Adjustment Pin. Connect a resistor from FREQ to GND to set the DPWM frequency:
fDPWM = 210Hz x 169kΩ / RFREQ.COMPTransconductance Error Ampliier Output. A compensation capacitor connected between COMP and GND
sets the rise and fall time of the lamp-current envelope in DPWM operation.DELAdaptive Zero-Crossing-Delay Adjustment Pin. Connect a resistor between DEL and GND to adjust the
range of the zero-crossing delay. Connecting DEL to VCC disables the zero-crossing delay function.IFB1
Lamp-Current-Feedback Input. The IFB1 sense signal is internally full-wave rectiied. IFB1 is compared with IFB2 and the larger is used for lamp-current regulation. The average value of the rectiied signal is
regulated to 785mV (typ) by controlling the on-time of high-side switch. An open-lamp fault is generated if
the peak voltage of IFB1 is below 600mV for a fault delay period set by TFLT.IFB2
Lamp-Current-Feedback Input. The IFB2 sense signal is internally full-wave rectiied. IFB1 is compared with IFB2 and the larger is used for lamp-current regulation. The average value of the rectiied signal is
regulated to 800mV (typ) by controlling the on-time of high-side switch. An open-lamp fault is generated if
the peak voltage of IFB2 is below 600mV for a fault-delay period set by TFLT. IFB2 input can be disabled
by connecting IFB2 to VCC.VFB
Transformer Secondary Voltage-Feedback Input. A capacitive voltage-divider between the high-voltage
terminal of the CCFL tube and GND sets the maximum average lamp voltage during striking and lamp-out
fault. When the peak voltage on VFB exceeds the internal overvoltage threshold, the controller turns on an
internal current sink, discharging the COMP capacitor to limit the switch on-time. The VFB pin is also used
to detect a secondary undervoltage condition. If the peak voltage on VFB is below 230mV continuously for
250µs during the DPWM ON period, the MAX8759 shuts down.ISEC
Transformer Secondary Current-Feedback Input. A current-sense resistor connected between the low-
voltage end of the transformer secondary and the ground sets the maximum secondary current during
short-circuit fault. When the peak voltage on ISEC exceeds the internal overcurrent threshold, the controller
turns on an internal current sink discharging the COMP capacitor.LX1
GH1 Gate-Driver Return. LX1 is the input to the current-limit and zero-crossing comparators. The device
senses the voltage across the low-side MOSFET NL1 to detect primary current zero crossing and primary
overcurrent.GH1High-Side MOSFET NH1 Gate Driver Output

Typical Operating Circuit
The MAX8759 typical operating circuit (Figure 1) is a sin-
gle-lamp CCFL backlight inverter for notebook computer
TFT LCD panels. The input voltage range of the circuit
is from 7.5V to 24V. The maximum RMS lamp current is
set to 6mA and the maximum RMS striking voltage is set
to 1800V. Table 1 lists some important components and
Table 2 lists the component suppliers’ contact information.
Detailed Description

The MAX8759 controls a full-bridge resonant inverter to
convert an unregulated DC input into a high-frequency AC
output for powering CCFLs. The resonant operation maxi-
mizes striking capability and provides near-sinusoidal
waveforms over the entire input range to improve CCFL
lifetime. The lamp brightness is adjusted by turning the
lamp on and off with a DPWM signal. The DPWM fre-
quency can be accurately adjusted with a resistor. The
brightness of the lamp is proportional to the duty cycle of
the DPWM signal, which is controlled either with a 2-wire
SMBus-compatible interface, with an external ALS, or
with an external PWM signal. The device also includes
safety features that effectively protect against single-point
fault conditions such as lamp-out and secondary short-
circuit faults. An internal 5.35V linear regulator powers the
MOSFET drivers and most of the internal circuitry. Figure
2 is the functional diagram of the MAX8759 and Figure 3
is the detailed diagram of the SMBus and ALS input block.
Resonant Operation

The MAX8759 drives four n-channel power MOSFETs
that make up the zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) full-bridge
inverter as shown in Figure 4. Assume that NH1 and NL2
are on at the beginning of a switching cycle as shown in
Figure 4(a). The primary current flows through MOSFET
NH1, DC blocking capacitor C2, the primary side of
transformer T1, and MOSFET NL2. During this interval,
the primary current ramps up until the controller turns
off NH1. When NH1 is turned off, the primary current
forward biases the body diode of NL1, which clamps the
LX1 voltage just below ground as shown in Figure 4(b).
When the controller turns on NL1, its drain-to-source volt-
age is near zero because its forward-biased body diode
clamps the drain. Since NL2 is still on, the primary current
flows through NL1, C2, the primary side of T1, and NL2.
Once the primary current drops to the minimum current
threshold (6mV/RDS(ON)), the controller turns off NL2.
The remaining energy in T1 charges up the LX2 node
until the body diode of NH2 is forward biased. When
NH2 turns on, it does so with near-zero drain-to-source
voltage. The primary current reverses polarity as shown
in Figure 4(c), beginning a new cycle with the current
flowing in the opposite direction, with NH2 and NL1 on.
The primary current ramps up until the controller turns
off NH2. When NH2 is turned off, the primary current
forward biases the body diode of NL2, which clamps
the LX2 voltage just below ground as shown in Figure
4(d). After the LX2 node goes low, the controller loss-
lessly turns on NL2. Once the primary current drops to
the minimum current threshold, the controller turns off
NL1. The remaining energy charges up the LX1 node
until the body diode of NH1 is forward biased. Finally,
NH1 losslessly turns on, beginning a new cycle as
shown in Figure 4(a). Note that switching transitions on
all four power MOSFETs occur under ZVS conditions,
which reduces transient power losses and EMI.

A simplified CCFL inverter circuit is shown in Figure 5 (a).
The full-bridge power stage is simplified and represented
as a square-wave AC source. The resonant tank circuit
can be further simplified to Figure 5(b) by removing the
transformer. CS is the primary series capacitor, CS’ is the
series capacitance reflected to the secondary, CP is the
secondary parallel capacitor, N is the transformer turns
ratio, L is the transformer secondary leakage inductance,
and RL is an idealized resistance that models the CCFL
in normal operation.
Figure 6 shows the frequency response of the resonant
tank’s voltage gain under different load conditions. The
primary series capacitor is 1µF, the secondary parallel
capacitor is 15pF, the transformer turns ratio is 1:93,
and the secondary leakage inductance is 260mH. Notice
that there are two peaks, fS, and fP, in the frequency
response. The first peak fS is the series resonant peak
determined by the secondary leakage inductance (L) and
the series capacitor reflected to the secondary (C’S):f2LC=′π

The second peak fP is the parallel resonant peak deter-
mined by the secondary leakage inductance (L), the par-
allel capacitor (CP), and the series capacitor reflected to
the secondary (C’S):fCC2LCC=′π′+
The inverter is designed to operate between these two
resonant peaks. When the lamp is off, the operating point
of the resonant tank is close to the parallel resonant
peak due to the lamp’s infinite impedance. The circuit
converter. While in parallel-loaded resonant operation,
the inverter behaves like a voltage source to generate the
necessary striking voltage. Theoretically, the output volt-
age of the resonant converter increases until the lamp is
ionized or until it reaches the IC’s secondary voltage limit.
Once the lamp is ionized, the equivalent load resistance
decreases rapidly and the operating point moves toward
the series resonant peak. While in series resonant opera-
tion, the inverter behaves like a current source.
Lamp-Current Regulation

The MAX8759 uses a lamp-current control loop to regu-
late the current delivered to the CCFL. The heart of the
