Note) The wave form of the inverter output voltage must be area symmetric and the design
of the inverter must have specifications for the modularized lamp.
The performance of the back-light, for example life time or brightness, is much influenced by the
characteristics of the DC-AC inverter for the lamp. So all the parameters of an inverter should be
carefully designed so as not to produce too much leakage current from high-voltage output of the
inverter. When you design or order the inverter, please make sure that a poor lighting caused by the
mismatch of the back-light and the inverter(poor lighting, flicker, etc.) never occur. When you confirm
it, the module should be operated in the same condition as it is installed in your instrument.
Note (1) Lamp current is measured with current meter for high frequency as shown below.
Refer to the block diagram of the back-light unit in the next page for more information.
Specified values are for a single lamp.

(2) Lamp frequency which may produce interference with horizontal synchronous frequency may
cause line flow on the display. Therefore lamp frequency should be detached from the horizontal
synchronous frequency and its harmonics as far as possible in order to avoid interference.
(3) Life time (Hr) of a lamp is defined as the time in which it continues to operate under the
condition of Ta = 25±2°C and IL = 6.5mArms for a lamp until the brightness becomes 50%
or lower than its original value. Operating condition is lamp unit itself, not module assembly at
operating current 6.5mA.
Approval
(4) If an inverter has shutdown function, it should keep its output for over 1 second even if the
lamp connector is open. Otherwise the lamps may not be turned on.
(5) Because the inverter uses high voltage, please disconnect it from the power before
assembling or disassembling.
(6) The output of the inverter must have symmetrical(negative and positive) voltage waveform
and current waveform.
Please do not use the inverter which has unsymmetrical voltage and current and spike wave.
Designing a system inverter intended to have better display performance,
power efficiency and lamp reliability, please follow the requirements the below.
They would help increase the lamp lifetime and reduce leakage current.
a. The asymmetry rate of the inverter waveform should be less than 10%.
b. The distortion rate of the waveform should be within √2 ±10%.
* Inverter output waveform had better be more similar to ideal sine wave.
* Asymmetry rate:
Ip | I p – I –p | / Irms x 100%
* Distortion rate
I -p
I p (or I –p) / Irms

Note. (1) The supply voltage of the external system for the module input should be the
same as the definition of VDD.
(2) Apply the lamp voltage within the LCD operation range. When the back-light
turns on before the LCD operation or the LCD turns off before the back-light
turns off, the display may momentarily show abnormal screen.
(3) In case of VDD = off level,
please keep the level of input signals low or keep a high impedance.
(4) T4 should be measured after the module has been fully discharged between
power off and on period.
(5) Interface signal should not be kept at high impedance when the power is on.

CHANGE CONTROL
Design of the product may be changed regarding the specifications, appearance, parts used,
circuits, etc. for product improvement.
If a design change is judged to affect the specifications of this product, supplier should
inform customer of the change in advance.
QUALITY CONTROL
In the event of a product failure under normal operating conditions, a product trouble
or a functional disorder that can be deemed to be the responsibility of supplier, supplier
should repair the fault or replace the product free of charge within one year from the
product delivery date. However, supplier does not take responsibility for the product quality
in the case of modifications not specified by supplier.
MAINTENANCE
(a) When the module is assembled, it should be attached to the system firmly
using all mounting holes. Be careful not to twist and bend the module.
(b) Because the inverter use high voltage, it should be disconnected from power
before it is assembled or disassembled.
(c) Refrain from strong mechanical shock and / or any force to the module. In
addition to damage, this may cause improper operation or damage to the module
and CCFT back-light.
(d) Note that polarizers are very fragile and could be damage deasily.
Do not press or scratch the surface harder than a HB pencil lead.
(e) Wipe off water droplets or oil immediately. If you leave the droplets for a long
time, staining or discoloration may occur.
(f) If the surface of the polarizer is dirty, clean it using some absorbent cotton or
soft cloth.
(h) If the liquid crystal material leaks from the panel, it should be kept away
from the eyes or mouth . In case of contact with hands, legs or clothes, it must
be washed away with soap thoroughly.
(i) Protect the module from static, or the CMOS Gate Array IC would be damaged.
(j) Use finger-stalls with soft gloves in order to keep display clean during the
incoming inspection and assembly process.
(n) Protection film for polarizer on the module should be slowly peeled off just before use
so that the electrostatic charge can be minimized.
(o) Pins of I/F connector should not be touched directly with bare hands.
(c) The module should be stored in a dark place. It is prohibited to apply sunlight or
fluorescent light in storing.
12.3 Operation
(a) Do not connect or disconnect the module in the "Power On" condition.
(b) Power supply should always be turned on/off by the item 6.3
"Power on/off sequence"
(c) Module has high frequency circuits. Sufficient suppression to the electromagnetic
interference should be done by system manufacturers. Grounding and shielding methods
may be important to minimize the interference.
(d) The cable between the back-light connector and its inverter power supply should
be connected directly with a minimized length. A longer cable between
the back-light and the inverter may cause lower luminance of lamp(CCFT) and
may require higher startup voltage(Vs).
12.4 Others
(c) Do not exceed the absolute maximum rating value. ( supply voltage variation,
input voltage variation, variation in part contents and environmental temperature,
and so on)
Otherwise the module may be damaged.
(d) If the module keeps displaying the same pattern for a long period of time,
the image may be "sticked" to the screen.
To avoid image sticking, it is recommended to use a screen saver.
(e) This module has its circuitry PCB's on the rear side and should be handled
carefully in order not to be stressed.
(f) Please contact SEC in advance when you display the same pattern for a long time.
