Abstract
An LCD backlight driving circuit is provided for providing protection to LCD backlight lamps. In a preferred embodiment, the driving circuit for LCD backlight lamps comprises: a PWM controller sending control signals; two transistors receiving the control signals and sending two low-voltage pulse signals; an inverter converting the two low-voltage pulse signals to a high-voltage AC (Alternating Current) power; two lamps; two overvoltage protection circuits connected to the two lamps respectively; a voltage feedback module connected to the two lamps, a current feedback module connected to one of the two lamps; and a double-bridge circuit connected between the two lamps, and connected to the current feedback module for controlling the PWM controller to turn-on or turn-off. The driving circuit is capable of providing defective connection protection and open-circuit protection to LCD backlight lamps, and proportionately adjusting current flowing through the lamps.
