Abstract
A display apparatus includes a display panel and a backlight assembly including a lamp and an inverter. The inverter includes a main transformer, a main driver and a voltage controller. The main transformer applies a driving alternating current (AC) voltage to the lamp. The main driver generates an output signal controlling the main transformer based on a feedback signal from the main transformer. The voltage controller is electrically connected to a feedback terminal of the main driver to control a maximum level of a voltage applied to the feedback terminal.
