Abstract
An exemplary backlight control circuit includes a load (), an inverter circuit (), a pulse width modulation integrated circuit (PWM IC) (), a protecting circuit (), and a feedback circuit (). The load () includes two backlight lamps () with first terminals (). The PWM IC with a protecting output () is connected to the load via the inverter circuit. The protecting circuit has a reference voltage. The first feedback circuit is capable of outputting a voltage to the protecting circuit corresponding to the voltage detected from the first terminals. The protecting circuit is configured to control the PWM IC to stop outputting a backlight adjusting signal to the inverter circuit such that the inverter circuit stops driving the load when the output voltage is higher than the reference voltage of the protecting circuit.
