The present invention provides a CCFL driving circuit having a parallel-arranged transformer system and a feedback loop positioned to sense the current in one of the lamps in the system. Each CCFL in the system is driven by the secondary side an individual transformer. Based on the current sensed in the feedback loop, a controller supplies the appropriate driving voltage to the primary side of the transformers, which in turn powers each CCFL. Since the primary sides of the transformers are arranged in parallel, and since each CCFL is connected at a common node, it is ensured that each transformer receives identical voltage, and the current in each CCFL loop is balanced.
