摘要:
A lamp driving apparatus includes a lamp driving unit which is provided with a predetermined direct current (“DC”) voltage from an external source, converts the provided DC voltage into a first lamp driving voltage and a second lamp driving voltage, and provides the first lamp driving voltage and the second lamp driving voltage to a lamp, and a control unit which detects the first lamp driving voltage and the second lamp driving voltage and generates first detection signals based on the detected first lamp driving voltage and generates second detection signals based on the detected second lamp driving voltage, compares a test signal with a reference voltage, and generates a driving control signal according to the result of the comparison, wherein the test signal is obtained by merging the first detection signal and the second detection signal.
摘要:
A lamp, lamp holder, and a power supply substrate that allow easy fabrication of a backlight assembly or a power supply module for a display device are presented. The lamp includes a lamp tube and an electrode that extends outside the lamp tube to form a lamp lead. The lamp holder includes a body for holding the lamp tube and a power supply member for providing voltage to the lamp lead. A power supply module includes a power supply substrate combined with a lamp holder holding the lamp. The lamp holders are fixed to fixing portions of the power supply substrate or to fixing holes of a connection plate. As the design allows easy separation of the lamp holders from the power supply substrate, building a backlight assembly or a display device is facilitated.
