    摘要: The invention provides a method of driving a piezoelectric transformer and a power source apparatus using the same. For a circuit for driving a piezoelectric transformer which steps up a voltage input from a primary electrode by a piezoelectric effect to output the stepped up voltage from a secondary electrode, the gradient (linear differential value) of a step-up ratio at the piezoelectric transformer is detected, and the detected gradient is used to control the driving frequency for the piezoelectric transformer so that the driving frequency approaches to the resonant frequency of the piezoelectric transformer.

    摘要: A driving method and a driving circuit for a piezoelectric transformer are capable of driving the piezoelectric transformer with high driving efficiency independently of an impedance change of a load such as a cold cathode tube by corresponding to the characteristic variance of the piezoelectric transformer, thereby also suppressing mechanical damage to be imposed on the piezoelectric transformer itself even if the load changes abruptly. The piezoelectric transformer is driven with a predetermined first frequency, and a power supply for a load connected to the secondary side of the piezoelectric transformer is started, and when an impedance of a load changes and reaches a predetermined impedance during the power supply, the driving frequency of the piezoelectric transformer is changed without a sweep from the first frequency to a predetermined second frequency. Furthermore, the second frequency is determined by detecting characteristics of the piezoelectric transformer before supplying the load steadily with electric power.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a drive device for one or more series-connected cold cathode fluorescent lamps having an electrical terminal at each end. The drive device has a piezoelectric transformer for converting by means of the piezoelectric effect a primary ac input applied to primary electrodes to a secondary ac output, which is removed from secondary electrodes; a drive arrangement for applying the primary ac input to the primary electrodes; and a brightness control circuit for controlling brightness. The drive device is configured so that the end electrical terminals of the cold cathode fluorescent lamp can be connected between the two secondary electrodes. The brightness control circuit detects the phase difference between the secondary ac output and the primary ac input. When the detected phase difference is greater than a specified phase difference, the drive arrangement reduces the power of the primary ac input applied to the primary electrodes. If the detected phase difference is less than the specified phase difference, the drive arrangement increases the power of the primary ac input applied to the primary electrodes.
