An Arun Components product story

Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Jul 7, 2008

Range can power up to six CCFL tubes, and devices are available with and without dimming controls.

The CXA range of inverters made by TDK-Lambda are now available from Arun Components.

The inverters are designed for driving CCFLs (cold cathode fluorescent lamps) found at the rear of LCD panels.

CXA inverters provide high voltage AC to the CCFL tubes, which in turn produce bright white light.

The CXA range can power up to six tubes, and are available with and without dimming controls.

Several of the nondimming inverters are suitable for board mounting.

Certain models feature an output alarm, which will signal if a lamp has failed.

Additionally some models have a silicone coating over high voltage areas to prevent problems caused by dust.

The inverters are also suitable for industrial applications as they have a wide operating temperature range.
