The UBA2072 is a low voltage IC intended to drive Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamps
(CCFLs) for back-lighting applications. The IC contains level-shifters, bootstrap diodes
and drivers for the external full-bridge power switches.
Furthermore, the UBA2072 has a build-in HF oscillator which determines the operating
frequency, a phase shift controller for obtaining constant lamp current, and a PWM
generator which is used to set the brightness level of the CCFLs.
The UBA2072 is designed to operate over a wide low voltage inverter supply range, up to
30V. The IC can be supplied directly from the inverter supply.

A capacitor must be connected between this pin and the signal ground. It sets
the time in which the phase difference between bridge halve A and bridge
halve B is swept down from regulation level to zero or swept up from zero to
regulation level during PWM dimming.
If a capacitor is connected between this pin and the signal ground, it sets the
frequency of the PWM oscillator.
If this pin is connected to signal ground the internal PWM oscillator is
disabled.

The IC signals a fault condition to an external circuit by pulling this pin low and
external circuits can also signal a fault condition to the IC by pulling this pin
low.
The dutycycle of the internally generated PWM signal is proportional to the

The UBA2072 is designed to drive a full-bridge inverter with resonant load. The load
consists typically of transformers with CCFLs. Two parameters are used by the UBA2072
to control the switches of the full-bridge inverter: the phase shift and the switching
frequency.
The two full bridge halves A and B (Figure
3)
always operate at the same switching
frequency. The frequency is used to control transformer output voltage during the first
ignition of the lamps. The phase difference between the full-bridge halves A and B
voltages (V
A
and V
B
) controls the lamp current, as this determines the rms value of the
full-bridge inverter voltage V
A
- V
B
(Figure
