Specifications

The light source for most flat panel displays is a cold cathode fluorescent backlight.
These backlights run on high AC voltage provided by an inverter that converts the
supplied DC power to AC and steps its voltage up for start-up. Once the backlight is
started, the inverter drops the voltage down to its operating level.
