The bulbs inside scanners (before transitioning to LED, anyway) were cold cathode fluorescent tubes that emit a fairly wide bandwidth of light. They were purpose-built to produce a very specific type ...

Japan’s Sanken Electric has developed a new type of cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) backlight for LCD TVs that’s as power-efficient as LED backlights but is supposedly up to 60% cheaper to ...

Hi all. I've had two LCD screens die on me in the last month and as a newly minted EE I would like to repair them myself. The devices in question are a Viewsonic VA720 and an IBM T22. On each screen ...

The MAX8759 integrated cold-cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) inverter controller is designed to drive CCFLs using a full-bridge resonant inverter. The resonant operation ensures reliable striking and ...

I'm looking for options to see if there are smart bulbs to replace standard 4' CCFL bulbs in a long row so that they could be independently turned on/off rather than having a full bank on a single ...

Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamps (CCFL) are used as white-light sources to backlight liquid crystal displays (LCDs). CCFLs offer many desirable features, but they also have unique characteristics that ...

The cathode ray tube that until recent years served as the principal television and video display device generates its own light. The CRT's electron beam bombards electroluminescent phosphors, which ...

Anyone that follows green technology will know that the LED or CCFL light bulbs are much more energy efficient than the traditional incandescent bulb is. Philips has announced a new green LED bulb ...
