New Very Low-Profile Inverter from ERG Is Designed Around Custom IC FOR Closed-Loop Current Contol with Wide Input Voltage Range for Powering Single-Lamp LCDs



Endicott, NY, May 2004 - The new W6m Class DC-AC inverter from Endicott Research Group (ERG) Inc. provides an economical, high-efficiency power source with closed-loop current control, open lamp detection, wide input voltage range (8-18 VDC) and a very low profile of 6 mm for LCDs backlit by a single cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL).

Designed around a custom on-board IC for optimum performance in a very-low-profile, low-cost inverter, the W6m's closed loop current control provides a regulated output that maintains consistent lamp brightness, unaffected by variations in the input voltage, over a wide temperature range. It provides exceptionally high efficiency, and includes on-board dimming with low EMI emission.

The W6m is ideal for battery-powered and portable applications where regulated output and low EMI/RFI are important. It provides an excellent solution for virtually any single-lamp LCD that has a battery input voltage, including a range of possible applications in the automotive, medical and military markets involving anything that is battery-operated and portable.

The W6m has the same footprint as ERG's popular 8m Class single-lamp inverter and, like the 8m Class, is designed, manufactured and supported in the USA, with the fastest delivery in the industry - typically 4 weeks A.R.O.

Pricing for the W6m inverter is less than $9.00 each in production quantities. For details, contact Endicott Research Group.
