Direct Drive CCFL (Cold Cathode use of either a DC voltage or a PWM
Fluorescent Lamp) Controller. It uses input to simplify design. Programmable
new circuit design techniques (patents polarity brightness control is retained,
pending) and combines digital and linear except in the case of externally clocked
circuits with an advanced BiCMOS digital dimming. Two onboard LDO
