ABSTRACT:
An inverter controller for an LCD panel display with automatic brightness adjustment circuitry is provided. In one exemplary embodiment, the controller includes a look-up table that receives a signal indicative of the ambient light around the LCD panel and generates a signal corresponding to desired panel brightness. The signal corresponding to the desired panel brightness is, in turn, used as a threshold signal in a conventional feedback inverter topology supplying power to lamps associated with the LCD panel. In another exemplary embodiment, a master controller is provided that includes a light sensor controller to poll a slave light sensor to generate a signal indicative of the ambient light around the LCD panel.
