Abstract: A light fixture includes a CCFL and a driving circuit. The driving circuit includes a first voltage converter and a high-voltage inverter. The first voltage converter provides a DC voltage signal according to a power signal. The high-voltage inverter comprises a second voltage converter and a first transformer. The second voltage converter converts the DC voltage signal into an AC voltage signal. The first transformer is corresponding to the first CCFL and includes a first primary winding circuit and a first secondary winding circuit. The first primary winding circuit has a first input voltage signal in response to the AC voltage signal. The first secondary winding circuit is coupled with the first input voltage signal to generate a first output voltage signal for driving the first CCFL. The first primary and secondary winding circuits belong to a primary-side circuit and receive the same ground voltage signal.

Abstract: This invention relates to a power supply that integrates a rectifier/filter's circuitry and a converter's circuitry with an inverter to reduce space occupied and increase power efficiency. The power supply includes: a rectifier/filter, a DC-DC converter and a DC-AC inverter. The rectifier/filter, connected to an alternating current (AC) input terminal, converts the input AC into a direct current (DC). The DC-DC converter and the DC-AC inverter are parallel to each other with one end concurrently connected to the rectifier/filter's output and the other end respectively outputting the desired powers. As such, DC-DC converter reduces the converted DC voltage to lower DC voltages to power all circuits except for the lamp and DC-AC inverter converts the converted DC voltage into higher AC voltage output to drive the lamp.
