Arcing on the transformer's secondary side.

When an LCD display cuts out after 1–2 seconds, the LX1692 protection loop is actively performing its job. Technicians must isolate whether the controller is accurately spotting a real high-voltage failure or shutting down due to component drift. Step 1: Physical Component Inspection

: It supports analog dimming, digital (PWM) dimming, or a combination of both for a wide dimming range (> 60:1). Voltage Regulation

Use a multimeter to check for consistent voltage at the feedback pin while the inverter starts. Use an oscilloscope to view the wave shape. Bypass/Adjust (Forcing Protection Low):

Dual-channel active voltage/current comparison feedback lines LED Strings Boost / Multichannel Buck Immediate overvoltage/open-string digital line protection

In a standard application diagram, Pin 5 does not connect directly to the high-voltage lamp output. Instead, it receives a scaled-down, rectified DC voltage from a feedback network.

Alternatively, forcing a steady DC voltage that simulates a "good lamp" status onto the sensing pin can keep the IC from shutting down. 4. Troubleshooting Checklist

Shuts down the controller if a short is detected in the lamp or secondary circuit. Over Voltage Protection (OVP):

In RUN mode, if the current level at ISNS drops below 0.3V for 256 consecutive clock counts, a fault latch is set, and the IC shuts down.
