  • Hi Hiroshi-san,
    When one string is open, the others should be still on.
    May I know when all the six strings are connected well, does the driver working normally? Normal startup and stable working ?

    I am confused about your waveforms. IF the LED string is open, why the voltage of TP258 and TP257 is the same.  There should be no such high voltage on TP258 since it is open. 

    what is the LED voltage here? Please make sure voltage on IFB1~4 doesn't meet IFB ovp when Vout reaching Vout OVP voltage. 

  • Hello Caryss-san,

    Thank your for replying, I had told your offer to the customer.

    Now, re-check and measurement will be taken, please wait for a while.

    Thanks and best regards,

    Hiro
