LCD display thereby optimizing the optical clarity while minimizing surface reflection The optically bonded filter also produces a secondary benefit it creates a protective surface over the face of the LCD display that guards the fragile liquid crystal material The SmartBright Backlight module consists of 31 cold cathode fluorescent bulbs CCFT that are stacked horizontally and housed within a rugged aluminum enclosure mounted to the back of the LCD panel Integral to the backlight enclosure is a custom engineered heat sink that dissipates the heat generated from the CCFTs away from the temperature sensitive liquid crystal material Two externally mounted exhaust fans draw filtered HEPA ambient air through the SmartBright Backlight assembly over the CCFTs via a series of internal baffles An additional cooling fan directs ambient room air across the heat sink and other internal electronics exhausting airflow through a series of ventilation holes located on the back of the enclosure The SmartBright Backlight assembly is powered by a pair of redundant DC AC inverters Each of the inverters produces high voltage output in excess of 2000 volts AC and drives up to 16 bulbs alternating bulb pattern In the event that a single inverter fails the other inverter will continue to produce uniform brightness across the entire viewing surface Failure of any of the 31 individual bulbs will not adversely affect the performance of the other CCFTs
