Abstract

The invention discloses a backlight apparatus. The backlight apparatus includes a power source, a lamp, a balance transformer, a detecting circuit, a judging module, and a controlling module. The balance transformer includes a primary winding electrically connected to the power source and a secondary winding corresponding to the primary winding and electrically connected to the lamp. The detecting circuit is used for detecting a current generated by the secondary winding and generating a first voltage according to the current. The judging module is used for judging whether the value of the first voltage is smaller than a default value. The controlling module is used for controlling the power source according to a judgment made by the judging module.
