PNW-PMN-PZT ceramics were fabricated with the variations of Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ addition and their microstructural and piezoelectric characteristics were investigated. When the amount of Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ increased, grain size decreased gradually. At 0.3wt％ Nb$_2$O$_{5}$ which is the same weight percent with Fe$_2$O$_3$, maximum tetragonality(c/a) and density were shown due to the complexed doping effects. Also, this composition that showed Qm of 2,041, kp of 0.55, grain size of 2.5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and $\varepsilon$r of 1704 were proper for high power application. Using this composition, Rosen-type piezoelectric transformer was fabricated as the size of 1 ${\times}$ 16 ${\times}$ 5㎣ and its electrical characteristics were investigated with the variations of load resistance and driving frequency. At the resistance of 200㏀, maximum step-up ratio of 13.68 was shown. After driving PDA CCFL for 25 min using the inverter circuit, at driving frequency of 214.4KHz, input voltage of 31.78 V and input current of 21.1mA were measured at the input part of piezoelectric transformer. And then, output voltage of 293.2 V and output current of 2.2mA were shown at the output part of piezoelectric transformer. At the same time, efficiency of 96.2％ and temperature rise of 3.5$^{\circ}C$ were appeared at the piezoelectric transformer.ormer.

In the $(Pb_{1-x}M_x)[(Mn_{1/3}Sb_{2/3})_{0.05}Zr_yTi_{0.95-y}]O_3$ system, where M=Ca and Sr, the piezoelectric properties were evaluated to examine the possibility of application to piezoelectric transformer. A Rosen-type piezoelectric transformer was formed, then the electrical properties of voltage step-up ratio, frequency characteristics etc. were analysed. The morphotropic phase boundary was determined to be y=0.475 in $Pb[(Mn_{1/3}Sb_{2/3})_{0.05}Zr_yTi_{0.95-y}]O_3$ system and the piezoelectric properties of this composition was kp=0.59, Qm=1600 and $\varepsilon_r$=1150. Moreover, when 1-2 mol% of Sr are substituted, enhanced piezoelectric properties of kp=0.61, Qm=1600 and $\varepsilon_r$=1400 were shown. The temperature rising (ΔT) of a piezoelectric transformer with $Pb[Mn_{1/3}Sb_{2/3})_{0.05}Zr_{0.475}Ti_{0.475})]O_3 $ composition was $10^{\circ}C$, and the voltage step-up ratio was 500 when the output voltage was 4000V, whereas the ΔT was below $3^{\circ}C$ and the resonant frequency variation ($\Delta f_r$) as a function of load resistance was below 5% when the output voltage was 2000 V. These characteristics are superior to the properties of materials, which were substituted by Ca or without substitution.

In this paper, to apply piezoelectric transformer for PDA backlight inverter, piezoelectric transformer using the composition which $Nb_2O_5$ added into PNW-PMN-PZT ceramics was fabricated as Rosen-type one with the size of $1165mm^3$. And their electrical characteristics were investigated with the variations of load resistance and driving frequency And then, the driving circuit for PDA CCFL(0.6W) which composed of the two MOSFETs connecting in series was manufactured using piezoelectric transformer, VCO and one-chip microprocessor. After driving for 25 min using the proposed circuit for PDA CCFL(0.6W), driving frequency of 214.4kHz, input voltage of 31.78 V and input current of 21.1mA were shown. And then, output voltage of 293.2 V and output current of 2.2mA were shown. At the same time, efficiency of 96.2$\%$ and temperature rise of $3.6^{\circ}C$ were appeared at the piezoelectric transformer.
