The present invention provides a light emission control device that can drive a plurality of cold cathode fluorescent tubes independently only by connecting a plurality of piezoelectric transformers to only one piezoelectric inverter circuit. A first phase control portion that outputs a signal for changing a phase of the third and the fourth driving control signals with respect to a phase of the first and the second driving control signals to the second driving portion, and a second phase control portion that outputs a signal for changing a phase of the fifth and the sixth driving control signals with respect to a phase of the first and the second driving control signals to the third driving portion are provided in the piezoelectric inverter circuit. Thus, the phase difference of the driving control signals is controlled, so that the output powers to the plurality of cold cathode fluorescent tubes are controlled.
