BACKLIGHT CONTROLLER AND DISPLAY

摘要

A PWM generation circuit generates a PWMpulse signal having a variable duty ratio in order to control the luminance of a backlight. An edge detection circuit outputs a leading edge signal in response to the rise of the PWM pulse signal generated by the PWM generation circuit. A set value pulse generation circuit generates a set width pulse signal in response to the rise of the leading edge signal. The pulse width of the set width pulse signal is set so as to be larger than the minimum PWM pulse width. An OR gate calculates the logical sum of the set width pulse signal and the PWM pulse signal. An inverter circuit feeds a driving signal to a backlight on the basis of an output signal of the OR gate.
