DRIVING APPARATUS OF LIGHT-SOURCE MODULE, LIGHT-SOURCE APPARATUS HAVING THE DRIVING APPARATUS, DRIVING METHOD OF THE LIGHT-SOURCE MODULE AND DISPLAY APPARATUS HAVING THE DRIVING APPARATUS
摘要
<p>A light source module includes a plurality of light-emitting blocks. A local-dimming driver drives the light-emitting blocks based on a received clock signal (first reference clock) and received dimming levels. The clock signal is input to a liquid crystal display panel and is also input to the local-dimming driver but is delayed within the local-dimming driver by fixed propagation delay. A delay modeling part performs modeling of the fixed propagation delay amount. The clock signal input to the local-dimming driver is first phase-compensated (delayed) by a phase compensation amount to synchronize the driving signals output by the local-dimming driver with the clock signal. The sum of the modeled propagation delay amount and the phase compensation amount is equal to an integral multiple of the period of the clock signal. The driving signal of the light-emitting blocks are synchronized and in phase with the clock signal.</p>
