Liquid crystal display and method for controlling same

摘要

An LCD includes an OSD system and a gamma correction circuit. The OSD system includes an input system for setting gamma values. The gamma correction circuit includes a look-up table. The look-up table includes a plurality of sub-look-up tables, each corresponding to a gamma value. Each sub-look-up table stores a plurality of original gray level values and a plurality of corrected gray level values corresponding to the original gray level values. The gamma correction-circuit receives an original gray level value corresponding to a video signal, and searches a sub-look-up table corresponding to a set gamma value for a corresponding corrected gray level value. A method for controlling the LCD is also provided.
