DISPLAY APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A display apparatus comprising a display unit and a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) provided in a backlight that illuminates the display unit, the display apparatus includes: a power supplier; a current detector which detects a value of a current flowing in each of the LEDs; a current adjusting unit which compares a target current value which is supplied to the LED with a current value detected by the current detector and controls the value of the current flowing in the LED; and a controller which determines the target current value based on grayscale information of a video signal which is displayed on the display unit, provides the target current value to the current adjusting unit, and provides a virtual target current value that is higher than the target current value to the current adjusting unit for a predetermined time period if the target current value is determined.
