Solid-state, color-balanced backlight with wide illumination range

摘要

A color balanced solid-state backlight provides feedback control of each color using a single photodetector by imposing a modulation pattern on the solid-state lamps revealing individual colors to the photodetector. The photodetector signal provides feedback controlling color balance over a small range of instantaneous brightness less than larger range of average brightness of the display to provide for accurate color balance throughout a large range of average brightnesses.
