Display device

1. A display device, comprising:

a display body including a panel;

a housing spaced apart from the display body to transmit or receive a signal to or from the display body, wherein the housing comprises a control unit; and

a cable configured to connect the display body and the housing,

wherein the display body further includes a converter configured to convert power supplied from the housing via the cable into driving power for the panel, wherein the converter is formed with a plurality of channels to which converted power is output such that a number of the plurality of channels selectively operate according to a load of the panel, wherein the control unit is configured to determine a number of operation channels among the plurality of channels according to a current supplied to the panel.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the housing supplies power to the display body at a first voltage, and

wherein the converter converts the first voltage into a second voltage lower than the first voltage and supplies power to the panel at the second voltage.

3. The display device of claim 2 , wherein the first voltage is 35 V or more,

wherein the second voltage is in a range of 20 V or more to 25 V or less.

4. The display device of claim 3 , wherein the first voltage is 50 V or more.

5. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the housing includes a power supply unit configured to supply power to the display body;

the control unit is further configured to allow an input image to be output to the panel; and

a housing connector connected to the cable.

6. The display device of claim 5 , wherein the power supply unit boosts voltage of power supplied to the display body to a voltage which is higher than a driving voltage of the panel and supplies boosted voltage to the housing connector.

7. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the display body further includes

a body connector connected to the cable to receive power and an image signal, and

a timing controller configured to receive power obtained through conversion by the converter and the image signal.

8. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the converter performs conversion of power through Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) control.

9. The display device of claim 1 , wherein a single channel operates when the current supplied to the panel is less than a reference current, and

wherein two channels operate in an interleaved scheme when the current supplied to the panel is equal to or greater than the reference current.

10. The display device of claim 9 , wherein the housing further includes a memory configured to store a table in which ranges of a current supplied to the panel are mapped to numbers of operating channels.

11. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the display body includes a plurality of converters.

12. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the converter includes at least one coil.

13. The display device of claim 12 , wherein, when the converter includes a plurality of coils connected in series to one another, the plurality of coils are arranged not to be side-by-side to one another.
