Method for back light control and apparatus thereof
A method for backlight control includes: receiving a display synchronization signal; generating a backlight control signal according to the display synchronization signal; and driving a backlight source according to the backlight control signal. An apparatus for backlight control includes: a signal receiving circuit, for receiving a display synchronization signal; a control circuit, coupled to the signal receiving circuit, for generating a backlight control signal according to the display synchronization signal; and a driving circuit, coupled to the control circuit, for driving a backlight source according to the backlight control signal.
1. A method for backlight control, comprising:
receiving a display synchronization signal;
generating a backlight control signal according to the display synchronization signal, wherein the step of generating the backlight control signal according to the display synchronization signal comprises:
frequency-dividing the display synchronization signal to generate the backlight control signal, wherein the frequency-dividing is controlled by the switching frequency, and the switching frequency drives a backlight source continuously to switch between a plurality of distinct luminous output states; and
driving the backlight source according to the backlight control signal for displaying a corresponding frame;
wherein the backlight source is switched to one of the distinct luminous output states for displaying the corresponding frame.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of distinct luminous output states comprises a full-light backlight state and a full-dark backlight state.
3. An apparatus for backlight control, comprising:
a signal receiving circuit, for receiving a display synchronization signal;
a control circuit, coupled to the signal receiving circuit, for generating a backlight control signal according to the display synchronization signal, wherein the control circuit comprises:
a frequency-dividing unit, for frequency-dividing the display synchronization signal to generate the backlight control signal, wherein the frequency-dividing is controlled by the switching frequency, and the switching frequency drives a backlight source continuously to switch between a plurality of distinct luminous output states; and
a driving circuit, coupled to the control circuit, for driving the backlight source according to the backlight control signal for displaying a corresponding frame;
wherein the backlight source is switched to one of the distinct luminous output states for displaying the corresponding frame.
4. The apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the plurality of distinct luminous output states comprises a full-light backlight state and a full-dark backlight state.
