Backlight for Large-area LCD-TVs using Light Emitting Diodes

  • Published : 2005.07.19

Abstract

A backlight for large-area LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)-TVs has been developed using Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs). Performances of the backlight and the methods driving the LEDs are introduced in this research. A spectral relationship between the LEDs and the color filters of a panel were investigated as well. In order to realize a CRT like dynamic effect, the area-focused luminance control (AFLC) technology was adopted in developing the backlight. Thus, a possibility of applying the LEDs to the backlight for large-area LCD-TVs was systematically proved.
