Abstract

For several years, many researchers have proposed LED backlight dimming technology for low power consumption and high contrast ratio. One of the major issues plaguing RGB LED with 2D dimming technology is color shift. This undesirable variation makes it difficult to use RGB LED as light sources in the backlight system. This paper describes the useful method of the optical feedback system for 2D dimming RGB LED backlight. The test results show that our proposed method is very suitable for the 2D dimming technology.
