A backlight control circuit for a surface light emitting device is provided. The backlight control circuit includes a driving circuit. The driving circuit is configured to generate a plurality of driving currents to drive the surface light emitting device such that a plurality of backlight blocks of the surface light emitting device generate a plurality of brightness values. The surface light emitting device is divided into a first backlight area and a second backlight area. The second backlight area is closer to an edge of the surface light emitting device than the first backlight area. A first driving current of the plurality of driving currents is utilized for driving the light source of the first backlight area. A second driving current of the plurality of driving currents is utilized for driving the light source of the second backlight area. The second driving current is greater than the first driving current.

Backlight control circuit

A backlight control method for a surface light-emitting device is provided. The backlight control method includes generating a plurality of driving currents to drive the surface light-emitting device such that a plurality of backlight zones generate a plurality of brightness values, measuring the plurality of brightness values of the plurality of backlight zones, calculating a plurality of uniformities of the plurality of backlight zones according to the plurality of brightness values and setting a plurality of target uniformities, generating a plurality of adjustment values according to the plurality of uniformities, the plurality of target uniformities and a plurality of adjustment coefficients corresponding to the plurality of backlight zones, and generating a plurality of adjusted driving currents to drive the plurality of backlight zones according to the plurality of adjustment values and the plurality of driving currents.

Backlight control method and backlight control circuit

A flat illumination device is provided, and includes a frame, a light guide plate, and at least one light source. The frame includes an inner wall, wherein the inner wall has a reflective surface. The light guide plate is disposed in the frame, and has a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, and at least one light incident surface adjoining the first and second surfaces. The first surface faces the reflective surface, and there is a distance between the first surface and the reflective surface. At least one pattern formed from mesh points or microstructures is disposed on at least one of the first surface and the second surface. The light source is disposed in the frame, and is adjacent to the light incident surface for providing light to the light guide plate.
