A method of driving a light source includes receiving an alternating current ('AC') voltage from outside, generating a first direct current ('DC') voltage based on the AC voltage, generating a second DC voltage, corresponding to a difference between a driving voltage of a light source part and the first DC voltage, based on the first DC voltage, and outputting a sum of the first DC voltage and the second DC voltage to the light source part.

Method of driving light source, light source module for performing the method and display apparatus having the light source module

A connector for a light source module includes a body portion and a terminal portion. The body portion includes a first opening portion and a second opening portion. The first opening portion receives a portion of the light source module. The second opening portion receives a portion of a light source driver which drives the light source module. The terminal portion includes a first terminal and a second terminal. The first terminal is in the first opening portion of the body portion. The second terminal is connected to the first terminal. The second terminal is in the second opening portion of the body portion.

Connector for light source module and backlight assembly having the same

A method of driving a light source apparatus includes inverting a direct current voltage to generate a first alternating current voltage, transforming the first alternating current voltage into a second alternating current voltage having a voltage level that is greater than a voltage level of the first alternating current voltage, compensating a driving alternating current voltage based on the second alternating current voltage to generate a compensated driving alternating current voltage such that a substantially equal current flows through each light emitting string of a plurality of light emitting string included in the light source apparatus, and rectifying the compensated driving alternating current voltage to apply a driving voltage to the light emitting strings.
