Abstract
A display driver according to the present invention includes a control part and a fault detection circuit. The control part sequentially incorporates first fault detection data and second fault detection data into a video signal during non-display periods of the video signal. The fault detection circuit binarizes each of a first pixel driving voltage and a second pixel driving voltage with a predetermined threshold voltage to obtain a first signal and a second signal. The first pixel driving voltage is generated based on the first fault detection data. The second pixel driving voltage is generated based on the second fault detection data. The fault detection circuit determines whether the first signal and the second signal match and outputs a fault detection signal that indicates a presence of a fault when the first signal and the second signal match.
