Abstract

A light emission control device includes: a first light emission control circuit outputting a first control signal and a second control signal; and a second light emission control circuit outputting a third control signal and a fourth control signal. The first light emission control circuit controls a phase of the second control signal based on a first PWM signal in a first PWM dimming mode. The second light emission control circuit controls a phase of the fourth control signal based on a second PWM signal in a second PWM dimming mode. The second light emission control circuit outputs the fourth control signal having a phase different from that of the second control signal in a first analog dimming mode and a second analog dimming mode.
