Abstract

The display device that includes a backlight module and a control circuit is introduced. The control circuit divides an input image to a plurality of blocks, calculates a backlight parameter of each of the blocks, calculates a first duty cycle shift and a second duty cycle shift according to a plurality of duty cycles in the backlight parameter, calculates a first weight value and a second weight value according to a maximum duty cycle, a minimum duty cycle, and a duty cycle mean, and calculates a peaking duty cycle the first duty cycle shift, the second duty cycle shift, the first weight value and the second weight value. The control circuit is further configured to generate an output backlight parameter according to the peaking duty cycle, wherein the corresponding lighting unit of the backlight module is driven according to the output backlight parameter.
