Abstract
Disclosed is an user-friendly display device for operating with a power consumption desired by the user. The display device comprises: a characteristic acquisition unit for obtaining a characteristic indicative of a correspondence relationship between an average peak level and the number of display pulses corresponding to a target power consumption; an average peak level detector for detecting an average peak level of an input image signal; a driving control unit for determining the number of display pulses corresponding to the detected average peak level with reference to the characteristic; a driver for generating a display pulse a number of times equal to the number determined by the driving control unit; and a display panel for receiving the display pulses supplied from the driver to emit light at a luminance depending on the number of display pulses.
