Abstract
A display device includes a controller detecting a black line, in which all light emitting diodes in one line are non-luminescence, counting a number of times (S) that display data indicating the black line is sent to the display panel in serial, halting a scanning operation to the display data indicating the black line, applying the time period for halting the scanning operation to another time period for displaying display data, which are next to the display data indicating the black line and which is not the display data indicating the black line, whereby the another time period for displaying display data is set to 'S+1' times longer than a stipulated time period, and sending a control signal to a column driver, which controls the column driver to set a drive current or voltage applied from a power source to a 1/(S+1) of the stipulated value for the 'S+1' time period.
