Abstract
A display apparatus and a drive circuit for adjusting a screen refresh rate of the display apparatus and a method thereof are disclosed. The display apparatus comprises an OLED diode display array and a drive circuit. The drive circuit comprises a detection unit, a clock generating unit, and a timing control unit. The detection unit determines whether a plurality of frames displayed by the OLED diode display array are configured as a dynamic frame. The detection unit generates a first control signal when the displayed frames are not configured as a dynamic frame, and the detection unit generates a second control signal when the displayed frames are configured as a dynamic frame. The clock generating unit generates a clock signal, the frequency of which is a first frequency in response to the first signal, or a second frequency in response to the second signal. The first frequency is greater than the second frequency. The timing control unit sets the screen refresh rate of the display apparatus in response to the frequency of the clock signal.
