Abstract
The present invention provides an LED backlight system and display device. Backlight system includes power source module, LED array, master switch module, current detection module, current equalizer module and current shunt module. LED array is connected to power source module and includes LED strings with common anode. Master switch module includes first switch transistors for receiving switch control PWM signal of LED strings. Current detection module outputs current feedback signals corresponding to currents of LED strings. Current equalizer module is connected to current detection and includes equalizer control unit and equalizer switch unit. Based on current feedback signal, equalizer control unit controls on-and-off of equalizer switch unit. Current shunt module is connected in parallel with current equalizer module and performs current shunt on current equalizer module. As such, the present invention reduces energy-consumption of current equalizer module and temperature of LED drive chip.
