Abstract
A dithering method and associated apparatus is provided. The method synthesizes a dither pattern including a plurality of elements. At least two of the plurality of elements are of a same value, and at least two of the elements of the same value respectively associate with different driving polarities to prevent flickering. While sub-pixel data of a sub-pixel corresponds between two predetermined color levels of the sub-pixel, a color level displayed by the sub-pixel is determined from the two predetermined color levels according to a sum of the sub-pixel data and the element corresponding to the sub-pixel.
