Abstract
An apparatus for controlling a display having a backlight module provided with a first set of units and a display panel provided with a second set of units is provided. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a reference value generator, a control value generator, and a compensation circuit. The reference value generator generates a reference value representative of a portion of pixels contained in an input image associated with one of the second set of units. The control value generator generates a control value to control one of the first set of units in view of the reference value. The compensation circuit adjusts the portion of pixels contained in the input image in view of the control value. The one of the first units is associated with the one of the second units.
