Method for driving display device

Abstract

A device for driving a backlight assembly of a display device includes: a block division unit for dividing the input image into plural blocks and a duty cycle determination unit. The duty cycle determination unit is used for: generating a histogram of gray levels of pixels of each block; obtaining a high gray level and a median gray level of each block according to the histogram; obtaining a high gray quantity based on the high gray level and a median gray quantity of the median gray level of each block according to the histogram; obtaining a weight value of each block according to the high gray level, the high gray quantity, the median gray quantity, and a lookup table; and calculating a duty cycle of a driving signal of each block according to the weight value, the high gray level, and the median gray level.
