Digital control system for lcd backlights

A method of current control for multiple luminent devices comprising:

• sensing individual output information for each luminent device of a multiple device array;
• processing the output information to produce individual current control signals for each luminent device;
• and
• adjusting an operating current applied to each luminent device in accord with the current control signals generated by a micro controller unit.

An apparatus for current control of multiple luminent devices comprising:

• sensors for sensing individual output information for each luminent device of a multiple device array;
• a digital control circuit for processing the output information to produce individual current control signals for each luminent device;
• and
• a current control circuit for adjusting an individual operating current applied to each luminent device in accord with the individual current control signals.
