Display apparatus and method for controlling the same

Abstract

A display apparatus including a display panel including a substrate, a plurality of pixel circuits disposed on the substrate, and at least one sensing thin film transistor (TFT) configured to detect a current flowing through the plurality of pixel circuits; a temperature sensor disposed on the substrate and configured to detect a temperature of the substrate; a memory configured to store a look up table relating the current flowing through the plurality of pixel circuits to a first temperature of the display panel; and at least one processor configured to: determine the first temperature of the display panel based on the current flowing through the plurality of pixel circuits and the look-up table, determine a final temperature of the display panel based on a difference between the determined first temperature of the display panel and the temperature of the substrate detected by the temperature sensor.
