Abstract
A display device may comprise: a display panel configured to display an image; a timing controller configured to control a data signal and a gate signal; and a compensation unit configured to compensate for luminance of the image displayed on the display panel. The compensation unit detects generation of a power-on signal, calculates a temperature difference between a reference saturation temperature and a current IC temperature, and controls a starting level of a compensation algorithm based on the temperature difference.
Claims20
A display device, comprising:
- a display panel configured to display an image;
- a timing controller configured to control a data signal and a gate signal;
- and
- a compensation unit configured to compensate for luminance of the image that is displayed on the display panel,
- wherein the compensation unit,
- detects generation of a power-on signal,
- calculates a temperature difference between a reference saturation temperature and a current integrated circuit (IC) temperature, and
- controls a starting level of a compensation algorithm based on the temperature difference.
