Abstract
In a period from temporal storage of a video signal to reading and displaying of the video signal, an average value 121 of the brightness levels obtained from a video signal before the video signal is stored in a storage means 3 and a predetermined target value 122 are used to perform a calculation by using a proportionality term and an integration term so that a quantity of limited electric currents is obtained. Moreover, the quantity of limited electric currents is provided with a non-response region or a hysteresis characteristic.
Claims8
A display apparatus having a characteristic that power consumption therein varies in accordance with variation of brightness of a displayed image and arranged in such a manner that a video signal is temporarily stored in a memory and the video signal is read out of the memory to be displayed thereon, said display apparatus comprising:
- a current limiter operatively connected to an input part that receives the video signal,
- said current limiter being arranged to receive the video signal before it is stored in the memory, said current limiter being arranged to obtain a quantity of a limited electric current in a period of time between when the video signal is temporarily stored in the memory and when the video signal is read out of the memory, and said current limiter being arranged to obtain said quantity of a limited electric current using a reference value and a value that is derived from brightness levels of the video signal, wherein
- said current limiter is further arranged to obtain a proportionality term,
- arranged to obtain an integration term,
- and arranged to obtain the quantity of a limited electric current using said proportionality term and said integration term.
