1. A digital photo frame (DPF) comprising:
- a power management unit connected to a power source, configured for distributing power from the power source to the DPF;
a display panel comprising a reflective structure;
a backlight unit connected to the power management unit, configured for illuminating the display panel after being turned on;
a touch sensing unit configured for detecting whether the DPF is touched by a user and producing a touch signal when the DPF is touched by the user; and
a processing unit connected to the touch sensing unit, configured for controlling the power management unit to discontinue power from the power source to the backlight once receiving the touch signal.

Abstract
A digital photo frame (DPF) includes a power source, a power management unit, a display panel, a backlight unit, a touch sensing unit and a processing unit. The display panel includes a reflective structure. The power management unit is used to manage the power supply from the power source to the DPF. The touch sensing unit is used to produce a touch signal when detecting the DPF is touched by a user. The processing unit receives the touch signal, and controls the management unit to discontinue the power from the power source to the backlight unit, therefore display panel reflects images via the reflective structure.

8. A method of changing the display state of a digital photo frame (DPF), the DPF comprising:
-
a power management unit; a display panel comprising a mirror film; a touch sensing unit; a processing unit, the method comprising; detecting whether the DPF is touched by a person via the touch sensing unit; producing a touch signal when the touch sensing unit detects a person touch the DPF; and controlling the power management unit to discontinue the power from a power source to the backlight unit when the processing unit receives the detection signal, therefore, the backlight unit is turned off and the display panel reflects image. - View Dependent Claims (9)
