FLAT PANEL DISPLAY HAVING DYNAMIC ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM AND IMAGE DISPLAY METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A flat panel display comprising:
- a four-color conversion unit comprising a preliminary conversion lookup table, the four-color conversion unit being utilized for providing a first set of four color image signals corresponding to three color image input signals based on the preliminary conversion lookup table and providing a plurality of corresponding conversion scaling factors;
a dynamic backlight control unit, electrically connected to the four-color conversion unit, for generating a backlight adjusting signal according to the conversion scaling factors, wherein the four-color conversion unit is further utilized for converting the three color image input signals into a second set of four color image signals according to the backlight adjusting signal;
a backlight module, electrically connected to the dynamic backlight control unit, for providing a backlight output having an intensity adjusted according to the backlight adjusting signal;
a source driver, electrically connected to the four-color conversion unit, for providing a plurality of data signals according to the second set of four color image signals; and
a pixel array unit, electrically connected to the source driver, for displaying an image according to the data signals and the backlight output.

Abstract
A flat panel display includes a four-color conversion unit, a backlight control unit, a backlight module, and a pixel array. The four-color conversion unit provides a first set of four color image signals corresponding to three color image input signals based on a preliminary conversion lookup table and provides corresponding conversion scaling factors. The backlight control unit generates a backlight adjusting factor based on the conversion scaling factors. The backlight module provides a backlight output having an intensity adjusted according to the backlight adjusting factor. The four-color conversion unit further provides a second set of four color image signals corresponding to the three color image input signals based on the backlight adjusting factor. The pixel array displays an image according to the second set of four color image signals and the backlight output.
