But when the back light part is provided, the power consumption required for the display increases, and the serviceable life of the battery is shortened in the case of a portable information processing apparatus which uses the battery as the power supply. For this reason, the luminance adjustment of the display part is conventionally made manually by the user by taking into consideration the life of the battery according to a first method or, the luminance of the display part is forcibly set to a minimum luminance value according to a second method.
- the first method the user must constantly be aware of the life of the battery and manually adjust the luminance of the display part, thereby complicating the operation of the information processing apparatus.
- the second method when the second method is used, the display is difficult to see if the minimum luminance value is small, but the effect of reducing the power consumption is small if the minimum luminance value is relatively large.
- the operation of the information processing apparatus becomes complicated and the operation characteristic of the information processing apparatus becomes poor.
- the second method there were problems in that the display is difficult to see if the minimum luminance value is small, and the effect of reducing the power consumption is small if the minimum luminance value is relatively large, thereby making it impossible to simultaneously realize a display which is easy to see and a low power consumption.

- this operation is notified to the information processing part 4, and the controller of the luminance control part 3 also has the function of automatically updating the minimum luminance value to a luminance value at the time when this operation is made in response to luminance setting information from the information processing part 4.
- the information processing part 4 supplies display information to the display part 1 based on an input made from an input device (not shown) such as a keyboard, and supplies to the luminance control part 3 the luminance setting information related to the luminance value that is set from the input device or the setting part described above.
