In the figure, the display brightness control method includes the following steps. In step S101, a plurality of illumination levels of the backlight module of the display device are defined. Next, in step S102, the low-intensity pixel ratio of the image data is analyzed. The low-brightness pixel ratio is the ratio of the number of pixels whose luminance value is lower than a predetermined low luminance value to the total number of pixels of the image data. Please also refer to Figure 2, which uses grayscale 32 as the preset low brightness value, and counts the grayscale values of all the pixels of the image data, which is lower than the ratio of 32. In Figure 2, the low-brightness pixel ratio is divided into three sections: high ratio, medium ratio, or low ratio. In the first region, the pixel with the grayscale value lower than 32 accounts for more than 90% of the entire image. A high ratio indicates that the image is a dim brightness; in the second region, a pixel with a grayscale value lower than 32 occupies between 80% and 90% of the entire image, and the medium ratio indicates that the image is a general brightness. Image; in the third region, the pixel with the grayscale value lower than 32 occupies less than 80% of the whole image, and the low ratio indicates that the image is a bright image. In step S103, the processing module of the display device is used to analyze the highest brightness value and the lowest brightness value of the image data. Finally, the processing module using the display device selects one of the plurality of illumination levels according to the low brightness pixel ratio, the highest brightness value, and the lowest brightness value, and controls the backlight module to emit light at the selected illumination level. In this embodiment, the luminance value is represented by 256 gray scale values from 0 to 255, but the number of gray scales of the present invention is not limited thereto.

其中,當影像資料係為接近之全暗亮度時,執行最小亮度之亮度,亦即控制背光模組於最低發光等級;當影像資料係為標準亮度時,執行典型高亮度之亮度,亦即控制背光模組於較高發光等級;當影像資料係為標準暗度時,執行典型低亮度之亮度,亦即控制背光模組於較低發光等級;當影像資料係為接近之全亮亮度時,執行最大亮度之亮度,亦即控制背光模組於最高發光等級。實施上,較高發光等級之亮度值較佳為最高發光等級之亮度值之70%~90%,而較低發光等級之亮度值較佳為最高發光等級之亮度值之20%~30%。Wherein, when the image data is close to the full dark brightness, the brightness of the minimum brightness is performed, that is, the backlight module is controlled to the lowest light level; when the image data is the standard brightness, the brightness of the typical high brightness is performed, that is, the control is performed. The backlight module is at a higher illumination level; when the image data is a standard darkness, the brightness of the typical low brightness is performed, that is, the backlight module is controlled at a lower illumination level; when the image data is close to the full brightness level, The brightness of the maximum brightness is performed, that is, the backlight module is controlled to the highest illumination level. In practice, the luminance value of the higher illumination level is preferably 70% to 90% of the luminance value of the highest illumination level, and the luminance value of the lower illumination level is preferably 20% to 30% of the luminance value of the highest illumination level.

執行何種狀態的條件分別以低亮度像素比例及畫面中最亮的等級做為判斷的依據。其分述如下:影像資料之低亮度像素比例係大於等於0.9及小於等於1之間,且畫面中最亮的等級小於等於4時,選擇較低發光等級。The conditions for performing the state are based on the low-brightness pixel ratio and the brightest level in the picture. The description is as follows: when the low-brightness pixel ratio of the image data is greater than or equal to 0.9 and less than or equal to 1, and the brightest level in the picture is less than or equal to 4, the lower illumination level is selected.

影像資料之低亮度像素比例係介於0.9~1之間,且畫面中最亮的等級灰階值大於220時,選擇較高發光等級。The low-brightness pixel ratio of the image data is between 0.9 and 1, and the brightest level of the grayscale value in the picture is greater than 220, and the higher illumination level is selected.

影像資料之低亮度像素比例係介於0.9~1之間,且畫面中最亮的灰階值介於5~220之間時,選擇較低發光等級。The low-brightness pixel ratio of the image data is between 0.9 and 1, and when the brightest grayscale value in the picture is between 5 and 220, the lower illumination level is selected.

影像資料之低亮度像素比例係介於0.8~0.9之間,且畫面中最亮的灰階值大於220之間時,選擇較高發光等級。The low-brightness pixel ratio of the image data is between 0.8 and 0.9, and when the brightest grayscale value in the picture is greater than 220, the higher illumination level is selected.

影像資料之低亮度像素比例係介於0.8~0.9之間,且畫面中最亮的灰階值小於220時,選擇較低發光等級。The low-brightness pixel ratio of the image data is between 0.8 and 0.9, and when the brightest grayscale value in the picture is less than 220, the lower illumination level is selected.

影像資料之低亮度像素比例係小於等於0.8及大於等於0時,且畫面中最暗的灰階值大於252之間時,選擇最高發光等級。When the low-brightness pixel ratio of the image data is less than or equal to 0.8 and greater than or equal to 0, and the darkest grayscale value in the picture is greater than 252, the highest illumination level is selected.

影像資料之低亮度像素比例係小於等於0.8及大於等於0時,且畫面中最暗的灰階值小於252之間時,選擇較高發光等級。When the low-intensity pixel ratio of the image data is less than or equal to 0.8 and greater than or equal to 0, and the darkest grayscale value in the picture is less than 252, a higher illumination level is selected.

參考第2圖之示意圖,橫軸表示其低亮度像素比例的比率,縱軸表示其所對應的亮度。舉例而言,在區域I,判斷的條件係表示當低亮度像素比例介於90%~100%之間時,若畫面中最亮的等級≦4,執行最小亮度;若畫面中最亮的等級>220,執行典型高亮度;若4<畫面中最亮的等級≦220,執行典型低亮度。在區域II,判斷的條件係表示當低亮度像素比例介於80%~90%之間時,若畫面中最亮的等級>220,執行典型高以及亮度畫面中最亮的等級<220,執行典型低亮度。在區域III,判斷的條件係表示當低亮度像素比例介於0%~80%之間時,若畫面中最暗的等級>252,執行最大亮度以及畫面中最暗的等級<252,執行典型高亮度。此外,最大亮度可為面板出廠時的預設值,而最小亮度可透過利用脈衝寬度調變(PWM)或是軟體的方式進行調整。較佳地,典型高亮度係為最大亮度之90%,以及典型低亮度係為最大亮度之25%。然而,在實際上,典型高亮度可容許接受在最大亮度之80%~90%,典型低亮度係可容許接受在最大亮度之20~30%。Referring to the schematic diagram of Fig. 2, the horizontal axis represents the ratio of the ratio of the low luminance pixels, and the vertical axis represents the luminance corresponding thereto. For example, in the area I, the condition judged is that when the low-brightness pixel ratio is between 90% and 100%, if the brightest level ≦4 in the picture, the minimum brightness is performed; if the brightest level in the picture >220, performs a typical high brightness; if 4 < the brightest level 画面 220 in the picture, a typical low brightness is performed. In area II, the condition judged is that when the low-brightness pixel ratio is between 80% and 90%, if the brightest level in the picture is >220, the highest level in the typical high and brightness pictures is <220, and execution is performed. Typical low brightness. In the area III, the condition judged is that when the low-brightness pixel ratio is between 0% and 80%, if the darkest level in the picture is > 252, the maximum brightness is performed and the darkest level in the picture is <252, and the typical execution is performed. high brightness. In addition, the maximum brightness can be preset when the panel is shipped from the factory, and the minimum brightness can be adjusted by means of pulse width modulation (PWM) or software. Preferably, the typical high brightness is 90% of the maximum brightness, and the typical low brightness is 25% of the maximum brightness. However, in practice, typical high brightness can be tolerated at 80% to 90% of the maximum brightness, and typical low brightness can be tolerated at 20 to 30% of the maximum brightness.

值得注意的是,影像資料有可能隨時在變化,故需要在各種定義的亮度之間變化,其轉換的時間,除了最大亮度轉換至最小亮度大致需要兩倍的一轉換時間及最小亮度轉換至最大亮度大致需要兩倍的一轉換時間外,其餘各亮度之間的轉換僅需一倍的一轉換時間,該轉換時間大致上約8秒鐘。其分別為,最大亮度轉換至典型高亮度與典型低亮度大致需要一轉換時間;典型高亮度轉換至最大亮度、典型低亮度及最小亮度大致需要一轉換時間;典型低亮度轉換至最大亮度、典型高亮度及該最小亮度大致需要一轉換時間;最小亮度轉換至典型高亮度與典型低亮度大致需要一轉換時間。It is worth noting that the image data may change at any time, so it needs to change between various defined brightnesses. The conversion time, except for the maximum brightness conversion to the minimum brightness, requires approximately twice the conversion time and the minimum brightness to be converted to the maximum. The brightness requires approximately twice the conversion time, and the conversion between the remaining brightnesses requires only one conversion time, which is approximately 8 seconds. The conversion of maximum brightness to typical high brightness and typical low brightness generally requires a conversion time; typical high brightness conversion to maximum brightness, typical low brightness and minimum brightness generally requires a conversion time; typical low brightness conversion to maximum brightness, typical High brightness and the minimum brightness generally require a conversion time; a minimum brightness conversion to typical high brightness and typical low brightness generally requires a conversion time.

In this embodiment, it is a display brightness control method, which includes the following steps: in step S202, the high contrast adjustment of the image data is started; after the high contrast adjustment (comparison is higher than 10000:1) is started, then step S204 is performed. The state is detected to determine whether the state is the minimum brightness; if it is not the minimum brightness, the state is detected; otherwise, if it is the minimum brightness, the process proceeds to step S208, which determines whether the state of the minimum brightness lasts for 5 minutes, if not 5 minutes, then continue to be the minimum brightness; conversely, if the minimum brightness is continued for 5 minutes, the process proceeds to the ultra-small brightness state of step S210; then, in step S212, it is determined whether the state of the ultra-small brightness lasts for 5 minutes, if not for 5 minutes. Then, it continues to be ultra-small brightness; on the other hand, if it is ultra-small brightness for 5 minutes, it proceeds to the minimum brightness state of step S214.

If the state change is to be performed, the process proceeds to step S308 for 8 seconds or 16 seconds. After the state transitions, and after the conversion, the process returns to step S304; otherwise, the process returns to the state detection of step S304 directly; if the user initiates the setting of the brightness adjustment, the above steps are interrupted, the process proceeds to step S310, and simultaneously proceeds to step S312. , the high contrast adjustment of the image data is turned off; if the user starts the high contrast adjustment of the image data again, the process proceeds to step S302 again.
