Patent number: 9552779Abstract: An electronic apparatus and a display backlight control method are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a display, a processing unit, a read-only memory and a backlight controller. The read-only memory stores a basic input output system (BIOS) and a setting table. The setting table includes a plurality of backlight setting values corresponding to each of the displays. When the processing unit executes the BIOS, the processing unit identifies an identifier corresponding to the display connected to the electronic apparatus, so as to obtain the backlight setting values corresponding to the display according to the identifier and the setting table. Then the processing unit provides the backlight setting values to the backlight controller, and the backlight controller controls the backlight power of the display according to the backlight setting values.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2015Date of Patent: January 24, 2017Assignee: Wistron CorporationInventors: Chung-Cheng Yu, Chung-Min Wang, Shang-Yuan Huang, Cheng-Yu Hung, Chien-Chih Cho

Publication number: 20110109830Abstract: A back cover module and assembling method thereof, a backlight module and assembling method thereof, and a flat panel display device and assembling method thereof are disclosed. The flat panel display device includes the backlight module and a display panel disposed on the backlight module. The backlight module includes the back cover module, a reflector disposed on an inner surface of a back cover body of the back cover module, and a light source module disposed on the reflector. The back cover module includes the back cover body, a first U-shaped plastic frame, and a second U-shaped plastic frame. The first and second U-shaped plastic frames are fixed at four corners of the back cover body. By the present invention, a size of the back cover body can be reduced so as to achieve objectives of decreasing cost and weight of the flat panel display device.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2010Publication date: May 12, 2011Applicant: AU Optronics Corp.Inventors: Chung-min Wang, Wei-chen Yu
