Abstract: A backlight control device for controlling a driving current of an LED is disclosed. By controlling current outputs from current sources of a plurality of current output units, a display will be able to generate desirable backlight. Then by adjusting currents output by the plurality of current output units, brightness of a plurality of pixels can be dynamically adjusted. The brightness of pixels with higher gray levels can be increased while the brightness of pixels with lower gray levels can be decreased, thereby improving the contrast of image and saving power consumption.

Abstract: An exemplary capacitive touch detection system includes a capacitive touch panel and a detection control circuit. The capacitive touch panel includes a plurality of input terminals and output terminals. The detection control circuit includes a scanning signal transmitting module electrically coupled to the input terminals and a detection signal receiving and waveform shaping module including a receiver and an impedance-matching network. The detection signal receiving and waveform shaping module is electrically coupled to the output terminals for receiving and processing a plurality of detection signals outputted from the respective output terminals and thereby producing a plurality of processed detection signals. The receiver is used for receiving the detection signals.

Abstract: A touch panel includes a sensing region, a storage unit, a precision rectifier circuit and a comparing circuit. There exists an equivalent capacitance at a predetermined location in the sensing region. At the predetermined location, the sensing region can provide a first signal before a touch action occurs and a second signal after the touch action occurs. The precision rectifier circuit can control the signal transmission path between the predetermined location and the storage unit. After being charged by the first and second signals, the storage unit can respectively provide corresponding third and fourth signals. The comparing circuit can thus determine whether the touch action occurs at the predetermined location according to the third and fourth signals.

Abstract: A backlight module includes a plurality of light sources, a photo-sensor, and a control circuit. Each light source of the plurality of light sources can operate independently. The photo-sensor detects the luminance of the plurality of light sources to generate a luminance signal. The control circuit drives the plurality of light sources according to the luminance signal. When the backlight module is used in a scanning backlight LCD, the control circuit turns off parts of the plurality of light sources according to a display signal. When all of the plurality of light sources is turned on, the control circuit obtains the luminance signal so as to adjust the luminance of the backlight module according to the luminance signal.
