Abstract: A device and method of adjusting tones of a display apparatus are disclosed. The method can be applied to various display apparatuses to prevent quantization noises. For this, the method includes the steps of: sampling tone values according to voltage levels of received image signals; generating a tone adjustment curve using the sampled tone values; and adjusting tones of outputted images based on the tone adjustment curve.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for compensating images in a display device is disclosed. Distortion ratios of image blocks are calculated based on a gray value difference between each of a plurality of pairs of pixels in the image blocks that face each other at a boundary between the image blocks. Compensation parameters are set based on the calculated block distortion ratios. Distortion compensation values of the image blocks are calculated based on the gray value difference and the set compensation parameters. The image blocks are then compensated according to the calculated distortion compensation values.
