The LED driver circuit, which may generate an LED driving voltage, may include a booster configured to generate the LED driving voltage in response to a control signal, a voltage detector configured to divide an output voltage of the booster and output a detection voltage, and a booster controller configured to generate the control signal. The booster controller may select one of a pulse-width modulation signal and a fixed logic-level signal as the control signal in response to an LED current signal and the detection voltage and output a selected signal.
