  • Patent number: 8816954
    Abstract: In a display apparatus according to one or more embodiments, a boosting circuit boosts an input voltage to a backlight driving voltage, and a backlight unit receives the backlight driving voltage to generate light. A backlight driving circuit controls the boosting circuit in response to a dimming signal and compensates a plurality of feedback voltages from the backlight unit to output a panel driving voltage. A panel driving circuit receives the panel driving voltage from the backlight driving circuit to output a data voltage corresponding to an image signal and receives a gate driving voltage to generate a gate voltage. A display panel displays an image in response to the gate voltage and the data voltage. Accordingly, a number of the boosting circuits for the display apparatus may decrease, thereby reducing a manufacturing cost of the display apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20140185318
    Abstract: A backlight assembly includes a light guide member extending in a direction and having a light incident surface and a light exiting surface. A light source faces the light guide member and supplies light to the light guide member through the light incident surface. A reflecting member reflects light exiting from the light exiting surface of the light guide member. The reflecting member includes a groove receiving the light guide member. A first reflecting portion is disposed under the light guide member and reflects light refracted by the light guide member in an upward direction. A second reflecting portion is disposed on the light guide member and reflects light refracted by the light guide member in a downward direction.

  • Patent number: 8732842
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus which permits intuitive management of a variety of digital contents stored in a mobile device. In a method for managing the contents, the mobile device determines a type of the content when a play of the content is ended. If the content is digital rights management (DRM) content, the mobile device checks a license count for authorized access to the DRM content and then determines whether or the license has expired or will expire shortly. If the license has expired, the mobile device removes the license-expired DRM content, or alternatively transfers the license-expired DRM content to a specified folder.
