Title:
DISPLAY DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/040090
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A plurality of sensor pixel circuits for detecting a difference between the amount of light at a backlight-on time and the amount of light at a backlight-off time are arranged on a pixel area. The backlight is turned on and off a plurality of times per one frame period, and reset of the sensor pixel circuits and read-out from the sensor pixel circuits are performed in parallel and line-sequentially each over a period of approximately one frame for each. A plurality of two types of sensor pixel circuits for separately detecting the amount of light at a backlight-on time and the amount of light at a backlight-off time may be arranged on the pixel area, and the difference between the two types of amount of light may be obtained using a difference circuit. As a result, a display device having an input function that does not depend on the optical environment is provided.
