The invention discloses a
liquid crystal display and a terminal. The
liquid crystal display comprises a
liquid crystal display glass panel, a driving
chip, a backlight unit which is used for receiving backlight current and transmitting backlight light to the
liquid crystal display glass panel, an analog-to-
digital converter, an ambient light sensor circuit integrated on the driving
chip and a backlight
control unit, wherein, the ambient light sensor circuit is used for receiving external ambient light and outputting analog light current or analog light
voltage to the analog-to-
digital converter according to the external ambient light; the analog-to-
digital converter is used for receiving analog light current or analog light
voltage, and converting the analog light current or analog light
voltage into digital light current or digital light voltage; the backlight
control unit is used for receiving the digital light current or digital light voltage output by the analog-to-digital converter and adjusting the size of the backlight current which is output to a backlight unit according to the changing direction of the digital light current or the digital light voltage in the same direction. The embodiment of the invention can realize the change of display brightness of the
liquid crystal display along with the change of the external
light intensity.
