[0109] In one of the embodiments, the display device 200 includes a first power supply circuit 240 connected with the control circuit 230, the backlight assembly 220 and the display panel 210 respectively. The first power supply circuit 240 is configured to provide corresponding power supply voltages for the control circuit 230, the display panel 210 and the backlight assembly 220.

[0112] With the super multi-zone backlight technology, the number of LED lamps that need to be controlled in the backlight source is increasing, the number of zones is also increasing, and the cost of maintaining a high voltage for the power supply voltage of the LED lamp is increasing, for example, maintaining at about 12-24V, which increases the design difficulty of the LED lamp and reduces the light emitting efficiency of the LED lamp. In order to reduce the cost, it is necessary to maintain the power unchanged, and to supply power to the LED lamp by using a lower power supply voltage. However, this results in a significant increase in the total current of the system, resulting in large transmission voltage drop and transmission loss, and the risk of burning the connection line.
[0113] Therefore, some embodiments of the present application provide a display device to solve at least one of the above technical problems. The technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail below in combination with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described in detail in some embodiments. In order to facilitate explanation and description, the control circuit in the following embodiments can be any one of the system chip, the timing controller and the backlight controller mentioned in the above embodiments. It can be understood that the foregoing controllers are only examples and are not limited.
[0114] In one of the embodiments, referring to the circuit structure shown in Figure 4 The display device includes a display panel 310, and the related description of the display panel 310 can be referred to the above embodiments, which will not be described here.
[0115] In one of the embodiments, referring to the circuit structure shown in Figure 4As shown in the circuit structure, the display device comprises a backlight assembly 320 located at a side away from the display surface of the display panel 310, the backlight assembly 320 comprises at least one driving group 321 and at least one light emitting unit group 322, the driving group 321 can comprise at least one driving circuit 3210, the driving circuit 3210 is connected with the light emitting unit group 322, the light emitting unit groups 322 connected by different driving circuits 3210 are different, and the driving circuit 3210 is configured to output a driving signal. The related descriptions of the backlight assembly 320, the driving group 321, the driving circuit 3210 and the light emitting unit group 322 can refer to the above-mentioned embodiments, and will not be repeated here.
[0116] In one of the embodiments, referring to Figure 4 As shown in the circuit structure, the display device comprises a control circuit 330 and a first power supply circuit 340, the control circuit 330 is connected with the light emitting unit group 322 and the first power supply circuit 340 respectively, and the control circuit 330 can control the first power supply circuit 340 to adjust the first power supply voltage output based on the power supply feedback information of the light emitting unit group 322. The related description of the first power supply circuit 340 can refer to the above-mentioned embodiments, and will not be repeated here.
[0117] In one of the embodiments, referring to Figure 4 As shown in the circuit structure, the display device comprises a proportion converter 350 connected with the first power supply circuit 340 and the light emitting unit group 322 respectively, and configured to perform preset proportion conversion on the first power supply voltage to obtain a target second power supply voltage. The light emitting unit group 322 is configured to emit light based on the second power supply voltage and the driving signal, and output power supply feedback information.
[0118] The proportion converter 350 can convert the first power supply voltage according to the preset conversion proportion, so that the second power supply voltage output changes accordingly, thereby achieving the effect of controlling the power supply voltage of the LED lamp.
[0119] For example, the control circuit 330 can generate a voltage control signal by detecting the power supply feedback information of each LED lamp in the light emitting unit group 322, the power supply feedback information comprises voltage and current information, etc., the voltage control signal is used to control the first power supply circuit 340 to adjust the size of the first power supply voltage output, and the proportion converter 350 converts the first power supply voltage according to the preset voltage conversion proportion, and the second power supply voltage output changes accordingly.
[0120] For example, the voltage conversion proportion of the proportion converter 350 is 1:4, when the first power supply voltage is 24V, the second power supply voltage output by the proportion converter 350 is 6V, at this time, the control circuit controls the first power supply circuit to adjust the first power supply voltage to 25V, and the second power supply voltage can be adjusted to 25 / 4=6.25V.
[0121] In related technologies, if the input voltage of the LED lamp is maintained at 6V and the output power is maintained at 120W, the total current of the first power supply circuit 340 needs to be maintained at 20A. However, through this embodiment, while maintaining the input voltage of the LED lamp at 6V and the output power at 120W, the first power supply circuit 340 can output a supply voltage of 24V-25V, reducing the current of the first power supply circuit to 5A. Then, the 24V-25V is converted to 6V-6.25V by a proportional converter to power the LED lamp, achieving a closed-loop system effect. This reduces the current of the first power supply circuit 340, reduces transmission loss, avoids the risk of wire burnout, and maintains the LED lamp at a lower input voltage, reducing costs while improving efficiency. Furthermore, the driving circuit corresponding to the LED lamp can use semiconductor technology with lower withstand voltage, significantly reducing the design cost of the driving circuit.
[0122] In the above technical solution, the display device includes a first power supply circuit 340, a display panel 310, a backlight assembly 320, a proportional converter 350, and a control circuit 330. The control circuit 330, based on power supply feedback information from the light-emitting unit group 322, controls the first power supply circuit 340 to adjust the output first power supply voltage. This ensures that the first power supply voltage, after being converted by the proportional converter 350 according to a preset ratio, obtains a target second power supply voltage to supply power to the light-emitting unit group 322, allowing the entire backlight LED to operate under a reasonable input voltage. On one hand, the two-stage conversion between the output of the first power supply circuit 340 and the proportional converter 350 increases the power supply voltage, reduces the current, decreases transmission loss, and reduces the impedance requirements of the connection lines. On the other hand, because the LED voltage is controlled to a relatively low level, costs are reduced and efficiency is improved. Furthermore, when the LED voltage is controlled to a relatively low level, the corresponding driving circuit can use a semiconductor process with lower voltage withstand capability, significantly reducing the design cost of the driving circuit.
[0123] In one embodiment, reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 The circuit structure shown has at least one proportional converter 350. Figure 7 Taking two as examples, Figure 6 (Taking one as an example); the proportional converter 350 is connected to the power supply terminal (VP terminal in the figure) of the driving circuit 3210 of at least one driving group 321 (taking the proportional converter 350 being connected to one driving group 321 as an example), and is connected to the power supply terminal of the light-emitting unit group 322 corresponding to the connected driving group 321. Each proportional converter 350 obtains a second power supply voltage after a preset ratio conversion of the received first power supply voltage, so as to supply power to the driving circuit 3210 and the light-emitting unit group 322 respectively; when the light-emitting unit group 322 receives the second power supply voltage and the driving signal, it outputs a light source.
[0124] In the technical solution, each proportional converter 350 is connected to the power supply end of the driving circuit 3210 of the at least one driving group 321 and the power supply end of the light emitting unit group 322 corresponding to the connected driving group 321, so that each proportional converter 350 can preset proportional conversion on the received first power supply voltage to obtain a second power supply voltage, and supply power to the connected driving circuit 3210 and the light emitting component, so that the driving circuit 3210 drives the light emitting unit group 322 to provide a light source, and reduces the maintenance cost of the backlight component 320 and the design cost of the driving circuit 3210.
[0125] In one of the embodiments, the control circuit 330 is further configured to control the driving circuit 3210 to obtain the power supply state of the light emitting unit group 322 and receive power supply feedback information fed back by the driving circuit 3210 and representing the power supply state.
[0126] For example, the control circuit 330 can control the driving circuit 3210 to sample the voltage and current information of each LED lamp in the light emitting unit group 322 to obtain the power supply state, and generate a voltage control signal based on the power supply feedback information fed back by the driving circuit 3210.
[0127] For example, the driving circuit 3210 in the driving group 321 is configured with a data input end (DIN in the figure) and a data output end (DOUT in the figure) according to the circuit structure shown in Figure 5 , Figure 6 The data input end is configured to receive backlight driving data, and the data output end is configured to output power supply feedback information. The driving group 321 can transmit the power supply feedback information through the transmission wire between the data output end and the control circuit 330, without affecting the process of transmitting driving data from the control circuit 330 to the driving group 321.
[0128] For example, the plurality of driving circuits 3210 can also transmit the power supply feedback information to the control circuit 330 in the reverse direction of the driving data transmission path.
[0129] For example, a voltage / current sensor, an analog-to-digital conversion unit, a metering chip, etc. can be arranged inside the driving group 321 to detect the power supply state of the light emitting component and output corresponding power supply feedback information to the control circuit 330.
[0130] In the technical solution, the control circuit 330 can control the driving group 3210 to sample and obtain the power supply state of the light emitting unit group 322, receive power supply feedback information fed back by the driving circuit 3210 and representing the power supply state, and output a voltage adjustment control signal to the first power supply circuit based on the power supply feedback information, so as to adjust the value of the first power supply voltage output by the first power supply circuit, thereby realizing voltage control of the first power supply circuit 340.

[0133] In one of the embodiments, referring to the circuit structure shown in Figure 7 The proportional converter 350 and the driving circuit 3210 connected therewith form an integrated circuit (A1 in the figure), which is configured with a voltage input port (VIN in the figure), a voltage output port (VOUT in the figure), a driving input port (DIN in the figure) and a driving output port (DOUT in the figure); the voltage input port is connected with the first power supply circuit 340 and the proportional converter 350 respectively, the voltage output port is connected with the proportional converter 350 and the light emitting unit group 332 respectively, the driving input port receives the backlight driving data and is connected with the driving circuit 3310, and the driving output port is connected with the light emitting unit group 332.
[0134] The proportional converter 350 receives the first power supply voltage through the voltage input port and outputs the second power supply voltage to the connected light emitting unit group 322 through the voltage output port; the driving circuit 3210 receives the second power supply voltage through the proportional converter 350, receives the backlight driving data through the driving input port, and under the condition of receiving the second power supply voltage and the backlight driving data, provides the driving signal to the connected light emitting unit group 322 through the driving output port, the driving signal being determined based on the backlight driving data.
[0135] In which, the integrated circuit receives the first power supply voltage through the voltage input port for the proportional converter 350 to convert and supply power to the driving circuit 3210, outputs the second power supply voltage to the light emitting unit group 322 through the voltage output port, receives the backlight driving data through the driving input port and transmits to the driving circuit 3210, so that the driving circuit 3210 provides the driving signal under the action of the second power supply voltage and outputs to the light emitting unit group 322 through the driving output port.
[0136] Exemplarily, the number of the driving circuits 3210 connected with the proportional converter 350 is multiple, the multiple driving circuits 3210 are cascaded, the first driving circuit 3210 receives the backlight driving data through the driving input port, the backlight driving data includes at least one driving data segment, so that the multiple driving circuits 3210 in the driving group 321 respectively receive one driving data segment and drive the light emitting components in the connected light emitting unit group 322 to emit light. The driving data segment can include PWM duty cycle data, backlight current amplitude, etc. used for driving the light emitting components to emit light. After the driving circuit 3210 receives the driving data segment, the driving circuit 3210 can output a PWM control signal according to the duty cycle data and the backlight current amplitude to control the light emitting state of the connected light emitting components.
[0137] Exemplarily, the number of the driving circuits 3210 connected with the proportional converter 350 is multiple, the multiple driving circuits 3210 are connected in parallel, and the multiple driving circuits 3210 connected in parallel respectively receive the backlight driving data through the driving input port and drive the light emitting components connected thereto to emit light. The backlight driving data can include PWM duty cycle data, backlight current amplitude, etc. used for driving the light emitting components to emit light. After the driving circuit 3210 receives the backlight driving data, the driving circuit 3210 can output a PWM control signal according to the duty cycle data and the backlight current amplitude to control the light emitting state of the connected light emitting components.
[0138] In the above technical solution, the proportional converter 350 and the driving circuit 3210 form an integrated circuit, the integrated circuit has the proportional conversion function and the driving function, can provide the driving signal to the light emitting unit group 322 based on the received first power supply voltage and the backlight driving data, so that the backlight component 320 provides the light source, on the basis of reducing the maintenance cost of the power supply voltage of the backlight component 320 and the design cost of the driving circuit 3210, the integrated degree of the circuit can also be improved, the complexity of the system can be effectively reduced, the overall occupied area of the circuit can be reduced, and the volume can be reduced. It can also reduce the transmission loss between the proportional converter 350 and the driving circuit 3210.
[0139] In one of the embodiments, referring to the circuit structure shown in Figure 8 The proportional converter 350 is also connected with the data end of at least one driving circuit 3210 of at least one driving group 321 to transmit the received backlight driving data to each driving circuit 3210 of the driving group 321. In the case that the driving circuit 3210 receives the second power supply voltage and the backlight driving data, the driving circuit 3210 provides a driving signal to the connected light emitting unit group 322, and the driving signal is determined based on the backlight driving data.
[0140] The proportional converter 350 can be connected with the control circuit to receive the backlight driving data output by the control circuit. The proportional converter 350 can transmit the backlight driving data and the second power supply voltage to each driving circuit 3210 of the driving group 321 respectively, so that the driving circuit 3210 provides a driving signal to the connected light emitting unit group 322 based on the backlight driving data under the action of the second power supply voltage.
[0141] Each driving circuit 3210 can receive the backlight driving data through the proportional converter 350. Compared with the case that each driving circuit 3210 receives the backlight driving data through the control circuit, the transmission wiring of the backlight driving data can be shortened. When the proportional converter 350 is connected with multiple driving groups 321, the proportional converter 350 can also replace part of the data distribution function of the control circuit, reduce the distribution function of the control circuit, and reduce the data distribution cost of the control circuit.
[0142] In the above technical solution, the proportional converter 350 not only has a proportional conversion function, but also has a data transmission function. The proportional converter 350 can transmit the converted second power supply voltage and the received backlight driving data to each driving circuit 3210 of the connected driving group 321. Each driving circuit 3210 provides a driving signal to the connected light emitting unit group 322 based on the received backlight driving data under the action of the second power supply voltage, and drives the light emitting unit group 322 to output a light source. On the basis of reducing the maintenance cost of the backlight assembly 320 power supply voltage and the design cost of the driving circuit 3210, the transmission wiring of the backlight driving data can be shortened, and the data distribution cost of the control circuit can be reduced.
[0143] In one embodiment, the proportional converter 350 is further configured to, in the case that the backlight driving data carries a standby instruction, stop outputting the second power supply voltage.
[0144] It can be understood that, in the case that the backlight driving data does not carry a standby instruction, the proportional converter 350 can normally output the second power supply voltage; in the case that the backlight driving data carries a standby instruction, the proportional converter 350 can stop outputting the second power supply voltage based on the standby instruction. Thus, the output state of the proportional converter 350 can be flexibly controlled based on the standby instruction. At the same time, the standby instruction is carried in the backlight driving data, without the need to increase the controlled port of the proportional converter 350 or the control channel, which is conducive to simplifying the circuit and reducing the cost.
[0145] For example, the standby instruction can be a high-level or low-level control signal carried in the backlight driving data. When the proportional converter 350 detects the foregoing control signal, it stops outputting the second power supply voltage, and the control logic is simple.
[0146] In the technical solution, the standby instruction is carried by the backlight driving data, so that the output state of the proportional converter 350 can be controlled, the controllability of the proportional converter 350 is improved, the display device can flexibly adjust the power supply state as needed, the standby state can be switched in time, and the power consumption is reduced.

The driving circuit 3210 receives the second power supply voltage and the backlight driving data through the proportional converter 350, and provides the driving signal to the connected light emitting unit group 322 through the driving output port when the second power supply voltage and the backlight driving data are received.

[0179] In one of the embodiments, each lamp plate 40 is provided with a proportional converter 350 and a driving group 321, the driving group 321 comprises a plurality of driving circuits 3210 arranged in an array, and the light emitting unit group 322 comprises a plurality of light emitting components arranged in an array; wherein the proportional converter 350, the driving group 321 and the light emitting unit group 322 are arranged on the same side of the lamp plate 40 and located in the area close to the first power supply circuit and the control circuit of the lamp plate 40.
[0180] The area close to the first power supply circuit and the control circuit of the lamp plate 40 can be understood as the edge area of the lamp plate 40, and the proportional converter 350 is arranged in the edge area of the lamp plate 40.
[0181] In the technical solution, on one hand, the proportional converter 350 is arranged on the lamp plate 40, and the second power supply voltage can be provided to the light emitting component, the driving circuit 3210, etc. by using the wiring on the lamp plate 40, so as to reduce the line impedance, improve the power supply efficiency, reduce the number of connection lines, and simplify the assembly of the display device; on the other hand, the proportional converter 350 is arranged at the edge region of the lamp plate 40, which is beneficial to shorten the wiring between the proportional converter 350 and the control circuit and the first power supply circuit, and reduce the cost.
[0182] In one of the embodiments, referring to the circuit structure shown in Figure 12 each lamp plate 40 is provided with a plurality of proportional converters 350 and a plurality of driving groups 321, the driving group 321 includes a plurality of driving circuits 3210 arranged in an array, and the light emitting unit group 322 includes a plurality of light emitting components arranged in an array; wherein the proportional converter 350, the driving group 321 and the light emitting unit group 322 are arranged on the same side of the lamp plate 40, and the plurality of proportional converters 350 are distributedly arranged, and the light emitting unit group 322 and the driving group 321 connected to the same proportional converter 350 are arranged close to each other.
[0183] The plurality of proportional converters 350 are distributed in different regions of the same lamp plate 40, and the arrayed driving circuit 3210 and the light emitting component connected to the proportional converter 350 can be arranged in each region, so that the proportional converter 350 in each region and the light emitting unit group 322 and the driving group 321 connected thereto are arranged close to each other, and the proportional converter 350 in each region only needs to provide the second power supply voltage to the driving circuit 3210 and the light emitting component in the region, which is beneficial to use a smaller size proportional converter 350 to reduce the cost, and on the other hand, the connection wiring between the proportional converter 350 and the driving circuit 3210 and the light emitting component can be shortened, which is beneficial to the wiring layout, reduces the size of the overall device, improves the flexibility of the circuit layout, and is beneficial to the heat dissipation of the lamp plate 40.
[0184] Exemplarily, the lamp plate 40 can be divided into a plurality of regions with the same size, and the plurality of proportional converters 350 can be distributed at the same position in the plurality of different regions, so that the plurality of proportional converters 350 on the plurality of lamp plates 40 can be arranged in an array, so that the overall wiring is more regular, which is beneficial to the wiring design.
[0185] In the technical solution, the plurality of proportional converters 350 are distributed in a plurality of regions on the same lamp panel 40, and the proportional converter 350 in each region can be arranged close to the corresponding connected light emitting unit group 322 and driving group 321. The proportional converter 350 in each region only needs to provide the second power supply voltage to the driving circuit 3210 and the light emitting assembly in the region. On the one hand, a smaller specification proportional converter 350 can be used to reduce costs. On the other hand, the connection wires between the proportional converter 350 and the driving circuit 3210 and the light emitting assembly can be shortened, which is beneficial to the layout of the wires and reduces the size of the overall device and improves the flexibility of the circuit layout. At the same time, it is also beneficial to heat dissipation of the lamp panel 40.
[0186] In one of the embodiments, the lamp panel 40 has a first side and a second side opposite to each other. The light emitting unit group 322 and the driving group 321 are located on the first side, and the proportional converter 350 is located on the second side. The first side can be understood as the front side of the lamp panel 40, and the second side can be understood as the back side of the lamp panel 40.
[0187] In the technical solution, the proportional converter 350, the light emitting unit group 322, and the driving group 321 are arranged on different sides of the lamp panel 40. This can shorten the wires and simplify the wiring, reduce the area occupied by the proportional converter 350 on the front side of the lamp panel 40, and make the selection of the proportional converter 350 more flexible. Either a larger proportional converter 350 or a smaller proportional converter 350, such as a chip-type proportional converter 350, can be selected.
[0188] In one of the embodiments, referring to the circuit structure shown in Figure 13 The display device further includes a second power supply circuit 360.
[0189] The second power supply circuit 360 is configured to provide a third power supply voltage. The proportional converter 350 is further configured to convert the received first power supply voltage into the second power supply voltage under the action of the third power supply voltage.
[0190] In the technical solution, the second power supply circuit 360 is provided. When the second power supply circuit 360 provides the third power supply voltage, the proportional converter 350 is prompted to perform a preset proportional conversion to convert the received first power supply voltage into the second power supply voltage. It can be understood that when the second power supply circuit 360 provides the third power supply voltage, the proportional converter 350 is in a working state. When the second power supply circuit 360 stops providing the third power supply voltage, the proportional converter 350 is in a non-working state. Exemplarily, the second power supply circuit 360 can be a system power supply circuit of the display device. When the system power supply circuit stops providing the third power supply voltage, the display device is in a standby state, and the entire device is in a low-power consumption state and does not consume power.
[0191] It can be understood that in other embodiments, when the first power supply circuit stops providing the first power supply voltage, the proportional converter 350 can be caused to stop working, thereby switching all power consumption. Exemplarily, the second power supply circuit 360 can be a system power supply circuit configured to supply power to the first power supply circuit 340, the display panel 310, the control circuit 330, etc.
[0192] In one of the embodiments, the proportional converter 350 includes at least one of an open-loop charge pump, an isolated resonant converter.
[0193] In the case where the proportional converter 350 adopts the open-loop charge pump form, the topological efficiency can be as high as more than 98%. Exemplarily, the open-loop charge pump form can be a fully integrated switched capacitor DC / DC converter, which uses the charging and discharging of a capacitor to achieve voltage conversion, with a maximum efficiency of 98%, and a very small volume, suitable for being distributed on the lamp panel 40, for example, the LTC7825 model, supporting 243V / 12A.
[0194] In the case where the proportional converter 350 can adopt an isolated resonant converter, it can be designed to work at a fixed frequency, and by setting a suitable switching frequency, the converter can be operated at the optimal operating state, greatly improving the conversion efficiency. For example, an LLC resonant converter is adopted, which has relatively high conversion efficiency because it can achieve soft switching. The LLC resonant converter can obtain a good operating state at the resonant point, at which the conversion efficiency is relatively high, and has a good load regulation rate, so the switching frequency of the LLC resonant converter can be fixed at the resonant frequency point, and the voltage conversion can be performed according to the turns ratio of the transformer, thereby obtaining a relatively high conversion efficiency and a fixed proportional conversion of voltage.
[0195] In the above technical solution, the proportional converter 350 includes at least one of an open-loop charge pump and an isolated resonant converter, which can effectively improve the efficiency of voltage conversion, thereby improving the overall backlight efficiency of the backlight assembly 320.

[0199] In one of the embodiments, referring to Figure 14 As shown in the circuit structure, the display device comprises a display panel 410, and the related description of the display panel 410 can refer to the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be repeated here.
[0200] In one of the embodiments, referring to Figure 14 As shown in the circuit structure, the display device comprises a backlight assembly 420 located at a side away from the display side of the display panel 410.
[0201] In one of the embodiments, referring to Figure 14 As shown in the circuit structure, the backlight assembly 420 comprises at least one driving integrated circuit 421 and at least one light emitting unit group 422, the driving integrated circuit 421 is connected with the first power supply circuit 440 and the light emitting unit group 422 respectively, and is configured to perform preset proportional conversion on the first power supply voltage to obtain a second power supply voltage; and is further configured to output a driving signal to the connected light emitting unit group 422; wherein the light emitting unit group 422 outputs light source and power supply feedback information under the condition of receiving the second power supply voltage and the driving signal. The driving integrated circuit 421 is further configured to adjust the preset proportion based on the power supply feedback information of the light emitting unit group 422 to adjust the output second power supply voltage.
[0202] The driving signal can be determined based on the received backlight driving data, and in one of the embodiments, referring to Figure 14 As shown in the circuit structure, the display device comprises a control circuit 430 configured to output backlight driving data to the driving integrated circuit 421.
[0203] The driving integrated circuit 421 can be understood as comprising the control circuit, the proportional converter and the driving group in any of the above-mentioned embodiments, and the functional devices of the control circuit related to the first power supply circuit control, the proportional converter and the driving group are integrated together to obtain the same functions as the control circuit, the proportional converter and the driving group, which can effectively reduce the complexity of the system, further simplify the circuit and reduce the occupied area; and the driving integrated circuit 421 can adjust the preset proportional conversion based on the power supply feedback information of the light emitting unit group 422, and through closed-loop control, the second power supply voltage is fine-tuned, the power supply efficiency is further improved, the system architecture is simplified, and the power supply feedback information of the backlight assembly 420 does not need to be fed back as a whole; at the same time, since the number of energy supply channels of the output of the proportional converter is reduced, the demand is reduced, so the volume can be further reduced, which creates conditions for the fusion of the driving circuit of the driving group 421, and is more suitable for ultra-high partition application scenarios.
[0204] In the technical solution, the display device comprises the first power supply circuit 440, the display panel 410, and the backlight assembly 420.

The driving integrated circuit 421 also has a proportional conversion function and an adjustment function of a preset proportion. The driving integrated circuit 421 can improve the integrated degree, increase the power supply voltage, reduce the current, and reduce the transmission loss. The driving integrated circuit 421 also reduces the demand for the impedance of the connecting line. The driving integrated circuit 421 can adjust the preset proportion based on the power supply feedback information of the light emitting unit group 422 to adjust the second power supply voltage. The control of the power supply can be upgraded to closed-loop control. The driving integrated circuit can be finely controlled to perform the preset proportion conversion, further improve the power supply efficiency, simplify the system architecture, and does not need to feed back the power supply feedback information of the backlight assembly as a whole. On the other hand, the voltage of the LED lamp is controlled to a relatively low level, which reduces the cost and improves the efficiency. When the voltage of the LED lamp is controlled to a relatively low level, the driving circuit corresponding to the LED lamp can use a semiconductor process with a relatively low withstand voltage, which greatly reduces the design cost of the driving circuit.
[0205] Based on the same technical concept, the embodiment of the present application also provides a driving integrated chip for solving the above-mentioned at least one technical problem. The technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail below in combination with specific embodiments.

On the other hand, the voltage of the LED lamp is controlled to a relatively low level, which reduces the cost and improves the efficiency. When the voltage of the LED lamp is controlled to a relatively low level, the driving circuit 520 corresponding to the LED lamp can use a semiconductor process with lower voltage resistance, which greatly reduces the design cost of the driving circuit 520.
