    Abstract: A backlight driver chip for an electronic device includes an input that receives data corresponding to a brightness of a backlight device. The backlight driver chip also includes correction circuitry that determines an amplitude correction factor based at least in part on the data and the brightness of the backlight device. The correction circuitry also determines a corrected brightness based at least in part on the amplitude correction factor. The backlight driver chip further includes an output that provides a current signal that drives the backlight device, wherein the current signal is based at least in part on the corrected brightness.
