Abstract:
A light emitting diode (LED) backlight system and a driving apparatus and a driving method thereof are provided. The driving apparatus is suitable for an LED backlight system with N LED strings, where N is a positive integer greater than 1, and which includes an LED driver and a switching unit. The LED driver is configured to receive a dimming signal and time-divisionally generate N control signals in response to a counting clock and an enabling time and a period time both related to the dimming signal. The switching unit is coupled to the LED driver and the N LED strings, and is configured to respectively control an on-off time ratio of a current flowing through each of the LED strings in response to the N control signals.
