Abstract

Disclosed is a display device including a power supply circuit that supplies a DC voltage or a burst wave voltage to the display device as power, a microphone that senses noise of the display device, and a controller that obtains a magnitude of the noise and adjusts a slope of the burst wave voltage for the power supply circuit based on the magnitude of the noise.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A display device comprising:
a power supply circuit configured to supply a DC voltage or a burst wave voltage to the display device as power;
a microphone configured to sense noise of the display device; and
a controller configured to obtain a magnitude of the noise and adjust a slope of the burst wave voltage for the power supply circuit based on the magnitude of the noise,
wherein the controller is configured to adjust the slope of the burst wave voltage based on a rate of change of the burst wave voltage from a time when the display device switches to a standby state.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to adjust the slope of the burst wave voltage to be smaller as the obtained magnitude of the noise increases.

3. The display device of claim 2 , wherein the controller is configured to adjust the slope of the burst wave voltage to a second slope smaller than a first slope when the magnitude of the noise obtained while the burst wave voltage having the first slope is being supplied is equal to or greater than a preset reference magnitude.

4. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the power supply circuit includes a plurality of capacitors connected to at least one of a plurality of switches,
wherein the controller is configured to adjust the slope of the burst wave voltage by adjusting an equivalent capacitance of the plurality of capacitors.

5. The display device of claim 4 , wherein the controller is configured to adjust the equivalent capacitance of the capacitors to be larger as the magnitude of the noise increases.

6. The display device of claim 5 , wherein the controller is configured to adjust the equivalent capacitance of the capacitors to a second capacitance greater than a first capacitance when the magnitude of the noise obtained while the equivalent capacitance of the capacitors is the first capacitance is equal to or greater than a preset reference magnitude.

7. The display device of claim 4 , wherein the plurality of capacitors include first to fourth capacitors connected in parallel to an output terminal of the power supply circuit,
wherein the plurality of switches include a first switch connected between a first capacitor and a second capacitor, a second switch connected between a second capacitor and a third capacitor, and a third switch connected between a third capacitor and a fourth capacitor, and
wherein the controller is configured to adjust the equivalent capacitance of the plurality of capacitors by controlling the plurality of switches individually.

8. The display device of claim 7 , wherein the controller is configured to:
turn off all of the plurality of switches when the magnitude of the noise is a first magnitude;
turn on the first switch when the magnitude of the noise is a second magnitude greater than the first magnitude;
turn on the first switch and the second switch when the magnitude of the noise is a third magnitude greater than the second magnitude; and
turn on all of the plurality of switches when the magnitude of the noise is a fourth magnitude greater than the third magnitude.

9. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to adjust the slope of the burst wave voltage to a first slope when a power-off input is received, and adjust the slope of the burst wave voltage to a second slope smaller than the first slope when a predetermined reference time has elapsed from a time when the power-off input is received.

10. The display device of claim 9 , wherein the controller is configured to adjust the slope of the burst wave voltage based on a time band in which the power-off input is received.
