Abstract

A display apparatus and light source device thereof are provided. The light source device includes an optical dome having a specifically defined shape to be able to maintain an optical profile of a light source. According to the disclosure, a display apparatus includes a printed circuit board (PCB), a light emitting diode (LED) chip mounted on the PCB and configured to emit light, an optical dome formed to enclose the LED chip by being dispensed on the LED chip, and a liquid crystal panel configured to block or pass light output from the LED chip, wherein the optical dome may be formed to satisfy 1.70<r1/r0<1.83 where r0 is a straight distance for light vertically emitted from the LED chip to reach a surface of the optical dome and r1 is a straight distance for maximum output light emitted from the LED chip to reach the surface of the optical dome.
