Abstract

A display device has a &ggr; correction circuit based on line graph approximation. A memory stores &ggr; characteristic data of the display device. The &ggr; characteristic value, white level value, contrast value and black level value are input for adjusting the luminance characteristics of input video signals. A &ggr; conversion section sets a slope and intercept of the &ggr; correction so that the input video signal data can be converted to ideal output luminance value of the display.
