Abstract

A standby circuit and method for a display device is disclosed. A detector detects voltage drop of the first termination resistor of a positive path of a clock channel, and the second termination resistors of a negative path. Upon detecting the voltage drop, a switch controller disconnects the positive path or the negative path that has the detected voltage drop, thereby saving power in the standby mode of the display device.
