Abstract

The present invention relates to a current-balance circuit and a backlight module having the same. The current balance circuit includes a current balance unit, a control unit, and a detection unit. The current balance unit is connected to a plurality of light units to regulate the current of the plurality of light units, independent from the effects of input voltage. The detection unit is connected to the plurality of light units and the current balance unit to detect the minimum operating voltage for the plurality of light units. The control unit, connected to the current balance unit, controls the operation of the plurality of light units.
