    Abstract: A signal transmitter apparatus generates three phase-shifted signals by shifting three transmission signals by predetermined phase shift amounts so that the phase shift amounts of the transmission signals are different from each other by 120 degrees. The signal transmitter apparatus generates three combined transmission signals and outputs the three combined transmission signals to the three transmission conductors, respectively, by combining each of pairs of the phase-shifted signals such that an inverted signal of a first phase-shifted signal is combined with a second phase-shifted signal, when each of the pairs of the phase-shifted signals includes the first and second phase-shifted signals among the three phase-shifted signals and phase shift amounts of the first and second phase-shifted signals are different from each other by 120 degrees.

  • Publication number: 20090140953
    Abstract: The present invention sufficiently reduces unwanted radiation in a plasma display panel (PDP) display device. The display device includes a PDP having a pair of electrodes, a first, a second, and a third conductive member, and a pair of driving circuits used to apply a voltage to their respective electrodes. Each conductive member has substantially the same width and height as the PDP, and the first, second, third conductive members are disposed on the rear surface of the PDP, in this order on the rear side of the PDP. The PDP and the conductive members are connected electrically to one another in the end portions of these elements, either directly or via the driving circuits, so that the direction of the current flowing in the PDP during driving and discharge coincides with the direction of the current flowing in the third conductive member, and is opposite from the direction of the current flowing in the first conductive member and the second conductive member.
