Abstract: There is provided an image display device in which a display panel is driven based a plurality of sub-frame image data produced from a frame image data representing an image of one screen to display the image, the image display device includes: a dividing unit to divide the frame image data into a plurality of sub-frame image data; and a panel drive controlling unit to make each pixel data of one sub-frame image data correspond to each pixel of the display panel by one-to-one and to drive each pixel of the display panel, and to distribute each pixel data of other sub-frame image data to a plurality of pixels of the display panel that are adjacent in the display panel in a predetermined ratio and to drive each pixel of the display panel.

Abstract: A plasma display panel with quick firing nature and high speed scanning having a plurality of display cells defined by parallel cathode electrodes and parallel anode electrodes perpendicular to said cathode electrodes. The cells along a cathode electrode discharge simultaneously either strongly or weakly according to the currents in the anode electrodes, and said current in the anode electrodes is switched according to the picture pattern to be displayed. A strongly discharged cell provides a bright large discharge which is visible through a cathode electrode, and a weakly discharged cell provides a dark small discharge which is blinded by a cathode electrode itself and is invisible, but merely functions as a seed cell for firing adjacent cells. As all the cells function both as display cells and seed cells, quick firing of cells or high speed scanning of light spots along the anode electrodes is accomplished although no specific seed electrode for mere seed discharge is provided.
