  • Patent number: 8319705
    Abstract: The plasma display device has a display panel having first and second display electrodes and address electrodes, an electrode drive circuit, and a drive control circuit for controlling the electrode drive circuit. The drive control circuit performs a reset drive control, address drive control and sustain drive control in each subfield. The drive control circuit performs an all cell reset drive control which resets all cells in a first subfield out of the plurality of subfields, and an ON cell reset drive control which resets ON cells in a second subfield. At a first temperature T1, an ultimate potential of an slope pulse of the first display electrode is controlled to be a first potential in the ON cell reset drive control, and at a second temperature T2>T1, the ultimate potential is controlled to be a second potential higher than the first potential.

  • Patent number: 8207912
    Abstract: Sustain pulses are alternately applied to a pair of display electrodes of discharge cells provided in a plasma display panel (PDP) to generate a sustain discharge to display an image on the PDP. The sustain pulses include two-crests discharge voltage waveforms having a first maximum and second maximum values, in which discharges are generated twice in a half cycle. After applying a sustain pulse having a one-crest discharge voltage waveform to a pair of display electrodes, a predetermined number of sustain pulses of two-crests discharge voltage waveforms are consecutively applied. A time, from applying a second sustain pulse of a two-crests discharge voltage waveform to clamping a voltage of the second sustain pulse to the second maximum value, is made longer than a time, from applying a first sustain pulse of a two-crests discharge voltage waveform to clamping a voltage of the first sustain pulse to the second maximum value.

  • Publication number: 20090225007
    Abstract: A driving method of a PDP which discharges between respective adjacent display electrodes, wherein wasteful light emission caused by inefficiency of reset operation is reduced. The driving method being provided with a lattice shaped rib and an interlace driving method. By driving waveforms to respective display electrodes, the reset operation is performed to only one of odd-numbered and even-numbered display lines according to interlace driving of adjacent even-numbered and odd-numbered display lines. A pair of display electrodes of the other of the even-numbered and odd-numbered display lines being a non-objective of the reset operation, potential difference thereof is set to be 0 or smaller than a discharge starting voltage. In an odd-numbered field, the even-numbered display line is reset, and in an even-numbered field, the odd-numbered display line is reset.

  • Publication number: 20090201276
    Abstract: At an on-cell reset, a positive ramp wave of an ultimate voltage, which is larger than a maximum voltage of a sustain pulse, and smaller than an ultimate voltage of a positive ramp wave applied to a Y electrode at an all-cell reset, is applied to the Y electrode to make a weak discharge occur at a cell where it is non-lighting at a previous sub-field and a wall charge thereof is decreased due to an influence from an adjacent cell, thereby, it makes it possible to return a wall charge state to a normal state, to be capable of lighting a cell to be lighted securely based on a display data.
