Patent number: 6765561Abstract: A flat panel having at least one non-conductive substrate having a first conductor array on the surface thereof and a dielectric layer on said first conductor array having an exposed flat surface. A first predetermined pattern of vias external through the dielectric layer to pads on each conductor in the array. A second predetermined pattern of vias extend through the dielectric layer to further conductive pads, and an input and through-feed second conductor array is on the substrate with the dielectric layer covering the second predetermined pattern. A conductor material, preferably a gold frit, is in contact with the conductor at the bottom of each via, respectively, and partially filling same to a predetermined level below said exposed flat surface.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 1999Date of Patent: July 20, 2004Inventor: Ray A.

Patent number: 6222511Abstract: A drive system is shown for AC plasma (ACP) gas discharge flat bistable matrix panels on which real-time video and computer graphics, both with pixel by pixel gray scale are displayed. The drive scheme increases scan speed, reduces complexity, and minimizes the circuitry required to operate the video and computer graphics on the ACP display by a unique application of standard high density memory IC architecture and panel drive waveform technique applying all of the drive voltages to the ACP panel from the row (Y) axis and only selective cancellation voltage from the column (x) axis.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 1998Date of Patent: April 24, 2001Assignee: Photonics Systems, Inc.Inventors: Ray A.

Patent number: 6184849Abstract: An AC color plasma display system comprises an AC plasma display panel having transversely oriented first and second insulated electrode arrays defining a matrix of display pixels. Linear ribs are in substantially parallel alignment with one of the linear electrode arrays to form gas channels, respectively, aligned electrodes in one of the arrays. A plurality of phosphor layers are on the ribs, and a UV rich gas discharge medium is sealed in the channels. An interface circuit for receiving video signals from one of a selected plurality of video sources produces, in digital form, pixel data, pixel clock, and horizontal and vertical synchronizing signals from a gray scale drive system is connected between said interface circuit and AC plasma display panel. The gray scale drive system include blue, green and red color channels and pixel-by-pixel gray scale control of each color channel.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 1998Date of Patent: February 6, 2001Assignee: Photonics Systems, Inc.Inventor: Ray A.

Patent number: 6075504Abstract: A high brightness presentation display system includes:a transparent display panel having a viewing side and a non-viewing side, furcated row electrode array, furcated column electrode array defining matrix crosspoints and an electro-responsive display producing medium at said matrix crosspoints. Row electrode drive circuitry is connected to selectively drive electrodes in the row electrode array and column electrode drive circuitry is connected to selectively drive electrodes in the column electrode array such that conjoint voltages on selected row and column electrodes operate the display. The furcated electrode spacing and interelectrode spacings are such as to enhance discrimination, and the multiple sub-pixels due to the furcations of electrodes enhance brightness.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 1993Date of Patent: June 13, 2000Assignee: Photonics Systems, Inc.Inventor: Ray A.
