  • Plasma display panel initialization and driving method and apparatus
    Patent number: 7825874
    Abstract: An initialization and driving method for a plasma display panel. When the plasma display panel is turned on, a voltage at a first electrode is increased from a first voltage to a second voltage, and a voltage at a second electrode is reduced from a fourth voltage to the fifth voltage for the purpose of forming wall charges in cells while a third voltage is applied to the second electrode. A voltage is applied to the first electrode and the second electrode to establish a difference between the first electrode and the second electrode to be alternately a sixth voltage and a negative voltage of the sixth voltage, and therefore the cell is discharged.

  • Driving device and method of plasma display panel by floating a panel electrode
    Patent number: 7737921
    Abstract: Disclosed are a driving device and a driving method for a plasma display panel (PDP). A panel capacitor is formed by a scan electrode and a sustain electrode. The charges are moved from the panel capacitor to a capacitor by turning on a transistor which is connected between the scan electrode and the capacitor. By this method, the voltage of the panel capacitor is steeply reduced so that a discharge is generated in the panel capacitor. When the voltage of the capacitor increases because of the charges moved from the panel capacitor, the gate-source voltage of the transistor is reduced. As a result, the transistor is turned off so that the scan electrode is floated. Accordingly, the discharge is steeply quenched so that the wall charges are precisely controlled. After the capacitor is discharged, the above-noted operation may be repeated.

  • Plasma display and plasma display driver and method of driving plasma display
    Patent number: 7733304
    Abstract: A plasma display includes a plurality of scan electrodes. A scan voltage is sequentially supplied to the plurality of scan electrodes, and a non-scan voltage that is higher than the scan voltage is supplied to scan electrodes to which the scan voltage is supplied. The non-scan voltage is generated by dividing a voltage that is higher than the non-scan voltage and the scan voltage. Thus, a voltage source for supplying the non-scan voltage can be eliminated.

A width of a last sustain discharge pulse applied to the second electrode is set to be greater than a width of other sustain discharge pulses for selected subfields. The subfields may be selected based on whether a total number of the sustain discharge pulses during the sustain period is less than a critical number of sustain discharge pulses.

  • Plasma display device and driving method thereof
    Patent number: 7580050
    Abstract: In a driving method of a plasma display device, a final voltage of a falling ramp voltage is set to a discharge firing voltage of all the discharge cells after applying a gradually rising ramp voltage during a reset period. A difference in voltage applied to an address electrode and to a scan electrode is set to be greater than the maximum discharge firing voltage in turn-on discharge cells in an address period. A bias voltage applied in a rising reset period, an address period, and a sustain period of subfields that express low grayscales is increased, and the address electrode is biased with a positive voltage in the sustain period. With this configuration, the problem of worsening the margins by loss of wall charges is solved since addressing is not influenced by the wall charges and performance of expressing low grayscales is increased.
