摘要:
In a plasma-display-panel driving method, a field period is divided into a plurality of sub fields, each of which has an address period for allowing discharge cells to selectively generate an address discharge and a sustain period for allowing the discharge cells having generated the address discharge to generate a sustain discharge by a number of times corresponding to a brightness weight. In the sustain period, a period for setting display electrode pairs to the base potential is disposed between the sustain pulse for causing the final sustain discharge in the sustain period and the previous sustain pulse. In a time interval corresponding to the lighting ratio of the discharge cells in the sub field after applying to the display electrode pairs a voltage for generating the final sustain discharge, a voltage for reducing the potential difference between electrodes of the display electrode pairs is applied to the display electrode pairs. Accordingly, it is possible to generate a stable address discharge and thus to reduce a crosstalk without increasing the voltage for generating the address discharge.

In a plasma display panel apparatus, luminance when a display state of a panel is all-black (all pixels display black throughout one field period) is reduced.In a first period (t7 to t8), in which a first ramp waveform (RW2) dropping from a first potential to a second potential (−Vad+Vset2) is applied to a plurality of scan electrodes (SCi), within a setup period, a second ramp waveform dropping from a third potential (Ve1) to a fourth potential (Ve1−Vf2) is applied to a plurality of sustain electrodes (SUi) in a second period (t7a to t8) in the case of not all-black, and a third ramp waveform (RW40) dropping from the third potential (Ve1) to a fifth potential (Ve1−Vf2−Vu) is applied to the plurality of sustain electrodes (SUi) in a third period (t7x to t8) which is longer than the second period (t7a to t8) in the case of all-black.In addition, a scan pulse (Pa) is not applied to the plurality of scan electrodes (SCi) in a write period in the case of all-black.

A voltage of sustain electrodes (SU1 to SUn) is lowered from Ve1 to a ground potential at a time point t1 immediately before a first SF (sub-field). Then, a pulsed positive voltage Vd is applied to data electrodes (D1 to Dm) at a starting time point t2 of a setup period of the first SF. Immediately before this, a large amount of negative wall charges is stored on the sustain electrodes (SU1 to SUn) and positive wall charges are stored on the data electrodes (D1 to Dm), and therefore application of the pulsed positive voltage Vd to the data electrodes (D1 to Dm) generates strong discharges between the sustain electrodes (SU1 to SUn) and the data electrodes (D1 to Dm). After that, application of a ramp voltage to scan electrodes (SC1 to SCn) is started at a time point t5, generating setup discharges between the scan electrodes (SC1 to SCn) and the sustain electrodes (SU1 to SUn).

The plasma display device is provided with a plasma display panel having a plurality of scanning electrodes and sustaining electrodes which configure a display electrode pair.

In a sustaining period of at least one subfield in one field period, the third sustaining pulse is applied to one electrode of the electrode pair, then just after the application, the second sustaining pulse is applied to the other electrode of the display electrode pair.

A first ramp waveform rising from a first potential (Vi1) to a second potential (Vi2) is applied to a plurality of scan electrodes (SC) in a first half period of a setup period, and a third ramp waveform rising from a fifth potential (a ground potential) to a sixth potential (Vi5, Vi5′) is applied to a plurality of sustain electrodes (SU) in a period, which is shorter than the first half period, within the first half period. A second ramp waveform dropping from a third potential (Vi3) to a fourth potential (Vi4) is applied to the plurality of scan electrodes (SC) in the second half period following the first half period, and a fourth ramp waveform dropping from a seventh potential (Ve) to an eighth potential (Vi6, Vi6′) is applied to the plurality of sustain electrodes (SU) in a period, which is shorter than the second half period, within the second half period. Then, a peak value of the third ramp waveform and a peak value of the fourth ramp waveform are changed based on a state of a plasma display panel.

A plasma display panel is driven by providing a plurality of subfields within one field period, the subfield having an initializing period in which the initializing discharge is generated in a discharge cell by applying a ramp-waveform voltage that is gradually descending to a scan electrode, an address period in which an address discharge is generated in the discharge cell by applying a scan pulse voltage to the scan electrode, and a sustain period in which sustain discharges by the number of times corresponding to the luminance weight are generated in the selected discharge cell. The lowest voltage is set of the descending ramp-waveform voltage in the subfield where the luminance weight is the smallest lower than the same voltage in the subfield where the luminance weight is the largest, and a voltage is kept for a prescribed period after the descending ramp-waveform voltage reaches the lowest voltage in the subfield where the luminance weight is the smallest.
