摘要： In a driving circuit of a plasma display, a drain of a first transistor is coupled to a scan electrode and a switch driver is coupled between a gate and a source of the first transistor. The switch driver turns on the first transistor to reduce voltage of the scan electrode and charge a capacitor coupled to the source of the first transistor. When voltage across the capacitor is increased by a predetermined voltage, the first transistor is turned off and the scan electrode is floated. By repeating this operation, voltage of the scan electrode is gradually reduced. When a discharge is generated in a discharge cell of the plasma display by decreasing voltage of the scan electrode, voltage of the floated scan electrode is increased. The switch driver further discharges the capacitor when voltage variance of the floated scan electrode increases.

摘要： A power recovery circuit for a plasma display device and a driving method for the circuit. An inductor is coupled to form a resonance circuit and to generate a voltage difference between two electrodes of the same type that are coupled to the two terminals of a power recovery circuit. The resulting circuit allows formation of resonance between the two electrodes and power recovery from the panel capacitors formed in a PDP. Instead of hard-switching, the power recovery circuit is also used to maintain the voltage difference at the pre power recovery level after recovering power. As a result, power consumption is reduced when changing the voltage level of the two electrodes from the same voltage level to different voltage levels and vice versa. Further, elements having the same function are combined into a single element to simplify the circuit.

摘要： A plasma display device includes a plasma display panel having discharge cells formed between a plurality of first electrodes and a plurality of second electrodes and a driving circuit dividing one frame into a plurality of subfields, each subfield including a reset period, an address period, and a sustain period, and applying a driving voltage to the first electrodes and the second electrodes. During a sustain period of each subfield, a sustain discharge pulse is alternately applied to the first and second electrodes for triggering a sustain discharge. 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.

摘要： A plasma display supplies a high level voltage and a low level voltage to first and second electrodes performing a sustain discharge in opposite phases during a sustain period. After a voltage of the first electrodes is decreased through a first inductor connected to the first electrodes, the first electrodes are floated to maintain the voltage of the first electrodes at a second voltage. Then, while the voltage of the first electrodes is changed from the second voltage to a low level voltage, the magnitude of the current flowing through a second inductor connected to the second electrodes is increased. Then, the voltage of the second electrodes is increased to a high level voltage using the second inductor. After energy is accumulated in the second inductor, the voltage of the second electrode is increased to the high level voltage.

摘要： A plasma display device includes: a sustain drive unit that applies a sustain pulse having a first voltage and a second voltage lower than the first voltage to a plurality of first electrodes; a scan drive unit including a plurality of selection circuits coupled to the first electrodes and each including first and second switches; and a clamping unit including a clamping diode coupled to at least one of the selection circuits and clamps the voltage of the first electrode at the first voltage when it exceeds the first voltage. The plasma display device can prevent overshoot that can occur when the first voltage of the sustain pulse is applied to the first electrode in a sustain period so as to apply a stable discharge pulse. The magnitude of the overshoot may depend on the distance between the scan driving board and each of the plurality of selection circuits IC.
