摘要:
A plasma display calculates a screen load ratio from a plurality of video signals input during one frame, determines a total number of sustain pulses of the frame according to the screen load ratio, and determines a number of sustain pulses allocated to each subfield from the total number of sustain pulses. In addition, the plasma display divides a first number of sustain pulses allocated to at least one of the plurality of subfields into a second number of sustain pulses having a first period and a third number of sustain pulses having a second period different from the first period.

A plasma display panel with improved power efficiency and visual characteristics and contrast. The plasma display panel includes a first substrate and a second substrate facing the first substrate. A plurality of barrier ribs are on a side of the first substrate facing the second substrate and define a plurality of discharge cells. Sustain electrodes and scan electrodes extend on a side of the second substrate facing the first substrate, and each of the sustain electrodes and the scan electrodes has a bus electrode. One of the scan electrodes forms a discharge gap with a corresponding one of the sustain electrodes, wherein one of the sustain electrodes corresponds to two adjacent rows of discharge cells among the plurality of discharge cells, and the bus electrode of the one of the scan electrodes is adjacent to the discharge gap.

A method for driving a display panel to produce an efficient sustain discharge is provided. In one embodiment, the display panel includes a plurality of scanning electrodes that are driven by a sustain discharge signal. A corresponding plurality of common electrode groups is driven individually by different sustain discharge signals. Sustain discharge is performed by alternately applying high level sustain pulses to each the plurality of scanning electrodes and each the plurality of common electrode groups. Sustain pulses with a high level are applied sequentially to each the plurality of common electrode groups in time intervals between the sustain pulses with the high level applied to the plurality of scanning electrodes. Therefore, it is possible to maintain a duty rate of a sustain discharge signal near 50% while reducing a peak value of currents generated upon sustain discharge driving, thereby achieving stable sustain discharge.

A plasma display panel (PDP) driving method and a PDP gray-representing method for improving representation performance of low gray scales is disclosed. A voltage rising from a low level voltage to a reset voltage of a reset period of a subsequent subfield is applied to a scan electrode, without having a sustain period, after performing an address operation of the subfield with the minimum weight. The discharge cell selected in the address period of the minimum weight is discharged in an initial part of the gradually rising voltage.
