摘要:
It is an object to provide a driving method of a plasma display panel, whereby a dark contrast can be improved while suppressing an erroneous discharge. In a resetting step in a first unit display period, while a first reset pulse having a predetermined peak electric potential is applied to one of first row electrodes of row electrode pairs formed in the PDP, a second reset pulse having a peak electric potential smaller than that of the first reset pulse is applied to the other of the first row electrodes. In the resetting step in a second unit display period subsequent to the first unit display period, a second reset pulse is applied to each of the one and the other of the first row electrodes.

In display of a 3D image on a plasma display panel, the plasma display apparatus achieves an excellent contrast with reduced crosstalk. For this purpose, the plasma display apparatus includes a driver circuit and a control signal generation circuit. The driver circuit drives the plasma display panel in a manner such that a subfield where an all-cell initializing operation is performed in the initializing period and a sustain discharge is caused in all the discharge cells in the sustain period is set as the first subfield of one field. The control signal generation circuit generates shutter opening/closing timing signals that include a timing signal for the right eye and a timing signal for the left eye. The control signal generation circuit sets both of the timing signal for the right eye and the timing signal for the left eye to OFF in the period of the first subfield.

Crosstalk between right-eye images and left-eye images is suppressed, and high-quality 3D images are displayed. For this purpose, a driving method of a plasma display apparatus is provided. The plasma display apparatus has a plasma display panel and a driver circuit for driving the panel. In this driving method, right-eye images and left-eye images are alternately displayed on the panel by alternately repeating right-eye fields, each of which has a plurality of subfields and displays a right-eye image signal, and left-eye fields, each of which has a plurality of subfields and displays a left-eye image signal. Each subfield has an address period for performing an address operation and a sustain period for performing a sustain operation. In a discharge cell where gradation of a predetermined threshold or higher is displayed, the address operation is prohibited in the subfield disposed last in the field.

In a plasma display apparatus, contrast is enhanced and a stable address discharge is caused. For this purpose, one of a forced initializing operation and a selective initializing operation is performed in initializing periods. A specified-cell initializing subfield and a selective initializing subfield are set in one field. In the specified-cell initializing subfield, the forced initializing operation is performed on specified discharge cells and the selective initializing operation is performed on the other discharge cells. In the selective initializing subfield, the selective initializing operation is performed on all the discharge cells. In the selective initializing period, a down-ramp waveform voltage is applied to the scan electrodes and a positive voltage is applied to the data electrodes. In the selective initializing subfield, based on the load calculated in the address period of the immediately preceding subfield, the minimum voltage of the down-ramp waveform voltage is controlled.

Image display quality in the plasma display apparatus can be enhanced by allowing a stable address operation. For this purpose, the plasma display apparatus includes a scan electrode driver circuit. The scan electrode driver circuit generates driving voltages to be used in a subfield method and applies the driving voltages to scan electrodes. At the end of each sustain period, the scan electrode driver circuit performs the following operation. The scan electrodes are applied with a first ramp waveform voltage that rises from a base electric potential to a first electric potential. Subsequently, the electric potential of the scan electrodes is set to a second electric potential equal to or lower than the first electric potential. Subsequently, the scan electrodes are applied with a second ramp waveform voltage that rises from the second electric potential to a third electric potential higher than the first electric potential.

Sharp contrast is achieved while the driving time in displaying a 3D image on a plasma display panel is shorted. For this purpose, an all-cell initializing subfield for applying up-ramp waveform voltage and down-ramp waveform voltage to a scan electrode in the initializing period is set as the first subfield of one field. The plasma display panel is driven by one of 3D drive and 2D drive. A gradient of at least one of the up-ramp waveform voltage and the down-ramp waveform voltage in the all-cell initializing period during the 3D drive is set to be steeper than a gradient of the one waveform voltage in the all-cell initializing period during the 2D drive. A shutter opening/closing timing signal is generated so that both of a right-eye timing signal and a left-eye timing signal are in the OFF state in the all-cell initializing period during the 3D drive.

In a plasma display apparatus capable of displaying an image for stereoscopic view, the image display quality is enhanced. For this purpose, the plasma display apparatus includes a driver circuit and a timing generation circuit. The driver circuit drives the plasma display panel in a manner such that a field for the right eye and a field for the left eye are alternately repeated, each field is formed of an all-cell initializing subfield and a selective initializing subfield, and the top subfield of each field is the all-cell initializing subfield. The timing generation circuit generates shutter opening/closing timing signals. The timing generation circuit generates the shutter opening/closing timing signals such that both timing signal for opening/closing the right eye shutter and timing signal for opening/closing the left eye shutter are set to OFF in the all-cell initializing period of the fields for the right eye and for the left eye.
摘要:
An address period is shortened while degradation of image display quality of a plasma display apparatus is suppressed. For this purpose, in a driving method for a plasma display apparatus, the following operation is performed. A field for the right eye and a field for the left eye are alternately displayed on the plasma display panel. In each of the field for the right eye and the field for the left eye, a subfield having a smallest luminance weight occurs first, a subfield having a largest luminance weight occurs next, and the other subfields occur thereafter. In the subfield having the smallest luminance weight and the subfield having the largest luminance weight, one-line address operation for applying a scan pulse to each scan electrode is performed. In the other subfields, two-line simultaneous address operation for applying a scan pulse simultaneously to two adjacent scan electrodes is performed.
摘要:
A method for driving a plasma display panel (PDP) that can increase dark contrast without causing erroneous discharges is provided. A unit display period is divided into a plurality of subfields. A reset process and a sustain process are performed in one of the subfields. In the reset process, a reset pulse is applied to row electrodes of the PDP to initialize each discharge cell to an emission mode (or non-emission mode). In the sustain process, a sustain discharge is repeatedly generated a number of times, corresponding to the number of times a sustain pulse is to be applied, in those discharge cells that are in the emission mode. In this case, a peak potential of the reset pulse is changed based on the number of those discharge cells that are maintained in the non-emission mode during the unit display period and the number of times the sustain pulse is to be applied in the sustain process in this subfield.
