摘要:
A first signal line (OUTA) supplies a first electric potential to a terminal of an X-side of a load (20) through a switch (SW4). A second signal line (OUTB) supplies a second electric potential to the terminal of the X-side of the load (20) through a switch (SW5). Coil circuits (A and B) are connected between the first signal line (OUTA) and the second signal line (OUTB) and a ground. Furthermore, each of the coil circuits (A and B) is a circuit configured with, for example, a coil and a diode, and the coil is connected so as to carry out L-C resonance with the load (20) through the switches (SW4 and SW5).

A capacitive load drive circuit that has reduced power consumption due to residual carriers, and a PDP apparatus using the same, have been disclosed. In the drive circuit, the power consumption due to the residual carriers, which are formed when a diode provided in parallel to a switch circuit of the capacitive load drive circuit is brought into conduction, is reduced and the switch circuit connected in parallel to the diode is brought into conduction during a period of time from when the diode is brought into conduction until when the potential of a terminal to which the diode is connected changes. By bringing the switch circuit connected in parallel into conduction, a closed circuit is formed by the diode and the switch circuit and the residual carriers formed in the diode are reduced. The voltage of the closed circuit is substantially zero V and, therefore, power consumption is very small even if a current due to the residual carriers flows through the closed circuit.

Method for driving a plasma display panel. At least one first discharge sustaining pulse is applied to a first pair of display electrodes, and at least one second discharge sustaining pulse applied to an adjacent pair of display electrodes. The first and second discharge sustaining pulses are applied such that they are in the same phase as one another and/or such that a current in the first pair of display electrodes flows in the opposite direction from a current in the adjacent pair of display electrodes.
摘要:
An electrode drive circuit performs interlaced scanning, ensuring that the phases of the sustaining pulse in odd-numbered lines and even-numbered lines among L1 to L8 between surface discharge electrodes are the reverse of each other. With this, when either odd-numbered lines or even-numbered lines are displayed, the voltages applied between the electrodes of the undisplayed lines are at 0, eliminating the necessity for partitioning walls on the surface discharge electrodes. In surface discharge electrodes, X electrodes are provided on the two sides of a Y electrode and the area between the Y electrode and the X electrode on one side is assigned a display line at an odd-numbered frame, and the area between the Y electrode and the X electrode on the other side is assigned a display line in an even-numbered frame. Alternate areas between the surface discharge electrodes are assigned as blind lines and a discharge light emission in the blind lines is blocked or incident light to the blind lines from the outside is absorbed. Address electrodes are provided for each monochromatic pixel column and selectively connected with the pads above them, performing simultaneous selection of lines.

摘要:
A signal transfer circuit in a pre-drive circuit converts the reference potential of a control signal, supplied from a drive control circuit, to the reference potential of an output element. The control signal is then amplified in a signal amplifier circuit and thereafter supplied to the output element. This makes it possible to isolate the reference potential and transfer the control signal to the output element even when the reference potentials of the drive control circuit and the control signal are different from that of the output element. The drive control circuit can also be prevented from being affected by variations in potential of the output element or the like.
摘要:
A driving apparatus comprises switches SW1 to Sw3, a first signal line OUTA, and a second signal line OUTB. By ON/OFF control of the switches SW1 to Sw3, the voltage of the first signal line OUTA is changed between a positive voltage (+1/2V) level, which is smaller than a voltage V to be applied to a load 20, and the ground level, and the voltage of the second signal line OUTB is changed between the ground level and a negative voltage (−1/2V). By ON/OFF control of switches SW4 and SW5, the positive and negative voltages given by the first and second signal lines are selectively applied to the load 20. The maximum voltage applied to each element in the driving apparatus can be thereby lowered to the voltage (1/2V), which is smaller than the voltage V to be applied to the load 20. This makes it possible to hold down the breakdown voltage of each element to half the conventional value.
