A method for driving a plasma display panel applies, within a subfield among the n subfields, a narrow-width pulse having a pulse width equal to or less than 2 &mgr;s to first electrodes in order to cause an erase discharge while terminating a discharge caused between the first and second electrodes, and applies a voltage pulse to third electrodes so that the voltage pulse falls at the same time as the narrow-width pulse falls.

A drive unit is dedicated to a planar display having a display panel in which cells being arranged in the form of a matrix and having a memory function and discharge glow function are formed, in which one of each pair of electrodes on the same substrate which are responsible for discharge glow is a common electrode connected in common. The drive unit includes a common electrode drive circuit for applying an alternating voltage to the common electrode, and a power save circuit that when the common electrode is changed from a high potential to a low potential, restores and accumulates power applied to the common electrode, and that when the common electrode is changed from the high potential to the low potential, applies accumulated power to the common electrode. The power save circuit includes a restoration channel that includes a capacitive element and inductance element and that restores power, and an application channel that includes an inductance element and that applies accumulated power to the common electrode.

The power supply connects the input direct-current voltage to a positive polarity side of a first capacitor of a plurality of N capacitors connected in series to each other and connects a negative polarity side of the first capacitor to a ground (step 1); connects the input direct-current voltage to a positive polarity side of an Mth capacitor of the N capacitors and connects a negative polarity side of the Mth capacitor to the ground (step 2); repeats step 2 for M=2 to N (step 3); and outputs a voltage of the positive polarity side of the first capacitor to the plasma display panel (step 4).

A display for performing gray-scale display according to a subfield method, in which the frame memory area is minimized, has been disclosed. The display comprises: a main unit including a video signal source and a display interface having a frame memory; a display panel unit including a matrix panel for performing gray-scale display according to the subfield method, a driver for driving the matrix panel, and a display control unit for receiving display signals from the display interface in the main unit and controlling the driver according to the display signals; and a cable for linking the main unit and display panel unit. The display interface transmits display signals covering one frame in units of a subfield. This obviates the necessity of a frame memory that is employed in a known display adopting a CRT interface as an interface between the main unit and display panel unit and that is used to convert display signals adapted to the CRT interface into those adapted to the subfield method.
摘要:
In a plasma display panel, an analogue brightness value given by a variable resistor is periodically converted into a digital brightness value and stored in a memory. A digital brightness value of a current period is compared with the digital brightness value of the next preceding period stored in the memory, to produce a difference brightness value which is compared with a predetermined brightness value and, if larger than the predetermined value, the brightness value stored in the memory is updated. Alternatively, power consumption of a display device is detected and, when the power consumption is larger than a set point, a brightness value is gradually decreased and, when the power consumption is smaller than the set point, the brightness value is gradually adjusted to a brightness set value.

A display apparatus, that can prevent thermal destruction and burning with a simple structure, has been disclosed. In the apparatus it is judged that there is possibility of a pattern, whose area with high brightness is small, being displayed frequently, when a state in which the total light emission pulse number remains large occurs with high frequency, and if such a state is detected, the total light emission pulse number (sustain frequency) is reduced to prevent the thermal destruction and burning.
