摘要:
In a PDP driving circuit, first and second inductors are coupled to a panel capacitor. The driving circuit stores a first energy in the first inductor through a current in the first direction while the voltage at the panel capacitor is maintained to be a first voltage, and uses the first energy and resonance between the panel capacitor and the first inductor to reduce the voltage at the panel capacitor to a second voltage. Next, the driving circuit maintains the voltage at the panel capacitor to be the second voltage, recovers the energy remaining in the first inductor, stores a second energy in a second inductor through a current in the second direction, and uses the energy stored in the second inductor to increase the voltage at the panel capacitor to the first voltage. Therefore, rising and falling time of the voltage at the panel capacitor is shortened, and zero-voltage switching is possible when the driving circuit has a parasitic component.

A two-dimensional planar display device includes a plurality of plasma discharge shift registers positioned along rows of a display matrix. An additional shift register positioned along one column at the edge of the display matrix causes a plasma discharge to be transferred to the beginning of each successive row shift register. By transferring a discharge along each position in successive rows, a discharge is propagated in a two-dimensional scanned manner over the face of the display matrix. By suitably modifying the level of the propagating signals in accordance with an applied video signal, the brightness of the scanned discharge is modulated to produce a variable gray scale image.

摘要:
In a display device for pictures, etc., adequate brightness of pictures to be displayed is provided by varying the luminous times of the luminous elements making up the a display panel. The luminous elements receive multiple-bit codes representing levels of brightness from signals to be displayed. A time corresponding to a field of television signals is divided into a plurality of sub-fields corresponding to the bits of a multiple-bit code. The plurality of sub-fields have lengths of time proportional to weights of the corresponding bits. The luminous elements have different levels of brightness in sub-fields corresponding to bits of a multiple-bit binary code. For each luminous element, the time interval from a light emission start time in a sub-field where the first light emission occurs in a time corresponding to a field of television signals till a light emission start time in a sub-field where the last light emission occurs in a time corresponding to the next field of television signals is made shorter than the critical fusion period of the perception characteristic of human eyes.
