PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve image display quality by stabilizing write-in operation by suppressing the occurrence of abnormal discharge in a write-in period, even in a plasma display panel being made in a highly precise manner. SOLUTION: The plasma display panel includes, in a field, a plurality of sub-fields having: an initialization period in which falling-downward inclination voltage for a falling initialization is applied to a scanning electrode; a write-in period; a maintenance period in which a sustain pulse of the number of times in accordance with weight of luminance set by sub-field is alternately applied to the pair of display electrodes. In the initialization period, downward inclination voltage for adjustment generated later in terms of time than downward inclination voltage for initialization is applied to the sustain electrode by adjusting the phases of the lowest voltage of the downward inclination voltage for initialization and the lowest voltage of the downward inclination voltage for adjustment. The lowest voltage Vi4 of the downward inclination voltage for initialization and the lowest voltage Vi5 of the downward inclination voltage for adjustment are made lower than a sub-field having large weight of luminance in a sub-field having small weight of luminance.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To stably generate a write discharge even in a plasma display panel which has a large screen and high definition. SOLUTION: The plasma display panel generates a first ramped waveform voltage which gently rises in an initialization period of at least one sub-field in one field period, generates a second ramped waveform voltage which has a steeper gradient than the first ramped waveform voltage and which immediately falls once the rising waveform voltage reaches a predetermined potential in the ending of a sustain period, and alternately generates at least two kinds of sustain pulses, i.e. a first sustain pulse which varies from a base potential to a first potential and then falls to the base potential, and a second sustain pulse which varies from the base potential to the first potential and then falls to a second potential and further falls to the base potential in the sustain period. The second sustain pulse is generated right before the second ramped waveform voltage. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To uniformize display luminance of respective discharge cells, by reducing an after-image phenomenon itself. SOLUTION: A method is provided for driving a panel having a plurality of discharge cells having a scan electrode and a sustain electrode. One field period is constituted by arranging a plurality of subfields each having an initialization period for generating initialization discharge by the discharge cells, a write period for generating write discharge by the discharge cells and a sustain period for emitting the light by the discharge cells by alternately applying a sustain pulse onto the scan electrode and the sustain electrode. The sustain pulse is either a first sustain pulse for generating a light emission with one peak in the discharge cell or a second sustain pulse for generating a light emission with two peaks in the discharge cell. The rise time of the second sustain pulse applied onto the scan electrode and the rise time of the second sustain pulse applied onto the sustain electrode are set independently of each other based on the percentage of the discharge cells in which the light is emitted during the sustain period of the subfield.
