Abstract: A modular control system is provided for a gas panel of the type having an array of row wires and column wires that form light emitting cells at their crossover points. A row counter and a column counter provide selection signals for entering characters sequentially on the panel. The counters provide borrow and carry signals to components that control the display. Thus, the control operates without regard to the actual size of the display and provides a modular construction for displays of various sizes.

Abstract: In plasma display panels requiring interstitial spacer elements within the display area to provide and maintain a uniform discharge gap, the spacers are positioned between lines which constitute the display. The lines adjacent the spacer elements experience a significant decrease in operating margin. This margin decrease is compensated for by either jogging the lines adjacent the spacers outwardly, by widening the lines in the affected areas or a combination of both. Various embodiments for providing this compensation are illustrated and described. KI9 77018
