AC TYPE PDP AND DRIVING METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To lower impression voltage for addressing, and facilitate driving by arranging a second address electrode extending in the line direction in a position closer to a first address electrode than first and second sustained electrodes. SOLUTION: An AC type (plasma display panel)PDP has first and second sustained electrodes X and Y extending in the line direction of matrix display on a first base board 11, and has a first address electrode A1 extending in the row direction on a second base board 21 opposed to the first base board 11 through a discharge space 30. In this case, a second address electrode A2 extending in the line direction is arranged in a position on the first base board 11 closer to the first address electrode A1 than the sustained electrodes X and Y.
