METHOD FOR DRIVING PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL AND PLASMA DISPLAY DEVICE

摘要

Provided are a method for driving a PDP capable of ensuring the sufficient number of subfields to ensure the image quality even when being an ultra-high-definition panel, thereby enabling display with sufficient brightness, and a PDP device. One field period is divided into plural subfields each comprising a write period and a sustain period. Plural display electrode pairs are divided into plural (N) display electrode pair groups, and the subfield start timing is set for each of the display electrode pair groups. When the time required to perform one write operation in each of discharge cells of the entire panel is taken as Tw, the time length of the sustain period of each subfield of each display electrode pair group is set so as not to exceed Tw×(N-1)/N.
