PLASMA DISPLAY

摘要

A plasma display in which erase discharge is reliably made to take place even if the discharge sustaining period is shortened in accordance with the enhancement of the definition and therefore error discharge hardly occurs. The duration of the pulse applied to the second half of the discharge sustaining period is greater than the duration of the pulse other than the pulse first applied before the second half of the discharge sustaining period. The erase discharge is caused by using a generally-called narrow pulse during the erase period. As a result, the wall voltage of the discharge cell at the end of the discharge sustaining period can be higher than conventional. Therefore the erase discharge is reliably made to take place and error discharge hardly occurs.
