Plasma display panel device and a selective erasure driving method

摘要

The present invention is a plasma display device and display panel drive method that allow a more rapid select operation to be stably implemented by increasing the discharge probability of selective discharge. The panel of the display device comprises pixel cells (PC) consisting of a display discharge cell (C1) and a control discharge cell (C2). The display device further comprises an address means that sequentially applies a positive scan pulse to a first row electrode of each of the display panel row electrode pairs in the address cycle while sequentially applying a pixel data pulse corresponding to the pixel data at the same timing as the scan pulse to each of the display panel column electrodes one display line at a time so that the column electrode side constitutes a cathode, such that an address discharge is selectively produced in the second discharge cell. A sustain means applies a sustain pulse to eac
