Display panel with energy recovery system

摘要

In a flatpanel display apparatus comprising plasma discharge cells (c) having sustain electrodes (Su) and scan electrodes (Sc), a drive circuit having a circuit ( 23 ) for providing data to the discharge cells (c) incorporating an energy recovery circuit and means for activating the energy recovery circuit is provided. The data supplied to the discharge cells (c) is arranged in subfields, and the means for activating the energy recovery circuit activate the energy recovery circuit only for a part of the total number of subfields.
