<p>An integrated circuit for driving a plasma display panel comprises an integrated driver (ID). The integrated driver (ID) comprises:- a recovery terminal (OUTR) for coupling an energy recovery circuit (L1,C1) to the integrated driver;- an output terminal (OUT) for coupling the integrated driver (ID) to an electrode of the plasma display panel;- transistors (M1,M2,M3,M4);- gate drivers (G1, G2, G3, B), each coupled to a corresponding one of the transistors (M1,M2,M3,M4) for driving the transistors (M1,M2,M3,M4);- a first reference voltage source (VDDA); and- a second reference voltage source (GND). The transistors (M1,M2,M3,M4) are arranged for coupling the output terminal (OUT) to either the first reference voltage source (VDDA), the second reference voltage source (GND) or the recovery terminal (OUTR). Such an arrangement enables the integrated driver (ID) to supply the waveforms required for scanning as well as sustaining a line of a plasma display panel.</p> |
