PURPOSE:To provide a gas discharge type display device of simple structure, which is equipped with a long lifetime, high brightness, and low power consumption and whose power supply is embodied small and light and is manufacturable at a low cost. CONSTITUTION:Address electrodes 2, dielectric substance layer 3, and cathodes 4 are laid one over another on a photo-transmissive base board of glass 1, and anodes 6 having resistor 6a group 6a and electrode 6b group and an insulative layer 7 are furnished one over the other on an insulative base board 5, wherein the anodes 6 are intersectingly arranged opposing to the address electrodes 2 while the dielectric substance layer 3 and insulative layer 7 are interposed in between. The driving method for this display device consists of impressing a scan pulse can the anodes 6, impressing a write pulse on the address electrode 2 mating with the discharge cell 9 in which a write is to be made so that a write discharge takes place, impressing a retention voltage on the cathodes 4, continuing the retention discharge condition during the period the retention voltage is being impressed, and generating a light emission from the discharge cell 9 into which write is made. In the same manner, scan is made for the group of anodes, and thereby light emissions are performed from all discharge cells 9 into which write is made to generate display of one image.
