New Selective Reset Waveform for a Large-Sustain-Gap Structure in AC PDPs

AC PDP의 장방전 구조의 구동을 위한 새로운 셀렉티브 리셋파형

A selective reset waveform which can improve the dark room contrast ratio in a large sustain gap structure is suggested in this paper. When conventional selective reset discharge is performed, frequent unexpected misfiring happens because of high Vxb and much quantity of negative wall charge formed on Y electrode during final sustain period. The misfiring between sustain electrode and address electrode can be removed by lowering Vxb value and the misfiring between address electrode and scan electrode can be prevented by applying last sustain pulse of 40us and rectangular pulse of Vscan on Y electrode. When the selective reset waveform has one time reset per 8 subfields, black luminance of 1.55 cd/m2 can be obtained without any misfiring.
