Abstract
A plasma display apparatus and a method of driving the plasma display apparatus are provided. The plasma display apparatus sets a part of the entire image signal corresponding to a specific region of a plasma display panel to a gray level value 0.
Claims27
A plasma display apparatus comprising:
- a plasma display panel comprising an electrode;
- a region setting unit for setting a part of entire image signal corresponding to a specific region of the plasma display panel to a gray level value 0, and for outputting image data corresponding to the gray level value 0 for the duration of time equal to or more than predetermined frames;
- and
- an electrode driver for supplying a driving signal corresponding to the image data to the electrode.
A plasma display apparatus comprising:
- a plasma display panel comprising a plurality of electrodes;
- a region setting unit for setting a part of entire image signal corresponding to a specific region of the plasma display panel to a gray level value 0, and for outputting image data corresponding to the gray level value 0;
- and
- an electrode driver for cutting off a driving signal supplied to one or more electrodes of the plurality of electrodes located in the specific region.
A method of driving a plasma display apparatus comprising a plasma display panel comprising a plurality of electrodes, comprising,
- setting a part of entire image signal corresponding to a specific region of the plasma display panel to a gray level value 0;
- outputting image data corresponding to the gray level value 0 for the duration of time equal to or more than predetermined frames;
- and
- supplying a driving signal corresponding to the image data to one or more electrodes of the plurality of electrodes located inside the specific region.
A method of driving a plasma display apparatus comprising a plasma display panel comprising a plurality of electrodes,
- wherein on the occasion of outputting an image signal, whose a gray level value equals to 0, corresponding to at least a portion region of a specific region of the plasma display panel for the duration of time equal to or more than predetermined frames, a driving signal for driving a cell located in at least the portion region of the specific region is cut off.
