Abstract

A plasma display device includes plasma display panel and a data driver. Plasma display panel includes a front substrate and a rear substrate faced to each other to form a discharge space therebetween. The front substrate includes a plurality of display electrodes. The rear substrate includes a plurality of data electrodes intersected with the display electrodes. Discharges cells are formed at the intersections of the display electrodes and data electrodes. Data electrodes have a plurality of main electrode parts provided in portions facing the display electrodes, and wiring parts that connect main electrode parts together and have a width smaller than the widths of main electrode parts. The widths of main electrode parts in a peripheral portion of plasma display panel are larger than the widths of main electrode parts in a central portion thereof.

Claims2

Dependent claims

A plasma display device comprising:

a plasma display panel including:
a front substrate having a plurality of display electrodes formed thereon, each of the display electrodes including a scan electrode and a sustain electrode;
and
a rear substrate having a plurality of data electrodes formed thereon so that the data electrodes are intersected with the display electrodes,
wherein the front substrate and the rear substrate are faced to each other to form a discharge space therebetween so that a discharge cell is formed at an intersection of the display electrode and the data electrode;
and
a data driver coupled to the data electrode for supplying voltage to the data electrode,
wherein the data electrode includes:
a main electrode part provided at a position facing the display electrode;
and
a wiring part that couples the main electrode parts and has a width smaller than a width of the main electrode part, and
at least one of the width of the main electrode part provided in a peripheral portion of the plasma display panel is larger than the width of the main electrode part provided in a central portion of the plasma display panel.
