Abstract
A PDP driving method that is adaptive for a high-speed driving. In the method, an upper driving signal is applied to supply a data to address electrode lines provided at an upper block. A lower driving signal is applied to supply a data to address electrode lines provided at a lower block in such a manner to overlap with the upper driving signal.
Claims22
A method of driving a plasma display panel divided into an upper block and a lower block, said method comprising the steps of:
- applying an upper driving signal for supplying a data to address electrode lines provided at the upper block;
- and
- applying a lower driving signal for supplying a data to address electrode lines provided at the lower block in such a manner to overlap with the upper driving signal and to utilize asymmetric sustaining.
A driving apparatus for a plasma display panel utilizing an asymmetry sustaining wherein the plasma display panel is divided into an upper block and a lower block, said driving apparatus comprising:
- a first address driver for driving first address electrode lines included in the upper block;
- a second address driver for driving second address electrode lines included in the lower block;
- and
- control means for applying first and second control signals having a desired phase difference to each of the first and second address drivers.
A plasma display apparatus comprising:
- a first address driver for applying a first driving signal to a first address electrode line included in a first block;
- a second address driver for applying a first driving signal to a second address electrode line included in a second block;
- and
- a controller controlling the first address driver and the second address driver in order to partially overlap the first driving signal and the second driving signal.
