Plasma display apparatus and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

There is provided a plasma display apparatus which scans the scan electrodes (Y) with at least one scan type among a plurality of scan types and a driving method thereof. Therefore, it is possible to prevent an excessive displacement current and thus protecting a data driver integrated circuit from electrical damage, by scanning the scan electrodes (Y) with at least one scan type among the plurality of scan types. The plasma display apparatus comprises a plurality of scan electrodes; a plurality of sustain electrodes formed in parallel to the scan electrodes; data electrodes intersecting the scan electrodes and the sustain electrodes; a scan driver scanning scan electrodes with one scan type among a plurality of scan types having different scan orders which scan the plurality of scan electrodes in an address period; a data driver supplying data to the data electrodes corresponding to the one scan type; and a sustain driver supplying a first sustain bios voltage that is less than a second sustain bios voltage supplied to the sustain electrodes in the address period from a setdown period of a reset period before the address period to a period before a first scan pulse is supplied to the scan electrodes.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a plasma display device, more particularly, to a plasma display device that scans a scanning electrode in one or more scanning types and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] In a conventional plasma display panel, a cell is formed by forming a spacer between a front panel and a rear panel, and each cell is filled with a main discharge gas such as neon (Ne), helium (He), or neon and A mixture of helium (Ne+He) and an inert gas containing a small amount of xenon (Xe). Multiple cells make up a pixel. For example, a red (R) cell, a green (G) cell, and a blue (B) cell constitute one pixel. [0003] When this plasma display panel is discharged under a high frequency voltage, the inert gas generates vacuum ultraviolet rays and causes the phosphors formed between the spacers to emit light, thereby presenting images. Plasma display panels can be made thin and lightweight, and such plasma display panel...

Problems solved by technology

[0013] When the image data is a specific pattern in which logic values ​​1 and 0 are repeated, the displacement current flowing to the data driver IC increases too much, so there is a problem that electronic damage such as depleted data driver IC occurs
