The driving circuit of plasma display panel
Technical field
The invention relates to a kind of driving circuit of capacity load, and particularly relevant for a kind of driving circuit of plasma display panel, it can avoid plasma display unit (capacity load) because of two interpolar suddenly-applied short circuits or apply the big electric current that high pressure occurs, and and then reduces energy loss and electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Background technology
The size of plasma display panel (plasma display pane1) approaches greatly, and does not have radiant rays, is the main flow of following large-sized monitor therefore.The principle of plasma display panel is that the alternating current by high voltagehigh frequency drives the electric charge in the plasma back and forth, emits ultraviolet ray and hit the fluorescent agent on the tube wall and emit beam in the process that drives.The circuit characteristic of plasma display panel can be represented by electric capacity of rough usefulness.When driving plasma display panel, to the two poles of the earth suddenly-applied short circuit of capacity load or apply high pressure, can cause very big electric current and produce many energy losses and electromagnetic interference (EMI) in moment, this be the driving circuit institute urgent problem that drives plasma display panel.The driving circuit of traditional plasma display board adopts the mode of inductance and capacitor resonance in order to reduce above-mentioned immediate current, makes gentle the discharging and recharging of plasma display panel, but the too complicated and too high problem of cost of circuit is generally all arranged.
Please refer to Fig. 1, this is the circuit diagram of known single sided driving circuit 10.Single sided driving circuit 10 is to be used for driving plasma display unit 14.Plasma display unit 14 is the load capacitance C with an equivalence
LRepresent.Single sided driving circuit 10 includes a two-way gauge tap 12, four transistor M11, M12, M15 and M16, two diode D11 and D12, inductance L 11, one a big capacitor C 11 and two a direct voltage source V and V
GTwo-way gauge tap 12 comprises two transistor M13 and M14 and two and is used for Zener (Zener) the diode ZD11 and the ZD12 of pressure limiting.
Fig. 2 then is the sequential chart of Fig. 1 single sided driving circuit 10.Wherein A represents the current potential of two-way gauge tap 12 input points, B represents the current potential of two-way gauge tap 12 output points, C represents the current potential of the grid of transistor M11, D represents the current potential of the grid of transistor M12, E represents the current potential of the grid of transistor M15, F represents the current potential of the grid of transistor M16, and Vo represents the current potential of plasma display unit 14 output terminals, Io then represent the to flow through electric current of plasma display unit 14.When oxide-semiconductor control transistors M11 and M15,, therefore the control of Electric potentials of the grid of transistor M11 and M15 can be made transistor M11 and M15 conducting when the electronegative potential, otherwise then it can be opened circuit because the source electrode of transistor M11 and M15 all is to be electrically connected on a noble potential.When oxide-semiconductor control transistors M12 and M16,, therefore the control of Electric potentials of the grid of transistor M12 and M16 can be made transistor M12 and M16 conducting when the noble potential, otherwise then it can be opened circuit because the source electrode of transistor M12 and M16 all is a ground connection.The shown control program of the control timing figure of Fig. 2 is as follows: step (1) is before period T1, and the current potential Vo of plasma display unit 14 is 0, transistor M11 with
M15 is for opening circuit, M12 and M16 be conducting step (2) in period T1, the grid C of transistor M11 can be controlled so as to and be electronegative potential 22, therefore
Can make transistor M11 conducting, A point current potential can rise to V
GWith 12 actions of control two-way switch,
The B current potential also can and then rise to V/2, and this moment, inductance and plasma display unit 14 beginnings were humorous
Shake, output terminal current potential Vo can slowly be charged to V; Step (3) is in period T2, and the grid D of transistor M12 can be controlled so as to and be noble potential 24, this meeting
Make transistor M12 conducting, A point current potential can be for reducing to 0 with control two-way switch 12, and this can make B
More to rising to V, this moment, the output terminal current potential still remained on V to current potential; Owing to transistor M15 this moment
The drain electrode and source electrode between potential difference (PD) level off to 0 and make the drain electrode and source electrode between the parasitic diode conducting,
This moment, the grid E with transistor M15 reduced to electronegative potential 26 so that transistor M15 produces zero potential
Switch; Step (4) is in period T3, and the grid C of transistor M11 can be reduced to electronegative potential 28 once again and make crystal
Pipe M11 conducting, A point current potential can rise once again and make B point potential drop extremely with conducting two-way switch 12
V/2, the grid E of transistor M15 can be controlled as noble potential and transistor M15 is opened circuit, this
The time inductance and plasma display unit 14 beginning resonance, load capacitance C
LSlowly discharge and make defeated
Go out terminal potential Vo and reduce to 0; Step (5) is in period T4, and the grid D of transistor M12 can be controlled as noble potential and make transistor M12
Conducting, A point current potential can reduce to 0 so that two-way switch 12 open circuit, this moment output terminal current potential Vo
Remain 0, B point current potential also reduces to 0, because the potential difference (PD) between transistor M16 drain electrode and source electrode
Tend to be 0 and make the drain electrode and source electrode between the parasitic diode conducting, this moment with transistor M16's
Grid F raises to noble potential 30 so that transistor M16 conducting is switched to reach zero potential; Step (6) repeating step (2) to (5) is so that the charging back and forth that plasma display unit 14 is continued.
Because the inductance L and the load capacitance C of single sided driving circuit 10
LA resonant circuit with energy exchange function be can form, inductance L and load capacitance C therefore are stored in
LOn energy just can intercourse.Yet in the process of exchange, in order to make the conducting resistance that energy can be not a large amount of consume and make the electrical potential energy of output end vo to do mild variation by transistor M15 and M16, therefore by the ON time of oxide-semiconductor control transistors M15 and M16, it is finished that is the current potential of output end vo is 0 or just conducting during V at resonance, and so just can reduce load capacitance in a large number discharges and recharges the energy that is consumed.And transistor M15 and M16 be current potential between drain-to-source itself are just conducting in 0 o'clock, therefore are called zero potential and switch.
Please refer to Fig. 3, this is the circuit diagram of the bilateral driving circuit 40 that is made of single sided driving circuit 10 shown in Figure 1.Bilateral driving circuit 40 has the two ends that two single sided driving circuits 10 are electrically connected on plasma display unit 14, is used for driving the plasmas in the plasma display unit 14 so that plasma display unit 14 is able to keep via the charging back and forth that continues the demonstration of image signal in back and forth mode.Two-way switch 42 in the single sided driving circuit 10 is two-way gauge tap 12, transistor M11 and M12 and the direct voltage source V by Fig. 1 driving circuit 10
GConstitute, switch Qa and Qb are made of transistor M15 and M16.Because the element complexity that bilateral driving circuit 40 is used, and need to use a big capacitor C 11, so its circuit complexity, control is difficult and cost is also high.
