L2Situation is identical with first stage.
By above-mentioned explanation as can be seen, because the symmetry of monolateral driver element 22 and 24, phase one is identical on circuit operation with the 11 stage, therefore ensuing circuit operation is exactly that monolateral driver element 22 and 24 both actions are exchanged mutually, repeat ten stages of above-mentioned subordinate phase to the, make inductance L 2 store an offset current in advance with gauge tap M4 and one section appropriate time of M5 conducting simultaneously, thus, when Y terminal voltage Vy rises to Vdc and makes plasma display 12 produce discharge currents, because inductive current I
L2Be enough to provide the required electric current that discharges, therefore, plasma display 12 just can and not produce significantly voltage die situation because of the discharge of ionized gas wherein yet, and plasma display 12 also is able to keep via the charging back and forth that continues the normal demonstration of its picture signal.About the detailed circuit control program of this part because of similar to above-mentioned ten stages of subordinate phase to the, this then no longer row give unnecessary details.
The required minimum voltage of whether lighting of supposing all pixels of control plasma display is 125V, if drive this plasma display panel with the known drive circuit, then because there is the voltage die of 16V, so the input voltage working range must be greater than 141V.Please refer to Figure 18, Figure 18 utilizes the inventive method to drive the voltage and current waveform of plasma display, the ON time 120 of switch M3 is 700ns, from experimental waveform figure, can see, when the gas-discharge current 130 of plasma display produces, plasma display voltage V
PDPThe phenomenon that the aforesaid voltage bust do not occur, represent current compensation method proposed by the invention will eliminate because of the voltage die phenomenon that gas discharge produces effectively really, therefore to a slice plasma display under the same operation environment, drive plasma display if change with discharge current compensating circuit of the present invention, then as long as the voltage power supply scope becomes greater than 125V, and so required voltage source voltage swing only needs 125V.Therefore the operating voltage range size has increased 16V than the known drive circuit, so the voltage die phenomenon of utilizing the discharge current compensating circuit to come the compensation plasma volumetric display can increase the operating voltage range of plasma scope really.
