Abstract

PURPOSE:To increase reliability of a fluorescent character display tube by independently separating both a VSS electrode, serving as power-supply terminal of a driving circuit part 5, and a negative electrode of filament power supply 20, and by drawing both of them to serve as two external lead wires out of the vacuum condition. CONSTITUTION:The external lead 24, serving as a negative electrode of filament cathode 9, and the external lead 25, being connected with the VSS electrode of IC chip 11, are drawn out of the vacuum in separate-terminal structure. And an aging power supply 30 is connected between the filament power supply 20 and the driver power supply 21. Thus, aging of the fluorescent character display tube becomes applying rated voltage on the driving circuit part (IC chips) 5 itself. Namely the anode and grid electrodes are fixed with voltage value of the driver power supply 21 and therefore withstand-voltage of IC chips at the output terminal need not be considered.

However, the CIG fluorescent display tube having such a structure has a major problem in the aging method used to improve the brightness of the phosphor. As is well known, the activation and outgassing of the phosphor is achieved by electronic bombardment stimulation from the filament, but in order to increase the luminous efficiency it is necessary to apply a somewhat high voltage, and usually the rated voltage is 2.
Apply ~5 times the anode voltage, and the grid voltage. By applying this voltage, the temperature of both electrodes is increased, and the released residual gas is absorbed by the getter, increasing the degree of vacuum.
Moreover, the luminous efficiency and stability of the phosphor can be improved.

In the figure, filament power supply 20 and driver power supply 2
An aging power supply 30 is connected between the terminals 10 and 10. That is, as a new aging method, a rated voltage is applied to the circuit section 5 from the driver power supply 21, totaling 1! The electrode is left in the ON state, and then the aging power supply 30 is applied to apply a negative voltage to the bias of the filament to increase the relative potential between the filament and the anode/grid electrode, thereby aging the phosphor. That's what I'm trying to do. In this method, the rated voltage is applied to the drive circuit 5 (IC chip) itself, and all its outputs are turned on. Therefore, there is no need to consider the withstand voltage of the IC chip at the output end. On the other hand, by moving the potential of the filament in the negative direction using the aging power supply 30 provided separately, the potential of the filament and the potential between the anode and the grid electrode are relatively increased, and the voltage between the normal filament and the anode and the grid electrode is increased. Aging is performed by applying a voltage 2 to 5 times higher. As a result of reliability evaluation tests, the CIG fluorescent display tube of the present invention, in which the phosphor portion was aged (increased brightness and gas discharged) at such a high voltage, exhibited excellent characteristics with a small rate of brightness decline. This was confirmed.
