Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0357485A1] The invention relates to a method for the line-per-line control of the pixels (PX1 to PX16) of a plasma panel (1) and applies in the case where a pixel (PX1 to PX16) is defined at the meeting point of a column electrode (X1 to X4) with a pair of service electrodes (P1 to P4). <??>The method of the invention permits, in particular, a reduced cycle time (T,T') with a small number of voltage levels applied to different electrodes (X1 to X4, Y1 to Y4, E1 to E4) to be obtained. For this purpose, according to a characteristic of the invention, the method consists in blanking out the pixels (PX1 to PX16) from one line (L1 to L4 completely) solely by blanking-out discharges generated between the electrodes (Y1 to Y4, E1 to E4) of the corresponding electrode pair (P1 to P4). <IMAGE>
