Improved 40-inch plasma display for wall-hanging HDTV receiver

摘要

A new 40-inch-diagonal color dc plasma display panel (cell pitch: 0.65 mm, 800×1340 cells) with both a resistor-in-cell structure and a phosphor screen on the side wall and bottom of the cell has been developed through the improvement on the large-area panel fabrication technologies. Stable HDTV pictures have been experimentally reproduced on a compact display using the new panel and pulse memory drive circuits. The peak white luminance is 150 cd/m2. The lifetime of the 40-inch panel is expected to be over 30,000 hours, judging from the results obtained using a medium-sized panel under the same conditions
