PLASMA DISPLAY EQUIPMENT AND METHOD OF DRIVING PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL

摘要

Plasma display equipment comprising a plasma display panel, a scan electrode driving circuit which generates a descending gradient waveform voltage which gently descends in an initialization period and also generates a first gradient waveform voltage which gently ascends in an initialization period of at least one sub-field (first SF) of one field, and a panel temperature detector circuit. In this plasma display equipment, the lowest voltage in the descending gradient waveform voltage is switched over to a first voltage (Vi4L), a second voltage (Vi4M) whose voltage value is higher than that of the fist voltage (Vi4L), or a third voltage (Vi4H) whose voltage value is higher than that of the second voltage (Vi4M) depending on the temperature detected by the panel temperature detector circuit.
