Abstract
To achieve high speed addressing for HDTV grade plasma display, optimization of the timing pulses of priming and addressing have been made. A space charge control pulses were applied to address electrodes to prevent the sustaining voltage hike for high frequency sustaining. As a result, addressing of address pulse width 1 μs has been realized and 10V voltage reduction in sustain pulse of which width 1.8 μs has been achieved. The image of 256×160 pixels with 8 bit gray scale could be displayed. luminance of 560 cd/m^2 and background luminance of 0.58 cd/m^2 have been achieved by one priming discharge in one TV field.
