In general, a plasma display panel displays an image including a character or a graphic by emitting phosphors by ultraviolet rays of 147 nm generated when the He + Xe or Ne + Xe inert mixed gas is discharged.
1 is a perspective view showing a structure of a general plasma display panel. As shown in FIG. 1, the Y electrode 12A and the Z electrode 12B formed on the upper substrate 10 of the plasma display panel and the X electrode 20 formed on the lower substrate 18 are provided. .
Each of the Y electrode 12A and the Z electrode 12B includes a transparent electrode and a bus electrode. The transparent electrode is formed of indium tin oxide (ITO). The bus electrode is formed of a metal for reducing resistance.
An upper dielectric layer 14 and a passivation layer 16 are stacked on the upper substrate 10 on which the Y electrode 12A and the Z electrode 12B are formed.
In the upper dielectric layer 14, wall charges generated during plasma discharge are accumulated. The protective layer 16 prevents damage to the upper dielectric layer 14 due to sputtering generated during plasma discharge, and increases emission efficiency of secondary electrons. The protective film 16 is usually formed of magnesium oxide (MgO).
Meanwhile, the lower dielectric layer 22 and the partition wall 24 are formed on the lower substrate 18 on which the X electrode 20 is formed. Phosphor layer 26 is applied to the surface of lower dielectric layer 22 and partition 24.
The X electrode 20 is formed in the direction crossing the Y electrode 12A and the Z electrode 12B. The partition wall 24 is formed in parallel with the X electrode 20 to prevent the ultraviolet rays and the visible light generated by the discharge from leaking to the adjacent discharge cells.
The phosphor layer 26 is excited by ultraviolet rays generated during plasma discharge to generate visible light of any one of red, green, and blue. An inert mixed gas such as He + Xe or Ne + Xe for discharging is injected into the discharge space of the discharge cells provided between the upper and lower substrates 10 and 18 and the partition wall 24.
2 is a conventional energy recovery circuit of a plasma display panel, and FIG. 3 is a waveform diagram of a sustain pulse in a conventional energy recovery circuit.
The conventional energy recovery circuit operates in largely four operation sequences.
In the first step, the first switch Q1 for the Y electrode and the fourth switch Q4 'for the Z electrode included in the energy recovery circuit 210 for the Y electrode are turned on, and the second to fourth switches Q2 for the Y electrode are turned on. Q3 and Q4 and the first to third switches Q1 ', Q2' and Q3 'for the Z electrode are turned off.
Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 3, the energy stored in the capacitor C S1 is supplied to the panel C P according to the resonance of the coil L1, and a sustain pulse voltage applied to the Y electrode (hereinafter, V PY ). This rises.
Next, in the second step, the second switch S2 for the Y electrode is turned on and the fourth switch Q4 'for the Z electrode is turned on, and the first switch Q1 for the Y electrode and the third for the Y electrode are next turned on. The switch Q3 and the fourth switch Q4 for the Y electrode are turned off. Accordingly, V PY maintains the sustain voltage V S.
Thereafter, in the third step, the third switch Q3 for the Y electrode is turned on and the fourth switch Q4 'for the Z electrode is turned on, and the first switch for the Y electrode, the third switch for the Y electrode, and The fourth switches Q1, Q3, and Q4 for the Y electrode are turned off.
As a result, energy stored in the capacitor C P is discharged to the capacitor C S in accordance with the resonance of the coil L1, and energy is recovered, and V PY drops.
Finally, in the fourth step, the fourth switch Q4 for the Y electrode is turned on and the fourth switch Q4 'for the Z electrode is turned on, and the first switch for the Y electrode, the second switch for the Y electrode, and the Y electrode are turned on. The third switches Q1, Q2, and Q3 for electrodes are turned off. As a result, V PY becomes the ground level.

Although there are Vs / 2 and -Vs / 2 power supplies on the Y electrode and Vs / 2 and -Vs / 2 power supplies on the Z electrode, there is only one recovery circuit on each electrode, rather than one energy recovery circuit installed on each power supply. Normal sustain operation is possible.
As such, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without changing the technical spirit or essential features thereof. Therefore, the above-described embodiments are to be understood as illustrative in all respects and not as restrictive.
