A new sustainer by using clamping RC components for AC plasma display panels
Jin-Woo Jung, D.-M. Lee · International Journal of Electronics · 2009
A new sustain driver with an energy recovery circuit for ac plasma display panels is proposed. The proposed driver uses not expensive clamping diodes but relatively cheap RC components in the Y and X main boards without degrading the performance. Consequently, it features fewer power devices and lower cost because of no clamping diodes. To demonstrate the validity of the proposed driver, various experimental results with a prototype 42-inch HD PDP module are presented.
