Abstract
In a plasma display panel, of a conventional type or of the planar type, a drive system consists of an array of paired, parallel drive lines, both of which may be on the same side of the enclosed gas atmosphere, as with the planar panel, or disposed on opposite sides of the enclosed gas atmosphere, and a second array, orthogonal to the first, of paired parallel write/erase trigger lines. The parallel drive lines are driven continuously with a sustain voltage drive signal. The trigger lines are selectively driven in conjunction with a selected pair of the paired drive lines to write or erase a selected display element.
