Abstract

Disclosed is a method for the control of the pixels of a plasma panel by selective addressing and semi-selective addressing. The disclosed method can be applied to cases where a pixel is defined at the intersection of a column electrode with a pair of sustaining electrodes. The disclosed method can be used, notably, to obtain a reduced picture cycle time. To this effect, according to one characteristic of the disclosed method, certain pixels are controlled simultaneously by semi-selective addressing while other pixels are controlled by selective addressing.
