Abstract
Disclosed is a method for the row-by-row control of the pixels of a plasma panel. This method is applicable in the case where a pixel is defined at the intersection of a column electrode with a pair of sustaining electrodes. The method disclosed makes it possible to obtain, notably, a reduced cycle time with a small number of voltage levels applied to the different electrodes. To this effect, according to one characteristic of the invention, the method consists in the erasure of the pixels of a row solely by erasing discharges generated between the electrodes of the corresponding electrode pair.
