Abstract

A dynamic color temperature and color deviation calibration method is provided for eliminating problems associated with color temperature change and color deviation caused by an emissivity change of red, green and blue phosphor layers of a plasma display panel (PDP). The method comprises the steps of utilizing laws of color matching for calculating an emissivity change of a pixel of the PDP in response to a brightness change of one of red, green, and blue lights emitted by a corresponding one of red, green and blue discharge cells of the PDP through a numeric operation; dynamically adjusting brightness of one of the emitted red, green, and blue lights by increasing or decreasing strength of input video signal of each of the discharge cells; and eliminating a color temperature and a color deviation of the PDP due to an emissivity change. This can render an image having an optimum color purity and color temperature by eliminating adverse effects on PDP due to emissivity change.
