Abstract
A Plasma Display Panel (PDP) apparatus, system and method, includes a circuit framework structure, chassis structure, panel structure, TCP structure, at least one thermal pad structure and an insulating structure. An integrated circuit is coupled to at least one thermal pad structure and the TCP structure, and the circuit framework structure is disposed external to the TCP structure. Therefore, efficient dissipation of heat that is generated during operation of the PDP structures may be obtained. In addition, the amount of accumulated heat in the PDP structure may be significantly reduced due the PDP apparatus and structure configuration, thereby increasing the PDP operational life.
