Abstract
In an image having a plurality of cathode stripes, individual cathodes may be addressed using a system having a first resistor at one end of each of the cathodes and a second resistor at the other end of each of the cathode stripes. The first resistors are bussed so that X number of adjacent first resistors are connected in common to form Y groups; wherein X times Y equals the total number of cathode stripes. A plurality of first switches are connected to the groups of first resistors to selectively apply one of two voltage levels to each group. The second resistors are connected into X groups each having Y resistors. A plurality of second switches selectively switch one of two voltage levels to each group of second resistors.
