Abstract
A three electrode plasma display panel (PDP) operates in concurrent sustain and addressing periods, rather than separating the sustain and addressing periods. Because of this concurrent operation, a PDP with a brighter display is produced. Crosstalk between sustain electrodes and the column electrodes of non-selected rows is mitigated by implementing column voltages such that there is no difference in crosstalk brightness levels in non-addressed pixels in the on state compared to non-addressed pixels in the off state. This is accomplished by choosing column voltages that are approximately symmetric about one-half of the sustain voltage.
