Abstract

This paper presents the results of the power system analysis and power loss breakdown peformed on a 40-inch ac plasma display panel (PDP) TV set. The architecture and function of power system is reviewed. The power flow inside the PDP TV set is presented, and the distribution of the power loss is analyzed. It was found that the sustain driver circuit and power factor correction (PFC) circuit are the two major sources of the power loss. The results of this paper can be used as a preliminary guideline to improve the architecture and efficiency of power systems for ac PDP application systems.
