The voltage controlled ramp(VCR) waveform has recently been introduced in the reset period prior to addressing for plasma display. However, this method results in the oscillation of the gap voltage when the ramp rate is increased so as to reduce reset period. In this paper a current controlled ramp(CCR) waveform method in the reset period is suggested. This method can suppress the oscillation of gap voltage under the condition of shorter ramp time. Moreover, the reset time can be reduced by about 30 % compared with the VCR method under the same background luminance.

The voltage controlled ramp(VCR) waveform has recently been introduced in the reset period prior to addressing for plasma display. However, this method shows the oscillation of gap voltage when the ramp rate is increased in order to reduce reset period. In this paper a current controlled ramp(CCR) waveform method is suggested. This method can suppress the oscillation of gap voltge under the condition of shorter ramp time. Moreover, the reset time can be reduced about 30% compared with VCR method under the same background luminance.

The voltage controlled ramp waveform(VCR) has recently been used in the reset period prior to addressing for plasma display. However, in this paper, the current controlled ramp waveform(CCR) which may prevent the oscillation of gap voltage cause current growth and decrease the background luminance has been suggested. As a result, in case of CCR method, the contrast ratio was about 14% increased compared with VCR method, whereas the addressing and sustainin discharge characteristics of CCR method were same with those of VCR method.
