INTRODUCTION
What is a Plas a TV?
Using plasma is the best way to achieve flat panel
displays with excellent image quality and large screen
sizes that are easily viewable. The Plasma TV can be
thought of as a descendant of the neon lamp and or
a series of fluorescent lamps.
How does it work?
Plasma TV is an array of cells, known as pixels, which
are comprised of three sub-pixels, corresponding
to the colors red, green, and blue. Gas in a plasma
state is used to react with phosphors in each sub-
pixel to produce colored light (red, green, or blue).
These phosphors are the same types used in
Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) devices such as televisions
and common computer monitors.
Plasma TV offers a rich, dynamic display because
each sub-pixel is individually controlled by advanced
electronics to produce over 16 million different col-
ors. This means that you get perfect images that are
easily viewable in a display that is fewer than five
inches thick.
160° - Wide angle range of vision
Your flat panel plasma screen offers an exceptionally
broad viewing angle of over 160 degrees. This means
that the display is clear and visible to viewers any-
where in the room.
Wide Screen
The wide screen offers a theater-like experience in
your own home.
Multi edia
Connect your plasma display to a PC and use it for
conferencing, games, and Internet browsing. The
Picture-in-Picture feature allows you to view your PC
and video images simultaneously.
Versatile
The light weight and thin size makes it easy to install
your plasma display in a variety of locations where
conventional TVs do not fit.
The Plas a TV Manufacturing Process: a few
inute colored dots ay be present on the
Plas a TV screen
The Plasma TV is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 million
cells. A few cell defects will normally occur in the
Plasma TV manufacturing process. Several tiny,
minute colored dots visible on the screen should be
acceptable. This also occurs in other Plasma TV
manufacturers' products. The tiny dots appearing
does not mean that this Plasma TV is defective. Thus
a few cell defects are not sufficient cause for the
Plasma TV to be exchanged or returned. Our pro-
duction technology minimizes these cell defects dur-
ing the manufacture and operation of this product.
