What is a Plasma Display Panel (PDP)?
A plasma display pane_is the _atestdisplay technology and the best way to achieve flat panel displays with excellent image quality
and large screen sizes that are easily viewabie, Re PDP c_ be thought of as a descend_t of the neon lamp and it can be also
be viewed as a series of fluorescent _amps.
How does it work?
POP is an array of c_tls, known as pixe_s, which are comprised of 3sub pi×els, cerres_nding to the colors ted, green, and blue.
Gas in a plasma state is used to react with phosphors in each sub-pixe_ to produce colored light(red, green, or blue). These phos-
phors are the same types used in Cathode Ray Tube (CRT} devices such as televisions and common computer rr_nitors.
You get the rich, dynamic cetors that you expect. Each sub_pi×e{ is individually controlled by advanced e_ectronics to produce over
16 million different colors. All dthis means that you get perfect images that are easily viewable in a display that is less than 5
inches thick.
160 ° - Wide angle range of vision
"four flat panel plasma screen offers _ exceptionally broad viewing angle =oover 160 degrees. This means that the display is
clear and visible to viewers anywhere in the room who can see the screen.
Wide Screen
The screen of the Plasma Dispiay is so wide that your viewingexperience is as if you are in a theater,
Multimedia
Connect your plasn-_ display to a PC and you can use it for conferencing, games, and tnternet browsing, The Picture-imPicture
feature allows you to view your PC and video images simultaneously,
Versatile
The light weight and thin size _kes it easy to in_t your pJasma display in a vadety of locationswhere conventional TVs wiI] not
fit.
The PDP Manufacturing Pr_ess: afew minute colored dots may be present on the PDP screen
The PDP (Plasma Display Panel)_ which is the display device ef this product is compo_d of 0,9 to 22 million cet[s, A few cell
defects will normally occur in the PDP manufacturing process. _veral tiny, minute colored dots visible on the screen should be
acceptable. This also occurs in other PDP manufacturers' products_ The tiny dots appearing does not mean that this PDP is deles=
