Introduction
What is aPlasma Display Panel (PDP)?
Aplasma display panel is the latest display technology and the best way to achieve flat panel displays with excellent image quality
and large screen sizes that are easily viewable, The PDP can be thought of as a descen_nt of the neon lamp and it can be also
be viewed as a series of fluorescent lamps.
How does it work?
PDP is an array of sells, known as pixels, which are comprised of 3sub pixels, corresponding to the cotors red, green, and biue_
Gas in a plasma state is used to react with phosphors in each sub-pixet 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 monitors
You get the rich_ dynamic colors that you expect, Each sub-pixet is individuat_y controlled by advanced erect:tonics to produce over
16 million different colors, Afi of these mean that you get #effect images that are easily viewable in a dispiay that is tess than 5
inches thick,
160 _ - Wide angle range of vision
Your flat paneEplasma screen offers an exceptionally broad viewing angme_-over 160 degrees. This means that the dis#fay is
clear and visibte to viewers anywhere in the room who can see the screen.
Wide Screen
The screen of the Plasma Display is so wide that your viewing experience is as ff you are in a theater.
Multimedia
Connect your piasma display to a PC and you can use it for conferencing, games, and tntemet browsing_
Versatile
The iight weight and thin size makes it easy to install your plasma display in a vanety of locations where conventional TVs will not
fit,
The PDP Manufacturing ProceSS: a few minute colored dots may be print on the PDP Screen
The PDP (Plasma Display Panel), which is the display device of this product, is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 mi[Uion ceils. A few ce_
defects wil_ normally occur in the PDP manufacturing process. _veral tiny, minute colored dots visible on the screen shoufd be
acceptable. This _so occurs in other PDP manufacturers' produds. The tiny dots appearing does not mean that this PDP is defec -
_ve. Thus a few cell defects are not sufficient cause for the PDP to be exchanged or retemed. Our production technology mini-
mizes these se_l defects during the manufacture and operation of this product.
