The PDS(Power Transfer Display Separation) method and implementation of SPIDER (Sustainer with Primary sided Integration of DC/DC converter and Energy Recovery circuit) for AC-PDP

This paper proposes a PDS(Power Transfer Display separation) method for AC-PDP. The proposed PDS method can transfer power and perform an energy recovery by a power conversion circuit operates differently depending on the time. As a result, it uses less of components than conventional PDP power supply and sustain circuit use. Moreover, the manufacturing process can be streamlined. Therefore, the proposed method is suitable for low cost PDP module. To confirm the operation, validity and features of the proposed PDS method, experimental results from a prototype for 42-in diagonal PDP are presented.
