What is a Plasma 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
b[ue_ Gas in a plasma
state
is used to
react
with
phosphors
in each
sub-
pixe[
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
subopixel
is individually
controlled
by advanced
electronics
to
produce
over
1_6million
different
col-
ors.
This
means
that
you get
perfect
images
that
are
easily
viewable
in a display
that
is fewer
than
five
inches
thick.
1160 ° _ 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.
Multimedia
Connect
your
ptasma
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
Plasma
TV
Manufacturing
Process:
a few
mlnute
co[aped
dots
may
be present
on the
Plasma
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
celt
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.
