Plasma tv panels are an array of tiny cells, known as pixels, which contain phosphors corresponding to the colors red, green and blue. Sandwiched against these cells is a thin layer of gas in a plasma state. Electrical impulses enter the gas, which emits bursts of ultraviolet light at precise locations and intervals. The phosphor cells absorb these signals and then re-radiate the energy as visible light, producing the vivid images that appear on screen.

TYPES OF PLASMA TV

There are primarily two types of plasma tv displays: multimedia displays for high-end image reproduction, and public flat panel displays for large-screen presentation of dynamic messages and content.

Multimedia Features:

• razor-sharp image quality and color accuracy
  
  
• high-resolution output; millions and millions of pixels for image clarity
  
  
• multiple input sources, such as computer, VCR, DVD, camcorder, HDTV and professional component video; some include digital DVI connectors
  
  
• virtually silent operation, with some flat panel displays as low as 20 decibels, about half the average noise output of a projector
  
  
• built-in stereo audio, or audio output
  
  
• high-style, low profile design make these flat panel displays easy to integrate into any room

Public Flat Panel Display Features:

• dynamic as opposed to static messages
  
  
• anti-glare screen coating for clear viewing in harsh lighting conditions
  
  
• wide viewing angle; wider than conventional front projection and even rear projection systems, with a reliable viewing angle of 160 degrees
  
  
• affordability
  
  
• larger image than CRT display monitors; newer NEC's public flat panel display PlasmaSync television displays include a 2x2 matrix capability that allows configuration of a 84" diagonal image with no external equipment
  
  
• self-running with a programmable timer and virtually maintenance-free; a plasma tv display running 8 hours a day can last for 10 years -- that's 30,000 hours -- before reaching the half-life of their brightness
