P-85: A New Reset Method for High Contrast Ratio and Reduction of the Reset Period of ACPDPs

Abstract

A new reset method for high contrast ratio and reduction of the reset time is presented. In this new reset method, except the first subfield, a new reset pulse with only ramp-up period is adopted. In this reset method, from the third subfield, the background luminance generated during the reset period is theoretically zero until the first subfield of the following frame. Employing the new reset method, the dark room contrast ratio improved to 3084.7:1 from 189.1:1 of the conventional reset method. The new reset method reduced the required time for reset per subfield to 160us except the first subfield.
