Fluoreszenzanzeigevorrichtung und Verfahren zum Antreiben derselben

A fluorescent display device capable of setting anode patterns as desired without being restricted by a configuration of grids. A plurality of grids formed into the same rectangular shape are juxtaposed to each other at micro intervals. First single anode patterns each are arranged so as to face each of grid groups each consisting of four to six single grids adjacent to each other. Second single anode patterns each are arranged so as to face each one single grids. The second single anode patterns are driven for every grid and then the grid groups facing the first single anode patterns are selected. Concurrently, the anode patterns facing the grid groups are fed with a display signal. Thus, the grid is commonly applied to any fluorescent display device and accommodates to any anode pattern.
