The module which is used for the operation of PDP TV consists of three main PCB board, X-board, Y-board, SMPS. Numerous studies on identifying noise sources of PDP TV, and reducing the noise have so far been done through experiments. However, it has been difficult to identify the exact noise sources due to correlations between sources as they are located close to each other. For that reason, Multi-Dimensional Spectral Analysis, MDSA, one of Transfer Path Analysis method, is increasingly required since it enables a quantitative analysis of each input signal’s contribution to the out signal to be carried out by eliminating the correlations of input signals. In this study, Transfer Path Analysis using MDSA is implemented to determine the quantitative noise contribution of each board. And the possibility of noise reduction is confirmed through the experimental method that isolates the most contributing board by adding sound-absorbing materials to it.
