In a heat-radiating structure and a plasma display device including the
same, an uneven shape is formed in a bed of a chassis base, and a heat
sink is installed on a cover plate such that heat is radiated toward both
sides of the cover plate. The heat-radiating structure includes: a signal
transmission unit to which an integrated circuit is attached; a chassis
having a bed for supporting the signal transmission unit formed therein;
and a cover plate which covers the signal transmission unit and having a
heat sink formed therein. The plasma display device includes: a plasma
display panel for realizing an image by exciting a phosphor using a gas
discharge; a signal processing unit for converting image data inputted
from an external source into a driving signal for driving the plasma
display panel; a signal transmission unit which transmits the driving
signal to the plasma display panel, and to which the above-described
integrated circuit is driven is attached; a chassis which supports the
plasma display panel and having the above-described bed formed therein;
and a cover plate as described above.
