Plasma display device and a driving method thereof

摘要

A plasma display device and a driving method thereof are provided. A sustain pulse is applied to a scan electrode while biasing a sustain electrode at a predetermined voltage during a sustain period. A first sustain pulse having a first magnitude of voltage is applied at lease once to the scan electrode during a first part of the sustain period, and a second sustain pulse and a third sustain pulse are alternately applied to the scan electrode during a second part of the sustain period. The second sustain pulse has a voltage of a second magnitude that is smaller than the first magnitude, and the third sustain pulse has a voltage of a third magnitude that is larger than the second magnitude.
