A method for driving a plasma display panel is provided to perform a stable address discharge by performing reset and erasure discharges without decreasing an image contrast. First and second electrodes are arranged to be parallel to each other. Third electrodes are arranged to cross the first and second electrodes. Discharge cells are defined by the electrodes. During a reset period, a wall charge distribution is equalized. During an address period, wall charges are formed in the discharge cell according to display data. During a sustain period, a sustain discharge is performed in the discharge cell. During the reset period, a first pulse is applied to the discharge cells. A voltage of the first pulse is varied as time elapses. A first discharge is performed between the first and second electrodes. A second pulse with a variable voltage is applied to the discharge cells. A second discharge is performed as an erasure discharge between the first and second electrodes. |
