Method and apparatus for driving plasma display panel

摘要

A method and apparatus of driving a plasma display panel for preventing damage of a driving integrated circuit caused by an abnormal discharge generated from a non-display area is disclosed. In the apparatus, a plurality of drivers drive driving electrodes of an active area and dummy electrodes of a non-display area. A current limiter is positioned between any at least one of the dummy electrodes and the drivers to limit currents flowing in the dummy electrodes.
