DRIVING METHOD OF PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL, AND PLASMA DISPLAY DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a driving method of a plasma display panel, and a plasma display device that can display images of excellent quality while suppressing a rise in black luminance.

SOLUTION: The driving method of the plasma display device is characterized in that: at least sub-field group consisting of two or more successive sub-fields wherein write discharge is so controlled that sustain discharge is not caused in a sub-field following a sub-field wherein sustain discharge is not caused is included in one field period; whether an all-cell initializing operation and a selective initializing operation is performed in an initialization period of the starting sub-field of a sub-field group is determined depending upon an image to be displayed; and a time allotted to write discharge when the selective initializing operation is performed in the initialization period of the starting sub-field of the sub-field group is set longer than a time allotted to write discharge when the all-cell initializing operation is performed in the initialization period.
