PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a plasma display panel (PDP) drive unit by which reduction of a manufacturing cost and clamping ability are simultaneously satisfied. SOLUTION: The PDP drive unit includes a first voltage switching unit 255 to apply a first voltage and a grounding voltage to a sustain electrode line, a second voltage switching unit 257 to apply a second voltage higher than the first voltage to the sustain electrode line, a second diode D22 and a third diode D23 coupled by a connection node N21 such that the voltage of the connection node N1 is maintained between the first voltage and the grounding voltage, and a fourth switching element S24 coupled at one end with the cathode terminal of the second diode D22 and at the other end with the first voltage source. The anode terminal of the third diode D23 includes an over-voltage clamping preventing unit 252 coupled with a grounding terminal. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
