Method and apparatus for controlling initialization in plasma display panel

摘要

The present invention relates to a plasma display panel, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus for controlling initialization in plasma display panel. The method and apparatus for controlling initialization in plasma display panel according to the present invention time divides a frame period into a plurality of sub fields which are capable of abbreviating an initialization signal for initialization discharge or are capable of controlling the voltage of the initialization signal according to an average luminosity of input image, increasing the number of sub fields abbreviating the initialization signal or increasing the number of sub fields having low initialization signal voltage when the average luminosity of input image is lower than a average luminosity of previous input image.
