A method of driving a plasma display panel and an apparatus thereof wherein a switching frequency of a data drive IC is reduced to decrease power consumption required for an addressing operation. In the method and apparatus, a plurality of write sub-fields at which a writing data for turning on a cell is subject to a binary coding and a plurality of erase sub-fields for expressing a gray scale value while turning off a desired cell with respect to the cells having been turned on the previous sub-fields including said write sub-fields are established. An erase data having a logic value for turning off the cells is mapped on erase sub-fields, the number of which is smaller than that of said erase sub-fields. A data having a second logic value different from a logical value of said erase data is mapped onto the remaining erase sub-fields other than the erase sub-field on which said erase data has been mapped.
