Abstract
A method of controlling electrodes of a pixel in a plasma display panel. The method includes applying a first voltage to a first electrode of the pixel during a sustain discharge involving the first electrode, and applying a second voltage to a second electrode of the pixel. The first voltage and the second voltage have a relationship that encourages the sustain discharge to extend to the second electrode.
