Abstract
A plasma display panel and driving method thereof. Waveforms for performing a reset operation, an address operation, and a sustain operation are applied to a scan electrode while a sustain electrode is biased with a predetermined voltage, and it is controlled such that the absolute value of a positive voltage of sustain voltage pulses applied to the scan electrode in the sustain period may be greater than the absolute value of a negative voltage thereof. Further, an address electrode is floated when a waveform having a sustain discharge function is applied to the scan electrode, and the voltage at the address electrode is controlled to be increased and decreased according to the voltage at the scan electrode.
