Abstract
Disclosed are a PDP and a driving method thereof. A falling ramp, having the same or greater gradient as that of a falling ramp pulse applied to a Y electrode, is applied to an X electrode in part of a Y ramp falling period during which a falling ramp pulse is applied to the Y electrode. Therefore, high-rate addressing may be allowed and discharge efficiency may be improved since the maximum wall voltage may be formed within a range in which no erroneous discharge may be generated to the X and Y electrodes in a reset period.
