Abstract
The present invention relates to a plasma display apparatus and driving method thereof, and more particularly, to a plasma display apparatus implementing gray levels and driving method thereof. The plasma display apparatus according to the present invention comprises a plasma display panel in which a plurality of scan electrodes and a plurality of sustain electrodes are formed on a substrate, drivers for driving the plurality of the scan electrodes and the sustain electrodes, and a sustain pulse controller for controlling the drivers to set a total number of sustain pulses applied to the scan electrodes and the sustain electrodes to be at least one or more of a plurality of sub-fields in which a sub-field having an odd number constitutes one frame. The present invention can implement a finer gray level. Accordingly, half-tone noise when implementing a low gray level can be reduced and the picture quality can be improved.
