Abstract
A PDP driving circuit is comprised of a power recovery unit for recovering an electric power from a capacitive load by resonance operation with PDP which is the capacitive load Cp, and reusing the recovered power. The power recovery unit includes a recovery inductor for resonating with the capacitive load, a recovery switch element for connecting the recovery capacitor to the capacitive load and recovery inductor, and forming a channel for passing resonance current, a counterflow preventive diode for blocking flow of current in the recovery switch element in reverse polarity direction, and a protective diode for forming a closed current channel including the recovery inductor and recovery switch element when the counterflow preventive diode is changed from ON state to OFF state.
