Abstract: An apparatus for driving a plasma display panel PDP that prevents a scan driving circuit from being damaged includes a plurality of address electrodes and scan electrodes and sustain electrodes arranged in a zig-zag pattern so as to make pairs with each other. The apparatus includes an address driving circuit, for applying an address signal for selecting a discharge cell to the address electrodes, and a sustain driving circuit and a scan driving circuit for alternately applying a sustain-discharge voltage to the scan electrodes and to the sustain electrodes, to thus sustain-discharge the selected discharge cell. The scan driving circuit includes a protecting circuit for uniformly sustaining an electric potential difference between both ends of the scan driving circuit so that the electric potential difference is no more than a rated voltage of the scan driving circuit.

Abstract: Disclosed is a PDP driving method having a misfiring erase period between reset and address periods. Large amounts of positive and negative charges are respectively formed on scan and sustain electrodes because of an unstable reset operation in the reset period. Because of the charges, discharging can occur between the scan and sustain electrodes in the sustain period even without addressing in the address period. In the misfiring erase period, a voltage is applied between the scan and sustain electrodes to generate discharging and respectively form negative and positive charges on the scan and sustain electrodes. An erase pulse is then applied to erase the negative and positive charges respectively formed on the scan and sustain electrodes.

Abstract: A PDP driving circuit for a stable operation of a ramp pulse. A capacitor having a temperature characteristic opposite to a temperature characteristic of a part coupled to a switch that operates as a constant current source for generation of a ramp pulse is arranged in the driving circuit for generating a ramp pulse. The ramp pulse linearly increases or decreases a panel voltage of the PDP with respect to time. Parts having opposite temperature characteristics are coupled in parallel to control variation of a gradient of the ramp pulse so that values of the parts may not be varied depending on the temperature changes. Thus, stable operation of the ramp pulse is obtained.
