Abstract
A plasma display device that enables a stable address operation even in a high-speed drive so as to display an image of high definition and high quality. A PDP having discharge cells each provided with a scanning electrode and a sustaining electrode is driven by a method for displaying a frame of an image by repeating an address period, a discharge sustaining period, and a discharge suspend period. At least one initialization period that succeeds a discharge suspend period and in which the state of the wall charge in each discharge cell is initialized is provided. In the discharge suspend period, a voltage is applied between the scanning electrode and the sustaining electrode so that a wall voltage may be generated at which the polarity at the scanning electrode with respect to the sustaining electrode is the same as that of the initializing pulse applied to the scanning electrode in the initialization period.
