Abstract
The present invention relates to a plasma display panel, and more particularly, to an apparatus for driving a plasma display panel and method thereof. The method for driving the PDP according to the present invention includes the steps of: setting a sustain period where a specific voltage is maintained for a predetermined time period between first and second periods whose voltage varies, in the ramp waveform, and supplying the ramp waveform to electrodes. The apparatus for driving the PDP according to the present invention includes an initialization driving circuit for generating a ramp waveform including a sustain period where a specific voltage is maintained for a predetermined time period between first and second periods whose voltage varies and supplying the ramp waveform to electrodes.
