Abstract:
1. A plasma display device comprising: a display electrode; a first switch that includes a first terminal coupled to a node, a second terminal coupled to a power source supplying a first voltage, and a control terminal, the node being coupled to the display electrode; a first gate driver that includes an output terminal, the first gate driver configured to output a first control signal having a first level to the control terminal of the first switch through the output terminal of the first gate driver, the first switch configured to gradually increase a voltage of the display electrode from a second voltage to a third voltage in response to the first control signal having the first level; a second gate driver that includes an output terminal, the second gate driver configured to output a second control signal having the first level to the control terminal of the first switch through output terminal of the second gate driver, the first switch configured to transmit the first voltage from the power source to the display electrode in response to the second control signal having the first level; and a switch turn-off unit configured to turn off the first switch in response to the first control signal having a second level and the second control signal having the second level, the second level being different from the first level.
