Abstract:
1. A method of driving a plasma display panel which includes a plurality of first electrodes formed on a substrate, a plurality of second electrodes, a plurality of third electrodes formed in a direction intersecting the first electrodes and the second electrodes, and a dielectric layer covering the first electrodes and the second electrodes and having a protective layer on a surface of the dielectric layer, the method comprising: generating an address discharge between the first electrode and the third electrode to select a predetermined cell and sustain discharges between the first electrode and the second electrode to produce light for display; and controlling the plasma display panel such that the discharge intensity of a sustain discharge in which the second electrode serves as the anode is smaller than the discharge intensity of a sustain discharge in which the first electrode serves as the anode.
