Patent ID: 8223090

Claim:
A plasma display device comprising: a plasma display panel including at least one pair of first and second display electrodes disposed on a substrate; a dielectric layer covering the at least one pair of first and second display electrodes; and an MgO protective layer covering the dielectric layer; a driver that drives the plasma display panel; and a controller that controls the driver so that a sustain pulse width of a sustain period is 1 to 3.5 μs, wherein a statistical delay time depending on temperature is represented by the following Formula 1: y=A×e −kx Formula 1 wherein k is a constant in a range of less than or equal to 2000 and a unit of the k is an absolute temperature (K), x is an reciprocal of the temperature (1/K), y is an reciprocal of a statistical delay time (Ts) (1/ns), and A is a constant ranging from 1×10 −6 to 1×10 6 .
