Plasma display apparatus and driving method therof

By it relates to a plasma display device and a driving method of scanning the scan electrodes (Y) by at least one scan type among a plurality of scan type of the present invention, the scanning of the scan electrode (Y) of one of the plurality of scan types, excessive displacement prevent the current occurs, and thus there is an effect of preventing the electrical damage of the data driver integrated circuit. One such invention is a plurality of scan electrodes and a plurality of data electrodes and scanning the plurality of scan electrodes in the address period (Scanning) a plurality of scanning-type sequence is different for crossing the plurality of scan electrodes (Scan Type) of the first end of the scanning of the first scanning electrode among the scanning, and the first scan electrode and second scan electrode the plurality of scan the scan order is a row of electrodes at the time of scanning the scanning electrodes in the address period, the scan electrode by the scan-type first in response to the scan driver, and a scan type for later than the start of the scanning of the second scan electrode is later than the scanning order of the scan electrodes preferably includes a data driver for supplying a data pulse to the data electrode.
