The plasma display panel driving method and plasma display device

In the subfield drive control of the PDP apparatus to improve the performance of the reset operation by the reset waveform using a step-wise rectangular wave to an object to obtain a stable display characteristics, the PDP driving method, driving subfields in the reset operation of the control, using a reset waveform including a rectangular wave raised stepwise up in multiple stages, depending on the number of sustain pulses of the previous reset operation, one or more stages of the second and subsequent stages in the rectangular wave one it is obtained so as to shift the timing of applying the parts waveform.
