Zusammenfassung:A plasma display apparatus and a method of driving the plasma display apparatus are provided. According to an embodiment, the plasma display apparatus is driven by dividing a sub-field into at least an address period and a sustain period. The apparatus includes a timing controlling unit to vary a length of the sustain period according to a data pattern associated with at least one address electrode, wherein a length of the sustain period is varied according to an amount of drop in a data voltage during the address period. Hence a recovery period of a data pulse voltage is sufficiently provided in the sustain period to provide a stable discharge characteristic at each of the subfields without an erroneus discharge.
