Abstract
A plasma display apparatus and a driving method thereof are provided. A plasma display apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a plasma display panel comprising an electrode and an energy recovery/supply unit comprising a variable inductor located over a supply path of a pulse applied to the electrode. A driving method of a plasma display apparatus according to still another embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of varying an inductance of an inductor over charging/discharging paths according to a screen pattern or load of a plasma display panel and making constant a rising/falling slope of the sustain pulse.
