Abstract: A plasma display including a first electrode and a second electrode formed in parallel is disclosed. The plasma display gradually decreases a voltage at the second electrode from a second voltage to a third voltage while a first voltage is applied to the first electrode during a reset period. The plasma display changes the first voltage according to a change in the discharge firing voltage between the first electrode and the second electrode. The change in the discharge firing voltage may be determined in accordance with an accumulated driving time or a discharge time during the reset period.
