A PDP driving and power recovery method. X and Y electrode voltages of a
panel capacitor are maintained to be V2 and V1 volts, respectively. The Y
electrode voltage is converted into V2 to store energy in the inductor,
the energy stored therein is used to convert the X electrode voltage into
V1, and the voltages at the X and the Y electrodes are maintained to be V1
and V2, respectively. The voltage at the X electrode is converted into V2
to store energy in the inductor, and the energy stored therein is used to
convert the voltage at the Y electrode into V1.
