Chapter 7 Glossary
Clock
The analog signal input monitor needs to reproduce a clock of the same frequency as the dot clock of the graphics system in use, when the analog signal is converted to a digital signal for image display. This is called clock adjustment. If the clock pulse is not set correctly, some vertical bars appear on the screen.
DDC/CI (Display Data Channel/Command Interface)
VESA provides the standardization for the interactive communication of the setting information, etc. between a PC and the monitor.
DVI (Digital Visual Interface)
DVI is a digital interface standard. DVI allows direct transmission of the PC's digital data without loss.
This adopts the TMDS transmission system and DVI connectors. There are two types of DVI connectors. One is a DVI-D connector for digital signal input only. The other is a DVI-I connector for both digital and analog signal inputs.
DVI DMPM (DVI Digital Monitor Power Management)
DVI DMPM is a digital interface power saving function. The “Monitor ON (operating mode)” and “Active Off (power saving mode)” are indispensable for DVI DMPM as the monitor’s power mode.
Gain
This is used to adjust each color parameter for red, green and blue. An LCD monitor displays the color by the light passing through the panel color filter. Red, green and blue are the three primary colors. All the colors on the screen are displayed by combining these three colors. The color tone can be changed by adjusting the light intensity (volume) passing through each color's filter.
Gamma
Generally, the monitor brightness varies nonlinearly with the input signal level, which is called "Gamma Characteristic". A small gamma value produces a low-contrast image, while a large gamma value produces a highcontrast image.
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)
Digital signal coding system developed to copy-protect the digital contents, such as video, music, etc.
This helps to transmit the digital contents safely by coding the digital contents sent via the DVI or HDMI connector on the output side and decoding them on the input side.
Any digital contents cannot be reproduced if both of the equipments on the output and input sides are not applicable to HDCP system.
Phase
Phase means the sampling timing to convert the analog input signal to a digital signal. Phase adjustment is made to adjust the timing. It is recommended that phase adjustment be made after the clock is adjusted correctly.
Range Adjustment
Range adjustment controls the signal output levels to display every color gradation. It is recommended that range adjustment be made before color adjustment.
Resolution
The LCD panel consists of numerous pixels of specified size, which are illuminated to form images. This monitor consists of horizontal 1024 pixels and 768 vertical pixels. At a resolution of 1024 × 768 , all pixels are illuminated as a full screen (1:1).
sRGB (Standard RGB)
International standard for color reproduction and color space among peripheral devices (such as monitors, printers, digital cameras, scanners). As a form of simple color matching for the Internet, colors can be displayed using tones close to those of the transmission and reception devices.
Temperature
Color temperature is a method to measure the white color tone, generally indicated in degrees Kelvin. The screen becomes reddish at a low temperature, and bluish at a high temperature, like the flame temperature.
5000 K: Slightly reddish white
6500 K: White referred to as daylight-balanced color
9300 K: Slightly bluish white
TMDS (Transition Minimized Differential Signaling)
A signal transmission system for digital interface.
VESA DPM (Video Electronics Standards Association - Display Power Management)
VESA specifications achieve increased energy efficiency for computer monitors. This involves standardization of signals sent from the computer (graphics board).
DPM defines the status of signals transmitted between the computer and monitor.
