Study Notes
Monitor Technologies
- LCD monitors have a main advantage over CRT monitors in terms of their thinner, lighter, and more energy-efficient design.
Display Resolution
- Resolution refers to the number of pixels (picture elements) that a display device can show, horizontally and vertically.
Connection Types
- LCD monitors use a digital video interface (DVI) connection for the video adapter or graphics card.
Color Depth
- Color depth refers to the number of bits used to represent the color of each pixel, with higher depths allowing for more colors and shades.
CRT Monitor Functionality
- A CRT monitor creates a visible image by using an electron beam to strike millions of tiny red, green, and blue phosphor dots on the screen.
Display Connections
- LCD monitors use a digital video interface (DVI) connection for the video adapter or graphics card.
Color Depth Applications
- Monitors with a 32-bit depth are used in digital video, animation, and video games to achieve certain special effects and realistic color representations.
CRT Monitor Components
- A CRT monitor contains millions of tiny red, green, and blue phosphor dots that glow when struck by an electron beam, creating a visible image.
Display Measurements
- Aspect ratio is a measure of the display size, defined as the width of the screen to its height.
Display Outputs
