Close-up of an LCD, showing a dead green subpixel as a black rectangle. A defective pixel or a dead pixel is a pixel on a liquid crystal display (LCD) that is not functioning properly. The ISO standard ISO 13406-2 distinguishes between three different types of defective pixels, [1] while hardware companies tend to have further distinguishing ...
Three distinct types of defective pixels are described: Type 1 = a hot pixel (always on, being colour white) Type 2 = a dead pixel (always off, meaning black) Type 3 = a stuck pixel (one or more sub-pixels (red, blue or green) are always on or always off) The table below shows the maximum number of allowed defects (per type) per 1 million pixels.
Burn-in on a monitor, when severe as in this "please wait" message, is visible even when the monitor is switched off. Screen burn-in, image burn-in, ghost image, or shadow image, is a permanent discoloration of areas on an electronic visual display such as a cathode-ray tube (CRT) in an older computer monitor or television set.
Some LCD panels have defective transistors, causing permanently lit or unlit pixels which are commonly referred to as stuck pixels or dead pixels respectively. Unlike integrated circuits (ICs), LCD panels with a few defective transistors are usually still usable. Manufacturers' policies for the acceptable number of defective pixels vary greatly.
The cause of LCD image retention is different from phosphor aging as in CRTs, but the visual phenomenon is the same: uneven use of display pixels. Slight LCD image retention can be recovered. When severe image retention occurs, the liquid crystal molecules have been polarized and cannot rotate in the electric field, so they cannot be recovered.
Fixed pixel displays are display technologies such as LCD and plasma that use an unfluctuating matrix of pixels with a set number of pixels in each row and column. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] With such displays, adjusting ( scaling ) to different aspect ratios because of different input signals requires complex processing.
A typical video tearing artifact (simulated image) Screen tearing [1] is a visual artifact in video display where a display device shows information from multiple frames in a single screen draw.
LCD crosstalk is a visual defect in an LCD screen which occurs because of interference between adjacent pixels.. Owing to the way rows and columns in the display are addressed, and charge is pushed around, the data on one part of the display has the potential to influence what is displayed elsewhere. [1]
