  2. Display Data Channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_Data_Channel

    Display Data Channel (DDC) is a collection of protocols for digital communication between a computer display and a graphics adapter that enable the display to communicate its supported display modes to the adapter and that enable the computer host to adjust monitor parameters, such as brightness and contrast.

  3. Native resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Native_resolution

    While CRT monitors can usually display images at various resolutions, an LCD monitor has to rely on interpolation (scaling of the image), which causes a loss of image quality. An LCD has to scale up a smaller image to fit into the area of the native resolution.

  4. Composite monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_monitor

    A critical factor in the quality of this display is the type of encoding used in the TV camera to combine the signal together and the decoding used in the monitor to separate the signals back to RGB for display. Composite monitors can be very high quality, with professional broadcast reference displays costing US$10k-$15k as of 2000.

    The first commercial displays capable of this resolution include an 82-inch LCD TV revealed by Samsung in early 2008, [44] the Sony SRM-L560, a 56-inch LCD reference monitor announced in October 2009, [45] an 84-inch display demonstrated by LG in mid-2010, [46] and a 27.84-inch 158 PPI 4K IPS monitor for medical purposes launched by Innolux in ...

  7. Intermittent fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermittent_fault

    Intermittent failures can be a cause of no-fault-found (NFF) occurrences in electronic products and systems. NFF implies that a failure (fault) occurred or was reported to have occurred during a product’s use. The product was analyzed or tested to confirm the failure, but “a failure or fault” could be not found.

  8. Device driver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Device_driver

    If such drivers malfunction, they do not cause system instability. The Kernel-Mode Driver Framework (KMDF) model continues to allow development of kernel-mode device drivers but attempts to provide standard implementations of functions that are known to cause problems, including cancellation of I/O operations, power management, and plug-and ...

  9. Test card - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_card

    Test cards typically contain a set of patterns to enable television cameras and receivers to be adjusted to show the picture correctly (see SMPTE color bars).Most modern test cards include a set of calibrated color bars which will produce a characteristic pattern of "dot landings" on a vectorscope, allowing chroma and tint to be precisely adjusted between generations of videotape or network feeds.
