  2. Extended Display Identification Data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_display...

    Some VGA connectors in personal computers provided a basic form of identification by connecting one, two or three pins to ground, but this coding was not standardized. This problem is solved by EDID and DDC, as it enables the display to send information to the graphics card it is connected to.

  3. Video display controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_display_controller

    Block diagram of a NEC μPD7220 graphics display controller. A video display controller (VDC), also called a display engine or display interface, is an integrated circuit which is the main component in a video-signal generator, a device responsible for the production of a TV video signal in a computing or game system.

  4. DMS-59 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMS-59

    DMS-59 (Dual Monitor Solution, 59 pins) is generally used for computer video cards. It provides two Digital Visual Interface (DVI) or Video Graphics Array (VGA) outputs in a single connector. A Y-style breakout cable is needed for the transition from the DMS-59 output (digital + analogue) to DVI (digital) or VGA (analogue), and different types ...

    However, during the transition, the change was not backwards-compatible and video cards using the old scheme could have problems if a DDC-capable monitor was connected. [5] [6] The DDC signal can be sent to or from a video graphics array (VGA) monitor with the I 2 C protocol using the master's serial clock and serial data pins.

  6. Video Graphics Array - Wikipedia

    VGA section on the motherboard in IBM PS/55. The color palette random access memory (RAM) and its corresponding digital-to-analog converter (DAC) were integrated into one chip (the RAMDAC) and the cathode-ray tube controller was integrated into a main VGA chip, which eliminated several other chips in previous graphics adapters, so VGA only additionally required external video RAM and timing ...

  7. Planar (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planar_(computer_graphics)

    In computer graphics, planar is the method of arranging pixel data into several bitplanes of RAM.Each bit in a bitplane is related to one pixel on the screen. Unlike packed, high color, or true color graphics, the whole dataset for an individual pixel is not in one specific location in RAM, but spread across the bitplanes that make up the display.

  8. Enhanced Graphics Adapter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Graphics_Adapter

    The later VGA standard built on this by mapping each of the 64 colors in from a larger, customizable, palette of 256. Standard EGA monitors do not support use of the extended color palette in 200-line modes, because the monitor cannot distinguish between being connected to a CGA card or being connected to an EGA card outputting a 200-line mode.

    The picture shows among other things a nice red flowing collar-like structure just below the anther. However, an intact thale cress stamen does not have such collar, this is a fixation artifact: the stamen has been cut below the picture frame, and epidermis (upper layer of cells) of stamen stalk has peeled off, forming a non-characteristic ...
