Glossary Glossary ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ A Active matrix This is a kind of liquid crystal display structure in which switching transistors are attached to each pixel to control the on/off voltage. It produces a brighter and sharper display with a broader viewing angle than a passive matrix display. Also refer to TFT (thin film transistor). Amorphous silicon (a-Si) A semiconductor material that is used to make the thin film transistors (TFTs) layer of an active matrix LCD.
Glossary The light source for a transmissive LCD. There are two techniques used in nowaday LCD designs. Most TFT LCD panels use CCFLs (cold cathode fluorescent light) and a diffuser panel directly behind the liquid crystal layer. New technology using Light Emitting Diodes (LED) are still under development. Brightness The dimension of color that is referred to an achromatic scale, ranging from black to white, also called lightness or luminous reflectance.
Glossary Contrast ratio The ratio of luminance between the brightest white pattern and the darkest black pattern. RETURN TO TOP OF THE PAGE D D-SUB A VGA Analog input connector. Your monitor comes with a D-Sub cable. Digital Visual Interface (DVI) (available for selective models) The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) specification provides a high-speed digital connection for visual data types that is display technology independent.
Glossary An energy conservation program launched by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), promotes the manufacture and marketing of energy-efficient office automation equipment. Companies joining this program, must be willing to commit themselves to manufacture one or more products capable of going into a low -power state (< 30 W) either after a period of inactivity, or after a predetermined time selected by the user.
Glossary IPS (In Plane Switching) A technique of improving the viewing angle of an LCD where the liquid crystal molecules are switched in the plane of the LCD layer rather than vertical to it. L LCD (liquid crystal display) A display composed of liquid crystal suspended between two transparent sheets. The display is composed thousands of pixels which can be turned on or off with electrical stimulation. Thus, colorful images/texts can be generated.
Glossary P Pixel PICture Element; the smallest element on a computerized CRT or LCD image, and hence a display. Polarizer A light filter which only allows light waves of a certain rotation through. Polarized material with perpendicular filtering is used in LCDs to enclose the liquid crystal. The liquid crystal is then used as the medium which twists the light waves 90° in order to allow the light to pass through or not. R Refresh rate The number of times per second the screen is refreshed or redrawn.
Glossary SmartImage provides presets that optimize display for different types of content, dynamically adjusting brightness, contrast, color and sharpness in real time. Whether you're working with text applications, displaying images or watching a video, Philips SmartImage delivers great optimized LCD display performance.
Glossary TFT(thin film transistor) Usually made from amorphous silicon (a-Si) and used as a switch to a charge storage device located below each sub-pixel on an active matrix LCD.
Glossary Hubs are a key element in the plug-and-play architecture of USB. The Figure shows a typical hub. Hubs serve to simplify USB connectivity from the user's perspective providing low cost and complexity. Hubs are wiring concentrators and enable the multiple attachment characteristics of USB. Attachment points are referred to as ports. Each hub converts a single attachment point into multiple attachment points. The architecture supports concatenation of multiple hubs.
Glossary Downstream The direction of data flow from the host or away from the host. A downstream port is the port on a hub electrically farthest from the host that generates downstream data traffic from the hub. Downstream ports receive upstream data traffic. Upstream The direction of data flow towards the host. An upstream port is the port on a device electrically closest to the host that generates upstream data traffic from the hub. Upstream ports receive downstream data traffic.
