5-4 Glossary Clock The analog input monitor needs to reproduce a clock of the same frequency as the dot clock of the graphics system in use, when the analog input signal is converted to a digital signal for image display. This is called clock adjustment. If the clock pulse is not set correctly, some vertical bars appear on the screen. DVI (Digital Visual Interface) DVI is a digital interface standard. DVI allows direct transmission of the PC’s digital data without loss.
Temperature Color temperature is a method to measure the white color tone, generally indicated in degrees Kelvin. The screen becomes reddish at a low temperature, and bluish at a high temperature, like the flame temperature. 5000K: Slightly reddish white 6500K: Warm white like paper white 9300K: Slightly bluish white TMDS (Transition Minimized Differential Signaling) A signal transmission system for digital interface.
