For example, a SVGA resolution LCD panel displays 800 pixels horizontally and 600 pixels vertically. Input video is also represented by the same terms. XGA input video has a format of 1024 pixels horizontally by 768 pixels vertically. When the input pixels contained in the video input format match the native resolution of the panel, there is a one-to- one correspondence of mapping of input video pixels to LCD pixels. For example, the pixel in 45 column and 26 row of the input video is in 45 column and 26 row of the LCD. When the input video is set at a lower resolution than the native resolution of the LCD, the direct correspondence between the video pixels and the LCD pixels is lost. The LCD controller can compute the correspondence between video pixels and LCD pixels using algorithms contained in the controller. The accuracy of the algorithms determines the fidelity of conversion of video pixels to LCD pixels. Poor fidelity conversion can result in artifacts in the LCD display, such as characters of varying width.
