Sync Signal
Types of Sync Signals
Sync (Synchronized) Signals refer to the standard signals that are required to display desired colors on the monitor. They are divided into Vertical and Horizontal Sync Signals. These signals display normal color images by the set resolution and frequency.
Separate | This is a scheme of transmitting individual vertical and hori |
| sync signals to the monitor. |
Composite | This is a scheme of combining vertical and horizontal syn |
| nals into one composite signal and transmitting it to the mo |
| The monitor displays the color signals by separating the co |
| site signal into original color signals. |
Dot Pitch | The image on a monitor is composed of red, green and blue dots. |
| The closer the dots, the higher the resolution. The distance be- |
| tween two dots of the same color is called the 'Dot Pitch'. Unit: |
| mm |
Vertical Frequency | The screen must be redrawn several times per second in order to |
| create and display an image for the user. The frequency of this |
| repetition per second is called the Vertical Frequency or Refresh |
| Rate. Unit: Hz |
| Example: If the same light repeats itself 60 times per second, this |
| is regarded as 60 Hz. |
Horizontal Frequency | The time to scan one line connecting the right edge to the left edge |
| of the screen horizontally is called the Horizontal Cycle. The in- |
| verse number of the Horizontal Cycle is called Horizontal Fre- |
| quency. Unit: kHz |
Interlace and | Showing the horizontal lines of the screen from the top to the bot- |
Methods | tom sequentially is called the |
| ing odd lines and then even lines in turn is called the Interlace |
| method. The |
| monitors to ensure a clear image. The Interlace method is the same |
| as that used in TVs. |
Plug & Play | This is a function that provides the best quality screen for the user |
| by allowing the computer and the monitor to exchange informa- |
| tion automatically. This monitor follows the international standard |
| VESA DDC for the Plug & Play function. |
Resolution | The number of horizontal and vertical dots used to compose the |
| screen image is called the 'resolution'. This number shows the ac- |
