Two adjacent lit subpixels:

Three adjacent lit subpixels (one

white pixel)

 

- Green + Blue = Cyan (Light Blue)

 

Black Dot Defects Black dot defects appear as pixels or subpixels that are always dark or "off". These are the types of black dot defects:

One dark subpixel

Two or three adjacent dark subpixels

Proximity of Pixel Defects

Because pixel and subpixels defects of the same type that are nearby one another may be more noticeable, Philips also specifies tolerances for the proximity of pixel defects.

Pixel Defect Tolerances

In order to qualify for repair or replacement due to pixel defects during the warranty period, a TFT LCD panel in a Philips flat panel monitor must have pixel or subpixel defects exceeding the tolerances listed in the following tables.
