the qualities of a display Flashcards
Resolution
This is the number of pixels in a display, like 1920x1080 (Full HD), determining image sharpness. Higher resolutions mean sharper visuals.
Aspect Ratio
Width-to-height ratio of a display, like 16:9, affecting screen shape. Different ratios suit different content types.
Color Depth
Measured in bits per pixel (e.g., 24-bit), it defines the range of colors a display can show. Higher bit depths mean more accurate and vibrant colors.
THREE LED/LCD Panel Display Technologies and list at least ONE advantage and ONE disadvantage for each technology
- IPS (In-Plane Switching)
Definition: A type of LCD panel technology known for accurate color reproduction and wide viewing angles.
Advantage: Excellent color accuracy and consistent colors from different angles.
Disadvantage: Slower response times, which can cause motion blur in fast-moving content.
- TN (Twisted Nematic)
Definition: A type of LCD panel that is fast and responsive, commonly used in gaming monitors.
Advantage: Very fast response times and low input lag, making it ideal for gaming.
Disadvantage: Inferior color quality and narrow viewing angles, leading to color distortion when viewed off-center.
- VA (Vertical Alignment)
Definition: A type of LCD panel known for its high contrast ratios and deep blacks, suitable for multimedia.
Advantage: Deep blacks and high contrast, providing better image quality in dark scenes.
Disadvantage: Slower response times can cause ghosting, and viewing angles are narrower than IPS.
