A
Active matrix 
 
This is a kind of liquid crystal display structure in which switching tr\
ansistors are attached to each 
pixel to control the on/off voltage. It produces a brighter and sharper \
display with a broader viewing 
angle than a passive matrix display. Also refer to TFT (thin film trans\
istor).
 
Amorphous silicon (a-Si)
A semiconductor material that is used to make the thin film transistors \
(TFTs) layer of an active 
matrix LCD.
 
Aspect ratio
The width-to-height ratio of the active area of a display. In general, m\
ost monitors have an aspect 
ratio of 4:3. Wide monitors or TVs have an aspect ratio of 16:9 or 16:10\
.

Glossary
The light source for a transmissive LCD. There are two techniques used i\
n nowaday LCD designs. 
Most TFT LCD panels use CCFLs (cold cathode fluorescent light) and a d\
iffuser panel directly 
behind the liquid crystal layer. New technology using Light Emitting Dio\
des (LED) are still under 
development.
 
Brightness
The dimension of color that is referred to an achromatic scale, ranging \
from black to white, also 
called lightness or luminous reflectance. Because of confusion with satu\
ration, the use of this term 
should be discouraged.
 
C 
CCFL(cold cathode fluorescent light)
These are the fluorescent light tubes providing the light for the LCD mo\
dule. These tubes are 
generally very thin, approximately 2 mm in diameter.
 
Chromaticity
That part of color specification, which does not involve illuminance. Ch\
romaticity is two-dimensional 
and specified by pairs of numbers such as dominant wavelength and purity\
.
 
CIE (Commission International de IEclairage)
The International Commission on Illumination, the primary international \
organization concerned with 
color and color measurement.
 
Color temperature
A measurement of the color of light radiated by an object while it is be\
ing heated. This 
measurement is express in terms of absolute scale, (degrees Kelvin). L\
ower Kelvin temperatures 
such as 2400° K are red; higher temperatures such as 9300° K are b\
lue. Neutral temperature is 
white, at 6504° K. Philips monitors generally offers 9300° K, 6500\
° K, and user define.
 
Contrast
The luminance variation between light and dark areas in an image.

D
D-SUB 
A VGA Analog input connector. Your monitor comes with a D-Sub cable.
 
Digital Visual Interface (DVI)
The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) specification provides a high-speed\
 digital connection for visual 
data types that is display technology independent. The interface is prim\
arily focused at providing a 
connection between a computer and its display device. The DVI specificat\
ion meets the needs of all 
segments of the PC industry (workstation, desktop, laptop, etc.) and w\
ill enable these different 
segments to unite around one monitor interface specification.
The DVI interface enables:
1.  Reduce signal loss and video noise in signal due to less signal conversi\
on.
2.  Independent from display technology, and can be used on LCD, Plasma, LCO\
S, etc.
3.  Plug and play through hot plug detection, EDID and DDC2B.
4.  Digital and Analog support in a single connector (DVI-I only).
