12.GLOSSARY Afterimage The Afterimage is particular to LCD monitors when the monitor screen is left on for a long period without use. The “Afterimage” can be removed gradually by changing the displayed image. Clock With the analog input signal display, the analog signal is converted to a digital signal by the LCD circuitry. To convert the signal correctly, the LCD monitor needs to produce the same number clock pulse as the dot clock of the graphics system.
Phase The phase adjustment decides the sampling timing point for converting the analog input signal to a digital signal. Adjusting the phase after the clock adjustment will produce a clear screen. The LCD panel consists of a fixed number of pixel elements which are illuminated to form the screen image. The EIZO L371 display panel consists of 1024 horizontal pixels and 768 vertical pixels, and the L671 consists of 1280 horizontal pixels and 1024 vertical pixels.
