RETURN TO TOP OF THE PAGE G Gamma Screen luminance as a function of video voltage approximately follows a mathematical power function of the input video signal, the exponent of which is called gamma.
Glossary A technique of improving the viewing angle of an LCD where the liquid crystal molecules are switched in the plane of the LCD layer rather than vertical to it. L LCD (liquid crystal display) A display composed of liquid crystal suspended between two transparent sheets. The display is composed thousands of pixels which can be turned on or off with electrical stimulation. Thus, colorful images/texts can be generated. Liquid crystal The compound found in liquid crystal displays.
Glossary Pixel PICture Element; the smallest element on a computerized CRT or LCD image, and hence a display. Polarizer A light filter which only allows light waves of a certain rotation through. Polarized material with perpendicular filtering is used in LCDs to enclose the liquid crystal. The liquid crystal is then used as the medium which twists the light waves 90° in order to allow the light to pass through or not. R Refresh rate The number of times per second the screen is refreshed or redrawn.
Glossary USB plug: An upstream and a downstream USB plug is provide for user's convenience. T TFT(thin film transistor) Usually made from amorphous silicon (a-Si) and used as a switch to a charge storage device located below each sub-pixel on an active matrix LCD. U USB or Universal Serial Bus A smart plug for PC peripherals. USB automatically determines resources (like driver software and bus bandwidth) required by peripherals. USB makes necessary resources available without user intervention.
Glossary The upstream port of a hub connects the hub towards the host. Each of the other downstream ports of a hub allows connection to another hub or function. Hubs can detect, attach and detach at each downstream port and enable the distribution of power to downstream devices. Each downstream port can be individually enabled and configured at either full or low speed. The hub isolates low speed ports from full speed signaling. A hub consists of two portions: the Hub Controller and Hub Repeater.
Glossary Upstream The direction of data flow towards the host. An upstream port is the port on a device electrically closest to the host that generates upstream data traffic from the hub. Upstream ports receive downstream data traffic. RETURN TO TOP OF THE PAGE V Vertical refresh rate Expressed in Hz, it is the number of frames (complete pictures) written to the screen every second.
