59 Monitors 59
60 Monitor Specifications Mono Display Adapter (MDA) Mono Graphics Adapter (MGA) Color Graphics Adapter (CGA) Enhanced Graphics Adapter (EGA) Video Graphics Array (VGA) Super VGA (SVGA) 60
61 Monitor Types CRT Cathode ray tube LCD Liquid crystal display 61
62 CRT Works by moving an electron beam back and forth across the back of the screen. Each time the beam makes a pass at the back of the screen, it lights up phospor dots on the inside of the glass tube, illuminating the active portions of the screen. By drawing lots of lines from the top to the bottom of the screen, it creates an entire screen of images. 62
63 Things to Look for - CRTs Dot Pitch size of smallest dot on the monitor the smaller, the better Poor Great Interlaced -vs.- Noninterlaced how the display is updated avoid interlaced monitors!!! Viewable area 63
64 LCD Uses two sheets of polarizing material, with a liquid crystal solution between them. An electric current passed through the liquid causes the crystals to align so that light cannot pass through them like a shutter 64
65 LCD Monochrome Blue or gray on a gray background Color Passive matrix cheaper Active matrix More expensive, sharper images May be backlit to be easier to read 65
66 LCD Uses much less electricity than CRTs Take up less desk space Will become the dominant monitor type in a few years 66
67 Monitor Sizes Measure the screen diagonally (like a television). Be cautious of the viewable area of the monitor. Prices have dropped recently due to an increase in the production yields of the glass used to make the screens. 67
68 Monitor Resolutions SVGA a function of the monitor and the video card 640 x 480 (standard VGA resolution) 800 x x x x

77 Parallel Ports - 2 names lpt1: to lpt4: uses: printers, lap-link data transfer 77
78 Joystick, Keyboard & Mouse Ports most home computers have a joystick port mouse port frees serial ports for other uses keyboard port can be regular pin or mini pin configuration (adapters available) 78
79 USB Ports A personal computer bus which can support up to 127 peripheral devices in a daisy chain configuration, and has a total bandwidth of 1.5 megabytes per second. It uses inexpensive cable, which can be up to 5 meters long. Supported on Win95 R2 and Win98 and Windows 2000, but not Win95 and NT more peripherals available now (cameras, input devices, scanners) Version 1.1 and 2.0 (now available) 79
80 Motherboard aka: system board where components are located, where expansion slots are located different bus designs 80
81 Bus Design - 1 Bus - links the CPU to hardware devices Different bus designs ISA MCA EISA VESA PCI AGP 81
82 Bus Designs - 2 ISA Industry Standard Architecture developed for original IBM PC originally 8 bits, extended to 16 bits 82
83 Bus Design - 3 MCA Micro Channel Architecture developed by IBM for the PS/2 family of computers in 1986 requires different expansion cards 16 bit design rarely licensed to other vendors out of production now 83
84 Bus Design - 4 EISA Extended Industry Standard Architecture developed by a consortium in response to IBM s MCA (led by Compaq) 32 bit design could use ISA cards in EISA slots popular in servers for a few years out of production now 84
85 Bus Design - 5 VESA Video Electronics Standards Assoc. connects directly to the microprocessor 32 bit design used to speed up video, then hard drive controllers No longer found on systems 85
86 Bus Design - 6 PCI Peripheral Components Interconnect local bus using 64 bit design used in high-end 486 and P5 systems replaced VESA 86
