What is the difference between tv screen and computer monitor?
L. Shivakumar, T. N. ANSWER 1: Computer monitors are capable of accepting signals only from the central processing unit of a computer. Therefore they are unable to reproduce a colour image from a composite video signal whose waveform conforms to a broadcast standard (NTSC, PAL, D-MAC, etc.). Computer monitors are fitted with connectors characteristic of data processing systems (eg. DINorDB9/15 also called MINI SUB D15Connectors) and do not have an audio circuit. They are controlled by special adaptors (eg. monochrome or graphic adaptors), which are integrated in the central processing unit of the automatic data processing machine. . Their display pitch size starts at 0.41 mm for medium resolution and gets smaller as resolution increases. Sor to accommodate the presentation of small, yet well-defined images, computer monitors utilise smaller dot (pixel) sizes and greater convergence standards than those applicable to television receivers. In computer monitors, the video frequency (bandw
