2.5 Compatibility

Interface Compatibility

RGB: Video signal consisting of R (red) G (green) and B (blue) signals. The signals
have a level of 0.7Vpp. The Green-Signal also carries the (composite) synchronisation
signals.

RGBS: Video signal consisting of R (red) G (green) and B (blue) signals and the
additional (composite) SYNC signal. All signals have 0.7Vpp.

VGA (also called RGBHV): Video signal consisting of R (red) G (green) and B (blue)
signals and additional horizontal/vertical synchronisation signals. The color signals have
a level of 0.7Vpp; the synchronisation TTL (5Volts).

Digital Video (DVI): DVI single link for resolution up to 1280x1024 at 60/75Hz.
Digital Video standard established by the Digital Display Working Group
(

www.ddwg.org

) R, G, B, CLOCK in an up to 1.4 Gbit/sec data stream. The signals

have a TMDS level.

CGA (Colour Graphic Adaptor): Legacy graphic standard, established by IBM,
supporting text with 40 or 80 characters in 25 lines with 16 colours or graphics in
640x200 with 2 colours or 320x200 with 4 colours.

EGA: Legacy graphic standard (Enhanced Graphic Adaptor), established by IBM,
supporting text with 80 characters in up to 43 lines graphics in 640x350 in 16 colours
from a palette of 64.

Supported SYNC forms

RGsB: RGB with SYNC on Green. The colour signals have a level of 0.7Vpp. The
Green-Signal also carries the (composite) synchronisation signals (app. –0.3V)

RGBs: RGB with composite SYNC signal. All signals have 0.7Vpp.

RGBS: RGB with composite SYNC signal. The colour signals have 0.7Vpp, the SYNC
Signal is TTL-Level (5V)

RGBHV: RGB with separate SYNC signals. The colour signals have 0.7Vpp, the SYNC
Signals have TTL-Level (5V)

MDA: black and white with separate SYNC signals (e.g. HERCULES). All Signals have
TTL-Level (5V) (with EGA/CGA to DVI Adaptor only)

CGA: colour with separate SYNC signals. All Signals have TTL-Level (5V) (with
EGA/CGA to DVI Adaptor only)

EGA: colour (2 pins per colour) with separate SYNC signals. All Signals have TTL-
Level (5V) (with EGA/CGA to DVI Adaptor only)
