DVI Standards
Overview of DVI
Silicon Image, in conjunction with Intel and leading PC and display OEMs,
established DVI to enable a standard all-digital interface between PCs and
digital displays, such as LCD flat panel monitors. A DVI display system
consists of a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter is the source of the
signal, either built into the graphics chip itself, or as an add-on chip on the
printed circuit board of the graphics accelerator. The receiver is circuitry
within the display device that receives the digital signal, decodes it and then
passes it on to the circuitry that displays the image on the monitor.
DVI Specification
The DVI technical specification is available to hardware device, display,
component, and test equipment manufacturers at no charge. In order to download
the specification, or become an DVI adopter, please visit the Digital Display
Working Group (DDWG) website at http://www.ddwg.org.
