Many of the newest high-performance video cards feature either the DVI-D (digital only) or DVI-I (digital and analog) version of this connector. DVI can support either high-resolution (dual-link, which is above 1280×1024 resolution) or low-resolution (singlelink, which has a maximum of 1280×1024 resolution) displays. DVI connectors use three rows of square pins, with pin 14 (power) recessed. Dual-link displays use all the connectors shown in Table 10.9, whereas single-link displays omit some connectors. Video cards that have only a DVI-I connector usually come with a special video cable that can connect to either analog VGA or DVI digital display types. Table 10.9 lists the pin assignments used by both DVI-D and DVI-I connectors.

Chapter 10—Video <strong>and</strong> Audio<br />

On the VGA cable connector that plugs into your video adapter,<br />

pin 9 is often pinless. Pin 5 is used only for testing purposes, <strong>and</strong><br />

pin 15 is rarely used (these are often pinless as well). To identify<br />

the type of monitor connected to the system, some manufacturers<br />

Digital Flat Panel Pinouts<br />

The Digital Flat Panel (DFP) is a Video Electronic St<strong>and</strong>ards<br />

Association specification for digital video displays, especially LCD<br />

panels. It was adopted in February 1999, but it already has been<br />

superseded for most uses by the DVI st<strong>and</strong>ard, discussed in the<br />

next section. The DFP supports a maximum resolution of<br />

1280×1024 <strong>and</strong> transmits only digital signals. The DFP connector<br />

has two rows of edge connectors.<br />

Table 10.8 provides the pinouts for DFP. DFP panels can be adapted<br />

to the newer DVI by the use of an adapter cable because both st<strong>and</strong>ards<br />

use the same TDMS PanelLink digital transfer protocol.<br />
