Q: What is DVI and DDWG?

A:
The DVI is the abbreviation of " Digital Visual Interface", developed by DDWG. The DDWG is the abbreviation of " Digital Display Working Group" which was organized by Intel Corporation, Silicon Image, Inc., Compaq Computer Corp., Fujitsu Limited, Hewlette-Packard Company, International Business Machines Corp., and NEC Corporation.
Q: What sepcifications and benefits does DVI provide?
A:
The DVI is primarily focused at providing a connection between a computer and its display device through a high-speed digital interconnection T.M.D.S. link. The DVI ensures all content transferred over this interface remains in the lossless digital domain from creation to consumption, which is much better than the standard VGA connector. In summary. the DVI interface enables:

1. Content to remain in the lossless digital domain from creation to consumption
2. Display technology independence
3. Plug and play through hot plug detection, EDID and DDC2B
4. Digital and Analog support in a single connector.

Q: What is the T.M.D.S. technology?
A:
The DVI uses Transition Minimized Differential Signaling (T.M.D.S.) technology for the base electrical interconnection, which was developed by Silicon Image, Inc., the member of DDWG. The T.M.D.S. link is used to send graphics data to the monitor. The transition minimization is achieved by implementing an advanced encoding algorithm that converts 8-bits of data into a 10-bit transition minimixed, DC balanced character. This interface specification allows for two T.M.D.S. links enabling large pixel format digital display devices. One or two T.M.D.S. links are available depending on the pixel format and timings desired. The two T.M.D.S. links share the same clock allowing the bandwidth to be evenly divided between the two links.

The transmitter incorporates an advanced coding algorithm to enable T.M.D.S. signaling for reduced EMI across copper cables and DC-balancing for data transmission over fiber optic cables.In addition, the advanced coding algorithm enables robust clock recovery at the receiver to achieve high skew tolerance for driving longer cable lengths as well as shorter low cost cables.
