Never judge a book by it’s cover, so I guess never judge a screen by it’s picture but this 30-inch LCD from Samsung, their first using DisplayPort sure looks impressive.
Due to go into mass production in the second quarter of 2008 it has 2560 x 1600 resolution thanks to the zippiness of the new interface which, at twice the speed of today’s interfaces, transmits graphics data at 10.8Gbps.
Technical Specs:
Samsung’s new LCD only requires a single DisplayPort interface, instead of the two DVI (Digital Visual Interface) ports now used. In a joint undertaking with Genesis Microchip Inc. (Santa Clara, California), Samsung developed its 30″ panel using a new four-lane, 2.7Gbps/lane interface chip. The interface technology processes 2560×1600 pixels of graphics data at up to 10 bits of color depth or 1.07 billion colors, a feat that would normally require at least three DVI or four LVDS interface chips.
Samsung’s new 30″ LCD also offers the company’s proprietary Super Patterned Vertical Alignment (S-PVA) liquid crystal technology for 180° viewing angle, and 300nits brightness.
Specifications: Display size: 30″ Resolution: WQXGA (2,560 x 1,600 pixels) Response time: 6ms Viewing angle: 180°/180° Contrast ratio: 1000:1 Mode: S-PVA Brightness: 300 nits Colors: 16,777,000 Color saturation: 100% Interface: DisplayPort
