24-Bit RGB

24-Bit RGB: Used to describe a clocked parallel TFT connection that uses 24 data lines (8 for Red, 8 for Green, 8 for Blue) as well as Hsync, Vsync data enable, and pixel clock to transfer data to the TFT. Theoretical color depth is 224 or 16,777,216 colors.

18-Bit RGB

18-Bit RGB describes a clocked parallel TFT connection that uses 18 data lines (6 for Red, 6 for Green, 6 for Blue) as well as Hsync, Vsync, data enable, and pixel clock to transfer image data to a TFT. The theoretical color depth is 218 or 262,144 colors as each of the 18 data bus …

HDMI

HDMI is an acronym for High-Definition Multimedia Interface. HDMI means it is able to send a lot of data, very quickly. However, HDMI isn’t an analog communication like VGA, S-Video or parallel like 24-bit or 18-bit RGB TFTs. HDMI is actually a high-speed serial interface using a fancy TMDS (Transition Minimized Differential Signaling) protocol. Unlike …

IPS

IPS stands for In-Plane Switching. IPS displays are a type of TFT display in which the liquid crystals are arranged horizontally (in-plane) between glass plates. IPS displays have wider viewing angles and better color consistency than normal TN TFT displays. IPS displays can also be viewed from any direction.
