Monitor Requirements

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

The monitor must have the following features:

• 27-inch analog monitor that supports super Video Graphics Array (SVGA).
• Minimum of 640 x 480 resolution, although 800 x 600 resolution is strongly recommended, with a refresh rate of 60 hertz.
• Digitally controlled geometry: skew, rotate, pincushion, size, position.
• Support for the Standard DDC2B VGA Monitor Identification Protocol.
• Television-level brightness and phosphor luminance.
• Maximum 0.75-millimeter dot pitch for true 800 x 600 resolution at a monitor size of 27 inches. Proportionally higher dot pitch can be provided in larger monitors.
• Medium-persistence phosphors, optimized for 60 hertz with no noticeable flicker.
• Compliance with Energy Star power savings standard.
