Flat Screen Display Technologies: Plasma, Electroluminescent, and Touchscreen

Classified in Technology

Written at on English with a size of 4.74 KB.

Flat Screen Electroluminescent Display

This is a type of flat-screen display based on the electroluminescent effect. This effect involves the non-thermal conversion of electric energy into light. Light is generated by striking a phosphorescent material with high-energy electrons.

Benefits:

  • Excellent viewing angle
  • Excellent brightness
  • Quick response

Disadvantages:

  • Low contrast
  • Monochromatic
  • High cost
  • High power consumption

Flat Plasma TV

In flat plasma TVs, light is emitted by a phosphor excited by a plasma discharge of noble gas. This technology involves applying a high voltage between two electrodes, generating a gas discharge. After colliding with a phosphorescent material, light is emitted. The term "plasma" refers to the ionized gas during discharge....

Network Topologies, Protocols, and Architectures

Classified in Computers

Written at on English with a size of 2.42 KB.

Network Topologies

Ring Topology

Connects hosts in a physical ring. The last host connects to the first.

Star Topology

Connects all cables to a central point.

Extended Star Topology

Connects individual stars using hubs or switches, extending network coverage.

Hierarchical Topology

Similar to extended star, but uses a computer to control traffic instead of hubs/switches.

Mesh Topology

Provides maximum protection by connecting each host to others, ensuring service continuity.

Network Communication Methods

Broadcast

Each host sends data to all others on the network. Access is first-come, first-served (e.g., Ethernet).

Transmission Tokens

Controls access via sequential token transmission. Hosts send data when they have the token (e.g., Token Ring, FDDI).

Network
