ABSTRACT
Various proposals, including improved analog connectors, hybrid digital-plus-analog approaches, and several all-digital interfaces have been put forth since the early 1990s. One, the Digital Visual Interface
(DVI), which is available in analog plus digital and digital-only forms, has seen reasonable success in higher-end PC products, but has not managed to take the majority of the market from the VGA.
Concerns over image quality, the near-complete replacement of the CRT by LCDs and other new display technologies, and growing concerns over content protection are prompting significant changes in display interface technology. Although PCs will likely continue to use the VGA interface in the short run, long-term, the future is moving to all-digital.
onsumer HDTV products have started a migration from the various analog connections to the all-digital High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) – but HDMI shows no signs of adoption in PCs, except for connection to TV products. Most recently, a pair of new PC-oriented standards, the Intel Unified Display Interface (UDI) and the VESA Display Port (DP) specification, have received some attention in the press as possible replacements for VGA. The UDI effort is now defunct, never having appeared on any actual hardware, while Display Port now appears to be the long-term future for the PC industry, and possibly the converged standard for both PC and CE products.
