Damper Wires

When viewing a white background, very thin horizontal
lines are visible on the screen as shown below. These lines
are damper wires.
The Trinitron tube has a vertically striped aperture grille
inside. The aperture grille allows more light to pass
through to the screen giving the Trinitron CRT more color
and brightness.
These damper wires are attached to the aperture grille to
prevent vibration of the aperture grille and keep the screen
image constantly stable.

synchronizes with the V. CLK in accordance with the VESA
standards and outputs the EDID (Extended Display
Identification Data) to the data line.
When a DDC2B host system is connected, the monitor
automatically switches to the appropriate standard.
DDC is a trademark of the Video Electronics Standard
