Digital Visual Interface (DVI)
The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) specification provides a high-speed digital connection for visual data types
that is display technology independent. The interface is primarily focused at providing a connection between
a computer and its display device. The DVI specification meets the needs of all segments of the PC industry
(workstation, desktop, laptop, etc.) and will enable these different segments to unite around one monitor
interface specification.
The DVI interface enables:
1.
Content to remain in the lossless digital domain from creation to consumption.
2.
Display technology independence.
3.
Plug and play through hot plug detection, EDID and DDC2B.
4.
Digital and Analog support in a single connector.
