- 22. Monitors Cathode RayTube (CRT) Most common type of monitor Screen coated by phosphorus material(red blue green) Electrons fired from the back Electrons excite phosphor to glow Phosphor is arranged in dots called pixels Dot mask ensures proper pixel is lit Produces Electromagnetic Radiations(EMR) risky for health.

- 26. Monitors Passive matrixLCD Pixels arranged in a grid Pixels are activated indirectly Row and column are activated Animation can be blurry
- 27. Monitors Active matrixLCD Each pixel is activated directly Use separate transistors. Pixels have 4 transistors One each for red, green, blue One for opaqueness Transistors arranged in a thin film Animation is crisp and clean Also known as thin film transistor. Newer version is LED
- 28. Monitors Drawbacks toLCD More expensive than CRT Can be more fragile than CRT
- 29. Monitors Plasma monitor Gasis excited to produce light Voltage is applied to gas sandwich between glass plates causes to produce ultraviolet UV rays. UV brightens the pixels.

Editor's Notes
- #4 Teaching tip It is helpful to have examples of input and output devices in class. Stories of obscure input output devices are typically well received by the students.
- #7 Teaching Tip Figure 4B.5 on page 163 provides an excellent rendering of how the print head works. Be sure to refer to the image as you teach.
- #10 Insider information Nearly all of the electronics for the printer is kept in the ink cartridge. Thus, when the cartridge is replaced the printing components of the printer are replaced. Refilling cartridges is OK, but should not be reused more than 2-3 times.
- #12 Insider information The laser printer works on a similar process to a photocopier. The first photocopier as we know it today was invented in Astoria NY in 1938 by Chester Carlson and Otto Kornei.
- #24 Teaching tip Unless your students have spend a lot of time with HTML or graphics colors, they will have a hard time grasping how RGB values work. The best methods are to show them various colors and then let them experiment. The website www.lynda.com/hue.html provides decimal-value examples of RGB values. Once the students have seen different colors, open MS Paint and let the students develop their own colors. Challenge them to build pink, orange, brown and any of their favorite colors
- #29 Insider information The limited viewing angle can be an advantage. For high security systems, low viewing angles stop casual glances at the screen.
- #32 Teaching tip It is helpful to draw the relationship between viewable and actual size.
- #33 Insider information Many CRT’s are capable of supporting several resolutions. LCD monitors in contrast often can only support one or two resolutions. The reason are the transistors on the LCD cannot move, while the electron gun on the CRT can simply aim for a smaller pixel. If you are in a computer class, stop and have students adjust their resolution on the screen. The simplest method is to right click the desktop and select properties. Click the settings tab, and adjust the slider. As the students are experimenting, have a student answer why larger resolution numbers make smaller images. The answer is higher resolutions draw with smaller pixels.
- #34 Insider information Whenever a TV camera films a computer monitor, the monitor seems to have a line moving up the screen. This is the monitor refreshing the pixels. The camera films faster than the eye can see, which is why the refresh is noticeable.
- #38 Insider information A projector is rated in lumens. This is a measure of how bright the projector is. Higher lumens ratings result in a brighter projector. For a guide to lumens ratings, see http://www.projectorpeople.com/tutorials/lumen-guide.asp.
- #39 Insider information The two leading video card families are ATI’s Radeon and NVIDIA’s GeForce line. Both offer exceptional graphics cards ranging from $50 to $600.
- #41 Insider Information Sound Blaster is the primary manufacturer of sound cards. Exceptional models start at around $30.00.
- #42 Insider information The PS2 game SOCOM II Navy Seals includes a USB headset to allow verbal communication with other team members.
- #43 Teaching tip Chapter 5 in the text explores data processing in greater detail. Figure 1B.5 shows data in binary format.
- #44 Teaching tip Most computer problems are caused by user error. Given this fact, it is fun here to teach the student the acronym PEBKAC the Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair. A little humor can break up the lecture monotony.
