Title: Digital Flat Panel (DFP)
Document #: VESA-1999-2
Version: 1.0
Date: February 1999
Table of Contents Yes  [ free ]
Abstract: DFP's purpose is to provide for an interface between a personal computer and a digital flat panel monitor. It is based largely on the existing P&D Standard. Transmission Minimized Differential Signaling (TMDS) is used to transport the digital video to the monitor. DDC and EDID Standards are supported for configuration management. To insure compatibility with the P&D Standard, a pin is reserved for Hot Plug Detection support. For simplicity, no other electrical interfaces are supported in this standard. The physical interface part of this standard is based on the MDR20 connector.
