VGA is an acronym that is used for Video Graphics Array. Well VGA is the display hardware and their introduction was with IBM PS/2 line of computers in 1987. Through widespread adoption the term has also come to mean either an analog CDS i.e that is Computer Display Standard, or the resolution of the very hardware.

VGA was actually the last IBM graphics standard to which the majority of PC clone manufacturers conformed. Thus this made it the lowest common denominator that virtually all post 1990 PC graphics hardware can be expected to implement. Also this was officially followed by extended graphics array standard of IBM. But also it was effectively superseded by various different extensions to VGA made by clone manufacturers, known as super VGA.

Meaning of VGA

Well dear here I am going to explain about the meaning of the VGA. As I have mentioned some of the things about the VGA, which stands for Video Graphics Array, also you have come across quite a few things about VGA. Well before sharing anything, I want to ask you, what actually the term VGA refers to? What do you mean by VGA? What are the things that come under the category of Video Graphics Array. All these things will be cleared in this section. So have patience and go through the following mentioned things.

1. The full for of VGA is in fact video graphics array which is a graphics display system for PCs developed by IBM.
2. Also VGA has become one of the facto standard for PCs.
3. Since the introduction of VGA in 1987, many other standards have been developed that offer greater resolution and more colors. But Video Graphics Display remains the lowest common denominator.
4. The fact is that all Personal Computer that are manufactured nowadays support VGA. And also it is possible that there may be some other more advanced standard as well.
5. Apart from this there are many other things as well that will amaze you regarding the  arena of VGA that is Video Graphics Array.

VGA Connector

Here is another thing that is related to VGA, Video Graphics Array. This is one of the popular things in the field of VGA. That is why here I am mentioning about this very topic. Let me come on the point directly. So guys and girls just pay heed what I am sharing.

Actually what is a VGA connector? What does it do? This all will be cleared here in this very section. Also you will come to know about the various awesome things that are included in the filed of the VGA.

Well dear a VGA connector is a 3 row 15 pin DE 15 connector. On many video cards, computer monitors, laptop computers as well as projectors, there is provision of the 15 pin VGA connector.Also this is in the case of the HDT sets. Guys and girls HDT sets are nothing but high definition television sets.One of the main noticeable thing here is that not only on laptop computers but also on other small devices, there can be uses of a mini VGA port instead of the very full full sized VGA connector.

There are many devices that still is having VGA connectors. It is also a fact, VGA actually coexisted with the DVI standard. VGA as well as DVI, they both are rapidly phased out in favor of the newer and more compact HDMI and DisplayPort Interface connectors.

This is all about the thing regarding Connector of Video Graphics Display. Let me move on the another topic which will be discussed in the upcoming section.

About VGA

Till now you have come through quite a few things about the very topic that is video Graphics Display known as VGA in short. Well let me here tell you more about this very thing so that you will be know in detail about the topic. I am going to clear all your doubts here. So guys let’s started once again.

Actually dear a video graphics design is commonly found on laptops that are windows based as well as entry PCs. The thing is that Macs use only DisplayPort nd mini DisplayPort Sockets. Another thing is that an analog interface between a computer as well as monitor that was widely used prior to the DVI standard. Older CRTs actually used video graphics array. And flat LCDs panels typically have both analog VGA and digital DVI. However newer PCs may have only DVI or DisplayPort Outputs.

Well dear readers of this blog, Video Graphics Display refers to only 640*480 pixels with the very color 16 or also 256 as well.This base level resolution is applied in order to boot the PC. This is also done to troubleshot the computer in safe Mode with the display driver disables. This is applied when there is a case of problem in the driver.

Designation detail of VGA

Well dear till now you have come across quite a few things about the very topic that is VGA here. I have shared about the meaning of VGA, full form of VGA as well. Also I have shared some important thing that are very amazing and noticeable. You have also get the things about the VGA connectors as well. Here I am going to focus on the circuitry design of the VGA that is Video Graphics Array.

Well VGA is referred to as an Array while that of an adapter. This is because it was implemented from the start as a single chip as well, an ASIC. Actually ASIC stands for application specific integrated circuit. This replaced both the Motorola video address generator as well as dozens of discrete logic chips that covered the full length ISA boards of the MDA, CGA and EGA. Their single chip implementation permitted the video graphic array to be placed directly on the motherboard of a PC with a minimum of difficulty. Since it only required video memory, an external RAMDAC and a timing crystals. Thus due to this, the first IBMPS/2 models were equipped with video graphics array on the motherboard and so.
