Comparison of CRT & LCD monitors
Summary
Ultimately, it cannot be said that LCD monitors are superior to CRT monitors or vice-versa either.
Rather when choosing which device to use you need to weigh up the advantages and disadvantages
in order to decide which technology to use.
In the public and presentational arena, LC displays are definitely preferable over CRT monitors. In
relation to the display workstation order, the small footprint is also an important argument and in
this respect more favours flat panel displays. On the other hand, when it comes to particular colour
depth, or you need a large viewable diagonal, the choice of a CRT monitor is still unrivalled.
CRT monitor
Flat panel display
Advantages:
h
Multiscan monitor.
h
same quality in all resolutions.
h
proven connector standard
h
analog (infinite) colour depth
h
no pixel errors
h
also large proportions
h
inexpensive
Advantages:
h
no geometry errors
h
no convergence errors
h
excellent brightness and contrast values
h
flicker-free
h
insensitive to magnetic and electric fields
h
low power consumption
h
low heat build-up
h
small footprint
h
low weight
Disadvantages:
h
geometry errors possible
h
convergence errors possible
h
limited brightness and contrast val-
ues
h
only flicker-free from 72 Hz
h
sensitive to magnetic and electric
fields
h
relatively high power consumption
h
high heat build-up
h
larger footprint
h
high weight
Disadvantages:
h
Multi-frequency monitor.
h
best quality only in its native resolution.
h
Absence of standards
h
limited colour depth
h
pixel errors
h
no large proportions
h
expensive
