The DVI to VGA Adapter (REV A00) is a simple, passive adapter that allows you to connect a device with a DVI output to a monitor or display with a VGA input. Below are some key features and details:
Adapter Features:
- Type: Passive Adapter (converts signal without active power or processing)
- Connector 1: DVI-D (Digital only) or DVI-I (Digital + Analog)
- Connector 2: VGA (15-pin D-sub)
- Supported Resolution: Typically supports resolutions up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 60Hz, but performance can vary based on the specific hardware.
- Signal Conversion: Converts digital signals from DVI to analog VGA signals (since VGA is an analog-only standard).
Usage:
- Allows connection of DVI-equipped devices (such as desktop PCs, laptops, or graphics cards) to older VGA displays (such as monitors or projectors).
- Commonly used for legacy devices and setups where a VGA display needs to connect to a system with DVI output.
Note:
- This is a passive adapter, which means that it will not work if the DVI port is DVI-D (digital only) without any support for analog signals. If the device has a DVI-I port (which includes analog and digital signals), it will work without issues.
- For digital-to-digital connections, you would use a DVI to HDMI or DVI to DisplayPort adapter instead.
This adapter is useful for situations where you have older displays that only support VGA but need to connect to modern devices with DVI outputs.
