The HSYNC and VSYNC signals have TTL levels. I often see 300-1k ohm series resistors on them. The analog R,G and B should be 75ohms. The maximum voltage should be 0.700 Volts + 0.07 Volts/-0.035 Volts You can get the VSIS standard from Video Electronics Standards Association 920 Hillview Court, Suite 140 Milpitas, CA 95035 408-957-9270 > -----Original Message----- > From: Chandan [SMTP:chandan_career@xxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Wednesday, August 01, 2001 9:24 AM > To: SI FORUM > Subject: [SI-LIST] VGA/VIDEO: IMPEDANCE & LENGTH > > > Hi everybody, > > The video interface between a motherboard & a monitor > typically consists of the following signals: > 1.
