Why are old monitors green?

Old monitors had very low refresh rates (driven by hardware prices), and green phosphor has the longest afterglow (remains on the screen for the longest time) Green phosphor was the first available for use in monitors (and some sources also say that monitors of this type were physically lighter)

Why is it called monochrome?

The term monochrome comes from Ancient Greek μονόχρωμος (monochromos) ‘having one color’. A monochromatic object or image reflects colors in shades of limited colors or hues. Images using only shades of grey (with or without black or white) are called grayscale or black-and-white.

How does a monochrome CRT works?

A CRT monitor contains millions of tiny red, green, and blue phosphor dots that glow when struck by an electron beam that travels across the screen to create a visible image. The illustration below shows how this works inside a CRT. The anode is positive, so it attracts the electrons pouring off the cathode.

What is difference between monochrome and color monitors?

Unlike color monitors, which display text and graphics in multiple colors through the use of alternating-intensity red, green, and blue phosphors, monochrome monitors have only one color of phosphor (mono means “one”, and chrome means “color”). All text and graphics are displayed in that color.

Is the MDA card a monochrome monitor?

The MDA is a monochrome card and displays on a TTL monochrome monitor. The original IBM mono monitor has green phosphor, so that’s the colour I’ll use when describing its behaviour. MDA monitors also exist with amber and white phosphor. An alternative acronym for this card is MDPA (Monochrome Display and Printer Adapter).

How does TTL work on a composite video?

All of these TTL levels are smacked down and mixed passively to one single composite video signal with sync. This is, of course, miles away from resembling a video signal conformant to the standards, but it usually does work (if you fiddle with the sync adjustment trimpot, until the image stops dancing around).

Can a mono CGA TV work with NTSC?

With a mono CGA, it’s enough for the TV just to support NTSC. Or if not, you can stabilize the jumping picture by tweaking the vertical stage frequency, until it is stationary. But with an MDA or Hercules, 99.9 % of TVs won’t sync to those frequencies, resulting in a corrupted or a blank picture.
