DVI-D to VGA Converter: Allows Conversion of Digital High-Definition DVI signal into VGA Video
The DVI-D to VGA converter is a hardware device which allows you to connect a VGA projector or a monitor with a 15 Pin HD connector to a computer with DVI-D video card. It basically connects computers with DVI-D single link graphics card to analog VGA monitors. The VGA resolutions supported are 1900 x 1200, 1600 x 1200, 1280 x 1024 and lower. This unit is HDCP compliant and best used when you don’t wish to replace your expensive video monitors or display adapters.
This Video converter is set to 1280 x 1024 by default but alternate video resolutions are available. Amongst the various types of video converters available on the market, the most popular ones are the DVI-D to VGA and the VGA to DVI-D converter. While the former is designed to allow conversion of digital DVI signals into analog, the latter works on a principle of allowing analog to digital DVI signal conversion.
These units require no external power supply for most applications and support simple plug and play functionality. The power consumption is approximately .54 watts. This device is HDCP, CE, FCC and RoHS compliant. The increasing demand of these converters can be attributed to its various key features some of which are compatibility with single link DVI-D devices such as PCs and Macs.
