All Monitors 500+ – SmallHD – Tech Doc– Frame Delay Calculation

PROBLEM:   

How to compute the line time of one our modern (500 series and later) monitors:

SOLUTION :    (1/Frames per second) + 11/(Frames per second x Total vertical lines per frame) = delay time in seconds.  For a 1080p60 source, the delay is (1/60) + 11/(60*1125) = 16.8 ms.  For a 720p24 source the delay is (1/24) + 11/(24*750) = 42.3 ms.  

The major delay we usually see is typically the delay from the camera’s sensor to its output. (since ours is so comparatively small.)

Keywords: frame, delay, milliseconds
