Description

As the transition from analog to digital signal interfacing runs its course, there are still a few laggards like the 27-year-old VGA display connector. But it’s very much on the endangered species list as HDMI and DisplayPort become more entrenched. That’s not the whole story, though: The next generation of display interfaces is faster, denser, and smaller. They can carry multiple signals (video, audio, control, Ethernet) and some versions accomplish this with just five pins!
