In some cases, a manufacturer sends all screens to sale then replaces the screen if the customer reports the unit as faulty and the defective pixels meet their minimum requirements for return. [1] Some screens come with a leaflet stating how many dead pixels they are allowed to have before the owner can send them back to the manufacturer.
IPS (in-plane switching) is a screen technology for liquid-crystal displays (LCDs). In IPS, a layer of liquid crystals is sandwiched between two glass surfaces . The liquid crystal molecules are aligned parallel to those surfaces in predetermined directions ( in-plane ).
TFT panels available in 2020 often use FRC to display 30-bit deep color or HDR10 with 24-bit color panels. [2] [3] Temporal dithering is also implemented in software, for if the display itself does not, as for instance GPU drivers from both AMD and Nvidia provide the option, enabled by default on some platforms.

The OS will then do a bunch of other recovery steps needed for the system to regain responsiveness. If the entire operation was successful, the end user might see some visual artefacts and a message will be shown on the screen describing what had happened ("Display driver stopped responding and has recovered."), else a BSOD might ensue.

Many cheaper LCDs are only able to display 262144 (2 18) colors. 8-bit S-IPS panels can display 16 million (2 24) colors and have significantly better black level, but are expensive and have slower response time. Input lag, because the LCD's A/D converter waits for each frame to be completely been output before drawing it to the LCD panel.
Front and rear views of the TVM MD-3 cathode-ray tube monitor (Enhanced Graphics Adapter era). Note the DE-9 connector, cryptic mode switch, contrast and brightness controls at front, and the V-Size and V-Hold knobs at rear, which allow the control of the scaling and signal to CRT refresh rate synchronization respectively.
Detail of a TFT display showing whole screen persistence artifacts TFT display showing persistence artifacts Image persistence on a BenQ GW2765HT IPS LCD monitor. Image persistence, or image retention, is a phenomenon in LCD and plasma displays where unwanted visual information is shown which corresponds to a previous state of the display.
The display driver may itself be an application-specific microcontroller and may incorporate RAM, Flash memory, EEPROM and/or ROM. Fixed ROM may contain firmware and display fonts. A notable example of a display driver IC is the Hitachi HD44780 LCD controller. Other controllers are KS0108, SSD1815 (graphics capable) and ST7920 (graphics capable)
