Difference between LCD and CRT

Key Difference

 LCDs (Liquid Crystal Display) are displays that use liquid crystals sandwiched between two sheets of polarizing material. The images are displayed when electrical charge is applied to the crystals. 

CRTs (Cathode Ray Tube) are vacuum tubes that use electron guns and fluorescent screens to display images. CRTs and LCDs vary greatly and LCDs are replacing CRTs in today’s world. LCDs are lighter, slimmer and consume less power compared to CRTs. However, CRTs have a sharper image quality compared to LCDs.

LCDs (Liquid Crystal Display) are displays that use liquid crystals sandwiched between two sheets of polarizing material. The images are displayed when electrical charge is applied to the crystals. An LCD uses a select type of liquid crystal known as twisted nematics (TN), which are twisted in shape. Applying a current to these crystals causes them to unwind to a certain degree depending on the voltage. A LCD is in a layer formation, it starts with a mirror on the back for reflection, followed by a piece of glass that has a polarizing film on the bottom side, and a common electrode plane made of indium-tin oxide on top. After that is a layer of liquid crystals, followed by another piece of glass with an electrode and another polarizing film, which is at a right angle to the first one. The LCD is then hooked up to power source that provides a charge to the crystals and causes them to create an image on the screen. LCDs also have a backlight that makes the image visible to the user.

CRTs (Cathode Ray Tube) are vacuum tubes that use electron guns and fluorescent screens to display images. A heated filament or ‘cathode’ is in a vacuum in a glass tube, while an electron gun pours electrons into the tube and the electrons are attracted by the positive anode in the tubes. The screen is coated with phosphor, which glows after is hit by the electron gun. Color CRTs have three different electron guns, one for each primary color. A shadow mask, thin metal screen filled with holes, is used to control the points where the electron beams passes to focus on a single point on the CRT’s phosphor surface. Another method is an aperture-grill, which uses tiny vertical wires. Aperture-grill displays are more expensive compared to shadow mask CRTs. However, CRTs are becoming obsolete as it is being replaced by LCDs, OLEDs, Plasmas, etc.

Star Topology

Advantages

▸ Due to its centralized nature, the topology offers simplicity of operation. 
▸ It also achieves isolation of each device in the network.
▸ Adding or removing network nodes is easy, and can be done without affecting the entire network.
▸ Due to the centralized nature, it is easy to detect faults in the network devices.
▸ As the analysis of traffic is easy, the topology poses lesser security risk.
▸ Data packets do not have to pass through many nodes, like in the case of a ring network. Thus, with the use of a high-capacity central hub, traffic load can be handled at fairly decent speeds.

Disadvantages

▸ Network operation depends on the functioning of the central hub. Hence, central hub failure leads to failure of the entire network.
▸ Also, the number of nodes that can be added, depends on the capacity of the central hub.
▸ The setup cost is quite high.

Chromecast users can now send Google Drive presentations to the big screen

If you’ve been using Google Drive to make presentations, get ready to have a whole lot more versatility when it comes to showing them off, thanks to the Chromecast. Up until now, only a select few users were able to cast their Google Drive presentations to the big screen with the tech giant’s handy little dongle. But Google has been working on getting the feature polished off for a full public release and – detailed in a report by The Next Digit – it now appears to be up and ready to use, despite the lack of any official press release. 

To take advantage of the new functionality, you’ll first and foremost need a Chromecast, which is still available for just $35 via Amazon. Before any casting can occur – just as with Netflix and other Chromecast-supported extensions – you’ll also need to have the Google Cast extension installed on your browser, and your computer must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your dongle. Then, once you have a presentation open in Drive, just click the “Present on another device” option under the “Present” menu, and choose the device you want to cast to. 

For now, the new Chromecast functionality is available only within the desktop version of Drive. Mobile support has yet to be announced. 

With this new functionality, Drive joins the growing number of apps and services supported by the innovative Chromecast. For more tips, tricks, and best practices for Drive, check out our helpful guide to the service – and while you’re at it, here are five ways to use your Chromecast outside the box, and another 18 tips and tricks for getting the most out of the device.
