LLinearityThe degree to measure the actual location of a pixel on the screen corresponds with its intended location. (see figure )Line frequencySee Horizontal scanning frequency.Low-emission monitorA monitor that complies with international standards on radiation.See Electromagnetic radiation standards.Low-frequency electric and magnetic fieldsAlternating fields generated by the deflection yoke. These are subject to increasing attention, notably bygoverning authorities, the trade and the press. Although there is no scientific evidence that monitor emissionsare harmful, much effort has gone into reducing emissions on the principle of better safe than sorry.Currently, there are two areas of interest: very-low frequency (VLF) electric and magnetic fields extendingfrom 2 kHz to 400 kHz, and extreme low frequency (ELF) fields extending from 5 Hz to 2 kHz.See also Electromagnetic radiation standards.RETURN TO TOP OF THE PAGEGlossaryfile:///D|/rita/LF2/LF2/LFa1/multi_manual/english/GLOSSARY/GLOSSARY.HTM (8 of 18) [8/29/2001 3:14:04 PM]
