The original 22-inch Apple Cinema Display
It was made in the second week, i.e. January, of 2000. I'd preferred it to have been made in 1999 but oh well...
Thank heavens for separate DVI, USB and power connections - no future-unproof ADC nonsense going on here.
The Apple Flat Panel Display 62W Power Adapter, made in week 51, i.e. December, of 1999 (woohoo!).
Interestingly, its 1600×1024 timing (which is 25:16, not 16:10 LOL) has a pixel clock ever so slightly higher than 112 MHz.
Code:
Mode = 1600 × 1024 @ 59,938Hz
Pixel Clock............. 112,27 MHz Non-Interlaced
Horizontal Vertical
Active.................. 1600 pixels 1024 lines
Front Porch............. 88 pixels 1 lines
Sync Width.............. 16 pixels 1 lines
Back Porch.............. 104 pixels 10 lines
Blanking................ 208 pixels 12 lines
Total................... 1808 pixels 1036 lines
Scan Rate............... 62,096 kHz 59,938 Hz
Image Size.............. 470 mm 301 mm
Border.................. 0 pixels 0 lines
Sync: Digital separate with
* Positive vertical polarity
* Positive horizontal polarity
I thought the ATI Rage 128 Pro which shipped in the G4 towers the display was available/compatible with had a built-in TMDS transmitter limited to 112 MHz. Maybe it can just about run this timing, or it does have a higher limit after all. The legendary SGI 1600SW Flat Panel (the first-ever 1600×1024 LCD) has modelines with lower pixel clocks ranging from 103 to 108 MHz, e.g. this one.
