Sony HDM-3830: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 18:35, 11 March 2026

The Sony HDM-3830 is a 38-inch 16:9 professional CRT color monitor designed for use with Sony's High Definition Video System (HDVS). It features a flat and square Super Fine Pitch Trinitron tube with 0.46 mm phosphor trio pitch and SMPTE standard phosphor, incorporating a digital uniformity circuit to improve white uniformity. The anti-reflection coating provides high contrast. The HDM-3830E is the European market variant of the same model.

The monitor accepts G, B, R/Y, Pb, Pr analog HD signals via BNC with loop-through, and supports tri-level sync, bi-level sync, or HD/VD sync. It supports 525-line non-interlaced signal (IDTV decoder output) input. H Delay, V Delay, and Underscan facilities are provided for monitoring and evaluating camera and VTR signals. A digital convergence system with 25-point adjustment and a beam detecting circuit for black level and color temperature stabilization are incorporated. Seven types of test signals are included.
