Permanently unlit or lit pixels
The standard of production techniques today cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen
display. A few isolated constant lit or unlit pixels may be present. The maximum permitted number
of pixels faults is stipulated in the strict international standard ISO 13406-2 (Class II).
Example:
A 15" LCD screen monitor with a resolution of 1280 x 800 has 1280 x 800 = 1,024,000 pixels. Each
pixel consists of three subpixels (red, green and blue), so there are almost 3 million subpixels in
total. According to ISO 13406-2 (Class II), a maximum of 4 pixels and 5 subpixels may be defective,
i.e. a total of 17 defective subpixels. That is approx. 0,0005 % of the entire subpixel!
Background lighting
TFT monitors are operated with background lighting. The luminosity of the background
lighting can decrease during the period of use of the notebook. However, you can
set the brightness of your monitor individually.
