	What is dot pitch? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
		Also called phosphor pitch, a measurement that indicates the diagonal distance between like-colored phosphor dots on a display screen.
		Measured in millimeters, the dot pitch is one of the principal characteristics that determines the quality of display monitors.
		The dot pitch of color monitors for personal computers ranges from about 0.15 mm to 0.30 mm.

	FAQCRT
		Dot pitch is not uniform across the screen: it is lowest in the center, and this is the region for which manufacturers give specifications.
		The local dot pitch at the corner of a picture tube may be noticeably higher than it is at the center, depending on whether or not expensive dynamic beam focusing circuitry is employed.
		Dot pitch is the distance, center to center, between the two closest dots of the same color; each set of three of the closest red, green, and blue dots is called a triad.

	Dot pitch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dot pitch (sometimes called line pitch or phosphor pitch) is a specification for a computer display that describes the distance between phosphor dots (sub-pixels) or LCD cells of the same color on the inside of a display screen.
		Thus, dot pitch is a measure of the size of a triad plus the distance between the triads.
		The exact difference between horizontal and diagonal dot pitch varies with the design of the monitor (see Pixel geometry), but a typical entry-level 0.28 mm (diagonal) monitor has a horizontal pitch of 0.24 or 0.25 mm, a good quality 0.26 mm (diagonal) unit has a horizontal pitch of 0.22 mm.

	1 The Monitor
		The spacing between the center of one dot or slot of the same color is called the dot pitch and is given in millimeters.
		For example, a monitor using a shadow mask and having a dot pitch of.27mm is about the same as a.25 mm dot pitch on a monitor using a slot mask.
		Dot pitch isn't a reliable measure of monitor quality because it's often distorted by different measurement techniques.

		Also known as "pixel pitch." The smaller the dot pitch, measured in fractions of millimeters, the crisper the image.
		For example, a.28 dot pitch means dots are 28/100ths of a millimeter apart.
		Thus, an 8µm rear-projection dot pitch is not 30 times smaller than a.24mm (240µm) dot pitch on a CRT or flat panel display, because 8µm refers to the source pixel, while.24mm is the screen pixel (what you see).

		The geometry of this arrangement means that dot pitch--the center-to-center distance between two phosphor dots of the same color--is less in the vertical direction (going to the same color dot two rows below) than in the horizontal direction (going to the same color dot on the same row with two dots in between).
		Mathematically, the stripe pitch of an aperture-grille mask is not directly comparable with the dot pitch of a standard dot mask.
		The dots on the screen are arranged so that unlike in a standard dot mask, vertical and diagonal dot pitches are different.

		Dot pitch is a measurement of the distance in millimeters between two same-color phosphor dots on the monitor’s screen.
		Thus, monitors with a small dot pitch of 0.25 mm to 0.27 mm are likely to provide a clearer image than those with a dot pitch of 0.28 mm or higher.
		In any case, the 0.25 dot pitch advertised for many aperture grille monitors is roughly equivalent to the 0.26 or 0.27 dot pitch of those with shadow mask technology.

		Dot pitch has traditionally been used to refer to the spacing between like color dots on CRT displays and is measured in different ways depending upon the specific CRT technology under consideration.
		As a rule of thumb, the diagonal dot pitch or grille pitch of a CRT display should be 0.28mm or smaller.
		A tight dot pitch or grille pitch does not guarantee good focus and may also lead to artifacts such as lowered light output and moiré patterns when displaying higher resolutions.

		To display a sharp 640x480 image, the horizontal dot pitch on a typical 13" screen would have to be 0.25 or 4 pixels per mm.
		Of course, they didn't rate monitors by horizontal dot pitch (or AG, for Aperture Grill) until a few years back, when someone determined that 0.22 mm dot pitch sounded much better than the competition's 0.27 or 0.28.
		That makes it easy to compare "regular" dot pitch, which is measured on an angle, with horizontal dot pitch, which is measured across the long dimension of the screen.

		The "dot" reticle itself is simply a reflection of a light emitting diode mounted inside the sight tube.
		With the aid of a SLR camera with a rangefinder focusing screen, by viewing the dot with 24 inches of eye relief, it becomes obvious that the dots on all four models are "focused" at around 30 feet, regardless of the distance of the target.

	What is Dot Pitch?
		Dot Pitch - also called Phosphor Pitch or Line Pitch - refers to the distance between the sub-pixels (phosphor dots) or liquid crystal display cells of the same color inside a display screen.
		Expressed in millimeters, technically, dot pitch is the sum of the size of a triad and the distance between the triads (a triad is a cluster of three phosphor dots, colored Red, Green, and Blue inside a CRT screen).
		Traditionally, dot pitch has been measured diagonally and this technique is widely assumed to give a more accurate representation of the monitor.
