1. Of a monitor screen, the physical size (width) of an individual tristimulus optoelectronic element (e.g., phosphor triad, stripe triad, LCD element), usually expressed in millimeters (e.g., "
0. 28 mm dot pitch"), in the direction of scanning.
Note: The width of one tristimulus optoelectronic element determines the maximum resolution of a monitor screen.

A cryptographic key having a length of 112 bits plus 16 parity bits. [After X9.24]
Modulation in which (a) a subcarrier is modulated with an information-bearing signal and (b) the resulting modulated subcarrier is then used to modulate another carrier that has a higher frequency.
Synonym birefringence.
A still image transmitted in the standardized video stream encoded to twice the horizontal and twice the vertical resolution as the previous motion video (i.e., full common intermediate format (FCIF) or 4*FCIF). This mode uses bit 5 "Hi-Res" bit. [After T1.80
