DDC (Display Data Channel)
DDC is a communication channel over which the monitor automatically
informs the host system about its capabilities. DDC uses a formerly
unconnected signal pin in the 15-pin VGA connector. The system will perform
the “Plug ‘n Play” feature if both the monitor and the host implement DDC
protocol.
