How does each individual pixel know which colour to represent

865 views

I understand the basis of how a single pixel works, but can’t work out how you deliver a specific and exact signal to every single tiny RGB block out of the 2 073 600 existiting in a typical 1080p monitor.

I there individual wiring going out to each one, and if so how are the signals timed and sent out?

Well it delivers them in batches of horizontal rows from top to bottom. So it only does 1080 at a time. For 1080p (progressive) it goes top to bottom. 1080i (interlaced) does every other then doubles back for the other half.
