The DVI specification has support for analog connections and is compatible with theVGAinterface.
There are two kinds of DVI connectors: single link and double link.
Single-link DVI uses a single 165 MHz transmitter and supports resolutions up to 1920 1200 at 60 Hz.
Connectors with these extra pins are sometimes called DVI-DL (dual link).
The analog pins are the four pins surrounding the flat blade on the DVI-I or DVI-A connector.
However, you might connect the DVI-D male connector to the DVI-I female connector.
DVI is the only popular video standard that includes analog and digital transmission in the same connector.
