Statement of Volatility – Dell 1708FPf, 1908FPf Monitor
The purpose of this document is to certify that Dell’s XXXX monitor will not save, retain or reproduce a
signal to any internal or external component after power has been removed and reapplied to the unit.
The Dell XXXX monitor contains both volatile and non-volatile (NV) memory ICs. Volatile memory(s) lose
their data immediately upon removal of power. Non-volatile memory ICs continue to retain their data
even after the power has been removed. However, no input video data is written into these memory ICs
during operation.
List below contains volatile and non volatile memory ICs used in Dell XXXX monitor.
