Statement of Volatility – Dell 1908W Monitor
The purpose of this document is to certify that Dell’s 1908W 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 1908W 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 1908W monitor.
