Several models have been proposed for the colorimetric calibration of CRT monitors. These models use different mathematical functions to approximate the relationship between the digital frame buffer values driving a color channel and the phosphor emission of that channel. In this paper an evaluation is presented of colorimetric errors in terms of CIELAB lightness, hue, and chroma deviations caused by insufficient fit of such functions. A simple new function with few parameters minimizing these deviations is introduced. An analysis of the effect of monitor state and screen position on the accuracy of calibration has also been carried out.
