A CGA monitor is just a glorified TV set with a slightly better CRT tube, really.
It's like a SCART television with a digital filter (TTL) mounted onto it, essentially.
(As far as the electronic goes, the biggest achievement was the conversion of the yellow colour to brown.)
In reverse order, the same was done internally with PET/C64 hybrid computers, so they couldn't produce grayscale on internal green monitor, but just absolute black/green.
An EGA monitor, by comparison, is a real PC monitor.
That's why only a few users own one, it was more than just a TV or the equivalent to a Commodore 1084s monitor. So it's rare. 😝
In addition to TV mode, an EGA monitor has its own, non-15 KHz mode (21 KHz) and can display 640x350 on an EGA card.
It also decodes the intensity lines for red/green/blue, so it's rgbRGB (digital) rather than RGB (digital). It can display up to 64 colours, simultaneously. Except for the original IBM EGA monitor, maybe.
