component video

Component video is sent through three cables: two color shade (chrominance) signals and one

 

brightness (luminance) signal. Component video achieves greater color accuracy than

 

composite video or S VIDEO by splitting chrominance into two separate portions.

composite video

Composite video is sent through a single cable. Composite video combines the color shade

 

(chrominance) and brightness (luminance) information into one video signal.

digital television (DTV)

A new technology for transmitting and receiving broadcast television signals. DTV provides

 

higher resolution and improved sound quality over analog television.

National Television System

A unit of the Federal Communications Commission, Washington, DC, that establishes

Committee (NTSC)

television standards in the United States, such as NTSC Color, the standard used in this TV.

RF

Radio Frequency. That part of the frequency spectrum in which it is possible to radiate

 

(transmit) electromagnetic waves.

S VIDEO

S VIDEO requires a single cable, which carries the brightness (luminance) and color

 

(chrominance) signals of the picture separately. S VIDEO provides better resolution than

 

composite video, which carries the signals together.

VHF/UHF

VHF (Very High Frequency) is the part of the radio spectrum from 30 to 300 megahertz. UHF

 

(Ultra High Frequency) is the part of the radio spectrum from 300 to 3,000 megahertz.

Provides 480 lines of resolution. Displays images using progressive scanning, which transmits

 

each line from top to bottom.

720p

Provides 720 lines of resolution. Displays images using progressive scanning, which transmits

 

each line from top to bottom.

1080i

Provides 1080 lines of resolution. Displays images using interlaced scanning, which first

 

transmits all the odd lines on the TV screen and then the even lines. 1080i is one of the
