PROGRAM BLOCK (V. CHIP) FUNCTION

Since laws have been passed in the United States requiring a way of blocking undesirable programming, the V-chip has become a required component in television sets. The V-chip is a computer chip which decodes signals added to broadcast signals transmitted by television broadcasters. These signals are classified by programming content (e.g., amount of violence or sexual content) and age, and viewers may specify settings which block certain types of programming.

Program blocking may be set to a specific level judged by parents to be harmful to children depending on their age or the content of the programming in question, and the V-chip makes it impossible for such children to view programs with ratings exceeding the specified level.

The V-chip uses the following rating system.
