ITU: The United Nations regulatory body governing all forms of communications. ITU-R
(previously CCIR) regulates the radio frequency spectrum, while ITU-T (previously CCITT)
deals with the telecommunications standards.
ITU-R601: See CCIR601
PIXEL: The smallest distinguishable and resolvable area in a video image. A single point on the
screen. In digital video, a single sample of the picture. Derived from the words picture
element.
RESOLUTION: The number of bits (four, eight, ten, etc.) determines the resolution of the signal. Eight
bits is the minimum resolution for broadcast television signals.
4 bits = a resolution of 1 in 16.
8 bits = a resolution of 1 in 256.
10 bits = a resolution of 1 in 1024.
SERIAL DIGITAL: Digital information that is transmitted in serial form. Often used informally to refer to
serial digital television signals.
SMPTE (Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers): A professional organization that
recommends standards for the film and television industries.
SMPTE 125M: The SMPTE standard for bit parallel digital interface for component video signals.
SMPTE 125M defines the parameters required to generate and distribute component
video signals on a parallel interface.
SMPTE 244M: The SMPTE standard for bit parallel digital interface for composite video signals. SMPTE
244M defines the parameters required to generate and distribute composite video signals
on a parallel interface.
SMPTE 259M: The SMPTE standard for 525 line serial digital component and composite interfaces.
SMPTE 292M: The SMPTE standard for HDTV 1.5 Gb/s serial digital high definition video interfaces.
SMPTE 299M: The SMPTE standard for embedding AES audio into SMPTE 292M serial digital high
definition video.
SMPTE 292M: The SMPTE standard for HDTV 1.5 Gb/s serial digital high definition video interfaces.
TRS-ID: Abbreviation for "Timing Reference Signal Identification". A reference signal used to
maintain timing in composite digital systems (it is four words long).
