Glossary
YUV
Is The color encoding system used for analog television worldwide (NTSC, PAL and SECAM). The YUV
color space differs from RGB, which is what the camera captures and what humans view.
Composite Video and S-video
The original TV standard combined luma (Y) and both color signals (B-Y, R-Y) into one channel, which
uses one cable and is known as "composite video." An option known as "S-video" or "Y/C video" keeps
the luma separate from the color signals, using one cable, but with separate wires internally. S-video is a
bit sharper than composite video.
Component Video
When luma and each of the color signals (B-Y and R-Y) are maintained in separate channels, it is called
"component video," designated as YPbPr when in the analog domain and YCbCr when it is digital.
ASIC
An A pplication- S pecific I ntegrated C ircuit (ASIC) is an integrated circuit (IC) customized for a particular
use, rather than intended for general-purpose use.
S/PDIF
Is a Data Link Layer protocol and a set of Physical Layer specifications for carrying digital audio signals
between devices and stereo components over either optical or electrical cable. The name stands for
Sony/Philips Digital Interconnect Format (More commonly known as Sony Philips Digital Interface ).
