Simple Color Bars Measurement – Option VGA
Amplitude measurements are typically performed using the color bars test signal, which switches the RGB components on
and off to produce all eight possible color combinations (White, Yellow, Cyan, Green, Magenta, Red, Blue, and Black). There
are a variety of different forms for the color bar test signal, typically either using a maximum dynamic range of 700 mV = 100%
or at 75% with an RGB amplitude of 525 mV. The following table shows the amplitude for the RGB signal at 100% and 75%.
