Digital video interfacing-a practical solution

A new serial digital interface is being proposed to handle both 4:2:2 digital component video and 4fsc digital composite video. It is a 10 bit system that also allows for possible expansion of the current 8 bit digital video standard, CCIR-601. Sony is manufacturing this serial digital IC with a complete range of coprocessors. The use of scrambled nonreturn to zero inverted has made it possible to implement a complete serialiser and deserialiser each on a single VLSI chip
