Abstract
Digital video standards define byte-stream signal formats for transferring video over cables. The composite and component standards, two digital video standards that relate most closely to the NTSC broadcast standard used in North America and Japan, are discussed. The analog NTSC signal and the framework of digital video standards are reviewed. The horizontal timing, quantization, and TRS-ID used by the composite digital standard, and the vertical renaming, scan line timing, and pixel value quantizing used by the component digital standard are described.<>
