scorpion 0 Posted June 7, 2008 (edited) Once again, it is a Transmission, the camera is STILL DIGITAL. Ironic is it not! We use a digital ccd to give us video, and then we use a digital to analog converter, and then we put this signal on to a cable, and then it gets to a board where we hook it up to an analog to digital converter!!!!!!! http://www.pixim.com/products-and-technology/technology http://www.pixim.com/assets/files/product_and_tech/Pixim_Digital_Pixel_System_Backgrounder.pdf The core invention in the Digital Pixel System technology is the inclusion of an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) within each pixel of the image sensor. The ADC translates the light signal into a digital value at the immediate point of capture, thus minimizing signal degradation and cross-talk in the array and allowing for greater noise reduction methods. Once the data is captured in a digital format, a variety of digital signal processing techniques are used for optimal image reproduction. http://www.gencore.co.kr/korean/more/techwell/ShortFormCatalog_Jan_2003_Rev1.pdf The TW2804 includes four high quality NTSC/ PAL video decoders, which convert analog composite to digital component YCbCr for security application. The TW280X contains four 10-bit A/D and proprietary digital gain/clamp controllers and utilizes proprietary techniques for separating lumin-ance & chrominance to reduce both cross-luminance and crosschrominance artifacts. The high performance dual scalers in each channel offer two differently scaled video outputs with 54MHz ITU-R BT.656 format for security system design. Four built-in motion detectors can also increase the feature of security system. Both Rory, and AK357 are right!!! Edited June 7, 2008 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
