Tektronix provides test and measurement instruments, solutions and services for the computer, semiconductor, military/aerospace, consumer electronics and education industries worldwide.
The process of altering the frequency response of a video amplifier to compensate for high-frequency losses in coaxial cable.
Industry:Entertainment
A file that provides the system with information regarding application requirements. This information may include peripherals that are connected and require special drivers (such as a mouse). Other information that might be specified is the number of files that can be open simultaneously, or the number of disk drives that can be accessed.
Industry:Entertainment
A device used to erase an entire tape at one time. Bulk erasers are usually more effective than recorders’ erase heads.

a) Data Transmission: A process in which the effective gain applied to a signal is varied as a function of the signal magnitude, the effective gain being greater for small rather than for large signals.
b) Video: The reduction in amplitude gain at one level of a picture signal with respect to the gain at another level of the same signal.
Note: The gain referred to in the definition is for a signal amplitude small in comparison with the total peak-to-peak picture signal involved. A quantitative evaluation of this effect can be obtained by a measurement of differential gain.
c) Production: A transfer function (as in gamma correction) or other nonlinear adjustment imposed upon signal amplitude values.
Industry:Entertainment
System that transmits original programming and programming of broadcast television stations, to consumers over a wired network.
Industry:Entertainment
A system file that you change to customize the way your system behaves. Such files are sometimes referred to as customization files.
Industry:Entertainment
Transferring a program recorded on a lower quality videotape to a higher quality videotape (e.g., from Hi-8 to Betacam). Bumping up to a higher format allows footage to be preserved on a more stable tape format and makes it possible to edit in a higher-end editing environment.
Industry:Entertainment
Compression is used in the digital environment to describe initial digital quantization employing transforms and algorithms encoding data into a representation that requires fewer bits or lower data rates or processing of an existing digital bit stream to convey the intended information in fewer bits or lower data rate. Compression (bit rate) may be reversible compression, lossles, or it may be irreversible compression, lossy.

This fixture is another way of measuring Chrominance to Luminance delay. The fixture allows the delay to be incrementally adjusted until there is only one peak in the baseline, indicating all the delay errors have been dialed out. The delay value can be read from the fixture while the gain can be calculated from the remaining peaks.
Industry:Entertainment
Hardware at the end of a cable that lets you fasten the cable to an outlet, port, or another connector.
