Tektronix provides test and measurement instruments, solutions and services for the computer, semiconductor, military/aerospace, consumer electronics and education industries worldwide.
In television, the circuits (usually satellite or telephone) used to transmit or “haul” a signal back from a remote site (such as a sports stadium) to a network headquarters, TV station, or other central location for processing before being distributed.
Industry:Entertainment
When a test signal having defined chrominance and luminance components is applied to the sending end of a television facility, chrominance-luminance delay inequality appears (at the receiving end) as the change in relative timing of the chrominance component relative to the luminance component of the test signal.

See Matte.
Industry:Entertainment
The circuit board that other boards in a system plug into. Usually contains the system buses. Sometimes called a Motherboard.
Industry:Entertainment
When a test signal having defined chrominance and luminance components is applied to the sending end of a television facility, chrominance-luminance gain inequality appears (at the receiving end) as the change in amplitude of the color component relative to the luminance component (of the test signal).
Industry:Entertainment
Transition limited to on/off or instantaneous transition-type edits; a basic editing process with limited capabilities.
Industry:Entertainment
Timing of a program from the end to the beginning. A reversal of clock-order so that remaining time or time left to the end of the program can be easily seen.
Industry:Entertainment
This distortion is present if chrominance gain is affected by chrominance amplitude. Chrominance nonlinear gain distortion is expressed in IRE or percent. It should be measured at different APL (Average Picture Level) and typically the worst error is quoted. Picture effects include incorrect color saturation due to nonlinear gain in relatively high amplitude chrominance signals. The modulated pedestal test signal is used to test for this distortion.
Industry:Entertainment
A transducer used to convert electrical signals into hills and valleys in the sides of record grooves.
Industry:Entertainment
A tape that contains a copy of a set of files and directories that are on your hard disk. A full backup tape contains a copy of all files and directories, including IRIX, which are on your hard disk.
