Component
video signal
With the component
video signal system,
the video signal
is separated
into the Y signal for the luminance
and the PB
and PF_signals
for the chrominance.
Color can be
reproduced
more faithfully
with this system
because
each
of these signals
is independent.
The component
signal is
also called the "color
difference
signal"
because
the
luminance
signal is subtracted
from the color signal.
A monitor
with component
input jacks is required
in order
to use the component
signal for output.

Composite video signal
With the composite
video
signal system,
the video
signal
is composed
of three basic elements
of a video picture;
color, brightness
and synchronization
data. A composite
video jack on a video
component
transmits
these three
elements
combined.
