DEFINITIONS
AES:
(Audio Engineering Society): A professional organization that recommends standards for
the audio industries.
AES/EBU:
Informal name for a digital audio standard established jointly by the Audio Engineering
Society and the European Broadcasting Union organisations. This audio standard is
formally known as AES3 but may also be informally called AES/EBU audio or simply
AES audio.
ANALOG:
An adjective describing any signal that varies continuously as opposed to a digital signal
that contains discrete levels representing digits 0 and 1.
A-TO D CONVERTER (ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL):
analog signal into a digital representation of that signal.
BIT:
A binary representation of 0 or 1. One of the quantized levels of a pixel.
BIT PARALLEL:
each pair of wires carries a single bit. This standard is covered under SMPTE 125M,
EBU 3267-E and CCIR 656.
BIT SERIAL: Bit-wise transmission of digital video down a single conductor such as coaxial cable.
May also be sent through fiber optics. This standard is covered under SMPTE 259M
and CCIR 656.
BIT STREAM: A continuous series of bits transmitted on a line.
BNC:
Acronym for Bayonet Neill Concelman - a coaxial cable connector used extensively in
professional television systems. These connectors have a characteristic impedance of
75 ohms and are standardized by IEC 61169-8 Annex A.
