Interlaced scanning
Describes a transfer of data in which the odd-numbered lines
of the source are written to the destination buffer first and
then the even-numbered lines (or vice-versa).
See also progressive scanning.
Latency
The time from when an operation is started to when the final
result is produced.
Live processing
See real-time processing.
LUT mapping
Look-up table mapping. A point-to-point operation that uses
a table to define a replacement value for each possible pixel
value in an image.
LVDS
Low-Voltage Differential Signaling. It is a way to
communicate data using a very low voltage swing (about
350mV) over two differential printed circuit board (PCB)
traces or a balanced cable.
PCI
Peripheral Component Interconnect. An expansion bus
standard for the '90s.
PCI Primary/Secondary Bus
A high-performance bus that provides a
processor-independent data path between the CPU and
high-speed peripherals.
Progressive scanning
Describes a transfer of data in which the lines of the source
input device are written sequentially into the destination
buffer.
Also known as non-interlaced. See also interlaced scanning.
