9、 to Recommendation 656 as a synchronizing reference.2 Rec. 711-1ANNEX 11. IntroductionThis Annex describes an analogue reference signal for the synchronization of component digital videoequipment*.2. Analogue synchronizing reference signal2.1 Signal characteristicsThe reference signal shall be a 525
10、line or 625-line signal as defined in Recommendation 470, appropriate tothe system, in which the active video information is replaced by blanking level*.In this application the chrominance subcarrier burst or the unmodulated subcarrier of the SECAM system areoptional.2.2 Signal amplitude and polari
11、tyThe amplitude of the synchronizing pulses shall be 300 mV nominal.The amplitude of the optional subscriber burst shall be 300 mV peak-to-peak nominal.The polarity of the synchronizing pulses shall be negative.2.3 Build-up time of line synchronizing pulsesThe build-up time of the leading (reference
12、) edge of line synchronizing pulses shall not exceed 210 ns,measured between the 10% and 90% amplitude levels.2.4 JitterThe timing of individual leading edges of line synchronizing pulses shall be within 2.5 ns of the averagetiming of leading edges, as determined over at least one field.2.5 Impedanc
13、eThe reference signal shall operate in a 75 environment.2.6 ConnectorThe connector shall conform to the standard BNC type (IEC Publication 169-8 (1978)._*Studies of broadcasting with both 525-line and 625-line standards have concluded that, to cater for a mixed analogue/digitalenvironment, satisfact
14、ory performance, flexibility and commonality are achieved by the use of the analogue black signal modifiedslightly in respect of the tolerance on rise-time and jitter.*Reference signals of higher constant average picture level (APL) are specifically not recommended because they may causeperformance
15、degradation related to APL variations between the vertical interval and other parts of the signal. Furthermore,reference signals with changing APL, such as moving video or switched test signals, are also specifically not recommendedbecause they may cause disturbances to the video signal being processed by the equipment for which they are the reference.
