NTSC
National Television Standard Committee. Color system mainly used in North America and
Japan. Color carrier NTSC M/N= 3.579545 MHz, NTSC 4.43= 4.433619 MHz (this is a VCR
norm, it is not transmitted off-air)
NVM Non-Volatile Memory: IC containing TV related data such as alignments
OSD On Screen Display
PLL Phase Locked Loop. Used for e.g.
LVDS Low Voltage Differential Signalling
PAL
Phase Alternating Line. Color system mainly used in West Europe (color carrier= 4.433619
MHz) and South America (color carrier PAL M= 3.575612 MHz and PAL N= 3.582056MHz)
PCB Printed Circuit Board (same as PWB)
PCM Pulse Code Modulation
PWB Printed Wiring Board (same as "PCB")
PWM Pulse Width Modulation
QAM Quadrature Amplitude Modulation;modulation method
RAM Random Access Memory
RGB
Red, Green, and Blue. The primary color signals for TV. By mixing levels of R, G, and B, all
colors (Y/C) are reproduced.
RC Remote Control RC5 / RC6 Signal protocol from the remote control receiver
RESET RESET signal
