2.2.3 Luminance Processing
The digitized composite video signal passes through either a luminance comb filter or a chroma trap filter,
either of which removes chrominance information from the composite signal to generate a luminance
signal. The luminance signal is then fed into the input of a peaking circuit. Figure 2-8 illustrates the basic
functions of the luminance data path. In the case of S-Video, the luminance signal bypasses the comb
filter or chroma trap filter and is fed directly to the circuit. High-frequency components of the luminance
signal are enhanced by a peaking filter (sharpness). Figure 2-9 shows the characteristics of the peaking
filter at four different gain settings that are programmable via the host port.

2.2.4 Color Transient Improvement (CTI)
CTI enhances horizontal color transients by delay modulation for both color difference signals. The
operation must be performed only on YCbCr-formatted data. The color difference signal transition points
are maintained, but the edges are enhanced for signals that have bandwidth-limited color components (for
example, CVBS and S-Video).
