Tektronix provides test and measurement instruments, solutions and services for the computer, semiconductor, military/aerospace, consumer electronics and education industries worldwide.
A manual method of routing signals using a panel of receptacles for sources and destinations and wire jumpers to interconnect them.
Industry:Software
A) Actual elapsed time (as opposed to “tape time”).
b) Displaying an image or responding to a user’s request almost simultaneously.
When you display an animation in real time, you perform the movements at the speed you made them in the animation. c) Computation or processing done in the present to control physical events occurring in the present. For example, when a digital effects system operator moves a joystick and the video images on the monitor appear to move simultaneously, the computations required to make the images move are said to have occurred in real time.
Industry:Software
The physical hardware that contains the CPU and graphics boards, a system disk, and a power supply. You connect it to a monitor, keyboard, and mouse to configure a working system. It is also sometimes referred to as the chassis.
Industry:Software
The number of frames (or seconds and frames) between the cue point and the edit point which allows ACE to synchronise transports prior to an edit.
Industry:Software
The process of breaking down an image into a series of elements or groups of elements representing light values and transmitting this information in time sequence.
Industry:Software
Small, projecting imperfections on the surface of the coating that limit and cause variations in head-to-tape contact. A term useful in discussions of friction and modulation noise.
Industry:Software
The amount of time it takes for a signal to travel through a piece of equipment or a length of cable. Also called propagation delay.
Industry:Software
A) Device used to correct for time base errors and stabilise the timing of the video output from a tape machine.
Machines like VHS players where a single pass of the video head represents many video lines are particularly susceptible to tape stretch, jitter, and speed variations which cause some recorded video lines to be shorter or longer than others. The TBC acts as a “rubber-band” storage device to line up each horizontal line at its proper location allowing for synchronous playback.
b) A device used to rectify any problems with a video signal’s sync pulses by generating a new clean time base and synchronising any other incoming video to this reference. The Digital Video Mixer includes two infinite window, full field TBCs.
