Black Box Explains
Analog video connectors.
e
VGA — The Video Graphics Array interface carries
analog RGB with separate horizontal and vertical sync
signals and is presented on an HD15 connector (also
called 15-pin D-subminiature). When VGA was introduced in 1987 for PC
video, it was a huge improvement over the EGA DB9 connector. VGA,
the basic format, supports resolutions up to 640 x 480 with 256 colors.
SVGA (Super VGA), XGA, and later formats continued the drive to
provide ever-sharper images and greater color depth. Plus, over the years,
VESA standards have brought structure and interoperability to a market
that was becoming a mixture of often incompatible SVGA graphics cards.
Later formats supported even higher resolutions — oftentimes, rivalling
those of digital 1080i and 1080p displays. These later formats include
SXGA (1280 x 1024), UXGA (1600 x 1200), and WUXGA (1920 x 1200).
Composite video — Typically a yellow RCA connector, it has
been the standard interface for consumer TV equipment. As its
name suggests, Composite video has the luminance (black and
white), chrominance (color), and sync pulses combined in one signal.
S-Video — Also called Y/C video, it was introduced to overcome
shortfalls associated with Composite video. It’s a less encoded video
format, transmitting color (C) and luminance (Y) information
separately to produce a sharper image.
Component video — This YCbCr connector separates the
signal more than S-Video for less interference and improved video.
In addition to Y (luminance) signals, it transmits color information
as two signals: B-Y (Blue minus luminance, also called Cb or Pb)
and R-Y (Red minus luminance, also called Cr or Pr).
For other analog video extenders, see page 65 – 66 in the Legacy Solutions section.
