Active Components


For RGBHV (VGA/XGA)

The significant difference between the transmission of TV images and
computer image is the number of lines per image and the image change frequency.

The number of lines for TV images is odd.
The number of lines for computer is even.

This makes the two signal types incompatible.

Usually the analog output on our PC is a 15-pin HD-socket.
Five signals are available here, each transmitted on one line:

Line 1 Red Analog image signal red; 0.7 Vss on 75 Ohm
Line 2 Green Analog image signal green; 0.7 Vss on 75 Ohm
Line 3 Blue Analog image signal blue; 0.7 Vss on 75 Ohm
Line 4 Horizontal frequency Line change impulse TTL-level (2-10 Vss)
Line 5 Vertical frequency Line change impulse TTL-level (2-10 Vss)

The signals for horizontal and vertical deflection differ widely, depending on the PC manufacturer. This also handicaps transmission over long distances.
The higher image resolutions on the PC require significantly higher band widths (stated in MHz).
The following chart clarifies the issue.

To transmit a Powerpoint presentation with a resolution of only(!) 800 x 600 pixels and a screen change frequency of 60 Hz we need a band width of at least 30 MHz.
The following distribution amplifiers have a band width of > 400 MHz (depending on the damping value on the connection cables)
