PAGE 2
Who is Ensemble Designs? By Engineers, For Engineers In 1989, a former television station engineer who loved designing and building video equipment, decided to start a new company. He relished the idea of taking an existing group of equipment and adding a few special pieces in order to create an even more elegant ensemble. So, he designed and built his first product and the company was born.

Field News Acquisition In this example two BrightPaks are used for outdoor, field news acquisition. One BrightPak is populated with a BrightEye 90-FA Up/Down/Cross Converter and is processing an HD or SD camera feed. The BrightEye 90-FA upconverts or cross converts the signal as needed to the desired HD format. For example, if the desired output is 720p, any input delivered to the BrightEye 90-FA (SD or HD) would be converted to 720p. Audio levels and video levels can be adjusted.

Glossary AES/EBU – The digital audio standard defined as a joint effort of the Audio Engineering Society and the European Broadcast Union. AES/EBU or AES3 describes a serial bitstream that carries two audio channels, thus an AES stream is a stereo pair. The AES/EBU standard covers a wide range of sample rates and quantizations (bit depths.) In television systems, these will generally be 48 KHz and either 20 or 24 bits.

Color Difference – Color Difference systems take advantage of the details of human vision. We have more acuity in our black and white vision than we do in color. This means that we need only the luminance information to be carried at full bandwidth, we can scrimp on the color channels. In order to do this, RGB information is converted to carry all of the luminance (Y is the black and white of the scene) in a single channel. The other two channels are used to carry the “color difference”.

point uses three flat contact blades in a triangular arrangement, set in a rectangular connector. The IEC specification does not dictate line voltage or frequency. Therefore, the user must take care to verify that a device either has a universal input (capable of 90 to 230 volts, either 50 or 60 Hz), or that a line voltage switch, if present, is set correctly. bandwidth of both the hardware and software used for this work is ever increasing.

much higher than the desired passband. This allows the use of more easily realized anti-alias filters. PAL – During the early days of color television in North America, European broadcasters developed a competing system called Phase Alternation by Line. This slightly more complex system is better able to withstand the differential gain and phase errors that appear in analog amplifiers and transmission systems. Engineers at the BBC claim that it stands for Perfection At Last.

element. This keeps the signal symmetrically balanced so that its DC content is zero. And it also means that the timing pickoff point is now at the point where the signal crosses blanking and is no longer subject to variation with amplitude. This makes Tri-Level Sync a much more robust signal and one which can be delivered with less jitter.
