RGB signal

Typically, RGB signals are transmitted over the camera cable.

Also, those color difference signals need lower data bandwidth compared to full RGB signals.

Each cathode is fed the amplified signal from one of the decoded RGB signals.

Previous schemes for color television systems, which were incompatible with existing monochrome receivers, transmitted RGB signals in various ways.

This system did not directly encode or transmit the RGB signals; instead it combined these colors into one overall brightness figure, the "luminance".

Note that operations mimicking physical, linear behaviour, such as image scaling, is ideally carried out in the left hand side, working on linear RGB signals.

RGB signal formats are often based on modified versions of the RS-170 and RS-343 standards for monochrome video.

The obvious solution on the broadcast end would be to use three conventional Iconoscopes with colored filters in front of them to produce an RGB signal.

Also, not all SCART cables make use of all the pins, often leaving out RGB signals.

Standard-resolution arcade monitors use RGB signals with a composite sync, which is SCART-compatible.

The connector carries a standard composite video signal along with the RGB components, for use with devices that cannot process RGB signals.

Video encoder - To convert the arcade board's RGB signal to a standard compatible with a standard television, such as NTSC.

Instead, the RGB signals are converted into YUV form, where the Y signal represents the overall brightness, and can be transmitted as the luminance signal.

However, this is of dwindling importance: since 1980 most European domestic video equipment uses French-originated SCART connectors, allowing the transmission of RGB signals between devices.

PAL consolizations are typically easier, since the RGB signal can be directly fed into most PAL TV's by means such as SCART.

Cathode ray tube displays are driven by red, green, and blue voltage signals, but these RGB signals are not efficient as a representation for storage and transmission, since they have a lot of redundancy.

STANAG3350 video is supplied as a component RGB signal with timing similar to a corresponding civilian composite video standard such as NTSC, PAL, or RS-343.

Although the UK uses the higher-quality RGB signal transmission scheme provided by European Standard SCART, SCART ports are seldom found in Hong Kong equipment.

It is worth to note that most manufacturers include DVI-I connector, allowing(via simple adapter) standard RGB signal output to an old CRT or LCD monitor with VGA input.

In recent years, non fully wired SCART cables have tended to disappear from the market, because modern devices systematically provide RGB signals, while composite-only, analogue VCRs and pay-TV decoders could not.

This used analog RGB signals, rather than fixed sixteen or sixty-four color lines as on previous CGA and EGA monitors, allowing arbitrary increases in the color depth (or levels of grey) compared to its predecessors.

The MULTI OUT connector (later used on the Nintendo 64 and GameCube) can output composite video, S-Video and RGB signals, as well as RF with an external RF modulator.

Since the SCART connector is not common on televisions in North America, frequently a supergun will also convert the RGB signal into NTSC composite video, S-video, Component Video or VGA signals, with varying degrees of quality.

Also, some versions of legacy consoles such as Sega's Mega Drive (Genesis) and Nintendo's SNES and Nintendo 64 (modified NTSC and early French SECAM versions only) are capable of outputting RGB signals.
