The included CD-ROM contains documents and tools to assist in designing, testing and evaluating various video subsystems.

Test images to enable the evaluation of a video subsystem. They are primarily used to test color accuracy and filter design. The sharper the transitions are without ringing, the better the filters. Since the images are computer-generated, there may be flicker along horizontal edges when viewed on an interlaced display. Unless the video signal is RF modulated, these images should pass through a system with no problems.

Links to associations, licensing authorities and standards organizations. Before starting any design, and several times during the design process, verify the latest specifications are being used since they are continually updated. The list of licensing authorities should be consulted before starting any chip or system design, since several licenses are required prior to purchasing chips.
