Analog processing boosts HDTV

摘要

As HDTV display technology matures, the quality of the analog video and audio processing will ultimately differentiate one TV set from another. Digital processing in HDTVs (including image scaling, de-interlacing, and MPEG demodulation) continues to play a significant role, but these functions are rapidly becoming standardized. The analog processing of video and audio signals in an HDTV directly affects a user's "TV-watching experience," and HDTV makers are quickly finding that improvements in the analog design of their TV sets result in higher sales volumes and gross margins.
