Electrical System Design for the SMPTE D-1 DTTR

Jurgen K. R. Heitmann

The design of the electrical system for the D-1 digital television tape recorder (DTTR) was developed after that of the mechanical system. This article describes the process of finding the best solution for synchronization, error protection, and video/audio sample distribution. Following an explanation of video segments and video sectors, the distribution of the four audio signals is discussed. The tracking control record is also explained.
