Composite Video Output Circuit: Get Ideas & Solutions

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on generating a composite video signal, specifically for use with a television display in a microprocessor project. Participants mention the availability of chips that can generate composite video signals, including those used in NTSC test instruments. The original poster seeks a color composite video signal and is interested in using a television instead of a computer monitor. Questions arise about the television's baseband composite video input and its connector type. A reference to an application note from Maxim is provided for further guidance on the topic.

Hey Guys,

Does anyone have a general idea of the circuit needed to generate a composite video signal?

There are chips that generate composit video for you. Is that what you mean? There are some that are used in NTSC test instruments too, with built-in test patterns.

What is your application? Generate composite video from what? R-B-B-syncs?

Yes. To be more specific, I need a color composite video signal. I would like to use a television for a display for a microprocessor system that I am building. I could use a normal computer monitor but I would like to experiment with a television for a display first.

And your TV has a baseband composite video input? What is the connector for it?

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
