CAAC

™

(CAT5-to-Analog and Analog-to-CAT5

™

Proprietary video analog bandwidth equalizing technology enabling transparent video and audio
conversion to and from coaxial and CAT5/CAT6 .

Clear Matrix Pro

Renowned, cutting-edge scaling algorithm built into our Digital Video Processors, delivering the utmost in
video clarity and image resolution .
De-interlaces 480i or 1080i input video, converting to 1080p as an intermediate format .
Analyzes the input video signal at twelve different points spatially and three points temporally in the visual
quadrant field .

SDS

™

(Super Digital Scaling)

All-digital scaling .
Takes the video image from 1080p to the native resolution of the display, with no artifacts .

DPE

™

(Digital Picture Enhancement)

Advanced algorithm that adjusts both positive and negative gamma, for a significant improvement in the
video image and enhanced black level .
While most digital video processors only adjust to positive gamma, Key Digital

features DPE in our digital

video processors to provide adjustment in negative gamma .

DSX

™

(Dynamic Stretch Enhancement)

A unique algorithm that controls which portion of the video image is dynamically stretched, particularly
useful to fill your widescreen 16:9 display when viewing 4:3 images and prevent Plasma screen burn .
Most conventional processors only stretch the center or far edge of the image, but Key Digital’s DSX
system gives the user the utmost in flexibility in determining the best possible stretch position .

DEE

™

(Digital Edge Enhancement)

Key Digital’s unique edge enhancement provides a sharper image, resulting in a viewing experience far
superior to conventional sharpness controls .
DEE technology processes the video signal in both the horizontal and vertical directions, resulting in
smooth, vibrant, color-saturated images that are truly film-like in quality .

Key Digital’s cutting-edge Technologies drive our award-winning product solutions.
The result is pristine video images and well-thought-out solutions as only Key Digital

can deliver. Here’s a summary of the Technologies we’ve engineered into our products:

HOVO

™

(Horizontal Offset Vertical Offset)

Developed by Key Digital

to satisfy the stringent DVI and HDMI requirements for correct synchronization of

the video signal to the display .
Key Digital’s

HOVO

™

circuit is a powerful syncing design that corrects the syncing on these newer

standards and allows for repositioning of these signals to correctly match them to the display .

DVIC

™

(Digital Video Internal Clock Exchange)

Key Digital’s powerful DVIC

™

system regenerates the high frequency digital processing clock to provide

superior performance in 1080i to 1080p conversion .
This regeneration maximizes the video performance for displaying signals in the true HDTV 1080p format .

DVPC

™

(Digital Video Phase Controller)

Key Digital’s DVPC

™

circuit provides seven individual settings for properly adjusting the phase of the digital

processing clock with respect to the video data .
Accurate phase adjustments of the digital processing clocks are required to provide the absolute best
picture quality .

IAS

™

(Intelligent Auto Sense)

Key Digital’s Auto Sensing Circuit automatically senses the active video source and drives it to the display .
The novel IAS circuit built into our products performs seamless input auto switching, delivering crystal-clear
images without signal degradation .

LHBC

™

(Linear High Bandwidth Circuit)

To deliver the highest-quality video images, all Key Digital

products feature LHBC

™

, ultra-linear components

with an extremely wide bandwidth in excess of 300 MHz .
These high-bandwidth devices, along with aerospace-designed layouts, assure pristine, high quality video
image free of noise or distortions .
Our rigorous design specifications require over three-times the bandwidth commonly used for HDTV
products .

LSDC

™

(Lip Sync Delay Compensation)

Digital video processing circuits typically delay the video by several frames, and without correction the audio
and video are typically not aligned, resulting in a very noticeable and annoying lip-sync error .
Key Digital’s LSDC circuitry lets the user correct for the video delay, with a wide degree of correction of 0 – 10
frames, which is enough delay to bring your video and audio back into perfect lip sync alignment .

MBDC

™

(Micro Balance Dielectric Cable)

Key Digital’s high-quality MBDC digital cables are outstanding for reliable delivery of digital video signals
to a display .
MBDC, the unique balance of silver, copper and polyethylene materials, allows the digital video imaging
information to transfer without signal degradation .
All Key Digital

Cables feature MBDC’s unique combination of materials that are terminated with the highest

possible integrity, as poor termination will degrade signal performance .

Surface Mount Technology

™

and Multi-Layer Board Technology

™

Circuit boards used in Key Digital

products use the very latest in materials and design, including surface

mount technology, to yield the best possible performance and reliability .
Every Key Digital

product delivers the best possible video image because our Printed Circuit Boards

(PCB’s) are designed by aerospace engineers who are extremely sophisticated at implementing extremely
wideband, low-noise circuits that communicate video signals over long distances without degradation in
signal quality .
All Key Digital

circuits are impedance-matched by the careful positioning of components and placement of

ground planes, assuring you that our products have a high degree of compatibility with virtually any and all
video displays currently available .
