For many
years amplitude, Delay and phase corrected filters have found applications
in Television Broadcasting, Cable transmission, Direct Satellite
Transmission, Analog and Digital Image Processing, Analog to Digital
conversion and Computer Graphics. Allen Avionics offers four basic shape
factors or stopband ratios in their range of Video.

|
ATLW
General purpose filters include amplitude, Phase and Group Delay equalization
to improve pulse and bar response. Smooth slower roll off reduces ringing.
Can be used as in any Video bandwidth limiting application. Also used as
anti aliasing pre filters in analog to digital conversion applications or as
post aliasing filters with the addition of sin x/x correction.

ATCL
More complex filter for
applications
requiring a sharper cutoff
rate. The tight control of amplitude, phase and delay of the ATCL series
makes them ideal for high performance analog and digital applications.

| ATBW Almost a Brickwall Filter.
The ATBW is a good compromise for sharpness, ringing, insertion loss and
cost. The ATBW stopband ratio of 1.08 is close to the ABW series Brickwall
ratio of 1.066 but has less ringing, Delay distortion and insertion loss. |

ABW
A true Brickwall Filter. The ABW series is the sharpest cutoff Video filter
available anywhere. Tight control of the Amplitude, Phase and Delay
Characteristics create a filter unmatched for sharpness, low ringing,
insertion loss and cost. Typical NTSC applications use this filter to pass
4.20MHz and reject everything above 4.48MHz which requires a stopband ratio
of 1.066. See Brickwall data sheet.
