Abstract: Modern serial communications design techniques have grown to be an important consideration in the planning and implementation of new video products. The real-time requirements of frame rate control demand a high rate of response, while user needs demand a design which can be both flexible in its configuration and sophisticated in its control over the equipment. Many of today's technologies allow for these design constraints to be incorporated in concept, but at the potential price of extremely sophisticated electronics. The correct choice of technologies requires the system architecture of the equipment to be well thought out and organized very early in the product planning cycle in order to minimize unnecessary cost and complexity. Unless the manufacturer has thoroughly planned out a product or series of products, the end result will be less than ideal.

Robert B. Steele received a B.A. in Mathematics from the University of California at Berkeley in 1976. From 1976 to 1977, he was Associate Engineer at Television Research International, where he developed microprocessor-based time-code products. In 1978 he joined Consolidated Video Systems, where he worked on the design of the EPIC editing system. Since 1978, he has been Senior Engineer at Ampex Corporation, with major design responsibilities on the ACE editing system. He has been a key team member of the engineering project since its inception.
