6.7.6.3 HBLANK and VBLANK Signals
HBLANK and VBLANK signals are different from HSYNC
and VSYNC. The HSYNC and VSYNC signals are only
active for a portion of the blanking time, while the HBLANK
and VBLANK signals are active through the entire time.
HBLANK is a function of horizontal pixel position, while
VBLANK is a function of the vertical line number and the
horizontal pixel position. Figures 6-30 to 6-34 show the for-
mation of these signals using a 525-line NTSC video win-
dow.
