EUVL at Computer Glossary

What is it? Extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) is an advanced technology for making microprocessor a hundred times more powerful than those made today. Intel, , and Motorola have joined with the U.S. Department of Energy in a three year venture to develop a microchip with etched circuit lines smaller than 0.1 micron in width. (Todays circuits are generally greater than 0.25 micron.) Microprocessors made with the EUVL technology would be a hundred times more powerful than todays. memory chips would be able to store 1,000 times more information than they can today. The aim is to have a commercial manfacturing process ready before 2005.

Computer Term YUV is The method of color encoding for transmitting color video images while maintaining compatibility with black-and-white video. Uses less bandwidth than the three separate video signals in an RGB video transmission. Consists of two major components: luminance (Y), which corresponds to the brightness of an image pixel, and chrominance (UV or CrCb), which corresponds to the color of an image pixel.
