Utilizing its high 301Mb/s data transfer rate, the D-5 1/2-inch component digital format can offer uncompressed component picture for standard-definition TV, and its 1/4 low compression rate achieves superior picture quality for high-definition TV. This format has become popular, especially in high-quality production and transmission processes of high-definition TV. Maxell has developed highly reliable D-5-compatible videocassettes featuring new Ceramic Armor Metal Particles and other Maxell unique tape technologies. |
 |
High Output/Low Noise
Newly developed 0.1µm-diameter fine Ceramic Armor Metal Particles enhance the tape’s high magnetic energy and new calendering technology ensures tape surface smoothness for increased short-wavelength output (2dB higher than Maxell D-3) and decreased noise. High-density recording demanded for D-5 format is thereby attained. |
|
Fine Head Contact
Thin, highly rigid, PEN (Polyethylene Naphthalate) is used as base film material. Even with thin tape that is just 11µm thick, superb head-to-tape contact and durability are attained, offering the same reliability as tape of standard thickness. |
|
Superior Tape Winding
SW (Smooth Winding) reel with radial grooves molded on the lower reel flanges, uniform thickness coating technology and high-precision slitter technology for smooth and even tape edges minimize uneven tape winding. |
