What is 100Hz scanning?
top Most TVs have a 50Hz refresh rate. This means that they refresh the interlaced picture 50 times per second. This however can result in a noticeable flicker. 100Hz scanning digitizes each of the two TV fields, and stores them in a series of memory chips. The digitized fields are displayed twice in the same 1/50sec period. In other words, the field frequency is doubled from 50Hz to 100Hz. Progressive scan is a more advanced development of this idea.
