Thank you to anyone who has already donated - your generous donations helped make three months of treatment possible.

My brother Nate continues to fight stage IV Hodgkin's lymphoma. He's just 31, with a wife and baby girl. They have no active income (since he's been unable to return to work), no insurance, and cannot afford the treatment he needs. Nate and his family need your help. Please consider a donation, every dollar helps. Thanks.

     -- Visible scan region: This is the part you actually see. 
        0.3V shows up as black, 1V as white, everything in between is greyscale. The visible region lasts for 51.5us
    
     -- The "Front Porch": A transition region of 0.3V for 1.4us before 
        the hsync pulse of the next line, off the right edge of the TV
    
     -- Vertical sync (vsync) pulse: Lines 243-262 of each frame (off the bottom of the TV) 
        start with 0.3V for 4.7us, and the rest is 0V. This tells the TV to prepare for a new frame. 
        Think of it as just 0V with an inverted sync pulse
