COMPONENT CONVERSION FORMULA 
The following formula are used in the creation of RGB signals from component signals such as used in RGB to Y, R-Y, B-Y Translators. 
(Y) = 0.299 Red + 0.587 Green + 0.114 Blue 
(R-Y) = 0.500 Red - 0.419 Green - 0.081 Blue 
(B-Y) = 0.500 Blue - 0.331 Green - 0.169 Red 
The following formula are used for the creation of YIQ from RGB 
Y = .3000 Red + .1100 Blue + .5900 Green 
I = .5990 Red - .3217 Blue - .2773 Green 
Q = .2130 Red + .3121 Blue - .5251 Green
