In a method of demodulating an analog chrominance signal (C), digital quadrature signals are generated (DPA, SIN ROM, COS ROM) for demodulating (MUL DAC U, MUL DAC V) the analog chrominance signal (C) to obtain analog demodulated color difference signals (U, V). A digital phase error signal is furnished (ΣΔ mod) from at least one (V) of the analog demodulated color difference signals (U, V). The digital phase error signal is digitally filtered (DLF) to obtain a phase control signal (K) for the digital quadrature signals generation (DPA, SIN ROM, COS ROM).
摘要:
A PLL circuit which outputs an oscillation clock signal synchronous with a reference clock includes a phase lock detector for detecting if the oscillation clock signal is synchronous with the reference clock. If the phase lock detector detects a phase difference between the oscillation clock signal and the reference clock, a charge pump circuit is used to alter the oscillation clock signal so that the oscillation signal is placed back in sync with the reference clock. The charge pump selects one of a ground potential and a power supply potential in response to a comparison result of the oscillation clock signal and the reference clock. The charge pump pulls a constant current to ground from an output terminal of the charge pump circuit when the ground potential is selected and supplies a constant current to the output terminal of the charge pump circuit when the power supply potential is selected, thereby producing an output which alternately repeats the ground potential and the power supply potential.

A digital TV receiver includes an apparatus for generating a skew corrected clock. The apparatus consists of a fixed frequency, free running oscillator (22) for producing a signal (FFOS) having a frequency which is a fixed integer multiple K of the desired nominal frequency of the skew-corrected clock signal, and a divide-by-K circuit (30) which is reset once every horizontal line. The divide-by-K circuit comprises a divide-by-m circuit connected in series with a flip-flop (50), with said divide-by-m circuit (40) being reset by a first control signal (FCS) once every horizontal line. The apparatus additionally includes means (Fig. 2/SCS) for preventing the output of the flip-flop (50) from changing while the divide-by-m circuit is reset in response to the first control signal (FCS). In accordance with another aspect of this invention, the state of the divide-by-K circuit (30) is captured (150/SES) and saved for use in a chroma demodulation apparatus (Fig. 6) just before it is reset.
摘要:
Le système décrit génère des impulsions de synchronisation à haute fréquence qui sont automatiquement synchronisées sur un signal vidéo externe. Lors de la présence d'une salve de référence dans le signal vidéo externe, les impulsions de synchronisation sont synchronisées sur ladite salve. Cependant en l'absence de cette salve de référence, les impulsions de synchronisation sont synchronisées sur les impulsions de synchronisation horizontale du signal vidéo externe. Cette opération s'effectue grâce à la présence d'une boucle à verrouillage de phase qui comporte un oscillateur marchant librement à la fréquence de base désirée, ainsi qu'un détecteur de phase pour comparer la différence de phase entre une portion sélectionnée du signal de référence de la boucle à verrouillage de phase et une portion sélectionnée de soit la salve de référence soit les impulsions de synchronisation horizontale.
摘要:
A phase locked loop is provided, which may be used in digital systems having clock signal frequency instabilities. The PLL has an analog oscillator (342) the frequency of which is determined by an analog control signal. The oscillatory signal is digitised (344) and phase-compared (338) with a digital reference signal, the digital output of the phase comparator being converted (340) to an analog signal to provide the oscillator control signal. In an application of the invention to a digital television receiver having a line-locked clock, the phase locked loop (350) regenerates two quadrature phase related subcarrier signals (COS,SIN) that are used to synchronously demodulate the chrominance signal components (CB) of the composite video signals into two color information signals (I,Q). The analog voltage-controlled oscillator (342) of the phase locked loop (350) generates a signal that is independent of any frequency instability in the line-locked clock signal. The analog-to-digital converter (344) digitizes this signal to provide one of the subcarrier signals, from which is generated the quadrature subcarrier signal, for example from a read-only memory (348). The two color information signals (I,Q) are obtained by multiplying (332,334) the chrominance signals by the first and second subcarrier signals. The phase comparator (336) determines the phase of the vector sum of the two color information signals and compares this against a desired phase value to generate a phase difference signal. The phase difference signal is filtered (338) and applied to the digital-to-analog converter (340) whichprovides the frequency control signal for the analog oscillator (342). A tracking filter (346) may be inserted at the output port of the analog-to-digital converter (344) to allow its quantization resolution to be reduced without affecting the performance of the phase locked loop.
