摘要:
A system in which drooping of the video levels due to leakage currents and proper DC bias level is addressed by providing a charge into the video signal to offset the leakage currents and to provide DC bias. To determine the leakage current level, measurements are made measuring the voltages of the syncs and the blanking intervals. To determine the DC bias, a measurement is made of the sync. Over a series of video lines these measurements are averaged. If the average is below the desired level, a charge is provided via a current source to the incoming signal. By having the current source provide charge during each video line, droop is reduced and the proper DC bias is provided.

A video decoder in which the video source clock is generated entirely in the digital domain is disclosed herein. By creating a virtual version of the source clock in a numeric oscillator, the amount of noise in the system is substantially reduced. Furthermore, by transferring the digitized video signal, sampled with an asynchronous crystal clock, into the source clock domain, the accuracy of the brightness (amplitude) and color (phase) information can be greatly enhanced.
摘要:
Video decoder systems in which both the analog-to-digital converter and the composite decoder are driven by the stable sample clock, such as a crystal source. The outputs of the composite decoder are provided to a source rate converter, having an output that is provided to a digital output formatter. The digital output formatter is driven by the output clock, which may be locked to the source clock if desired. The output clock is developed by a clock generator which may be one of several different types, including a fractional N synthesizer, a direct digital synthesizer or a puncture clock.
