Image data photographed by a video camera 20 is compressed by a compression and decompression circuit 5, the compressed image data is recorded in an incorporated type semiconductor memory 6 or disk-type memory 13 fixed in the video camera 20 and the recorded image data is transferred to an external recording device 23. Further, the external recording device 23 records the transferred image data in a data storage while it is being compressed. The video camera 20 receives, decompresses and converts into a television signal the compressed image data read by the external recording device 23 in a reproducing operation. A video camera system capable of recording and reproducing long hours of image data by using a video camera having an ultra small size comparable to that of an 8 mm video cassette can be realized by using such a construction.

A video camera in which an output signal from a solid-state image sensor is converted into the corresponding digital signal at the horizontal reading cycle of the output signal, and the digital signal is digital-processed with a first predetermined clock (fs) synchronous with the reading cycle to provide a luminance signal and a color difference signal.

摘要:
An electronic component for high frequency power amplification realizes an improvement in switching spectrum characteristics. The gain of an amplifying NMOS transistor is controlled by a bias voltage on which a bias control voltage is reflected. Further, a threshold voltage compensator compensates for a variation in threshold voltage with variations in the manufacture of the amplifying NMOS transistor. The threshold voltage compensator includes an NMOS transistor formed in the same process specification as the amplifying NMOS transistor and converts a variation in current flowing through the NMOS transistor depending on the variation in the threshold voltage of the amplifying NMOS transistor to its corresponding voltage by a resistor to compensate for the bias voltage. It is thus possible to reduce variations in so-called precharge level brought to fixed output power in a region (0 dBm or less, for example) low in output power.
