In a memory control apparatus for providing various video display functions by means of a video memory into which video data constituting successive units, such as, frames or fields, or video information are written at repeatedly changing write addresses while concurrently reading out the data from repeatedly changing read-out addresses; the video memory is provided with at least four memory areas each having a capacity to store one of the units of video information, impending overtaking of the write and read-out addresses relative to each other is detected, and, in response to such detection, the one of the memory areas in which the data is being written or read-out is changed so as to maintain a separation of the write and read-out addresses sufficient to ensure avoidance of overtaking and consequent disturbance of the displayed image.

A synchronous detector adapted to detect a modulated information signal, such as a video IF signal. The modulated information signal is provided in the form of a vestigial sideband signal. A band-pass filter including a tuned circuit tuned to the frequency of the carrier on which the information signal is modulated has a pass band which is less than the frequency spectrum of the vestigial sideband signal so as to limit the frequency spectrum of the signal passed by the filter to a double sideband signal. A limiter is coupled to the band-pass filter to receive the double sideband signal and for deriving a switching carrier therefrom, the frequency of the switching carrier being equal to the frequency of the carrier on which the information signal is modulated. An emitter-follower circuit is connected between the band-pass filter and the limiter so as to couple the double sideband signal from the filter to the limiter. A multiplier circuit has first input terminals coupled to the limiter for receiving the derived switching carrier and second input terminals for receiving the modulated information signal, whereby the modulated information signal is multiplied with the switching carrier to obtain the information signal.

An amplifier provides a complete video and sound I.F. signal to a synchronous detector switching circuit, and the switching signal to be applied to the switching circuit is obtained from the same amplifier by connecting a grounded base stage, with its emitter impedance, in series with the amplifier load. The grounded base stage has a load tuned to the I.F. carrier frequency, and the filtered signal from the grounded base is the signal applied as the switching signal to the synchronous detector switching circuit.

A time-division bit number circuit that comprises a bit number expansion system and/or a bit number reduction system. The bit number expansion system converts an N bits signal to a 2N bits signal, while the bit number reduction system converts the 2N bits signal to the N bits signal where N is an integer. Thus, according to the time-division bit amount circuit, the number of memory can be saved, the area of circuit can be reduced and the pattern area of substrate can be reduced.

A dark signal component below a predetermined level of a video signal is varied such that a dark peak level is made to coincide with a pedestal level by feedback control. According to this configuration, a signal component toward a white level side above the predetermined level is not changed by dark restoration, thus obtaining stable color reproduction and stable brightness which are not affected by the dark restoring operation.

A television receiver has an automatic fine tuning circuit with a first phase-locked loop including a first low pass filter and a synchronous video detector with a second phase-locked loop including a second low pass filter. The cut off frequency of the first low pass filter is selected lower than the cut-off frequency of the second low pass filter, thereby enabling a stable operation of two phase-locked loops simultaneously.
