Problems solved by technology

However, Bohm's method requires that the sync spike level of the horizontal sync signal of the input video signal should be within a relatively narrow range
Therefore, Bohm's method is not suitable for situations where the amplitude of the horizontal synchronization signal varies greatly

Abstract

A method for deriving a synchronisation signal (35) from a video signal comprises tracking the blanking level (107) of the video signal with first and second slice level signals (26, 27) and tracking the sync tip level (110) of the horizontal sync signal (109) of the video signal with third and fourth slice level signals (28, 29) for determining the blanking level (107) and the sync tip level (110). A value for an intermediate slice level signal (30) is computed from the first, second, third and fourth slice level signals (26, 27, 28, 29) so that the value of the intermediate slice level signal (30) lies approximately halfway between the blanking level (107) and the sync tip level (110). The video signal is compared with the intermediate slice level signal (30), and the synchronisation signal (35) is prepared from a logic signal by transitioning the logic signal from one of the logic high and logic low levels to the other of the logic high and logic low levels, each time the video signal transitions across the intermediate slice level signal (30).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and a circuit for deriving a synchronization signal from a video signal and, in particular, to a method and a circuit for deriving a synchronization signal from a video signal allowing the horizontal synchronization signal to be recovered from the video signal. Background technique [0002] Methods and circuits for recovering synchronization signals from video signals are known. This method and circuit can be modified to recover the synchronization signal sequentially or simultaneously with efficient processing and decoding of the video signal. However, the complete recovery of the sync signal sequentially with efficient processing and decoding of the video signal generally prevents fast synchronization of the video signal. Therefore, in order to minimize synchronization time, it is known to pass the video signal in parallel through two circuits, one of which performs efficient signal processing and decoding o...
