COMPENSATION OF TIMING ERRORS IN A COLOR VIDEO SIGNAL

摘要

A device for the compensation of timing errors in a color video signal which is derived from a record carrier, and in which the chrominance information and the luminance information cover two different frequency bands. The chrominance information is applied to a first shift register and the luminance information to a second shift register, the information contained in the upper frequency band being previously transformed to a lower frequency range. The two shift registers receive a clock signal which is derived from the same control signal. The number of elements of which the first shift register consists may be smaller than the number of elements of the second shift register the divisor of the divider stage should then equal the ratio of the number of elements of the two shift registers.
