ABSTRACT:
A time coding system of high resolution for a digital audio and video recording system is disclosed. Various methods of structuring: time code for recording are disclosed which enable time code reading at high tape transport speeds to facilitate automatic search/forward and reverse. A time and control code generator for video recording and replay use comprises a pulse generator generating a pulse having a television frame frequency repetition rate. A source of a time code signal is related to the television frame frequency, and comprises data bits representing hours minutes seconds and frames. A pulse position modulation means is coupled to the pulse and in response to the data its representing hours minutes seconds, modulates a trailing edge of the pulse to a first position responsive to the data bits having a logical 1 value and modulates the trailing edge to a second position responsive to the data bits having a logical 0 value. A generating is means coupled to the data bits representing frames and generates a first signal frequency responsive to the frame data bits having a logical 0 value and a second signal frequency responsive to the frame data bits having a logical 1 value. The second frequency is double the first frequency. The first and second frequencies are added symmetrically to the trailing edge to maintain the modulated positions.
