ABSTRACT:
A digital clamp combines a digitized luminance signal with a DC offset to clamp the back porch portions of the luminance signal to a predetermined IRE level. The clamp generates a reference signal having successive values indicative of successive IRE levels of the back porch portions prior to being clamped. A summer generates successive slice level values indicative of successive averages of the reference signal values and a fixed value. A limiter restricts the successive slice level values to a range of slice levels. A comparator generates a composite synchronizing signal by comparing the luminance signal to the successive slice level values, as limited.
