ABSTRACT:
A digital amplitude and phase detector for detecting the amplitude and phase of a color burst digital signal used in television systems is provided. The detector comprises a phase lock loop circuit for detecting the phase of said color burst signal and for generating a synchronous constant amplitude sinusoidal signal; multiplying circuit for generating a product signal by multiplying the color burst signal by the constant amplitude sinusoidal signal, wherein said product signal has a high-frequency component and a low-frequency component having an amplitude substantially proportional to that of the color burst signal; and low pass filter circuit coupled to said multiplying circuit for filtering said product signal such that the high-frequency component is substantially suppressed relative to that of the low-frequency component. A video encoder using the digital amplitude and phase detector is also provided.
