ABSTRACT:
A synchronization (sync) separation system and method quickly and accurately generate a sync signal from an analog video signal by using feedback control. The system comprises a voltage generator for generating first and second reference voltages V.sub.REF1, V.sub.REF2. A first comparator compares the analog video signal to the first reference voltage V.sub.REF1 and generates a shift control signal, A voltage shift mechanism receives the shift control signal and adjusts the analog video signal so that the sync level of the analog video signal converges toward the first reference voltage V.sub.REF1. A second comparator compares the analog video signal with the second reference voltage V.sub.REF2 and generates the sync signal indicative of when the analog video signal exhibits the sync level. Preferably, the voltage shift mechanism introduces a continuous current i.sub.c into the analog video signal. Moreover, the second comparator is an ECL differential line receiver in the preferred embodiment for providing a sync signal which is compatible with ECL.
