ABSTRACT:
To provide an image which is matched with an aspect ratio of a screen of a display unit by compressing and enlarging the whole of the image to a desired size. A video signal is sequentially written into a field memory in response to a write clock from an input terminal. A clock generating circuit supplies the field memory with a read clock having a frequency which is about 4/3 times as high as that of the write clock. A vertical enlargement control circuit reads a video signal from the field memory with a line period corresponding to a magnification factor and inhibits writing to a one-line memory with the same period to provide a line delayed output for an output signal from the field memory. A vertical interpolating circuit generates a scanning line signal by an interpolation operation in accordance with a control signal from the vertical enlargement control circuit.
