Abstract

A servo system for use in a video signal recording and playback apparatus to control rotation of an electric motor which drives a recording medium for the composite video signal. A reference signal generator generates a reference signal having a period equal to an integral multiple of the horizontal synchronizing period of the composite video signal. A servo control circuit controls the rotation of the electric motor in response to any phase difference between the reference signal and a rotational speed signal sensed from and corresponding to the speed of the electric motor.
