Abstract

A synchronization signal separating circuit for deriving synchronization signals from a composite video signal, PA1 a clamp circuit which clamps the sync chip level of the composite video signal to a reference voltage level, PA1 a detection circuit which detects a voltage of the back porch part of the clamped composite video signal, PA1 a mixing circuit generating intermediate voltage between the reference voltage and the back porch part voltage as a threshold level, and PA1 a separating circuit which derives the synchronization signal from the clamped composite video signal based on the threshold level, thereby the accurate synchronization signal can be obtained by utilizing the abovementioned clamping level at the intermediate voltage.
