Abstract

An extractor for digital data transmitted at a first determined frequency (f0) through a video channel after a burst of 0s and 1s emitted at a first frequency (f0). A comparator (1) compares the input signal with a threshold level. A threshold level is provided by an up/down counter (12) operating at a frequency (F0) multiple of the first frequency, the up/down counting input of which is connected to the output of the comparator (1), and a digital/analog converter (16) receiving the output of the up/down counter and supplying the threshold level (V.sub.T).
