Abstract
A time base correcting apparatus for reducing hindrance to a carrier chrominance signal due to clock jitter, when a sampling clock is generated by a digital circuit. In the time base correcting apparatus, a video signal is sampled with a clock synchronized with the video signal to be written to an FIFO memory. The video signal is then read out therefrom with a fixed clock to remove time base changes of the video signal. The fixed read clock is generated by multiplying two different frequency signals together, where one of the signals has a lower frequency approximately equal to (n+1/4) f (where n is an arbitrary integer, and f is a horizontal sync frequency) and using one of the resultant sidebands obtained through use of a bandpass filter. The read clock frequency is separated by 1/2 f from the other sideband frequency to reduce hindrance between the signals, and in turn to reduce viewable hindrances during the display of the video signal read out from the FIFO.
