Abstract

An arrangement for stabilizing a horizontal synchronization signal, serving as an input signal for a phase-locked loop (PLL) for generating a clock signal, by separating the horizontal synchronization signal from a composite synchronization signal including both horizontal and vertical synchronization signals. A horizontal synchronization gate signal is generated for outputting a pulse signal approximately in phase with the horizontal synchronization signal and having at least the pulse width of the horizontal synchronization signal in accordance with the composite synchronization signal and a clock pulse signal having a predetermined frequency. The horizontal synchronization signal is retrieved from the composite synchronization signal in accordance with a logical product when matching the polarity of the horizontal synchronization gate signal with the polarity of the composite synchronization signal.
