Abstract

The invention presents a dot clock reproducing apparatus for automatically reproducing the dot clock easily, by setting the dot clock frequency of a video signal source, and correcting the phase difference of the dot clock occurring in the transmission route or the like, and also presents a dot clock reproducing method comprising, in dot clock reproduction, a step of sampling at a frequency different from the dot clock of video signal, a step of detecting the aliasing frequency component occurring at this time, and a step of reproducing the dot clock so as not to cause this aliasing frequency component, and as an apparatus employing such method, the invention further provides a dot clock reproducing apparatus comprising A/D converting means for receiving an adjusting signal delivered from a video signal source, and sampling this adjusting signal to convert into a digital signal, PLL means for dividing a specified synchronizing signal and generating a sampling clock for the A/D converting means, frequency analyzing means for analyzing the frequency of the adjusting signal from the output of the A/D converting means, and dividing ratio setting means for controlling the dividing ratio…
