Abstract

A 2-line YC separation device comprising a delay circuit for delaying a composite input video signal for a horizontal scanning period; a first band-pass filter which receives the composite input video signal; a second band-pass filter which receives the output signal of the delay circuit; a Y-correlation detector which receives the output signal of the band-pass filter; a C-correlation detector which receives the output signal of the band-pass filter; a difference detector for detecting a Y signal differential value; a YL-correlation detector for detecting a Y signal correlation; and an AND circuit for logically ANDing the output signals of the YL-correlation detector and the Y-correlation detector.
