Abstract
A video circuit for use with an electronic still camera retrieves a fully-interlaced frame signal during a single field interval from a full-frame imager and provides . . . during the same interval . . . a pair of de-interlaced field signals for recording upon paired tracks on a magnetic disk. By switching the inputs and outputs of a set of clock-driven line delay elements according to variations of the line rate, the frame signal is converted into simultaneously accessible field signals, at the same time accounting for a time base discrepancy that arises due to readout from the imager at double the line rate.
