Abstract

A data compander for digital video signals wherein the sampling frequency is locked to the chrominance-subcarrier frequency. The data compander includes the following cascaded subcircuits: a lock-mode-changing filter which changes the lock of the video signals with the chrominance subcarrier into signals whose clock frequency is locked to the line frequency; an (a/b)-decimation filter, where a, b are integers, and a is less than b; a first peaking filter; a utilization circuit for the line-locked signals; a (b/a)-interpolation filter; a lock-mode-reversing filter which changes the lock of the signals with the line frequency; and a second peaking filter.
