Abstract

A video signal clamp involves evaluating the difference between the signal level and the desired clamp level during the back porch interval. A correction signal indicates whether the signal level must be increased or decreased to establish the desired clamp level. Generation of the correction signal involves a median filter algorithm. Any required increase or decrease of the signal level occurs continuously throughout each horizontal line interval.
