Abstract
In a digital chrominance signal demodulating device receiving a carrier chrominance signal obtained by digitizing an analog composite video signal, a frequency component near the horizontal frequency of the color subcarrier is extracted, and color-difference signals are output. An identifying circuit forms a selection signal for identifying one of the color-difference signals contained in the carrier chrominance signal, within a color burst signal period, on the basis of a system clock and a horizontal sync signal. A selecting circuit selects the color-difference signals on the basis of the selection signal. The color-difference signals obtained by sampling in accordance with the system clock are kept in phase with the color burst signal. Accordingly, the digital chrominance signal can be demodulated by the use of less expensive digital circuits.
