Abstract
In a digital video camera unit wherein its CCD outputs an image pickup signal with an odd line and an even line in the 1HD period to convert the image pickup signal to luminance signal and color signal, a line memory portion for separating each line of two image pickup signals existing in the 1HD period to two lines, an address controller and a control circuit for controlling write/read into the line memory portion are provided. At the time of write to the line memory portion, an analog delay amount is absorbed in order to output signals at the same timing as design time upon reading. By changing the write/read frequency with respect to the line memory portion, signals of different frequencies can be processed in a single circuit.
