The first task of the chrominance decoder is therefore to separate the chrominance from the composite video which is carried out by a comb filter (Figure 14.2). The next task is to break up the composite chrominance signal into its two component parts, U and V, each of which must be demodulated separately to obtain the original colour difference signals. The weighted colour difference signals, U and V, are separated from each other by a unit consisting of a delay line (usually known as PAL delay line) and an add\/subtract network. Two separate signals, U and V, are produced, which are fed to their respective demodu- lators, B&#8217;- Y&#8217; and R&#8217;- Y&#8217;. Each demodulator is fed with a 4.43-MHz signal at the correct phase from the reference oscillator and burst channel. Two gamma-corrected colour difference signals, B&#8217;- Y&#8217; and R&#8217;- Y&#8217;, are thus obtained. The third colour difference signal, G&#8217;- Y&#8217;, is obtained from the first two by the G&#8217;- Y&#8217; network as shown. The three colour difference signals, together with luminance signal Y&#8217;, are then fed into the RGB matrix. By adding Y&#8217; to the three colour difference signals, the original gamma-corrected R&#8217;, G&#8217; and B&#8217; colours are reproduced, and after amplifi- cation they are fed directly into the appropriate CRT gun. As a conse- quence of the colour decoding process, the chrominance component suffers a delay with respect to the luminance part. A luminance <i>delay line<\/i><i> <\/i>is therefore inserted into the luminance signal path to ensure that both sig- nals arrive at the matrix at the same time.  <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The chrominance channel must also provide a facility for some or all of the following functions:  <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u25cf Colour kill to turn the chrominance amplifier off during monochrome- only transmission.  <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Television receivers: colour processing 255  <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u25cf Manual saturation (or colour) control to allow the user to change the colour intensity of the display by varying the gain of the chrominance amplifier.  <\/p><div class=\"wolzo6a0dbaef67ec0\" ><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-0778475562755157\"\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<!-- 300x600 television-and-video -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:300px;height:600px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0778475562755157\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"6549443290\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 1201px) {\r\n.wolzo6a0dbaef67ec0 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 993px) and (max-width: 1200px) {\r\n.wolzo6a0dbaef67ec0 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 769px) and (max-width: 992px) {\r\n.wolzo6a0dbaef67ec0 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 768px) {\r\n.wolzo6a0dbaef67ec0 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (max-width: 767px) {\r\n.wolzo6a0dbaef67ec0 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n<\/style>\r\n<div class=\"xbwdh6a0dbaef67dc8\" ><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\tatOptions = {\n\t\t'key' : '0c1eb4c533eaedb7b996f49a5a4983a9',\n\t\t'format' : 'iframe',\n\t\t'height' : 300,\n\t\t'width' : 160,\n\t\t'params' : {}\n\t};\n<\/script>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/www.highperformanceformat.com\/0c1eb4c533eaedb7b996f49a5a4983a9\/invoke.js\"><\/script><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 1201px) {\r\n.xbwdh6a0dbaef67dc8 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 993px) and (max-width: 1200px) {\r\n.xbwdh6a0dbaef67dc8 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 769px) and (max-width: 992px) {\r\n.xbwdh6a0dbaef67dc8 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 768px) {\r\n.xbwdh6a0dbaef67dc8 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (max-width: 767px) {\r\n.xbwdh6a0dbaef67dc8 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n<\/style>\r\n\n<p align=\"justify\">\u25cf Automatic colour control, a.c.c. to vary the gain of the chrominance amplifier.  <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u25cf Burst blanking to turn the amplifier off during the sub-carrier burst.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p align=\"justify\">Failure to do this will result in a greenish striation appearing on the left side of the screen.  <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u25cf Inter-carrier sound rejection.

Where a.c. coupling is used throughout the channel, d.c. clamping is carried out at the RGB drive amplifier stage. However, in modern receivers, d.c. coupling is employed for the early part of the processing system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Colour decoding As stated earlier, the chrominance information forms part of the compos- ite video, from which it has to be separated before demodulation.
