Abstract

A field decision unit capable of solving a problem involved in a conventional field decision unit in that an internal synchronizing signal can be erroneously synchronized with the equalizing pulses of a video signal owing to noise because the output halt period of a phase comparator is set rather short considering that this will facilitate the synchronization of the internal synchronizing signal with the video signal when starting the system or the like, and hence an incorrect field decision can be made. The present field decision unit includes an output controller which sets output halt pulses with a longer output halt period in a particular interval consisting of the synchronizing cycles containing the equalizing pulses and a synchronizing cycle previous thereto, and which employs output halt pulses with a shorter output halt period outside the particular interval as in the conventional system.
