PURPOSE:To output a title picture on the entire pattern by writing an input video signal into a memory means as a digitized picture data, synthesizing the picture data read from the memory means with a picture signal at the outside of the title picture depending on the capacity of the memory means and forming the title picture signal. CONSTITUTION:In case of registering a title picture, a picture data being a digitized input video signal is written in a memory means 13. A title circuit 12 in the event of inserting the title picture, forms a picture signal at the outside of the title picture depending on the capacity of the memory means 13, synthesizes the picture signal with the picture data read from the memory means 13 to form and output the title picture signal forming one title picture. Thus, it is possible to output the title picture on the entire screen.

PURPOSE: To simplify the mechanism and operation of a tape drive system and to improve the accuracy of joints by synchronizing a recording signal system with a control pulse reproduced from a tape in case of joint image pickup. CONSTITUTION: In case of the video recording mode, a generating circuit 40 generates a vertical synchronizing signal Sv and a horizontal synchronizing signal Sh, they are fed to an image pickup tube 21 and a control pulse CTL having a frequency is generated and fed to a head 16 through a recording side contact R of a switch circuit 36 and recording at the edge of a tape 1. In bringing the mode to the video recording pause mode by turning on a switch 51, the head 16 reproduces the control pulse CTL, which is fed to a control circuit 50 via the switch 36 and a reproducing amplifier 37. Then the control circuit 50 checks the period of the CTL and confirms that the tape running is stabilized, then a reset pulse synchronously with the CTL is given to the generating circuit 40.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a phase synchronization circuit for reducing a stationary phase error and a clock data recovery circuit.SOLUTION: The output signal line of a charge pump is separated in accordance with charge currents and discharge currents to reduce a stationary phase error which becomes a problem in the case of accelerating a clock data recovery circuit. Furthermore, a loop filter is configured so as to independently act with respect to the charge currents and the discharge currents. Furthermore, a voltage control oscillator is also configured such that an oscillation frequency is controlled by receiving a first voltage signal based on the charge currents and a second voltage signal based on the discharge currents.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To display images with excellent image quality and to quickly record the photographing images of a desired resolution by simple constitution. SOLUTION: In the case of obtaining a still image of an object image by the desired resolution in which a picture element number is less than the effective picture element number of an image pickup element 15, a zoom driving circuit 13 is controlled by a CPU 60 so as to reduce and image-form the object image in the area of the image pickup element 15 corresponding to the desired resolution. The signals of the area where the object image is reduced and image- formed are selected in a memory control part 51 from image data signals Dyc obtained by processing the signals from the element 15 and the signals of the still image of the desired resolution are recorded in a memory part 38. In the setting of a photographing area, the object image is reduced corresponding to the display picture element number of a display part 30 and image-formed on the element 15. The signals of the area where the object image is image- formed are selected in the memory control part 51, video signals SVBout are generated in a video interface part 53 by using the selected signals Dycd and finder images are displayed at the display part 30.

The operational lever 42 is made of resin and has almost circular cylindrical shape, and an operational part 42b is projected and unitedly formed in a part of outer side of a circular part 42a, and an cylindrical axis part 42c into which an axis part 40b of the recording button 40 is inserted is unitedly formed in the down side of bottom plane of the trunk 42a. Consequently, the operational part of the operational lever can be used as a finger rest during image recording.
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To transfer data surely by sending a start signal from the first microcomputer to the second microcomputer and sending back clocks from the second microcomputer to the first microcomputer and transferring data from the first microcomputer to the second microcomputer. CONSTITUTION:In case of data transfer from the first microcomputer A to the second microcomputer B, a start bit which falls from the high level to the low level at a timing t1 is sent from the microcomputer A to the microcom puter B to report the start of data transfer. Then, the microcomputer B detects the start of transfer and sends a clock to the microcomputer A at a timing t2. When receiving the clock after sending the start bit, the microcomputer A judges that the microcomputer B detects the start of transfer, and the micro computer A sends the first data, for example, the high level immediately. After reading this data H at a timing t3, the microcomputer sends the next clock to the microcomputer A at a timing t4. hereafter, data are sent and read and clocks are sent repeatedly at timings t5, t6- similarly.
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To select a logical output in a resetting period optionally by connecting an additional circuit which has high output impedance during the resetting period to the output side of the output port register of a logical output impedance IC. CONSTITUTION:When a reset pulse RS is supplied to a terminal 6 after power-on operation, a data signal DT is supplied from a computer 1 to the input register 3 of a latch IC2 for extension, but it is not transferred to the output register 4. The Q output of an FF circuit 9 is on a level L, so the respective NAND circuits 10 and NAD circuits 11 of logical circuits 8 (i=0-n-1) of the additional circuit 7 are closed and the outputs of the circuits 10 and 11 are on the levels H and L respectively. Therefore, MOSFETs 12 and 13 are both off and high output impedance is obtained at each terminal T3; and terminals connected to a power source B through a resistance 11 or grounded are on the levels H and L respectively and terminals in a floating state sill have the high impedance. Output terminals 10n and 10n+1 are set on the level H or L optionally.
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To obtain tolerance of the number of pins by controlling the cutting off of signals, by mixing and applying a color signal and DC control signal to either differential amplifier. CONSTITUTION:To the base of transistor Tr3 of either one of differential amplifiers 3 and 4, a mixed signal of a color signal and DC control signal is supplied, and a constant potential voltage is to the input of the other Tr4; and this DC control signal when containing a color signal has a fixed voltage and when no color signal has a voltage below a fixed voltage, and constant-potential signals are extracted from differential amplifiers 35 and 36 regardless of the existence of the color signal. Then, a signal relating to signals of differential amplifiers 3 and 4 is supplied to the base of the Tr35 of either differential amplifier 3 or 4, and a constant potential is to the base of the other Tr36, so that amplifiers 35 and 36 will output signals with a constant potential constantly.
