The video circuit for a satellite application consists of a voltage controlled AGC-amplifier, driver for two external de-emphasis networks, followed by a three-stage switch. An additional baseband output is available via a driver. The output signal of the video switch is applied to a video clamping circuit, this clamping circuit removes the energy dispersal signal from the video signal. The clamped signal is applied via a video switch to the SCART-output. Circuit Description
