The circuit shown here should have a lot of  applications.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, the &lt;b&gt;distribution amplifier&lt;/b&gt; takes the &lt;b&gt;composite video signal&lt;/b&gt; from a &lt;b&gt;video player (VCR)&lt;/b&gt; or a &lt;b&gt;video generator&lt;/b&gt; (analogue output) and buffers it in such a way that it can be simultaneously applied to up to five different &lt;b&gt;video equipment&lt;/b&gt; inputs, like monitors, TV sets, other VCRs and so on. For example, in a hall, the image produced by a &lt;b&gt;central DVD player&lt;/b&gt; can be shown on five different TV screens with the sound reproduced through a &lt;b&gt;separate amplifier&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/Sl77qdc_umI/AAAAAAAAB3M/K7wwlrN_JS4/s1600-h/Video+Distribution-Amplifier-Schematic.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/Sl77qdc_umI/AAAAAAAAB3M/K7wwlrN_JS4/s320/Video+Distribution-Amplifier-Schematic.jpg" title="Video Distribution Amplifier Schematic" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The circuit is based on the type EL2020 (or similar) operational amplifier which is marled by large bandwidth. The &lt;b&gt;LL2020 amplifies&lt;/b&gt; the video signal applied to the input stage, with a gain adjustment range of ±6 dB. Output transistor Q1, a 2N3866, applies the &lt;b&gt;video signal&lt;/b&gt; to the five outputs designed to drive loads with 75-Ω impedance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Although all current &lt;i&gt;flat-screen receivers&lt;/i&gt; have very comprehensive facilities and include digital inputs via &lt;b&gt;DVI&lt;/b&gt; or &lt;b&gt;HDMI&lt;/b&gt; connectors and analogue inputs in &lt;b&gt;S-video format&lt;/b&gt;, this was unfortunately not the case with the &lt;i&gt;CRT televisions&lt;/i&gt; that were being sold only a few short years ago, which were more often than not fitted with only composite video inputs, either directly or via their &lt;i&gt;SCART socket&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The &lt;b&gt;s-video converter&lt;/b&gt; we are suggesting building, very simple since it only uses two transistor, lets you convert any &lt;b&gt;S-amplivideo signal&lt;/b&gt; into a &lt;i&gt;composite signal&lt;/i&gt; and so will perhaps enable you to give a new lease of life to your old CRT television.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/Slqp_0pXK8I/AAAAAAAAB1M/ThXSz3N6LZU/s1600-h/S-Video-Converter-Circuit-Schematic.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/Slqp_0pXK8I/AAAAAAAAB1M/ThXSz3N6LZU/s320/S-Video-Converter-Circuit-Schematic.jpg" title="S-Video Converter Circuit Schematic" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The principle of &lt;b&gt;S-video&lt;/b&gt; is very simple, as it merely consists of carrying the chrominance and luminance information, which form the basis of all colour video signals, over separate channels. In &lt;b&gt;composite video&lt;/b&gt;, by contrast, both these signals are combined over a single path, and the resulting inevitable interferences between them degrade the appearance of the image being reproduced. Fortunately, the components of an &lt;b&gt;S-video signal&lt;/b&gt;, whether in the &lt;i&gt;SECAM&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;PAL&lt;/i&gt;, or even&lt;i&gt; NTSC&lt;/i&gt; standards, are almost the same as the ones found in a composite signal of the same standard. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So it’s going to be relatively simple to combine them in order to reconstitute the &lt;i&gt;composite video&lt;/i&gt; signal that our CRT television is expecting to see. In order for this recombination to be correct, there is just one constraining factor to be taken into account, concerning the respective levels of the components, as the chrominance one is only half the amplitude of the luminance one.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our circuit picks up the component signals on the two standardised pins of the &lt;i&gt;4-pin mini-DIN socket &lt;/i&gt;normally used for S-video (also known as an Ushiden socket), taking care to maintain the 75 Ω impedance via R1 and R2. The mixing of the two signals is then taken care of by R3, R4, and P1; the latter lets you adjust the respective levels of the two component signals exactly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The two transistors that come next are wired in such a way as to create a &lt;b&gt;wideband amplifier&lt;/b&gt;, the gain of which is set to 3 by t0he ratio between R8 and R9. Combining the input components has had the effect of dividing the overall amplitude of the video signal by a factor of 1.5, and the &lt;i&gt;output impedance matching &lt;/i&gt;resistor is going to divide the signal in half again (once the signal is terminated at the input of the destination equipment), all of which adds up to a total attenuation of 2×1.5, corresponding to the make-up gain we have designed into our amplifier. In this way, inserting our converter into a video chain will have no effect on the level of the signals passing through it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &lt;i&gt;composite video output&lt;/i&gt; passes via 75 Ω resistor R11 in order to match the circuit’s output impedance to the input impedance of the composite video input on the device to which it is connected. At both input and output, note the parallel combinations of C1 / C2 and C3 / C4, so that the video signals, with a frequency range extending from a few tens of Hz to several MHz, can pass through these capacitors under the best possible conditions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we want to avoid unwanted colour or brightness variations, it is vital to power the circuit from a stabilized supply, achieved here by using a standard 3-pin regulator IC to provide a 5 V rail for the circuit. So the project can be powered from a ‘plug-top’ mains unit that gives 9 to 12 V at 100 mA or so. Diode D1 is there just to protect against any accidental inversion of the PSU polarity that might possibly occur.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The circuit itself is very easy and construction shouldn’t present any difficulties. It can be built on the &lt;b&gt;PCB&lt;/b&gt; we suggest [1] or on a piece of &lt;b&gt;prototyping board&lt;/b&gt;, but in either case, we recommend using f&lt;b&gt;ibreglass board&lt;/b&gt;, because of the high frequencies involved in the &lt;b&gt;video signals&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SlqqCLyNTDI/AAAAAAAAB1U/HidJthjAa6c/s1600-h/S-Video-Converter-Circuit-Board.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SlqqCLyNTDI/AAAAAAAAB1U/HidJthjAa6c/s200/S-Video-Converter-Circuit-Board.jpg" title="S-Video Converter Circuit Board" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If you want your converter to follow the proper standard in terms of connectors, you’ll want to use a female &lt;i&gt;4-pin mini DIN S-video socket&lt;/i&gt; for the input and a &lt;i&gt;female phono socket&lt;/i&gt; (a yellow one, for the purists!) for the output. As for the power supply, all you’ll need is a simple jack to suit the mains unit you’ve chosen.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SlqqEAgMjuI/AAAAAAAAB1c/Jxok1VqV-m8/s1600-h/S-Video-Converter-Circuit-Parts-Lists.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SlqqEAgMjuI/AAAAAAAAB1c/Jxok1VqV-m8/s200/S-Video-Converter-Circuit-Parts-Lists.jpg" title="S-Video Converter Circuit Parts List" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The &lt;i&gt;circuit&lt;/i&gt; should work right away, and all that you then have to do is to adjust the preset P1 so as to obtain a composite video signal that gives correct contrast and saturation on the &lt;i&gt;TV receiver&lt;/i&gt; you are using.

Ideally the transmitter should use CW mode and have its 'key' down but an FM rig will work just as well if the microphone is disconnected and the PTT switch is closed. The only reason for disconnecting the microphone is to prevent sounds from it frequency modulating the carrier.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SXcxaAVivOI/AAAAAAAABlI/pWnq6p7Lnkc/s1600-h/AM_Video_Modulator_Schematic.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SXcxaAVivOI/AAAAAAAABlI/pWnq6p7Lnkc/s320/AM_Video_Modulator_Schematic.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
All the design does is interrupt the supply current to the power amplifier and possibly also the driver stage of the transmitter. It allows the depth of modulation to be set and the quiescent PA current. Setting the current is important because almost all small transmitters run their output stages flat out but for AM, the power needs to both decrease and increase above mean level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the unit only requires three connections to the transmitter, it can be mounted outside the rig if preferred. Connections A and B are the video input and should be fed through a screened 75R impedance cable. Connection C goes to the existing PA supply line and connection E goes to the PA stage(s). If SW1 is closed the rig essentially returns to its previous functionality. Connection D is the 0V ground to the negative side of the rig's supply.&lt;br /&gt;
Setting up is quite easy:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the switch closed, make sure the rig behaves normally. Open the switch and check that adjusting RV2 makes the rig's output power vary. It should go from near normal down to almost nothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apply a standard 1 Volt p-p video signal across A and B, a camera can be used if one is to hand. Start with RV1 set to mid-position and while monitoring on a TV receiver, adjust RV2 until a locked picture can be seen. Adjusting too far one way will cause the sync pulses to compress and the picture will tear or roll, going too far the other way will cause white areas to smear, looking rather like an over-exposed photograph. Set it half way between these points.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now adjust RV1 for optimum contrast, you will find the controls interact slightly so it might be necessary to adjust RV2 again to clean the picture up. When set correctly a solid, fully contrasted picture should be seen.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Read more for description and circuit diagram.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SXcsyFhiTmI/AAAAAAAABk4/o78bjgcttxY/s1600-h/Video_Mixer_Circuit_Diagram.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SXcsyFhiTmI/AAAAAAAABk4/o78bjgcttxY/s320/Video_Mixer_Circuit_Diagram.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A PC board which uses two GT4123 mixers, two GB4551 back-porch clamps and a GX4314, 4x1 video switch is available from GENNUM. This board can be used to gain  experience in using these devices in a simple Effects Generator application.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Figure 5 shows the circuit of this board which contains the video signal paths but does not include the control circuitry needed to perform the various functions such as a KEY, WIPE, RAMP or FADE. These control signals are generated from other circuitry using standard logic gates, monostable multivibrators and comparators.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The two video signals (VIDEO 1 and VIDEO 2) are applied to the GB4551 back-porch clamps via 0.1 mF capacitors C1 and C2. These inputs must be suitably terminated with 75 W resistors. The VIDEO 2 signal must also be applied to a sync separator&lt;br /&gt;
circuit in order to produce a negative going back-porch pulse used by the GB4551s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The clamped output from the first GB4551 feeds the V INA input (pin 5) of the first GT4123 mixer. It is also used to drive a comparator in order to produce a luminance key signal. The V INB input (pin 7) of this mixer is fed from the second GB4551.&lt;br /&gt;
Both of these clamped video signals are applied to inputs of the GX4314, 4x1 video switch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By linearly varying the voltage on pin 3 of the GT4123, a smooth A/B mix can be achieved and a resultant signal appears at the output (pin 1). The voltage on pin 3 can also be controlled by a chroma or luminance key signal or by an appropriate horizontal or vertical wipe waveform. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only restriction on the control signal is that the peak to peak amplitude should be 1 volt centred around 0.5 volts.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SQMTNy_sUAI/AAAAAAAABdU/2-vdOaAV--o/s1600-h/Video_Signal_Amplifier_Circuit.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SQMTNy_sUAI/AAAAAAAABdU/U-ntpQHuqOc/s320-R/Video_Signal_Amplifier_Circuit.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The video signal amplifier will also make possible to record from one video to two others and at the same time have a monitor connected to check what you are recording. The amplifier is also very useful if the video recorder is far from the monitor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SQMTQBzNixI/AAAAAAAABdc/1sXntxFr8DM/s1600-h/Video_Signal_Amplifier_PCB.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SQMTQBzNixI/AAAAAAAABdc/CqCMjKoqJ7A/s320-R/Video_Signal_Amplifier_PCB.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The circuit needs a 12 VDC power supply and it is much better if it is a stabilised one like the circuit printed elsewhere in the instructions.&lt;br /&gt;

The circuit integrates (i.e., sums) the input-voltage signal over a defined period of time. Based on an op-amp, the ideal circuit is shown in Figure 3. The factor –(1/RC) is constant, so the resulting output is inverted and proportional to the sum of the integrated values (i.e., proportional to the average of the signal in the integrated period of time). This is all it takes to “compress” the analog video signal.&lt;div class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SG0DaTCfInI/AAAAAAAAA8c/UcXYLU2UIW4/s1600-h/2706015Fig4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SG0DaTCfInI/AAAAAAAAA8c/UcXYLU2UIW4/s320/2706015Fig4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218831293514457714" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although it seems complicated at first sight, it should be fairly simple by now (see Figure 4).  The integrator is implemented by a National Semiconductor LM6134B, a fast, rail-to-rail, single-power supply op-amp (U3). The output should then be quickly converted to digital because the input changes very fast. Analog Devices’s AD9280 ADC (U1) with 32 Msps was selected so a 50-ns capture could be performed. The AD9280 was configured for 1 to 2 V of input to use the internal 2-V reference. A 1-V reference was obtained with U3:D. To prepare the input for this range, the signal was inverted with the op-amp U3:A and clamped just less than 1 V with U3:B (see Figure 2). Just before the integration, the video was inverted under 1 V. The integrator was designed to output a 1-V signal when a ground-referenced, fully saturated video signal was input in 4.3-µs intervals. Note that the integrator is offset at 1 V. So, after signal integration, the ADC will receive a signal that is from 1 to 2 V as required. The integration capacitor C12 is a low-leakage metalized polyester film type. R8 is a metal film resistor, also a 1% part. To reset the integrator, a 74HC4066 analog switch (U4) is used. It is controlled by the ATmega88 through the INT_ENABLE signal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SG0DOx8Qd-I/AAAAAAAAA8U/B7cFMdcnN2E/s1600-h/2706015_p2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SG0DOx8Qd-I/AAAAAAAAA8U/B7cFMdcnN2E/s320/2706015_p2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218831095651399650" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The video frame start is detected through the INT0 interrupt when the odd/even output of U2 changes. By using the odd/even output instead of the vertical synchronization output, the same pin can be used to determine if it is an even or odd frame. The video-line start is detected using the composite synchronization output of U2, which is connected to the AVR’s INT1 input.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The video output block performs the video highlighting. It is a transistor-based video amplifier that increases the gain when its enable signal is asserted low. Highlighting is used to show where a movement has occurred in the previous frame. It also gives you feedback on the blocks that will be ignored while executing the masking commands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only digital components in the design are the ATmega88 (U5), which has 8 KB of flash memory and 1 KB of RAM, a 20-MHz clock, and an RS-232-level converter (U6). The ATmega88, with its versatile instruction set, was key to developing this project. The generous 32 registers, bit-manipulation instructions, and word-pointer registers allowed the integration algorithm to fit in 4.7 µs, where the next sample should be captured. The software was developed in assembler to achieve the large optimizations required. I used AVR Studio 4 as the developing and testing environment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The circuit requires a regulated 5-V power supply for the analog and digital circuits. A single regulator can be used for both the analog and digital parts, provided that the signals are well filtered, and there is a single point of contact between the ground rails. Take a look at the motion-sensor prototype in Photo 2.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.circuitcellar.com/archives/viewable/Aparicio203/4.html"&gt;Source&lt;/a&gt;: Copyright &lt;span class="style10"&gt;Naubert Aparicio&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2622929902778607189-2310392545619947830?l=videocircuit.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Video switchers make it possible to connect more than one device to the same input without the need for changing out the wires every time you want to switch equipment.&lt;div class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;RF Modulators&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RF modulators are useful devices for people who own televisions with RF/coaxial-only inputs because without the RF modulator there would be no way to connect a DVD player or video game console to the television. All RF modulators require an external power supply.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With rare exception, DVD players and video game consoles connect to televisions via S-video or composite video cables. They also require an additional audio connection, usually a RCA stereo cable. Obviously, these types of connections are not possible on a television that only supports a coaxial cable. When plugging these devices into a RF modulator, the end result is a conversion of the S-Video or composite and audio signal into one RF signal, which means your DVD player and video game console will now work on your RF-only television.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Video Switchers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A video switcher is a great product for people who own a television that has only one composite video or S-Video input, but want to connect more than one device to it. Usually, people without a video switcher would have to disconnect one device and connect the other to get use of the device of choice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, those owning a video switcher could plug both devices into the video switcher, which would then plug into the television. The video switcher has buttons on the front that are married to the connection ports on the back. By plugging both devices into the video switcher, a person would only have to press a button to open the signal path for the device of choice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a great tool for people who own a products like a DVD player, video game console and digital camcorder. Most video switchers are passive, which means they don't require external power.

The high input impedance Darlington amplifier and the small series coupling capacitor combine to achieve an excellent low-frequency response and a clamping function with very rapid response time. A three terminal voltage regulator sets the clamping level to 8 volts.&lt;div class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SF5jgSmBKII/AAAAAAAAAoU/yWTgAN-d91A/s1600-h/modulator1.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SF5jgSmBKII/AAAAAAAAAoU/yWTgAN-d91A/s400/modulator1.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5214714824939874434" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The clamped video is then level shifted through a zener diode and applied to a single video amplifier stage. A PNP transistor in the collector circuit functions as a constant current source for the video amplifier. The use of a constant current source rather than a collector load resistor in the video amplifier results in very high voltage gain with nearly rail-to-rail output voltage capability. Negative feedback around the video amplifier reduces the gain to the amount required, while it increases the bandwidth, flattens the frequency response, increases the linearity, and reduces any distortion products to extremely low levels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SF5jEI8jALI/AAAAAAAAAn8/26GB-chEIIQ/s1600-h/videomod_layout.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SF5jEI8jALI/AAAAAAAAAn8/26GB-chEIIQ/s320/videomod_layout.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5214714341313675442" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;A 2N3904 in the base circuit sets the `Q' point of the amplifier. FM subcarrier audio at 4.5 MHz is also injected at this point through a 3300 ohm resistor and a DC blocking capacitor. A high frequency 5-watt RF power transistor (2SC1909) serves as the last stage of the modulator. An NTE-235, NTE-236, or equivalent is suitable in this application.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SF5jNuJxo-I/AAAAAAAAAoE/Ww8OnHhyTSU/s1600-h/videomod_pcb.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SF5jNuJxo-I/AAAAAAAAAoE/Ww8OnHhyTSU/s320/videomod_pcb.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5214714505920095202" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Clamped video is also fed into an LM311 voltage comparator that serves as a video sync detector. Some builders have used an LM1881 sync separator chip for this stage. Either way, sync pulses detected by this circuit trigger a CD4016B silicon bilateral switch that lowers the negative feedback around the video amplifier and voltage follower at sync time to compensate for high power gain compression in any solid-state linear power amplifiers that may follow the video modulated stages. This method of sync expansion is unique in that it also compensates for audio subcarrier compression at sync time, resulting in a clean output signal with no sync buzz in the transmitted audio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;R1 is a video gain control. It is used to set the white modulation level. R2 is a video bias control. It is used to set the black modulation level. R3 is adjusted so that the LM311 delivers clean sync pulses to the CD4016B with an input signal present. R4 adjusts the sync modulation level. Up to 9 dB of sync expansion is possible with this circuit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Video Modulator Performance&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The following graphs show the results of a computer simulation of the video modulator when adjusted for a voltage gain of 20 dB.

It is configured for a typical video cable driver application driving a double-terminated 75Ω load, where the EL8102 (IC3) is configured for a gain of +2 to ensure unity gain throughout.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SFdNuEm2abI/AAAAAAAAAmg/CSd-gn0HSaM/s1600-h/VampSync.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SFdNuEm2abI/AAAAAAAAAmg/CSd-gn0HSaM/s400/VampSync.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212720547610651058" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sync Stripping&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In component video systems it is frequently necessary to remove the sync pulse from an RGB signal. Sync is often combined with one or more of the red, green, and blue video signals in video distribution amplifiers, routers and switchers to decrease the number of input and output channels required in a switching network. In many applications, however, as the video signals exit the switching network the sync pulse must be removed.&lt;br /&gt;The EL8102 video op amp is specially designed to perform sync stripping. Its open emitter NPN output forms an emitter-follower with the load resistor, and passes the active video signal while virtually eliminating the negative sync pulse (see Figure 2). Residual sync of the EL8102, defined as the remainder of the original -300mV sync pulse, referenced to ground, is only 8mV at the cable output. A particular advantage of sync stripping with the EL8102 is the resultant larger (by 0.7V) output voltage swing, compared to simply using a wideband video op amp with an external emitter-follower.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because the EL8102 contains no active pull-down, output linearity degrades as the signal approaches ground. To deal with this a 6.8kΩ pull-up resistor (R8) and a 75Ω pull down resistor (R10) on the output ensure a fixed positive voltage offset, in this case +50mV. This offset was arbitrarily chosen as a good compromise between linearity near the DC level and minimum residual sync. Increasing R8 decreases residual sync, at the expense of linearity. Conversely, decreasing R8 decreases linearity error, but increases residual sync.Other applications benefitting from sync removal are HDTV systems and video digitizing circuits. Consider a typical 1VP-P RGB video signal with a -300mV sync pulse and +700mV video data. By stripping off the unwanted sync pulse and digitizing only the active video, designers can use the full dynamic range of the A/D converter for the +700mV video data. This results in a 30% increase in resolution using the same A/D converter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;DC Restore&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another common video function is DC restoration, used when AC coupled signals have lost their DC reference and must have it periodically reset in order to retain brightness information.&lt;br /&gt;This circuit accomplishes DC restoration using a CA5260 dual op amp (IC1a, IC1b) coupled with a sample-and-hold circuit based on the 74HC4053 switch (IC2). VIN, consisting of the input video signal and a DC offset (VDC), is routed to the non-inverting input of the EL8102 (IC3). The EL8102 is configured in a gain of +2 (to compensate for the attenuation resulting from double terminating the cable), which would result in an output of 2 x VIN.

Even though the resolution is much low, a television may help you to conduct basic procedures (copying your files for example) in such an emergency. You may think that this is only possible through expensive VGA cards but it's not true. A simple circuit can combine the VGA synchronization signals into composite TV synchronization signal. Following circuit by  &lt;a href="http://www.hut.fi/Misc/Electronics/circuits/vga2tv/index.html"&gt;Tomi Engdahl&lt;/a&gt;  carries out this job successfully without any problems. It utilizes a TTL IC, two transistors and a few resistors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SFUmoBQOt1I/AAAAAAAAAmI/ElOON6uNuis/s1600-h/vga2tv.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SFUmoBQOt1I/AAAAAAAAAmI/ElOON6uNuis/s400/vga2tv.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212114612724348754" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By putting all of the components on a PCB makes it easier to prepare a portable VGA to TV adapter. You'll need a male VGA connector to be connected to your PC and a Scart connector for your TV. Six lines of cable goes from VGA Card to TV without any alteration, only three of them is needed to be connected to the PCB board. Here is a PCB design I suggest using.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You'll need VGA connector's and Scart's pinouts also, so here they are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SFUmdIVyTiI/AAAAAAAAAmA/15PskAM5aKM/s1600-h/vga15.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SFUmdIVyTiI/AAAAAAAAAmA/15PskAM5aKM/s400/vga15.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212114425648139810" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Pinouts for VGA Connector&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SFUmQdM5rJI/AAAAAAAAAl4/K5AJ1IRJ6aw/s1600-h/scart.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SFUmQdM5rJI/AAAAAAAAAl4/K5AJ1IRJ6aw/s400/scart.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212114207909719186" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Pinouts for SCART Connector&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since circuit does not utilizes high currents, a very thin PCB plate would be enough. After drawing and etching processes, drill the holes and solder the components. Attach wires to the proper connection points and apply +5V supply voltage. If there's nothing wrong, you should measure nearly 75 mA current drag for a 74LS86 low power Schottky TTL type IC and again nearly 100 mA current drag for a 74S86 type IC.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SFUlqH25_vI/AAAAAAAAAlw/1756X2j9FH8/s1600-h/vga2tv.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oH9cuSJx7ZY/SFUlqH25_vI/AAAAAAAAAlw/1756X2j9FH8/s400/vga2tv.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212113549345292018" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since sweeping frequencies of the VGA boards are higher than the TV's, a software is needed to alter it. Here is one called  &lt;a href="http://tacashi.tripod.com/elctrncs/vga2tv/teyes.zip"&gt;Television Eyes&lt;/a&gt;  which both enables you to use circuit in DOS and Microsoft Windows (at 640 x 480 resolution). Just start your PC in DOS mode and run  'te.com'  to install it as a TSR. If you press   ALT - Left SHIFT -  E  keys simultaneously, the sweeping frequency of the VGA board will be changed and your TV will be able to sync the signal it receives.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2622929902778607189-1813416612319255124?l=videocircuit.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
