Noise Inversion Patents (Class 348/535)
  • Patent number: 9122443
    Abstract: A vertical synchronization circuit for synchronizing multiple video streams using an input vertical sync signal. The circuit includes a digital phase lock loop circuit configured to generate an intermediate frequency signal based on the input vertical sync signal and an analog phase lock loop circuit configured to convert the intermediate frequency signal into a pixel clock. They system further includes a counter configured to generate output synchronization signals based on the pixel clock.

  • Patent number: 8035739
    Abstract: In one aspect a transmission system with a transmitter which can be connected to a video source and a receiver linked to the transmitter via at least four circuit pairs, to which receiver a playback device can be connected is provided. Data is usually exchanged digitally between a graphics card in a personal computer and an LCD display module. The personal computer transmits a digital R, G, B video signal to the LCD display module via a special, so-called DVI (Digital Video Interface) cable. This DVI cable is also provided to transmit so-called DDC (Display Data Channel) data, which particularly comprises specification information of the LCD display module. A transmission system is proposed, which simplifies a connection of an LCD display module to a personal computer and with which the DVI cable can be dispensed with.
