Next, the operation in such a configuration will be explained with reference to the waveform diagram of FIG. 2. First, it is assumed that a luminance signal having a waveform as shown in FIG. 2A appears at the emitter of the transistor 8 in the video amplifier circuit 2.
Assume that color noise is noticeable in a dark part of the screen where the black level is higher than the predetermined level indicated by the broken line in the figure. Therefore, in this circuit, the resistors 16, 18, and 20 are selected so that the diode 19 becomes conductive when the luminance signal becomes closer to the black level than this predetermined level.
Set the voltage at the interconnection point C of 6 and 18. In this way, when the luminance signal is closer to the black level than the predetermined level as shown in FIG. The voltage decreases to approximately the same voltage according to the luminance signal (range a), and when the luminance signal is closer to the white level than the predetermined level, the diode 19 shuts off, resulting in a constant level (range b). At this time,
Due to the presence of the constant voltage diode 17, the voltage waveform at the interconnection point B of the resistors 16 and 20 is always higher than the voltage at point C by the voltage E at the other end of the constant voltage diode 17, as shown in FIG. It will look like B. That is, the voltage difference across the variable resistor 16 is always constant at E, and only the voltage relative to the ground point decreases in range a.

Therefore, when the voltage at the other end is divided by the sliding terminal of the variable resistor 16 to create a control voltage for controlling the amplification degree, a control voltage such as D shown by a chain line in FIG. 2 is obtained. In other words, in bright areas on the screen where the luminance signal is closer to the white level than a predetermined level, the amplification degree of the carrier color signal is kept constant as before, but once the luminance signal is closer to the black level than the predetermined level. When it becomes a dark area on the screen where color noise is noticeable, the amplification degree of the carrier color signal is automatically reduced, suppressing the color signal that causes color noise and preventing the generation of color noise. It will be oppressed. As a result, color noise is not noticeable even in dark areas on the screen, and a color television image with good image quality is displayed.
