An automatic gain control arrangement is provided for an analog to digital (A/D) converter in a television signal processing system. A gain-controlled source of analog signals applies a video information signal to the input of an A/D converter. The A/D converter produces digitized video signal samples at an output which is coupled to a digital peak detector. The digital peak detector detects the level of the digital samples of the synchronizing signal components. The detected sync signal level is compared with a desired value or range of values. If the detected sync signal level is not at the desired level or is outside the desired range, the count of a counter is incremented or decremented accordingly. The count of the counter is converted to an analog voltage which is applied to the gain-controlled signal source to control the level of the analog signal applied to the A/D converter. The analog voltage may also be combined with a control voltage produced by an analog peak detector, which detects the level of the input signal to the A/D converter, to produce a composite gain control signal. |
