An apparatus is disclosed to convert a non-interlaced computer graphics
signal which consists of contiguous scan lines into an interlaced video
signal which alternately consists of even fields and odd fields. The
converting apparatus includes a receiving means, a low-pass filter and a
line buffer. The receiving means sequentially receives a scan line. The
line buffer stores the brightness signals of the first and the second scan
lines before the received scan line. And the low-pass filter receives the
sequential contiguous scan lines from the line buffer and the displaying
scan line, weights the brightness signals of these scan lines and outputs
the scan lines with the weighted brightness signal and a halved refresh
rate to serve as the even field and the odd field of the interlace video
signal.
