A color demodulation circuit that can complement an unstable state of an
output from an ACC circuit and can obtain stable color-difference
outputs, regardless of a burst signal in a chrominance carrier signal.
Normally, a selector connects an output from a first multiplier that
controls an amplitude of an output from a band-pass filter using an
output from the ACC circuit, to a color-difference output demodulation
circuit. However, during a period in which there are abrupt changes in
the burst signal, for example during a period in which the output from
the ACC circuit becomes unstable such as at switching between a state
including a burst and a state not including a burst, the selector
connects an output from a second multiplier that controls the amplitude
of the output from the band-pass filter using an ACC output monitor
signal, to the color-difference demodulation circuit.
