The authors present a single-chip VLSI chrominance/luminance (Y/C) separator that is economically fabricated for NTSC TV signals at 13.5-MHz CCIR standard sampling rate. In order to realize compactness and low power dissipation, two FIR filter architectures and a multiplier structure are proposed. A silicon compiler, which uses these structures, also contributes to fast and error-free VLSI development. The Y/C separator chip has 10.4-mm*11.7-mm die size and attains about 860-MOPS operating speed.>
