TIME BASE STABILITY
FOREWORD
1) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters, prepared by Technical Committees on
which all the National Committees having a special interest therein are represented, express, as nearly as
possible, an international consensus of opinion on the subjects dealt with.
2) They have the form of recommendations for international use and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
3) In order to promote international unification, the IEC expresses the wish that all National Committees
should adopt the text of the IEC recommendation for their national rules in so far as national conditions will
permit. Any divergence between the IEC recommendation and the corresponding national rules should, as
far as possible, be clearly indicated in the latter.
This International Standard has been prepared by Sub-Committee 60B: Video recording,
of IEC Technical Committee No. 60: Recording.
It forms the second edition of IEC 756 and supersedes the first edition issued in 1983.
The text of this standard is based on the first edition and the following documents:
Six Months' Rule Report on Voting
60B(CO)102
60B(CO)117
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the Voting
Report indicated in the above table.

NON-BROADCAST VIDEO TAPE RECORDERS -
TIME BASE STABILITY
1 Scope and object
This International Standard specifies the time base errors of the monochrome as well as of
the colour composite video signal reproduced from two head helical-scan domestic video
recorders, recording one field on each track. This standard gives characteristics and
maximum figures of the time base errors to make it possible to design the horizontal
flywheel of television receivers so as to ensure acceptable stability on the screen.
2 Definitions concerning time base stability
2.1
Gap
Loss of video signal during a ce rtain period of each field.
2.2 Phase step
2.2.1 Due to a difference between the length of the head path and the length of the
recorded track, a phase step occurs at the end of the gap respectively at the time of
switching from one track to the next. The sign of the phase step depends on the sign of
the difference of lengths.
2.2.2 Due to a deviation of the angle between the two video heads from the theoretical
value of 180°, a phase step occurs at the end of the gap respectively at the time of
switching from one track to the next. The sign of the phase step alternates from one field
to the next.
2.3 Deviation of line frequency
2.3.1 The mean value of the line frequency is determined by the source to which the
recorder is locked. If the frequency of this source deviates from the frequency of the
source used during recording, the mean value of the line frequency of the playback signal
will differ from its original value. If the machine is not locked to an external reference, the
deviation will depend on the difference between head speed during recording and that
during playback.
2.3.2 Because neither head nor tape velocities are constant, a jitter of the line frequency
occurs containing various frequency components which depend on mechanical parts of the
tape deck and varying tape properties.
2.4
Deviation of colour carrier frequency
2.4.1 Depending on the modulation system used in the colour signal processing, a
deviation of the mean value of the colour carrier frequency from its original value may
occur.

756©IEC - 9 -
2.4.2 Depending on the modulation system used in the colour signal processing the jitter
of the colour carrier frequency will be a certain percentage of the jitter of the line
frequency.
2.5 Relative displacement
Relative displacement is defined as the ratio of the horizontal displacement of a picture
element to the line interval.
3 Measurement of time base errors
3.1 Gap
The timing of the gap relative to the vertical sync pulse, the gap duration and signals
during the gap shall be measured with an oscilloscope.
3.2 Phase step
The phase step due to a difference of lengths and the phase step due to a deviation of
angles are superimposed and shall be measured on the screen of a monitor or of a
television set. This shall be done by measuring the horizontal deviation of a ve rtical bar at
the end of the gap with respect to the horizontal position of the ve rtical bar at the
beginning of the gap respectively before and after the time of switching from one track to
the next.
3.3 Deviation of line frequency
3.3.1 The mean value of the line frequency shall be measured by a counter or a fre-
quency discriminator having a long time constant with respect to the line frequency.
3.3.2 The jitter of the line frequency shall be measured by a frequency discriminator or
by measuring the line period. The jitter shall be determined by the percentage of
peak-to-peak deviation from the average value
H(PP)/fH and weighted by a weighting
&f
curve due to the fact that the reaction of the horizontal flywheel of television receivers
depends on the frequency of the jitter.
3.4
Deviation of colour carrier frequency
3.4.1 The mean value of the colour carrier frequency shall be measured by a frequency
counter.
3.4.2 The method of measuring the jitter of the colour carrier frequency is under con-
sideration.
4 Maximum values of time base errors
4.1
Gap
The centre of the gap should lie three to 15 lines before the leading edge of the ve
rtical
sync pulse. The duration of the gap should be less than five lines. The signal during the
gap shall be a constant level between black level and white level upon which an unwanted

signal (e.g. noise) may be superimposed. The peak-to-peak amplitude of the unwanted
signal shall be less than 60 % of the sync amplitude.
