Top/bottom active pincushion circuit with ringing inhibit

Details

Inventors: O'Connor, Edward P.; Oliver, Kirk D.;
Assignee: Zenith Electronics Corporation (Glenview, IL)
Primary Examiner: Blum; Theodore M.
Assistant Examiner: Issing; Gregory C.
Attorney, Agent or Firm:

A top/bottom pincushion correction amplifier has an inhibit terminal that is coupled to vertical deflection means for receiving an inhibit pulse that corresponds to a vertical retrace pulse in the yoke. A vertical amplifier feeds the yoke in series with the secondary winding of a pincushion transformer, the primary winding of which is supplied with a pincushion correction signal from the pincushion amplifier. The effect of the retrace pulse in the yoke in causing ringing in the pincushion transformer is nullified by the inhibit pulse which increases the output impedance of the pincushion amplifier.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1.
A vertical deflection circuit comprising: a source of vertical deflection signal including a vertical retrace pulse; a vertical yoke supplied with said vertical deflection signal; a pincushion amplifier; a source of top/bottom pincushion correction signal coupled to the input of said pincushion amplifier; output means, comprising a pincushion transformer having one winding connected to said pincushion amplifier and another winding connected in series with said vertical yoke, driven by said pincushion amplifier for coupling said pincushion correction signal to said yoke, said output means undesirably experiencing ringing resulting from said vertical retrace pulse; said pincushion amplifier having an inhibit terminal and exhibiting a high output impedance when it is inhibited; and means supplying a vertical retrace pulse to said inhibit terminal for damping said ringing.
2.
A vertical deflection circuit comprising a source of vertical deflection signal including a retrace pulse, a yoke supplied with said vertical deflection signal, a pincushion correction amplifier having an inhibiting input terminal and a non-inhibiting input terminal and a pincushion transformer having a primary winding coupled across the output of said pincushion correction amplifier and a secondary winding connected in series with said yoke; a source of top/bottom pincushion correction signal coupled to the non-inhibiting input of said pincushion amplifier; and means coupling an inhibit pulse, corresponding to said retrace pulse to the inhibiting input terminal of said pincushion correction amplifier, said pincushion amplifier, when inhibited, presenting a high output impedance in series with said primary winding for inhibiting ringing therein in the presence of said vertical retrace pulse in said yoke.
