A clamping circuit of a high definition CRT display which is adapted to feed the picture signals to the cathode of the cathode-ray tube through a coupling capacitor is connected to the above described cathode, and the above described pulse clamping circuit is operated during the picture blanking period for charging the coupling capacitor so as to change the DC voltage of the cathode. A reference voltage source which conforms to the electrical potential of the black level of the above described picture signal is provided, the above described reference voltage source is connected to the picture signal output line during the picture blanking period so as to reduce the output impedance of the picture output circuit during the same period to correctly reproduce the brightness in spite of the picture signals.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Accordingly, the present invention has been developed with a view to substantially eliminating the above discussed drawbacks inherent in the prior art, and has for its essential object to provide an improved black level clamping circuit.
Another important object of the present invention is to provide a clamping circuit, which is adapted to reduce the variations in the DC voltage between the black signal and the white signal so as to correctly reproduce the brightness.
The brightness circuit of the present invention is provided with a means which is adapted to make the output impedance of the picture output circuit smaller for a period of picture blanking pulses only to be fed to the keyed clamping circuit.
In the clamping circuit of the present invention of such construction as described hereinabove, the charging time constant of the coupling capacitor is made much smaller as compared with the discharging time constant to remove the influences of the discharging operation for correctly effecting the DC voltage shift, thus resulting in the correct reproduction of the brightness.
