Abstract
A shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube control circuit is described, comprising a control loop, which is coupled to a deflection unit of a shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube. The shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube control circuit further comprises a loop gain control means for compensating the loop gain of the control loop in dependence on the inverse value of the beam current in the shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube. The effect is that a constant loop gain is created, which is independent of the beam current.
Claims7
A shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube control circuit (3) comprising a control loop having a loop gain control means (10), which control loop is coupled to the shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube (1), characterized in that the loop gain control means (10) is arranged to compensate a loop gain of the control loop in dependence on the inverse value of a beam current (Ibeam) in the shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube (1).
An image device (D), such as a monitor or television device, comprising a shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube control circuit (3), in which the shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube control circuit (3) comprises a control loop having a loop gain control means (10), which control loop is coupled to a shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube (1), characterized in that the loop gain control means (10) is arranged to compensate the loop gain of the control loop in dependence on the inverse value of a beam current (Ibeam) in the shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube (1).
A method of controlling the spot position in a shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube (1), characterized in that the spot position is controlled in such a way that the cathode takes the inverse value of the beam current (Ibeam) in the shadowmaskless tracking cathode ray tube (1) into account.
