An apparatus for correcting image distortion in a display device and method thereof facilitate enhanced image distortion correction includes a first memory storing at least one interpolation constant; a control unit for generating a predetermined number of image point signals; a device for outputting at least one drive signal, to correct distortion in an image point, by interpolating the input image point signals using the at least one interpolation constant; and at least one switching device for switching a drive control of a corresponding area of the image in response to a corresponding drive signal. The apparatus facilitates distortion correction in slim line CRT displays of wide deflection angle. Interpolation information is stored in a Field Programmable Gate Array controlled by an EEPROM, output signals passing via photocouplers.

The invention provides a diode modulator circuit which is adapted to supply an acceptable S-correction of the S-linearity error of the line scanning of a picture tube (CRT) at substantially different line scan widths. A known diode modulator comprises two loops. The first loop comprises a series arrangement of a line deflection coil (LD) and an S-capacitor (CS), which series arrangement is arranged in parallel with a first flyback capacitor (CF1) and a first diode (D1). The second loop comprises a modulator coil (LB) arranged in parallel with a second flyback capacitor (CF2) and a second diode (D2). The two loops are arranged in series. An inner-pincushion capacitor (CSM) is arranged in a common path in which the line deflection current (Id) and a modulator current (Ib) flowing through the modulator coil (LB) flow in opposite directions. The amount of S-correction depends on the values of the S-correction capacitor (SC) and the inner-pincushion capacitor (CSM). The S-capacitor (CS) has been omitted in the diode modulator according to the invention. In this way, the amount of S-correction at minimal scan width will be zero because the common current (Im) flowing in the common path is zero if the diode modulator is in equilibrium. The diode modulator according to the invention can thus cope with picture tubes (CRT) which require a very low amount of S-correction at a small scan width without the need for an additional capacitor (CS2) and a thyristor switching circuit (T) to activate the additional capacitor (CS2) to lower the amount of S-correction at the small scan width. The invention is particularly useful if a continuous zoom between a 16/9 and a 4/3 scan width on a display tube with a 16/9 aspect ratio has to be performed in a simple way.

A parabolic modulation circuit multiples a horizontal parabolic signal and a vertical modulation signal together, to amplitude-modulate the horizontal parabolic signal using the vertical modulation signal, and modulates the phase of the horizontal parabolic signal on the basis of the vertical modulation signal, to output the modulated horizontal parabolic signal to a correction current output amplifier. When an NS pincushion distortion on a screen of a CRT is asymmetrical, a horizontal parabolic signal generation circuit is so set as to generate an asymmetrical horizontal parabolic signal. A gull-wing distortion can be corrected by adjusting the value of n in an n-th power waveform generator in the horizontal parabolic signal generation circuit.

Color display device comprising a shadow mask and means for correcting landing-errors. The correction means comprise first and second correction deflection devices which are arranged one behind the other in the direction of the electron beams and are energizable in opposite senses so that the first correction deflection device generates a dipole field deflecting the three electron beams away from the longitudinal tube axis, and the second correction deflection device generates a dipole field deflecting the three electron beams towards the longitudinal tube axis, or conversely. In an alternative embodiment the correction means comprise means to advance or delay the video signal to the Source of the electron beams.
摘要:
In a televison picture tube deflection apparatus a gullwing distortion correction signal (V gc ) and a north-south pincushion distortion correction signal (V pc ) are generated and then summed to form a sum signal (V gp ). The sum signal is coupled to a primary winding (W₁) of a transformer (T). A secondary winding (W₂) of the transformer (T) is coupled in a current path of a vertical rate deflection current (i V ) for modulating the deflection current in a manner that reduces the gullwing and north-south pincushion distortions. The secondary winding (W₂) is included in a resonant circuit (63) that is tuned to resonate at the horizontal frequency.
