There is described a picture quality control system for use with a multi-beam cathode ray tube raster scan display device. The display device generates an image comprising a multiplicity of parallel, nonoverlaping bands of pixels, each band of pixels comprising a set of parallel lines of pixels.The control system includes a linearity correction circuit and a dynamic detwist correction circuit. The linearity correction circuit adjusts the distance between neighboring bands of pixels. The dynamic detwist correction circuit adjusts the relative positions of the electron beams generated by the cathode ray tube.The control system further includes a dynamic astigmatism correction circuit and a dynamic focus correction circuit for correcting astigmatism and focus imperfections in the image generated by said cathode ray tube. A dynamic size correction circuit adjusts the size of the pixels generated by the electron beams.The display is organized as an array of tiles. Each dynamic correction circuit in the control system includes a digital memory for storing a corresponding correction value for each said tile. Each correction value specifies the magnitude of the electromagnetic field to be generated by the corresponding coil or field generator when the cathode ray tube's electron beams are being deflected into the corresponding tile.

A system for producing a raster display having uniform line brightness is disclosed which is especially suitable for multibeam cathode ray tubes. A multi-beam or multi-gun cathode ray tube having N beams for painting N lines at a time to develop a first raster beginning at a first display line position. Subsequent rasters are developed by painting the same N number of lines at a time with a first line of that raster being scanned at a line position that is displaced between 1 and N-1 lines from the first line position painted in the preceding raster. The parallel input sources to the N beam is multiplexed for maintaining the video display at the proper position. That is, a line of input data is always presented on its corresponding display line position on the screen during successive rasters. By shifting the beams in each subsequent raster and by correspondingly switching (multiplexing) the input video data to the appropriate beams for each subsequent raster, the display appears to the eye to have a substantially uniform average line brightness. The invention herein described was made in the course of or under contract or subcontract thereunder (or grant) with the Department of the Navy.

A display device is provided. A data line includes a main line section, a first line section and a second line section spaced apart from one another. The first and second line sections respectively cross over a first scan line set to form first and second crossing regions. The main line section crosses over a second scan line set to form third crossing regions. The first line section is electrically connected to the main line section and one scan line of a third scan line set via a first switch element. The second line section is electrically connected to the main line section and another scan line of the third scan line set via a second switch element. First pixel units, second pixel units and third pixel units correspond respectively to the first crossing regions, the second crossing regions and the third crossing regions. Each of the first pixel units, the second pixel units and the third pixel units includes a switching element. The switching elements are respectively electrically connected to the first line section and one scan line of the first scan line set in the corresponding first crossing region, the second line section and one scan line of the first scan line set in the corresponding second crossing region, and the main line section and one scan line of the second scan line set in the corresponding third crossing region.

A high definition page display system for graphics and text utilizing shaped beams in a CRT is disclosed. Information for the several lines which are written simultaneously is made available in parallel. The invention is described in terms of a character set and text generation, but the same principles apply to any other graphic or bit map and to storage in ROMs or loadable RAMs. Each beam of a multiple CRT tube is biased to generate a portion of a character or grahic as it scans across the tube. It takes 12 lines to scan a character with a N-beam tube, 12 over N character scans are therefore required. With the same scanning speed as with a single beam, this factor can be used to increase definition (i.e. number of lines.) Also the advantage of multiple beams can be used to reduce scanning speed, if this is useful to improve brightness or spot definition, or to increase the number of dots per line. Reduced scanning speed can also reduce costs, particularly if it brings the scan rate in line with standard components available commercially. Another way to use the advantages would be higher refresh rates.

A digital memory may be addressed with an analog signal utilizing a circuit comprising a digital to analog converter. A comparator compares the output of the digital to analog converter to the analog address signal. The output of the comparator is coupled to means for incrementing and decrementing a digital number in response to that output. The digital number incrementing and decrementing means has an output which is coupled to the addressing input of the digital memory. Switch means alternately connects the input of the digital to analog converter to either the output of the random access memory or the output of the means for changing the digital number.

A multi-beam electron gun for use in a monochrome cathode ray tube (CRT) such as used in a black and white television receiver, a projection television receiver, or a computer monitor includes G1 control and G2 screen grids each having a plurality of vertically aligned apertures for forming electron beams which are deflected in unison across the CRT's display screen to simultaneously trace a plurality of vertically spaced, horizontal scan lines with each display screen sweep. The electron beams are deflected across the screen in a raster-like manner with each beam containing video information for each adjacent scan line. The G1 control grid includes a plurality of discrete conductive portions each including a respective beam passing aperture and each coupled to a respective video signal source, with the video signal sources including memory for storing video signal information for subsequent display. This permits plural adjacent scanning electron beams to simultaneously provide adjacent portions of the same frame of a video image on the display screen. The grids in the main lens portion of the electron gun include vertically elongated, common apertures for focusing each of the electron beams on the display screen, with the electron beams deflected by a vertically oriented, self-convergent magnetic deflection yoke. In another embodiment, each of a plurality of vertically aligned apertures in the G1 grid has an associated cathode, with a respective video signal provided to each of the cathodes for simultaneously writing video information on adjacent horizontal scan lines on the video display.

A system for correcting for intensity variations and electron beam landing errors in a flat panel display device includes two compensation means. The first compensation means applies a continuously varying voltage to the modulation electrodes to add a varying current to the electron beam current. The compensation current offsets the intensity variations of the electron beam. The second compensation means applies an averaged position signal to the modulation electrodes to compensate for beam landing errors of the electron beam.
