Abstract

A convergence circuit coupled in parallel with a deflection winding are AC coupled to an output terminal of a deflection amplifier. Rectifiers in the convergence circuit are poled such that the deflection amplifier output current is assymmetrically loaded during the trace portion of each deflection cycle, causing a net direct current of a first polarity through the deflection winding which off-centers the raster. A direct current path coupled in shunt with the yoke coupling capacitor permits conduction of a direct current of a second polarity through the deflection winding for controlling the centering of the raster.
