Abstract
Circuitry for controlling the amplitude of a self-resonant scanner including a first means for measuring the time to complete a number of full cycle scanner movements, a second means for measuring the time to complete a number of movements between a first fixed point and a second fixed point in the scan path and logic means using such time measurements to determine whether the scanner amplitude is greater or less than a desired amplitude and providing digital information to produce an analog signal for controlling the scanner amplitude to reduce any difference from the desired amplitude.
