Abstract

In a horizontal deflection output circuit adapted for correction of horizontal linearity in a television receiver or the like, and which comprises a switching transistor, a damper diode, a horizontal deflecting coil and an S correcting capacitor connected in series to the horizontal deflecting coil; the terminal voltage of the S correcting capacitor is modulated by a sawtooth signal produced by a linear distortion correcting circuit synchronously with a horizontal periodic signal. The sawtooth signal produced by the switching transistor and fed to the horizontal deflecting coil is applied to the S correcting capacitor which feeds an S correcting current to the horizontal deflecting coil, so as to correct the image distortion caused particularly by the resistance component of the horizontal deflecting coil.
