Abstract

In a circuit arrangement for correcting a raster distortion in a cathode ray tube, at least one vertical perforated, index strip of a sensor is arranged at a corresponding margin of a picture producing screen of the cathode ray tube. An index signal that is indicative when the electron beam passes the index strip is generated. The index signal is coupled through an enclosure of the cathode ray tube in a nonconductive manner to a second electrode that is located outside the enclosure. A comparator circuit is used for comparing the index signal with a line deflection representative signal to generate a control signal that corrects the raster distortion.
