Abstract

A multisync horizontal drive generator for use in a television receiver or computer monitor display is operative in response to an applied horizontal scan synchronizing signal. A delay network couples the horizontal sync signal to a gated detector which compares the delayed horizontal sync signal to a differentiated horizontal scan flyback signal to produce an error signal. A gain adjustable error amplifier couples the error signal to a summing network which includes a nominal frequency input. A range control detects the frequency of the horizontal drive signal and applies a range control signal to the summing network. The combined signal inputs are coupled from the summing network to a signal controllable current source which drives a saw forming network to produce a horizontal scan signal. A multiscan decoder controls a pair of current mirrors in response to a multiscan code input to couple the output currents of the current mirror to the saw former to produce horizontal scan drive signals having frequency multiples of the horizontal sync frequency.
