Abstract

A dynamic focus voltage generator includes a source of a flyback input signal at a horizontal deflection frequency. A double integrator is responsive to the input signal for generating a parabolic periodic signal. An amplitude detector is responsive to the parabolic periodic signal for generating a control signal that is indicative of an amplitude of the parabolic periodic signal. A comparator is responsive to a signal at a reference level and to the control signal and coupled to the double integrator for regulating an amplitude of the parabolic periodic signal in a gain control negative feedback manner. A non-linear network is responsive to the parabolic periodic signal for producing a bathtub shaped output signal that is coupled to a focus electrode of a cathode ray tube.
