Abstract
Transistorized vertical deflection circuit employs output stage of class B, push-pull, complementary symmetry configuration with vertical yoke winding halves serially connected in output circuit. Miller integrator approach is used for sawtooth wave generation, with feedback waveform derived from yoke current sampling resistor. Discharge transistor is responsive to feedback of flyback pulses developed across serially connected yoke winding halves. Apparatus disposed between winding halves introduces modulated horizontal deflection frequency current components in winding halves for pincushion correcting purposes. One winding half of vertical deflection yoke is shunted by a capacitor of a value selected to introduce cancellation of horizontal deflection frequency components across yoke/pincushion circuitry, in order to minimize feedback of interlace-disturbing horizontal components in pincushion corrected vertical deflection circuit.
