853,704. Television. RADIO CORPORATION OF AMERICA. June 26, 1959 [July 21, 1958], No. 22075/59. Class 40(3). [Also in Group XL(c)] In a television receiver including a transistor video detector 18, blanking during vertical retrace is effected by a pulse which is applied to the input circuit of the detector with a polarity corresponding to black-representing signals. As illustrated, the detector is of the P-N-P type and the pulse, which is applied to the base input circuit, is of negative polarity and increases conduction through the detector to produce a positive-going output pulse. The detector feeds the cathode-ray tube grid 40 via a phase-reversing transistor video amplifier 114, and the pulse is thus effective to cut off the tube during blanking. In a second embodiment, Fig. 3 (not shown), the detector is of the N-P-N type and the blanking pulse is arranged to be positive going. The detector in this embodiment feeds the cathode of the cathode-ray tube via the video amplifier. The blanking pulse is derived from the vertical scanning output circuit 48 via a resistor-capacitor shaping network 73-76 and is applied to the transistor base through the secondary winding 16 of I.F. transformer 14. The base bias is provided by a network including a diode 66 which stabilises the operating point against temperature variation. The collector circuit includes a tuned transformer 24 to develop an intercarrier sound signal. The video output is derived across resistor 60 and applied to the input of the video amplifier via contrast-control potentiometer 36. An A.G.C. potential is derived via resistor 62. The video amplifier includes peaking coils 124 and 128 in the collector circuit and a frequency responsive feed-back circuit 132, 134, 136 from collector to base to produce a desired overall frequency and phase response. The vertical scan output circuit 48 comprises an N-P-N transistor 91 in series with a P-N-P transistor 90. The transistors operate in class B with in-phase drive on their bases and the output is taken from the commoned emitters. The bias circuit 102, 104, 106 is made temperature sensitive by the inclusion of a diode 100. Resistor 104 is made variable to permit scan amplitude adjustment. Feed-back from the output is provided via capacitor 108. |
