Abstract

Abstract A field deflection circuit in which the deflection coil is connected to a direct voltage source during the flyback period so as to reverse the polarity of the deflection current. For this purpose the deflection coil is connected through a switch controllable connected to the direct voltage source, which switch is controlled by the difference between a voltage proportional to the steep-edged sawtooth input signal and a voltage proportional to the deflection current. This difference is considerable during the flyback period and is utilized for switching on the controllable switch; it becomes zero as soon as the deflection current has reached its required value at which the switch is switched off again. It is thus achieved that the polarity reversal is always terminated when the required value is reached, even when the direct voltage fluctuates and also when the inductive load is changed.
