Abstract
Electron beams in a cathodoluminescent display device are modulated utilizing a means for generating a voltage proportional to the instantaneous electrical charge on the cathodoluminescent screen and means for generating a periodic reference waveform having a peak voltage proportional to a sampling of the incoming video signal. A differential amplifier compares the voltage proportional to the electrical charge on the screen to the instantaneous voltage of the reference waveform. A regulator controls the flow of electrons to the screen so as to force the voltage which is proportional to the instantaneous screen charge to approximate the reference waveform voltage.
