Abstract

Disclosed is an SCR-analogue, dual coupled transistor vertical oscillator for synching the vertical sweep in a video display with vertical synchronization input signals. Capable of stable, free-running oscillation at two, variable DC levels, the coupled transistor configuration in combination with a capacitor generates a precisely defined sawtooth voltage waveform for controlling vertical sweep and flyback. This combination provides an inexpensive, flexible means for synchronizing sweep drive circuitry operating at various DC coupled levels with a wide range of synchronization input signals.
