Abstract
An inverter coupled to a source of DC input voltage is operated at the horizontal deflection frequency for developing a horizontal rate square-wave supply voltage. A power transformer having a first winding excited by the square-wave supply voltage develops a horizontal rate alternating polarity output voltage across a linearity correction winding. A phase control circuit phases the alternating polarity output voltage relative to the phasing of the horizontal scanning current so as to apply a greater magnitude voltage across the horizontal deflection winding during the last half of the trace interval of each deflection cycle than during the first half of the trace interval. In this manner, linearity correction of the horizontal scanning current is obtained. The linearity correction winding is electrically disconnected from the circuit during the horizontal retrace interval in order to control the amount of power introduced into the deflection circuit via the linearity correction winding.
