Abstract
Brightness control apparatus for a color video monitor employing AC coupled video output driver stages is disclosed. A keyed amplifier provides a brightness determinative output pulse with an amplitude related to the setting of a brightness control coupled to the amplifier. The brightness pulse is coupled via separately adjustable brightness tracking circuits to control inputs of video signal clamps respectively associated with each of the color video signal paths between the driver stages and an image display device.
