Abstract
A cathode ray tube protection circuit for a projection TV generates a signal which may be used to blank the tubes in response to a loss or reduction in beam deflection. Signals representative of vertical and horizontal deflection currents are provided. A reference signal is combined with the deflection representative signals to provide a signal having a predetermined amplitude. If the deflection current changes in any of the deflection yokes, the combined signal will change in amplitude. This change in amplitude is detected and used to generate a disabling or blanking signal for the kine driver circuits.
