Abstract
A selectable aspect ratio raster is generated on a CRT with a 16:9 aspect ratio screen by a deflection yoke and deflection amplifier. The deflection amplifier is coupled in a non-floating configuration to the deflection yoke. This permits a switching arrangement to control the horizontal deflection amplitude by the selectable addition of inductance in series, with the yoke. The switching arrangement also controls other deflection circuit parameters to provide optimum raster correction at the selected aspect ratio.
