Abstract
A charge storage capacitor is coupled to an ultor electrode of a cathode ray tube for supplying a beam current when video loading variations occur. A relatively small resistor coupled in series with the capacitor develops an AC feedback signal that is indicative of beam current variations. The AC feedback signal developed in the resistor is coupled to a control input of a high voltage regulator in a negative feedback manner to compensate for the beam current variations. An ultor voltage is developed across a voltage divider. A DC feedback signal is coupled from a terminal of the voltage divider to the control input of the regulator. The DC feedback signal is low-pass filtered via a first low-pass filter. The AC feedback signal is low-pass filtered via a separate low-pass filter that provides less extensive low pass filtering than the first low-pass filter.
