Abstract
A deflection apparatus comprises a deflection amplifier coupled to a deflection waveform modulation circuit such as a diode modulator. A source for generating a modulation signal. The modulation signal comprises a symmetrical periodic AC component having equal first and second portions of a trace period. A feedback amplifier alters the amplitude of a first portion of the trace period relative to a second portion of the trace period to render the AC component asymmetrical. The asymmetrical AC component is coupled to the deflection waveform modulation circuit for deflection waveform modulation.
