Abstract
The present invention is a method and apparatus for selecting a capacitor value corresponding to a horizontal frequency in a video monitor. The technique determines the horizontal frequency and creates a limit on a default capacitor value which is obtained from the determined horizontal frequency. An updated value is compared with the limit to generate a comparison result. The capacitor value between the default capacitor value and the updated value is selected based on the comparison result.
