Abstract
A phase controller of a horizontal drive pulse fed into a horizontal deflection circuit supplying a horizontal deflection pulse, and a control method of the same are disclosed. A frequency discriminator identifies a format of video-input-signal by detecting a frequency of the horizontal sync signal. A reference phase generator generates a reference phase signal based on the output from the frequency discriminator. A sawtooth waveform generator generates a sawtooth waveform signal responsive to the output from the frequency discriminator. A phase difference voltage detector outputs a phase difference voltage responsive to the phase difference between the reference phase signal and the horizontal deflection pulse. A phase control signal generator generates a phase control signal using the phase difference voltage and the sawtooth waveform signal. Horizontal drive pulse generator outputs a horizontal drive pulse having a phase responsive to the phase control signal. The phase controller and the phase control method as structured above realize a stable phase control of the horizontal drive pulses in video display devices.
