Therefore, overall focus is improved over the crt
display area. Figure 4-3 illustrates the typical
correction-voltage curve as the beam is deflected over
the crt display area. The correction-voltage curves for
vertical and horizontal deflection are not identical;
however, the theory is the same.

horizontal signals, from the
X Focus-Correction Pickoff stage shown on diagram 2,
are coupled to the X Focus-Correction Shaper stage of
the Dynamic Focus circuit. Quiescently, with the crt
beam horizontally deflected within about 3 divisions of
center screen, Q710-Q720 are conducting and CR710-
CR720 are reverse biased. The voltage level at the
anodes of CR710 and CR720 is approximately +5.1
volts, as determined by zener diode VR750 and
transistor Q750.
As the beam is deflected to the right side of the crt
display area, the output of Q710 falls below +4.5
volts, forward biasing CR710 (CR720 is reverse
biased). The signal is coupled through R715 (Right)
and applied to the Summing and O utpu t Amplifier at
the emitter of Q750.
As the beam is deflected to the left side of the crt
display area, the output of Q720 falls below +4.5

CR753 limits the output of 0750 to prevent
overdriving the Output Amplifier. The Output Amplifier
of this stage, consisting of transistors 07S0-0765-
0770-Q776, is an inverting operation amplifier. The
input signal to this amplifier is developed across R 753.
The feedback network for the Output Amplifier
consists of R7S9 and C7S9-C7SS. Emitter followers
0760 and Q765 provide current amplification for
0770 and 0776, which are connected in a collector
coupled complementary amplifier configuration. The
composite correction signal is coupled to the Focus

Supply circuit (diagram 5).

The High-Voltage Power Supply provides the voltage

the cathode-ray tube (crt). A schematic diagram of the
High-Voltage Power Supply is shown on diagram 5. A

A repetitive, sinusoidal signal is produced by a

and induced into the secondary. Current drive for the
primary winding is furnished by OS1 6-0818-081 0-
