Automatic Picture Tube Bias Control
Circuit
Description
The CA3224E is an automatic picture tube bias control cir-
cuit used in color TV receiver CRT drive circuits. It is used to
provide dynamic bias control of the grey scale both initially
and over the CRT operating life, compensating for CRT cut-
off changes.
The CA3224E provides automatic continuous control of the
cutoff current in each gun of a three-gun color CRT. From an
input pulse amplitude proportional to the difference between
the desired and the actual CRT cutoff, a gated sample/hold
circuit generates a DC correction voltage which correctly
biases the CRT driver circuit. The sample/hold bias
correction takes place each frame following the vertical
blanking. Figure 1 shows a block diagram of the CA3224E.
The functions include three identical servo loop
transconductance amplifiers with a sample/hold switch and
buffer amplifier plus control logic, internal bias and a mode.
