( 11) 1 586 045 Application No 10410/78 ( 22) Filed 16 Mar 1978 Convention Application No 778900 ( 32) Filed 18 Mar 1977 United States of America (US) in Complete Specification Published 18 Mar 1981 ( 51) INT CL 3 H 04 N 9/28 G 09 G 1/20 ( 52) Index at Acceptance H 4 T CC : ROBERT CLEMENT OSWALD ( 54) IMPROVEMENTS IN CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY APPARATUS ( 71) We, SPERRY RAND CORPORATION, a Corporation organised under the laws of the State of Delaware, United States of America, of 1290 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10019, United States of America, do hereby declare the invention, for which we pray that a patent may be granted to us, and the method by which it is to be performed, to be particularly described in and by the follow-
ing statement:-
The present invention relates to cathode ray tube display apparatus including a colour cathode ray tube.
Colour cathode ray tubes normally utilise three electron guns, the beams from which are deflected so that they pass through minute holes in a shadow mask and impinge on a triad of phosphor dots on the cathode ray tube screen.
Since the guns do not occupy the same position, their electron beams are deflected slightly differently by the deflection coils, and correction is necessary to ensure that all three beams converge upon the same hole in the shadow mask for any deflection.
In known convergence correction circuits the adjustments frequently interact so that adjusting one colour on one side affects other colours on the other side of the cathode ray tube screen This means that adjustment is tedious and prolonged, and it is difficult to achieve the best overall effect.
An object of the present invention is to provide cathode ray tube display apparatus including a multi-gun colour cathode ray tube with convergence correction in which the correction may be adjusted for any one colour without substantially affecting other colours, and for one region of the tube without substantially affecting the correction in other regions.
Accordingly, the present invention provides such apparatus having a convergence correction coil for each gun, and with convergence correction circuits including a first programmable readonly memory receiving the horizontal address of a segment of the cathode ray tube screen currently being scanned and providing digital outputs to one or other of a pair of digital-toanalog converters so as to generate analog voltages corresponding respectively to addresses left or right of the centre of the screen, a sec 50 ond programmable read-only memory receiving the vertical address of a segment of the cathode ray tube screen currently being scanned and providing digital outputs to one or other of a pair of digital-to-analog converters correspond 55 ing respectively to addresses above or below the centre of the screen, summing means for each correction coil summing an independently adjustable proportion of each of the said analog voltages, and means for controlling the 60 correction coil current in accordance with the summed analog voltage.
This arrangement allows each colour to be adjusted independently of the others, and also allows an adjustment to be made in one vertical 65 or horizontal half of the screen without substantially affecting the adjustment in the other half In order to be able to make an adjustment at the centre of the screen, the summing means may further have means for including an adjus 70 table proporation of a steady DC voltage.
The invention will be further described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1, comprising two sheets la and lb, 75 is a circuit diagram of the convergence correction circuits used in the present invention, Figure 2 is a block diagram of the same circuits, Figures 3 a, 3 b, 3 c and 3 d, are waveforms 80 representing the outputs from the four digitalto-analog converters of Figure 2, Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of a cathode ray tube of the kind used in an embodiment of the present invention, 85 Figure 5 shows the dots of an individual phosphor triad, Figure 6 is a diagram of a convergence correction coil in relation to its associated colour gun, and 90 Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of a convergence correction yoke showing the relationship of the convergence correction coils to their colour guns.
( 21) ( 31) ( 33) ( 44) W) 00 W) ( 72) Inventor:
1 586045 Figure 4 shows diagrammatically a threegun colour cathode ray tube (CRT) 2, having red, green and blue colour guns 10 A single phosphor triad 16 of the type with which the phosphor screen 4 is coated is shown in Figure Under normal operation of such a CRT, three electron beams are generated by the three colour guns 10 see Figure 7; corrective deflection fields are provided by the convergence correction yoke 8 to deflect each of the beams to compensate for the gun positions, and a deflection field is generated by the deflection yoke 12 to cause the three beams to pass through one of the holes in a shadow mask 6 and strike the corresponding phosphor triad 16 on the screen 4 of the tube It is important that the three beams should converge accurately on the same hole in the shadow mask so that each strikes its own phosphor dot 17 in the triad 16 to produce a chromatic dot group in the image on the screen 4.
In the embodiment to be described, the colour CRT 2 is used for displaying alphanumeric information, which information is displayed in a format of 80 characters per row with a maximum of 24 rows The characters are displayed in five-by-seven dot arrays, but characters in other formats may be displayed, as well as other images The screen 4 of the CRT is scanned with an interlaced scan raster of 525 lines at a horizontal rate of 15 734 K Hz and a vertical rate of 59 94 Hz The invention uses the address information generated for the characters to provide addresses of a plurality of segments defined for the screen 4 of the CRT 2.
The screen 4 of the CRT 2, in the preferred embodiment, is segmented into 20 horizontal increments in 24 vertical rows, being therefore divided into 480 segments, which for a CRT of a size commonly used in display units would mean that each segment defines an area approximately one-half inch long by one-third of an inch high Each segment is defined by a horizontal and vertical address indicativerof its horizontal and vertical coordinates, and these addresses are supplied to the PRO Ms 26 and 27 of the convergence correction circuitry (see Figures 1 and 2) as the screen 4 of the CRT is scanned.
In a similar manner the screen is further subdivided for the character display information so that an address is dedicated to each of the possible character locations that might be displayed upon the entire screen 4 of CRT 2 For the 80 x 24 character format arrangement described above, this means that 1,920 character addresses are necessary Because the character locations are smaller than the segments defined for the convergence circuitry, more than one character location will correspond to each segment In the present embodiment the character addresses are defined by seven bits of horizontal information and five bits of vertical information.
The convergence circuitry therefore uses only the five most significant bits of the 7-bit horizontal character address and all five bits of the 5-bit vertical character address as the inputs to the programmable read-only memories (PRO Ms) 26 and 27, respectively 70 The convergence correction circuit is shown schematically in Figure 2 It consists of two PRO Ms each of 32 eight-bit locations, addressed by a 5-bit input address One PROM, 26, is dedicated to horizontal address information, 75 and the other, 27, is dedicated to vertical address information As the screen 4 of the CRT 2 is scanned, the five most significant bits of the horizontal and all five bits of the vertical address are used to address the respec 80 tive PRO Ms, producing an 8-bit output from each Only four bits of each 8-bit output will be used for convergence correction in the quadrant being scanned, the other four bits of each 8-bit output producing + 5 volt digital-to 85 analog converter output, which does not affect the subsequent circuits, as will be described more fully below The outputs from the PRO Ms 26 and 27 correspond to left or right, or top or bottom, respectively, and effectively produce 90 4-bit outputs, which correspond to the coordinates of each of the convergence correction segments within each of the quadrants of the screen 4 of the CRT 2 Depending upon where the raster scan is at any moment, the outputs 95 of the PRO Ms 26 and 27 will provide convergence correction signals for the segment being addressed.
The 8-bit outputs of each of the horizontal and vertical PRO Ms, 26 and 27, each provide 100 a 4-bit input to two digital-to-analog converters (DAC) 28,30 and 29, 31, respectively, the four digital-to-analog converters corresponding to the portions of the PRO Ms that are dedicated to the left, right, top, and bottom halves of the 105 CRT face 4 The respective outputs of the digital-to-analog converters are connected to analog circuitry 32, 33 and 35 for each of the three convergence correction coils 20, 22 and 18 In this manner analog signals are produced for 110 deflecting the electron beam of each colour gun for each convergence correction segment, so that the convergence of the beams can be controlled over the entire face of the tube The circuitry is such that the resultant analog signals 115 can be adjusted for each colour for each half of the tube face, independently.
These signals are applied to amplifier-driver circuits 36, 41 and 43, which provide the drive currents to the convergence correction coils 20, 120 22 and 18 of the colour guns A feedback signal produced by each amplifier-driver circuit is applied by a feedback path 38, 45, 47 to the summing junction of its analog circuitry 32, 33 and 35, and ensures that the correction coil 125 current is proportional to the respective resultant analog signal.
The convergence correction coils 20, 22 and 18, are mounted in a yoke 8, which can be seen in Figure 4 It should be noted that the yoke 8 130 1 586045 is positioned after the colour guns 10, and before the deflection yoke 12, so that convergence correction is applied to the electron beams before deflection by the deflection yoke 12 The mounting position of the convergence correction coils 18, 20 and 22 with respect to the colour guns 10 can be seen in Figure 7.
Typically the coils are spaced 1200 apart to correspond to the colour gun 10 placement, however they can be positioned in any other manner to correspond to other colour gun arrangements Figure 6 further shows a typical convergence correction coil 18 and how it is positioned with respect to an individual colour gun 10 and the neck 14 of CRT 2.
Because the basic circuitry for each of the three convergence correction coils 18, 20 and 22 is substantially similar, the sequence of events which occurs during a scan of the CRT will be described for only the red convergence coil 20 Further, the sequence of events will be described for a single convergence correction segment, recognizing that the same sequence of events will occur for each and every segment defined for the screen 4 of the CRT 2.
Referring to Figures 1 and 2, five bits of digital information corresponding to the respective horizontal and vertical coordinates for the segment are applied to address the horizontal and vertical PRO Ms 26 and 27 Assuming that the segment in question being scanned is in the upper left-hand quadrant, a digital output will be produced from the horizontal PROM 26 indicative of the left half of the screen 4, and a digital output from the vertical PROM 27 will be produced indicative of the top half of the screen 4.
The 4-bit output of the horizontal PROM 26 is applied to the left digital-to-analog converter 28, and the 4-bit output of the vertical PROM 27 is applied to the top digital-to-analog converter 29 The four digital-to-analog converters 28, 30, 29 and 31 are identical, in that each consists of four resistors, each connected from one output of its PROM to a common point, which, as will appear below, is connected through other resistors to a voltage source at + 5 V The resistor value for each bit position is approximately twice that for the next more significant bit position Depending upon the resistance combination selected by the output of the PROM, a voltage will be generated at the common point, constituting the output of the digital-to-analog converter In the preferred embodiment this voltage will typically vary between + 4 1 volts and + 5 0 volts in the manner as shown in Figures 3 a, 3 b, 3 c and 3 d for digital-to-analog converters 28, 30, 29 and 31, respectively Pin cushion correction may be added at this point, as indicated in the Figures The analog voltages which correspond to the segment under inspection, generated by the top and left digital-to-analog converters 29 and 28, are applied to voltage dividers 50 and 54 of the analog means 32, corresponding to the top-left indication for the red convergence coil 20 The outputs of the right and bottom digital-to-analog converters 30 and 31, as seen in Figures 3 b and 3 d, will be at a + 5 volts during the scan of the top-left quadrant, and will not affect the convergence cor 70 rection.
The four voltage dividers used in each of the three analog means 32, 33 and 35 each consist of a potentiometer connected between the output of the respective digital-to-analog 75 converter and a + 5 volt DC source The potentiometer slider is connected, through a resistor, to a summing junction 49 for the centre, left, right, top and bottom potentiometer voltages The potentiometers and fixed 80 resistors used in the voltage dividers of the present embodiment have the values shown in Figure 1 These potentiometers enable adjustment to be made independently to the convergence correction signals for each colour, the 85 adjustment for each of the three convergence coils 18, 20 and 22 being independent of the adjustment of the two other convergence coils.
The voltage at the summing junction 49 is applied to an operational amplifier 56, com 90 pared with a reference voltage of + 5 volts, and the difference, of the order of 2 mv, is amplified and applied through a voltage divider 57, to the base of a transistor 58, which drives the red convergence correction coil 20 95 The convergence correction coil 20 is connected between a +SOV source and the collector of the driver transistor 58 in parallel with a resistor 59 This resistor has the same value for each of the convergence correction coils, and serves 100 to damp the coil The currents through the coils 20, 22 and 18 and consequently the magnetic field produced, will depend on the base voltages of the associated transistors Q,, Q 2 and Q 3 It is the variation of the magnetic field of the con 105 vergence coil that provides the correction to the respective electron beam, prior to the deflection of all of the electron beams by the deflection yoke 12.
The emitter of the transistor 58 which con 110 trols the current to the convergence correction coil 20, is connected in a feedback arrangement through a parallel resistance-capacitance combination 38 to the summing junction 49 The emitter of transistor 58 is also connected 115 through a resistor 40 to a + 5 volt DC source, to cause the voltage at the summing junction 49 to be held within a few millivolts of the reference voltage of the operational amplifier 56, which also is at + 5 volts In this manner 120 the operating point of transistor 58 is stabilized, and this ensures that the operating current of the convergence correction coil 20 results only from the analog signals produced by the PRO Ms 125 While the typical sequence of events which takes place during the scanning of the face of the CRT has been described with reference to the red convergence coil 20 and a segment in the top-left quadrant, it must be recognised 130 1 586045 that a similar sequence of events occurs for each and every segment, for each of the individual convergence coils 18, 20 and 22 as the face 4 of CRT 2 is scanned.
Referring to Figures 3 a and 3 b, the typical waveshapes of the analog voltages produced at the outputs of the respective horizontal digitalto-analog converters 28 and 30 can be seen to vary in ten voltage steps from + 4 1 volts to + 5 volts, and then from + 5 volts back down to + 4.1 volts in ten similar steps as the screen 4 of the CRT is scanned from left to right over the horizontal segments The waveshapes of the outputs of the vertical digital-to-analog converters 29 and 31 (see Figures 3 c and 3 d) are similar to that of the horizontal digital-to-analog converters 28 and 30, except that the outputs vary in twelve voltage steps from + 4 1 volts to + 5 volts and then from + 5 volts back down in twelve similar steps to + 4 1 volts as the screen 4 of the CRT 2 is scanned from top to bottom over the 24 rows.
It should be noted that the voltage levels of the steps correspond to the sixteen possible outputs of the four bits of digital data produced by PRO Ms 26 and 27, and that the rise and fall times for the horizontal waveshapes, Figures 3 a and 3 b, are faster than the rise and fall times for the vertical waveshapes, Figures 3 c and 3 d; where the rise and fall times correspond to the time for the outputs to vary between + 4 1 volts and + 5 0 volts This results from the fact that the horizontal scan occurs at 15 734 K Hz and the vertical scan occurs at 59 94 Hz It should be noted that the specific parabolic waveshapes generated as the outputs of the digital-to-analog converters can be varied by varying the program content of the PRO Ms and/or the resistance values selected for the digital-to-analog converters.
The accuracy of the convergence can also be increased by increasing the number of segments to be addressed Increasing the number of segments, however, would require a corresponding increase in the size of PRO Ms 26 and 27; for the convergence required in the preferred embodiment the 8 x 32 PRO Ms are sufficient.
Referring again to Figure 1, the independent adjustment of the individual colour guns 10 is achieved because the convergence control circuitry for each of the three colour guns 10 is independent of the control circuitry for the other two colour guns This independence is achieved in that the individual analog control for each colour gun 10 relies upon the outputs of PRO Ms 26 and 27; which provide effective analog voltages to only two of the voltage dividers of each of the analog means 32, 33 and 35 at all times; and which voltage waveshapes are unique, depending upon which quadrant is selected Only the voltage dividers corresponding to the quadrant being scanned can affect that quadrant Therefore, if the top-left quadrant is being scanned and adjustment is desired for the red convergence, only adjustment to the top 54 and left 50 voltage dividers will effect the red electron beam The right and bottom voltage dividers will have no net voltage developed across them, since the outputs of the left 28 and bottom 31 digital-to-analog converters will 70 each be at + 5 volts, and will therefore not affect the top-left quadrant.
The amount of adjustment is greatly reduced from the previously used techniques, in which LRC circuits with diodes were used In the 75 previous techniques it was required to make several iterative adjustments to the LRC circuitry to approach a best approximation, but each adjustment affected the other adjustments and therefore the process was very slow and tedious 80 The present invention, however, permits the adjustment of the appropriate potentiometer for top or bottom, or right or left Then by making a second adjustment, convergence for a specific quadrant can be achieved It should 85 be recognised that the convergence will correspond to the quadrant being scanned, since the 8-bit outputs of the PRO Ms 26 and 27 will affect only the two voltage dividers of each of the analog means 32, 33 and 35, which corres 90 pond to the quadrant being scanned The convergence correction can, in this manner, be adjusted for each colour gun 10 and each quadrant without affecting the adjustment of the other colour guns 95 The circuitry of the present invention also provides for convergence correction control at the centre of the CRT This is achieved by connecting an additional centering voltage divider 34, 37 and 39 to the summing junction of the 100 analog circuits 32, 33 and 35 The voltage divider for centering consists of a 100 ohm potentiometer connected to a + 5 volt DC source on one side and grounded through a resistance of 680 ohms on the other side, and having the 105 slider of the potentiometer connected to the summing junction 49 through a resistance of 3.9 K ohms This makes it possible to achieve convergence at the centre of the screen, since the PRO Ms 26 and 27 do not provide a digital 110 output when the scan is at the centre of the screen.
Referring to Figures 6 and 7, the convergence correction coils can be seen in their relationship to the colour guns 10 and to the neck 14 of the 115 CRT It should be noted that only a single coil is required to provide the necessary convergence correction for each colour gun, and it is therefore no longer necessary to provide individual convergence correction coils for the horizontal 120 and the vertical correction for each of the colour guns 10.
It should be noted that the convergence correction coils 18, 20 and 22 of the present invention each have a variable permanent mag 125 net 24 built into the core of the coil The variable permanent magents 24 permit adjustment to obtain a steady field for each of the convergence coils and are typically set when making the centering adjustments, and are not changed 130 1 586045 thereafter.
