Abstract

Abstract A vertical convergence circuit comprises a single saw-tooth waveform voltage source in a vertical deflection circuit, a variable resistor for regulation of the amplitude of a parabolic current which applies a saw-tooth waveform voltage to one terminal of a convergence coil circuit, and a variable resistor for tilt regulation of a parabolic current which applies a pulsive voltage obtained by differentiating a saw-tooth waveform voltage to the other terminal of the convergence coil circuit.
