Abstract
Abstract A pulse generator which can be applied to a horizontal deflection circuit and/or a vertical deflection circuit of a television set and of which almost all parts can be easily manufactured in a single IC (Integrated Circuit) chip has been found. A capacitor in an integrator circuit is charged and discharged alternately. The voltage across said capacitor and a second voltage, which is controlled by said voltage across said capacitor, are compared with a predetermined voltage. According to the result of the comparison, the capacitor is charged or discharged and, thus, a pulse oscillation is provided.
