Amplitude Correction
To vary horizontal amplitude, it is necessary to vary a sawtooth wave current flowing into the deflection coil. These are two methods to vary the current; a method which varies LH by connecting a variable inductance L in series with the deflection yoke, and a method which varies power supply voltage (across 
As the DPC circuits is used in the this chassis, the later method which varies the deflection yoke power supply volt- age by modifying the bus data is used.

Pictures are expanded at left and right ends of the screen  | 
even if a sawtooth current with good linearity flows in  | 
the deflection coil when deflection angle of a picture  | 
tube increases. This is because projected image sizes  | 
on the screen are different at screen center area and  | 
the circumference area as shown in Fig.   | 
press this expansion at the screen circumference, it is  | 
necessary to set the deflection angle q1 to a large value  | 
(rapidly deflecting the electron beam) at the screen  | 
center area, and to set the deflection angle q2 to a small  | 
value (scanning the electron beam slowly) at the cir-  | 
cumference area as shown in Fig.   |

value of CS and by generating a parabolic voltage de-  |

across the S capacitor, and by varying the deflection  | 
yoke voltage with the voltage, the scanning speed is  | 
decreased at beginning and end of the scanning, and  | 
increased at center area of the screen. The S curve cor-  | 
rection is carried out in this way, thereby obtaining  | 
pictures with good linearity. |
