The gain of this stage can be adjusted (

25%) de-
pending on its register value.
The mean value of this ramp is driven by its own

Usually V
OUT
is sent through a resistive divider to
the inverting input of the booster. Since VPOS de-
rives from V
REF-V
,
the bias voltage sent to the non-
inverting input of the booster should also derive
from V
REF-V
to optimize the accuracy
(see
Figure 14
).

14.3.3 - Basic Equations
As a first approximation, the amplitude of the ramp
on Pin 7 (VOUT) is calculated as follows:
V

- VPOS = (V

) x
(1 + 0.25 (V

))
where :

DCMID
= 7/16 x V

Pin 5, typically 3.6V)

= -1 as minimum vertical amplitude register
value and +1 as maximum value.
VPOS is calculated according to:
VPOS = V

)
where V
P
= -1 and +1 as respectively minimum
and maximum vertical position register value.

14.3.4 - Geometric Corrections
The principle is represented in
Figure 15
.
Starting from the vertical ramp, a parabola-shaped
current is generated for E/W correction (also
known as Pin Cushion correction), dynamic hori-
zontal phase control correction.
The parabola generator consists of an analog mul-
tiplier, the output current of which is equal to :
I = k x
(
V
OUT
-
V
DCMID
)
2
where V
OUT
is the vertical output ramp (typically
between 2 and 5 V) and V
DCMID
is 3.6 V
(for V
REF-V
= 8.2V). The VOUT sawtooth is typical-
ly centered on 3.6 V. By changing the vertical po-
sition, the sawtooth shifts by
±
0.4 V.
The "geometry tracking" feature ensures a correct
screen geometry for any end user adjustment. It
generates non-symmetric parabola dependent on
the vertical position. To avoid Vertical EHT com-
pensation (VBreathing) from affecting the geome-
try correction, an additional Buffer Amplifier is
used for VBreathing.
