In connection with the conventional dynamic focusing circuit as described above, the amplitude of the lamp signal CS which is the sawtooth waveform is about 2.5 V, as shown in FIG. 2A, when the frequency of the vertical synchronization(Sync) signal is low(about 50Hz) and the amplitude of the lamp signal CS is about 2.5 V, as shown in FIG. 2B, when the frequency of the vertical synchronization(Sync) signal is high(about 120Hz).

The other end of the resistor 115 is grounded.
Further, output side cf the amplifier 113 Is coupled to the oscillator 120 for converting the frequency of the pulse signal to frequency of the first lamp signal CS1 and for outputting an oscillating signal. The output side of the oscillator 120 is coupled to one end of a resistor 131 of the switching signal generating unit 130 for bypassing the oscillating signal, and the other end of the resistor 131 is connected to one end of a capacitor 132 for integrating the oscillating signal and for outputting the switching signal.
And the other end of the capacitor 132 is grounded.
One end of the capacitor 132 is connected to one end of a resistor 133 for bypassing the switching signal, and other end of the resistor 133 is connected to the base of a transistor 141 of the second lamp signal generating unit 140 for switching on and off.
Furthermore, the output side of the buffer is connected to the positive side(+) of an amplifier 142 for amplifying the first lamp signal CS1. One end of the resistors 143 and 144 are connected to the emitter side of the transistor 141 and the collector side of the transistor 141, and one end of a resistor 145 is connected between the negative side(-) of the amplifier 142 and the output side of the amplifier 142. The amplifying degree of the amplifier 142 is determined by the resistances of the resistors 143, 144 and 145. And the other end of each the resistors 143 and 144 is grounded.
In the meantime, the vertical dynamic focusing signal generating section 200 includes amplifiers 211 and 221, resistors 212-215, 222-225, 231, 233-234 and 237, capacitors 226, 228 236 and 238, a transistor 232, and diode 235, as shown in FIG. 1.
In connection with this embodiment of the present invention construction as above, the operation and effect of the vertical dynamic focusing circuit for a monitor will be described with reference to the accompany drawings.
FIG. 5A to FIG. 5N are waveform timing diagrams to aid in explaining the operation of the vertical dynamic focusing circuit for a monitor according to one embodiment of the present invention. The amplitude of the first lamp signal CSl which is the sawtooth waveform is about 2.5 V, as shown in FIG. 5A, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is low(about 50Hz) and the amplitude of the lamp signal CS is about 2.5 V, as shown in FIG. 5B, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is high(about 120Hz).
Such first lamp signal CSl is supplied to the buffer 111 of the pulse signal converting unit 110, so the buffer 111 delays the output of the first lamp signal CS1. The output signal of the buffer 111 is supplied to the amplifier 113 through the resistor 112.
The first voltage Vccl is supplied to the resistors 114 and 115, so the resistors 114 and 115 divide the first voltage Vccl and the divided voltage is supplied to the amplifier 113.
The amplifier 113 amplifies the output signal of the resistor 112 in accordance with the divided voltage and outputs the pulse signal. The amplitude of the pulse signal is shown in FIG. SC, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is about 50Hz. And the amplitude of the pulse signal is shown in FIG. 5D when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is about 120Hz.
The pulse signal and the first voltage ccl are supplied to an oscillator 120, so the oscillator 120 converts the frequency of the pulse signal corresponding to the frequency of the first lamp signal and outputs the oscillating signal.
At that time, the oscillating signal is shown in FIG. SE when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is about 50Hz, and the oscillating signal is shown in FIG. 5F when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is about 120Hz.
The oscillating signal is supplied to the capacitor 32 through the resistor 131 of the switching signal generating unit 130, so the capacitor 132 integrates the oscillating signal and outputs the switching signal. The amplitude of the switching signal is about 0.6V, as shown in FIG. 5G, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is about 50Hz. And the amplitude of the switching signal is about 1.2V, as shown in FIG. 5H, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is approximately 120Hz.
Further, the switching signal is supplied to the base side of the transistor 142 through the resistor 133. Since the amplitude of the switching signal is about C.6V when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is approximately 50Hz, the transistor 142 switches off.
In the meantime, the amplifier 143 which receives the first lamp signal CSl amplifies the first lamp signal and outputs the second lamp signal CS2. At that time, the amplifying degree of the amplifier 142 is determined by the resistance with the resistors 144 and 145.
In other words, the amplitude of the second lamp signal CS2 is proportional to the value of (1+ R144/R145). At that tie, the amplitude of the second lamp signal CS2 is about 2.5V, as shown in FIG. SI, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is approximately 50Hz. Here, the R144 and R145 are the resistance of the resistors 144 and 145, respectively.
However, since the amplitude of the switching signal is about 1.2V when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is approximately 120Hz, the transistor 142 switches on.
In the meantime, the amplifier 143 which receives the first lamp signal CSl amplifies the first lamp signal and outputs the second lamp signal CS2. At that time, the mplifying degree of the amplifier 142 is determined by the resistance with the resistors 143, 144 and 145. In other words, the amplitude of the second lamp signal CS2 is proportional to a value of a T1, as shown in equation 1.
Equation 1) R145 > c(R143+R144)) R143xR144 At that time, the amplitude of the second lamp signal CS2 s about 3V, as shown in FIG. 5J, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is approximately 120Hz. Here, the R143, R144, and R145 are the resistances of the resistors 143, 144 and 145, respectively.
Therefore, the amplitude of the second lamp signal CS2 when the vertical sync signal is about 50Hz is more than that of the second lamp signal CS2 when the vertical sync signal is about 50Hz.
Such second lamp signal CS2 is supplied to the amplifier 211 of the amplifying unit 210 through the resistor R and the capacitor C, so the amplifier 211 amplifies the output signal of the resistor R in accordance with the magnitude of the voltage Vcc and the resistances of the resistors 212 and 213.
The amplifying degree of the amplifier 211 is determined by the resistances of the resistors 214 and 215.
The amplified signal of the amplifier 211 is supplied to the amplifier 221 through the resistor 215, so the amplifier 221 rectifies the amplified signal of the amplifier 221 in accordance with a limit voltage which is set by the resistance with the resistors 222 and 223.
The output signal of the amplifier 221 is supplied to the resistor 225 and the capacitor 226 through the resistor 224, so the resistor 225 and the capacitor 226 integrate the output signal of the amplifier 221 and generate an integrating signal of parabola. The amplifying degree of the integrating signal is determined by the capacitance of the capacitor 227.
The amplitude of the integrating signal is about 11.8V, as shown in FIG. 5K, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is low(about 50Hz). And amplitude of the integrating signal is about llV, as shown in FIG. 5L, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is about 120Hz.
The integrating signal of the amplifier 221 is supplied to the capacitor 228, so the capacitor blocks the direct component of the output signal of the amplifier 221. The output signal of the capacitor 228 is supplied to the resistor 231 through the resistor 229, so the resistor 231 superimposes the output signal of the capacitor 228 on the first voltage Vcc. And the superimposed signal is supplied to the transistor 232 of the superimposing unit 230.
The transistor 232 inverts and amplifies the superimposed signal. The amplifying degree is determined by the resistances of the resistors 233 and 234.
In the meantime, the direct voltage DC supplied from the flyback transformer is supplied to a diode 235, so the diode 235 rectifies the output signal of the flyback transformer.
The output voltage of the diode 235 is supplied to the capacitor 236, so the capacitor smooths the output voltage of the capacitor 236.
Further, the output voltage of the capacitor 236 is superimposed on the output signal of the transistor 232 supplied through the resistor 237, and the superimposed signal is supplied to the capacitor 238, so the capacitor 38 smooths the superimposed signal and outputs a vertical dynamic focusing signal.
The amplitude of the vertical dynamic focusing signal is about 150V, as shown in FIG. 5M, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is about 50Hz. And amplitude of the vertical dynamic focusing signal is about 130V, as shown in FIG. 5N, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is about 120Hz.
The vertical dynamic focusing signal of the capacitor 38 is supplied.to a mixing unit M, so the mixing unit M mixes the vertical dynamic focusing signal of the capacitor 38 to the horizontal dynamic focusing signal. The mixed signal is supplied to the grid terminal of the CRT.
Hence, the amplitude of the vertical dynamic focusing signal becomes constant regardless of the frequency of the vertical sync signal.

The operation and effect of another embodiment of the present invention as constructed above will be described with reference to the attached drawings.
FIG. 7A to FIG. 7J are waveform timing diagrams to aid in explaining the operation of the dynamic focusing circuit for a monitor according to another embodiment of the present invention.
To begin with, the vertical sync signal Vs is supplied to a microprocessor 310, so the microprocessor 310 receives the vertical sync signal Vs and outputs the pulse signal. At that time, the pulse signal is shown in FIG. 7A when the frequency of the vertical sync signal Vs is about 50Hz, and the pulse signal is shown in FIG. 7B when the frequency of the vertical sync signal Vs is about 120Hz.
In the meantime, the third voltage Vcc3 is supplied to the resistors 322 and 323, so the resistors 322 and 323 divide the third voltage Vcc3 and output the dividing voltage. The dividing voltage and pulse signal are superimposed and output Xhe superimposed signal. The amplitude of the superimposed signal is about 4V, as shown in FIG. 7C, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal Vs is about 50Hz. And the amplitude of the superimposed signal is about 3V, as shown in FIG. 7D when the frequency of the vertical sync signal Vs is about 120Hz.
The superimposed signal is supplied to the capacitor 325 through the resistor 324, so the capacitor 325 integrates the superimposed signal and outputs the switching signal. And the switching signal is supplied to the amplifier 326, so the amplifier 326 amplifies the switching signal. Here, the amplifying degree of the amplifier 326 is determined by the resistances of the resistors 327 and 328.
Since the amplitude of the switching signal is about 4V when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is approximately 50Hz, the transistor 332 switches off.
In the meantime, the amplifier 333 which receives the first lamp signal CS1 amplifies the first lamp signal and outputs the second lamp signal CS2. At that time, the amplifying degree of the amplifier 333 is determined by the resistance with the resistors 334 and 336.
In other words, the amplitude of the second lamp signal CS2 is proportional to a value of the (1+ (R336/R334)). At that time, the amplitude of the second lamp signal CS2 is about 2.5V, as shown in FIG. 7E, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is approximately 50Hz. Here, the R334 and R 336 are the resistances of the resistors 334 and 336, respectively.
However, since the amplitude of the switching signal is about 3V when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is approximately 120Hz, the transistor 333 switches on.
Therefore, the amplifying degree of the amplifier 333 is determined by the resistance with the resistors 334, 335 and 336.
In other words, the amplitude of the second lamp signal CS2 is proportional to a value of a T, as shown in equantion 2.
Equation 2) 1+(R336X(R334+R335)) R334x R335 At that time, the amplitude of the second lamp signal CS2 is about 3V, as shown in FIG. 7F, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is approximately 120Hz. Here, the R334, R335 and R336 are the resistances of the resistors 334, 335 and 336, respectively.
Therefore, the amplitude of the second lamp signal CS2 when the vertical sync signal is about 50Hz is more than that of the second lamp signal CS2 when the vertical sync signal is about 50Hz.
Such second lamp signal CS2 is supplied to the amplifier 211 of the amplifying unit 210 through the resistor R and the capacitor C, so the amplifier 211 amplifies the output signal cf the resistor R in accordance with the magnitude of the voltage Vcc and the resistances of the resistors 212 and 213.
The amplifying degree of the amplifier 211 is determined by the resistances of the resistors 213 and 214.
The amplified signal of the amplifier 211 is supplied to the amplifier 221 through the resistor 215, so the amplifier 221 rectifies the amplified signal of the amplifier 221 in accordance with a limit voltage which is set by the resistances with the resistors 222 and 223.
The output signal of the amplifier 221 is supplied to the resistor 225 and the capacitor through the resistor 224, so the resistor 225 and the capacitor 226 integrate the output signal of the amplifier 221 and generate an integrating signal of parabola. The amplifying degree of the integrating signal is determined by the capacitance of the capacitor 227.
The amplitude of the integrating signal is about 11.8V, as shown in FIG. 7G, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is low(about 50Hz). And amplitude of the integrating signal is about 11V, as shown in FIG. 7H, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is about 120Hz.
The integrating signal of the amplifier 221 is supplied to the capacitor 228, so the capacitor blocks the direct component of the output signal of the amplifier 221. The output signal of the capacitor is supplied to the resistor 231 through the resistor 229, so the resistor 231 superimposes the output signal of the capacitor 228 on the first voltage Vcc.
And the superimposed signal is supplied to the transistor 232 of the superimposing unit 230.
The transistor 232 inverts and amplifies the superimposed signal. The amplifying degree is determined by the resistances of the resistors 233 and 234.
In the meantime, the direct voltage DC supplied from the flyback transformer is supplied to the diode 235, so the diode 235 rectifies the output signal of flyback transformer. The output voltage of the diode 235 is supplied to the capacitor 236, so the capacitor smooths the output voltage of the capacitor 236.
Further, the output voltage of the capacitor 236 is superimposed to the output signal of the transistor 232 supplied through the resistor 237, and the superimposed signal is supplied to the capacitor 238, so the capacitor 38 smooths the superimposed signal and outputs a vertical dynamic focusing signal.
The amplitude of the vertical dynamic focusing signal is about 150V, as shown in FIG. 71, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is about 50Hz. And amplitude of the vertical dynamic focusing signal is about 130V, as shown in FIG. 7J, when the frequency of the vertical sync signal is about 120Hz.
The vertical dynamic focusing signal of the capacitor 38 is supplied to the mixing unit M, so mixing unit M mixes the vertical dynamic focusing signal of the capacitor 38 to the horizontal dynamic focusing signal. The mixed signal is supplied to the grid terminal of the CRT.
Accordingly, the amplitude of the vertical dynamic focusing signal becomes constant regardless of the frequency of the vertical sync signal.
By employing the vertical dynamic focusing circuit for a monitor according to the embodiments of the present invention, the first lamp signal is amplified when the frequency of the vertical sync signal and the vertical dynamic focusing signal are generated in accordance with the amplified first lamp signal. Therefore, the vertical dynamic focusing signal becomes constant regardless of the frequency of the vertical sync signal, so the electron beam is focused at the edge of the picture, thereby the quality of picture can be enhanced.
While an embodiment of the present invention has been particularly shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be affected therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims. For instance, while the preferred embodiments of the present invention herein are described for a monitor, the present invention may be applied to every video signal processing system such as general VCRs.
