Diagram 13 Slow Sweep & Ext Horiz Input
The External Horizontal Input Amplifier is a non-inverting amplifier that inputs
a ramp voltage of
a ramp voltage of
≈
5 volts to produce a 10-division sweep ramp.
The Slow Sweep Ramp Generator produces a ramp that is triggered by an APL
change through 50%, or free-runs after about 10 seconds when no trigger has
occurred. AGC video is sent from the Reference Sync Separator to detect APL
changes. The internal reference is required to have the Sync Separator receive the
same signal displayed on the CRT.

Ext. Horizontal Input Amplifier. Whenever the /EXT HORZ EN is high (not
enabled) Q1595 is turned on and all signal current is returned to the –2.2 volt
supply. In addition, when the line is low the Output Amplifier is pulled down
enough to back bias the switching diode at the input to the Mag Amplifier on
Diagram 11.

The amplifier itself is a non-inverting amplifier with a gain of
≈
4.5. Gain is
determined by the current flowing in the emitter of Q1594. CR1593 and CR1597
