Abstract: A deflection apparatus for a raster scanned cathode ray tube display, the apparatus comprising: a ramp generator having a flyback circuit including a first inductor connected in series with a first transistor switch, the first transistor switch being responsive to a line drive signal to alternately open and close a current path through the first inductor between a first voltage level and a second voltage level lower than the first voltage level to generate a raster scan current signal in a deflection coil of the display, the amplitude of the raster scan current signal being determined as a function of the first voltage level and the frequency of the line drive switching signal, and a boost circuit connected to the flyback circuit, the boost circuit comprising a second inductor connected in series with a second transistor switch, the second transistor switch being responsive to a pulse signal synchronized to the line drive signal to alternately open and close a current path through the second inductor between the second voltage level and a third voltage level higher than the second voltage level to generate the first voltage level, the first voltage level being determined as a function of the third voltage level and the width of the pulses of the pulse signal; and a regulator connected to the flyback circuit and the boost circuit for varying the width of the pulses of the pulse signal as a function of the amplitude of the line scan signal to maintain a constant raster line width as the frequency of the line drive signal is varied.

Abstract: A cathode ray tube display having reduced electric field emissions comprising a cathode ray tube 100, an element 200 for detecting modulations in the final anode voltage of the CRT, the signal not being directly dependent on the deflection driving means 115. A matching network 205 provides phase and gain correction to the signal from element 200, amplification means 210 receives the signal from network 205 and an emission means 215 radiates a cancelling electric field dependent on the modulations detected by said element 200.

Abstract: Synchronisation apparatus comprises a phase-locked loop (46) for generating an output signal (P) and for synchronising the output signal (P) to an input signal (HSYNC). A controller (44,45) iteratively determines whether the output signal (P) is synchronised to the input signal (HSYNC) by the phase-locked loop (46) and adjusting the frequency of the output signal (P) to locate the output signal (P) within the capture range of the phase-locked loop if the output signal (P) is not synchronised to the input signal (HSYNC). The apparatus can thus maintain the output signal (P) in synchronisation with the input signal (HSYNC) despite large step changes in the frequency of the input signal extending beyond the limits of the capture range of the phase-locked loop. The apparatus is therefore especially useful in display devices for computer systems that can generate video signals corresponding to a number of different display formats.

Abstract: An interrupt-driven processor system comprising a processor 10 connected via a plurality of processor input and output lines to an input means 20 in the form of a keypad or keyboard. Actuation of one of the keys of the input means generates an interrupt signal on one of the input lines which invokes an interrupt service routine in the processor. In accordance with the invention, a secondary interrupt source can be attached to each of the input lines with the interrupt service routine being designed to discriminate between an interrupt signal generated by actuation of a key and an interrupt signal generated by a secondary source. Using this technique, further interrupts can be added to an off-the-shelf processor including keypad interrupts without the need for additional interrupt controlling hardware. Furthermore, a custom-built microprocessor can be designed with fewer interrupt pins.

Abstract: A data processing network comprises a plurality of client systems (30,32,34,36) and a controlling server system (20) operable to issue wake-up requests to the client systems to cause them to issue boot requests onto the network for servicing by a connected server system. The controlling system, which may be embodied in the server system or in a separate system issues the wake-up requests in accordance with a wake-up schedule calculated, for each client, to complete the boot process for that client before a target start-up time when that client user normally uses the client system.
