Abstract:
A multivibrator circuit comprising a base bias-supplying circuit for a transistor which is connected with at least one diode in parallel with a resistor for obtaining stable temperature and voltage characteristics. This resistor serves to overcome the problem of the cessation of variations in bias voltage directly proportional to the supply voltage which is caused by the insertion of the diode. Thus it is possible to start and stop oscillation of the multivibrator circuit even when the supply voltage is reduced to a considerably lower voltage.
Abstract:
A synchronizing signal separating circuit provided with a noise gating circuit, the gating period of which is sufficiently long compared with the pulse width of the input signal to the input terminal and which reliably suppresses noise. The noise gating circuit does not use any capacitor but consists of a Darlington circuit, which is very convenient for manufacturing the synchronizing signal separating circuit as an integrated semiconductor circuit.
Abstract:
A multivibrator circuit comprising two transistors and a capacitor connected across the collector and base of one of the transistors. The said capacitor serves to extend the time required for the reversal of current into a capacitor determining the oscillation frequency of the multivibrator to thereby prevent the generation of high frequency noise.

1294617 Television MATSUSHITA ELECTRONICS CORP 10 May 1971 14065/71 Heading H4F A sync. from video signal separating circuit comprises a sync. separating transistor 1 having its base connected to an input terminal 2 and emitter to ground with either the base (as shown) or the emitter (Fig. 5, not shown) self-biased by a capacitor 6 and a resistor 7, together with a noise gating circuit 10 comprising a Darlington circuit the collector-emitter path of transistor 12 being connected between the input terminal 2 and ground and being rendered conductive by a signal applied at terminal 9, which signal has been amplitude detected from the video signal applied at input 2 and comprises only noise signals having amplitudes greater than that of the sync. signal. The gating period of the Darlington circuit is sufficiently long to completely cover the noise pulse width at input 2 and thus prevent overcharging at the capacitor 6 of the self-biasing circuit. The complete circuit may be included in an integrated semi-conductor circuit.
Abstract:
An astable multi-vibrator employed in a vertical oscillator requiring a short duty cycle. It comprises two main transistors, one of which has the emitter connected to a resistor, which is in turn shunted by a resistance lower than its resistance during a period constituting the duty cycle, whereby the duty cycle may be reduced without increasing power consumption.

Abstract:
A chrominance saturation control circuit to permit indirect or DC mode control of chrominance saturation. The connection between the chrominance saturation control knob in a television receiver and the chrominance saturation control circuit can be achieved through wiring which transmits only DC voltage. With this DC controlled chrominance saturation control, the television set may be made less susceptible to external interference compared to the case of using a shielded wiring for directly controlling the chrominance saturation.
Abstract:
A chrominance amplifier circuit, adapted to be formed in a monolithic integrated circuit, in which an automatic gain control function is performed by a circuit arrangement containing no capacitor, the automatic gain control function having no influence on the bandwidth characteristic of the amplifier so that the chrominance amplification operation can be stably performed.
