    Abstract: Arc-over in the cathode ray tube (21) of a digital television receiver produces a large current pulse which, when it discharges via the chassis ground, disrupts the reference ground potentials of other circuitry coupled to the chassis ground. The affected circuitry includes digital data storage elements which may experience random state changes caused by the fluctuating ground potential. The CRT arc-over condition is detected by circuitry (460-466) which applies a pulse to the reset terminal of a microprocessor (440), causing it to restore the potentially corrupted data in the data storage elements using preset data stored in a less volatile programmable read only memory (452).

    Abstract: A beam current limiting (BCL) control apparatus for a digital television system includes a control unit (31) for reducing excessive beam currents, by controlling an analog-to-digital control means (3a) for the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) (3), which converts an analog composite video signal, including both luminance and chrominance components, to corresponding digital samples. The analog-to-digital control means (3a) can fulfil its function by controlling the reference voltage for the ADC (3). A switching circuit (33) may be included for preventing the reference voltage from being changed in response to the beam current during horizontal blanking intervals so as to inhibit interference with digital synchronization component detection and automatic chrominance control. A clamping circuit (35) is coupled to the ADC (3) to inhibit the conversion of portions of the composite video signal extending from the black level (0 IRE umts) to the sync tips from being affected by the BCL operation. This inhibits the BCL operation from adversely affecting the reproduction of details in dark portions of an image.
