9. Vertical Frequency Range (Pins 48, 51, 52)
The MC13081X vertical oscillator is an injection–lock
type. The device can handle vertical frequency from 45 Hz
to 100 Hz.
The internal ramp generator will generate a ramp output in
the absence of a V–Sync signal. Upon receiving an external
vertical sync pulse, the ramp up portion is forced to retrace,
and therefore, the vertical ramp output is synchronized with
incoming V–Sync.
The slope of the Vertical Ramp output is directly
proportional to the current flowing out of Pin 52. Half of this
current is used to charge up the Vertical Ramp Capacitor. As
the charging current is increased, so does the ramp slope.
External feedback can be provided from Pin 48 to Pins 51
and 52 for linearity adjustment.
10. Vertical Free Running Frequency (Pins 1, 2)
The purpose of the vertical oscillator is to maintain a
vertical ramp to the deflection circuitry in the event the
vertical sync is not present. Because of the injection–lock
type, the free running frequency must be lower than the
system’s lowest vertical frequency.
While various combinations of C4 and R9 can produce a
given frequency, it is recommended C4 be 0.1
μ
F in order to
obtain practical values for R9. The free running frequency
should be set at about 10% lower than the minimum
operating vertical frequency (54 Hz for a 60 Hz system).
R9 is then calculated from:
VCC– 1.4
96 x C4 x FV– 2.5 k
Connecting a potentiometer, (VR2) provides “Vertical
Hold” adjustment.

11. X–Ray Shutdown Protection (Pin 41)
The X–Ray input (Pin 41) permits shutting off the
horizontal drive, usually by external circuitry which monitors
faults within the high voltage supply, such as excess anode
current. This input is activated by taking it above
≈
0.6 V
which causes the drive transistor at Pin 43 to be turned on
(low) permanently by an internal latch.
An external resistor must be connected to Pin 41 to limit
the input current, and to assist with the latching action (see
Figure 11). 10 k
is a typical value, but the value can be
chosen based on the specifies of the driving circuit. The
external resistor reduces the sensitivity of Pin 41 to noise and
transients which may otherwise result in false latches.
To resume normal operation (after correction of the fault),
lower Pin 41 below 0.4 V. If the external circuit’s normal
operation does not take it below 0.4 V, but does take it below
0.6 V, then recycle VCC “off”–“on”. If the pin is not used, it
must be connected to ground.
The minimum holding current to keep the latch on is
≈
70
μ
A, while the minimum turn–on current is
≈
0.4
μ
A.
