SHEET A: Essay test for Television Application
(Fill in the missing word or number in the following statement)

A Receiver Television set includes the following functional blocks:

1. Low voltage power supply(max. score 0,25).

Most of the lower voltages used in the TV may be derived from the horizontal
deflection circuits. Sometimes, there is a separate switching power supply but
this would be the exception. Rectifier/filter capacitor/regulator from AC line provides
the B+ to the switching power supply or horizontal deflection system.
Degauss operates off of the line whenever power is turned on (after having been off
for a few minutes) to demagnetize the CRT.

2. Horizontal deflection(max. score 0,25).

These circuits provide the waveforms needed to sweep the electron beam in the CRT
across and back some 15,625 times per second (for PAL). The horizontal sync pulse
from the sync separator locks the horizontal deflection to the video signal.

3. Vertical deflection(max. score 0,25).

These circuits provide the waveforms needed to sweep the electron beam in the CRT
from top to bottom and back 50 times per second (for PAL). The vertical sync pulse
from the sync separator locks the vertical deflection to the video signal.

4. CRT high voltage(max. score 0,25).

A modern color CRT requires up to 30 KV for a crisp bright picture. Rather than
having a totally separate power supply, nearly every TV on the planet derives the HV
(as well as many other voltages) from the horizontal deflection using a special
transformer called a 'flyback' or 'Line OutPut Transformer (LOPT) for those of you on
the other side of the lake.

5. Tuner, IF, AGC, video and audio demodulators(max. score 0,75).

Input is the antenna or cable signal and output are baseband video and audio
signals. There is usually someplace inside the TV where line level video and audio
are present but it may not be accessible from the outside of the cabinet unless you
paid for the more expensive model with the A/V option. Very often, the tuner is a
shielded metal box positioned on the bottom right (as viewed from the front) separate
from the main circuit board. Sometimes it is on the main circuit board.

6. Chroma demodulator(max. score 0,75).

Input is the baseband video signal. Outputs are the individual signals for the
red, green, and blue video to the CRT.

7. Video drivers (RGB) (max. score 0,25).

These are almost always located on a little circuit board plugged directly onto the
neck of the CRT. They boost the output of the chroma demodulator to the hundred
volts or so needed to drive the cathodes of the CRT.

8. Sync separator (max. score 0,75).

Input is baseband video. Output is horizontal and vertical sync pulses to control
the deflection circuits.

9. Audio amplifier/output (max. score 0,25).

The line level audio is amplified to drive a set of speakers. If this is a stereo TV, then
these circuits must also perform the stereo demultiplexing.

10. System control(max. score 0,75).

Most modern TVs actually use a microcontroller - a fixed program microcomputer
to perform all user interfaces and control functions from the front panel and remote
control. These are becoming increasingly sophisticated. However, they do not fail
often. Older TVs use a bunch of knobs and switches and these are prone to wear
and dirt.
