Abstract From the Canadian patent

An amplitude-adjusting circuit used for a contrastadjusting circuit of resistor division type in which a video signal is applied across a pair of series-connected resistors and an output is produced from the junction point of the two resistors. At least one of the resistors is used as a variable resistor. The amplitude-adjusting circuit comprises a current source for supplying a constant current steadily between the terminals of the variable resistor, a high-gain amplifier for controlling the resistance value of the variable resistor, and a filter for separating the video signal component from the change of the value of the variable resistor represented by a voltage change, and introducing …

Why it's free to use

  • Granted December 23, 1986. A Canadian patent filed before October 1, 1989 lasted 17 years from grant, so its term ended December 23, 2003.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
