A first electronic switch grounds a clamping diode to reverse the polarity of the pulses and thus discharge the storage condenser. A second electronic switch provides a hold function by reducing the amplitude of the charging pulses (taken from a TV line scanning flyback circuit) so that they cannot fire the gas discharge tube.,下面是Sawtooth scan circuit with hold feature专利的具体信息内容。
