Automatic Gain Control in Television Automation

M. H. Diehl, W. J. Hoffman, W. L. Shepard

An automatic programming device depends on automatic gain control in typical TV applications. An “All Electronic” AGC with sufficient operational range for use as an integral part of a monochrome vidicon film center is described and compared to other gain-control methods. An automatic programmer also lends itself to the switching functions of a color film center using the flying-spot-scanner principle.
