Standardization of the Television Raster for Non-Broadcast Applications

John H. Harshbarger

The raster format appears as the preferred method of cathode ray tube display. However, confusion abounds in scanning rates and pulse parameters, especially in computer applications, leading to inefficient and costly designs as well as equipment which is not interchangeable. While certain EIA Standards have been developed, they have not been adhered to in the design of much present-day equipment. This paper examines the applicability of existing standards to modern circumstances and proposes a further standardization of horizontal pulse proportion than that now described.
