ABSTRACT:
A control for modulating the scanning beam of a raster output scanner in response to both video image signal levels and beam intensity signal levels through a single port modulator driver with linear balanced amplifier. A control circuit combines the video image signals with an analog beam intensity signal to provide a composite image/intensity control signal which is input to the modulator port to regulate scanning beam intensity. The image intensity signals are derived from a memory previously loaded with data reflecting image beam intensity variations across the scan line, the memory output being updated by a signal representing current beam intensity prior to use by the control circuit.
