ABSTRACT:
A voltage regulator is described for use in a television receiver having a horizontal oscillator for exciting a horizontal sweep system and a power source for energizing the receiver. In a receiver which also includes a voltage source derived from the excited sweep system, the regulator preferably includes an input port for receiving current from the power source and a circuit responsive to that current for initially energizing the horizontal oscillator so that the sweep system becomes excited. The regulator also includes an input/output port for receiving current from the sweep-derived voltage source and an on/off switch which is turned on responsive to the input/output port being driven above a minimum voltage level. The "on" condition of the switch enables a series pass regulator for coupling current from the input port to the input/output port such that the latter port is held at a regulated voltage level. Current at a regulated voltage level is thus available at the input/output port for powering other circuitry within the receiver.
