Publication number: 20150035736Abstract: A method for compensating voltages includes steps as follows. A reference voltage line is detected to obtain a first pulsation signal. A phase of the first pulsation signal is shifted to obtain a shift signal. The shift signal is compared with an ideal signal to obtain a difference signal. A phase of difference signal is inverted, and the phase-inverted difference signal is summed up with the ideal signal, so as to obtain a compensation signal. The compensation signal is outputted to the reference voltage line when the reference voltage line sends a second pulsation signal, so that a voltage of the reference voltage line becomes the ideal signal, wherein the ideal signal is a fixed voltage.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 15, 2013Publication date: February 5, 2015Applicant: CHUNGHWA PICTURE TUBES, LTD.Inventors: Chia Yi LU, Chin-I CHIANG
