Abstract: For a possible flexible adaptation to changing ambient conditions, a circuit arrangement comprising an integrated circuit in which a microprocessor is provided which controls an index generator provided in the integrated circuit for teletext and/or on-screen display functions and which performs control functions of a television apparatus by means of a control interface provided in the integrated circuit is characterized in that a storage interface for a read-only memory outside the integrated circuit is provided in the integrated circuit, and in that the read-only memory comprises at least a part of the program code for the microprocessor and at least a font for the teletext function and possible further index functions.
