Abstract :
A figure of merit suitable for comparing the transient response of television video amplifiers is proposed. The parameters are adjusted so that when applied to a shunt-peaked interstage, the figure of merit reaches a maximum for an overshoot of approximately 2 per cent. Application of the suggested form to other types of interstages arranges the various networks in the order of their suitability in television amplifiers as considered from their transient responses.
