A New Self-Alignment System for Television Receivers in LSI Era

Since about 1972, the development and introduction of ICs has progressed, in order to improve the performance of TV receivers, with fairly satisfactory results. At present, technology has progressed to the point where two ICs upon which the equivalent of about 1000 elements has been integrated are used to form a small-signal system, but now simple accumulation of various IC's functions on one chip no longer results in significant improvements.
