Deflection Yoke


Deflection Yoke - pictured below, wraps around the neck on the CRT and extends partway up along the sloped sides.  The yoke has signals running through it's wires that create a strong electrical/magnetic field - rapidly deflecting the electron beam, scanning across the screen to paint full frames at a rate of 60 frames per second.  The entire concept is truly amazing.
