In Integrated Tube Components(ITC) process in themanufacturing of color display tube, we describe the necessity of the convergence measurement method using photo sensors. Compared with methods using 1D or 2D cameras, its characteristics is to use of moving image patterns and fixed sensors. This measurement method is formulated as the measurement problem of the phase difference in phase changing periodic signals. The convergence measurement system using photo sensors, for the good performance, must have a small standard deviation for the repetitive measurement in the same condition and a fast measurement time for thecovergence change. By above two conditions, we proposed the real time measurement algorithm of the pahse difference using fundametal and harmonic in phase changing periodic signals. And, the proposed algorithm is applied to the convergence measurement system.
