A system and method for reducing periodic intensity variation in a video image includes applying input signals representing video image data to multiple circuit components by sequentially shifting the input signals through the circuit components to produce output signals that match corresponding input signals. Matching the output signals to the input signals overcomes the effect of inherent differences in characteristics of analog circuit components.
