Abstract
A power supply circuit for an x-ray production system, which has an inverter circuit with an output for connecting the inverter circuit with an x-ray source of the x-ray production system, includes a rectifier circuit including an input to connect the rectifier circuit with a power supply network, the rectifier circuit further including an output to connect to an input of the inverter circuit; and a backup circuit including a plurality of electrical energy storage cells, the plurality of electrical energy storage cells being connectable in series between the input of the inverter circuit and the output of the rectifier circuit.
Claims20
A power supply circuit for an x-ray production system, the x-ray production system having an inverter circuit with an output for connecting the inverter circuit with an x-ray source of the x-ray production system, and the power supply circuit comprising:
- a rectifier circuit including,
- an input configured to connect the rectifier circuit with a power supply network,
- a first output configured to connect to a first input of the inverter circuit, the output of the inverter circuit being directly connectable to the x-ray source, and
- a second output configured to connect to a backup circuit;
- and
- the backup circuit including a plurality of electrical energy storage cells, the plurality of electrical energy storage cells being configured to connect in series between a second input of the inverter circuit and the second output of the rectifier circuit.
