High frequency power distribution unit for a ct system

A method of manufacturing a CT system, comprising:

• attaching an x-ray source to a gantry;
• coupling a high-voltage power supply (HVPS) to the x-ray source;
• and
• coupling a DC output of a high-frequency power distribution unit (HFPDU) to an input of the high-voltage power supply (HVPS), the HFPDU comprising:
• a three-phase rectifier coupled to an input bus of the HFPDU, the rectifier configured to output a DC current to an inverter;
• the inverter configured to convert the DC current to an AC current, and output the AC current to a primary winding of an isolation transformer;
• and
• the isolation transformer having a secondary output to the isolation transformer, that is coupled to a full bridge rectifier, to produce DC current to the output bus and to DC bus loads of the CT system.

A high-frequency power distribution unit (HFPDU) for providing power for a CT system, the HFPDU having an input bus that is coupleable to a three-phase source, and having an output bus, the HFPDU comprising:

• a three-phase rectifier coupled to the input bus and configured to output a DC current to an inverter;
• the inverter configured to convert the DC current to an AC current, and output the AC current to a primary winding of an isolation transformer;
• and
• the isolation transformer having a secondary output to an isolation transformer, that is coupled to a full bridge rectifier, to produce DC current to the output bus and to DC bus loads of a CT system.
