Abstract
A method is disclosed for operating an x-ray device, in particular a computed tomograph, including a controller and a number of detector units coupled thereto for signaling purposes. Each of the detectors includes a functional unit and a number of detector elements coupled thereto. In an embodiment of the method, a synchronized clock signal for activating the detector elements is created from a control signal of the controller on the functional unit side.
