  • MEASUREMENT SYSTEM FOR A BIPOLAR HIGH VOLTAGE GENERATOR
    Publication number: 20250212309
    Abstract: A measurement system for a bipolar high voltage generator, comprising: a first measuring channel to acquire a negative tube current and a negative tube voltage; a second measuring channel to acquire a positive tube current and a positive tube voltage; an interface between the first measuring channel and the second measuring channel, the interface being configured to transmit (i) first measured values of the negative tube current and the negative tube voltage, acquired via the first measuring channel, and/or (ii) second measured values of the positive tube current and the positive tube voltage, acquired via the second measuring channel; and a control logic to receive the first measured values and the second measured values, compare the received measured values with at least one limit value, and output a control signal as a function of a limit value violation occurring during the comparison of the received measured values.

  • Method for operating a radiation detector and radiation detector
    Patent number: 12061300
    Abstract: A method is for operating a radiation detector, in particular an X-ray radiation detector. The radiation detector has a control device to generate a control signal for an illumination unit. The control signal is generated via a pulse current source and a DC source. The pulse current source generates a pulsed signal portion and the DC source generates a direct component. The pulsed signal portion and the direct component are superimposed to generate the control signal and are fed to the illumination unit. A radiation detector is furthermore specified.
