  • Patent number: 10827996
    Abstract: An X-ray device has an X-ray detector allocated to an X-ray tube assembly and configured as a flat panel detector, in which charges, accumulated over an integration period, of individual detector pixels are read out in a readout period following on from the integration period. In order to acquire the X-ray images, a trigger signal is captured, and if a trigger condition evaluating the trigger signal is satisfied, the acquisition of one of the X-ray images takes place using an integration period with a predetermined default length that is the same for all X-ray images. During the acquisition of the time series, in addition to the trigger condition, a readout condition that describes the anticipated imminence of the satisfaction of the trigger condition within a default period that is greater than or equal to the predetermined default length and evaluates the trigger signal is also monitored.

  • Patent number: 7158042
    Abstract: The invention relates to a voltage regulator for physically remote loads (2) with an adjustable power supply (9) for the load (2), with a measurement device (11, 12) assigned to the load (2) for creating a digital measurement signal, which is transmitted over a digital data channel (13) arranged between a data source (15) and a data sink (17) to a setting device (18 to 20) for the power supply (9).

  • Publication number: 20040085055
    Abstract: In a voltage regulator for a spatially remote user, an adjustable voltage supply is provided for the user along with a measuring instrument allocated to the user. A sensor line is provided for the transmission of a measured signal to a setting device which in turn controls the voltage supply.
