Abstract
A framework for power management. The framework includes at least one power distribution board disposed within a radio-frequency (RF) cabin of a medical imaging system and coupled to an external reference clock. The power distribution board may include a clock circuit that generates one or more output clock signals based on a reference clock signal from the external reference clock. One or more switching regulators may be coupled to the clock circuit. The one or more switching regulators may be synchronized to the one or more output clock signals and provide power to one or more endpoint loads.
