Abstract

Body coil tuning control device having: DC-DC converter with input connected to a DC power supply of an MRI system and output connected to input of an LDO, output of the LDO connected to first connection of a first resistor group; a first opamp with non-inverting input connected to first connection of the first resistor group, inverting input connected to the second connection of the first resistor group, and output connected to gate of a MOSFET array; and a negative feedback circuit connected between the output and the non-inverting input of the first opamp. The MOSFET array has a drain connected to the second connection of the first resistor group and a source connected to the input of the body coil of the MRI system. After the output signal of the first opamp is input to the gate of the MOSFET array, the source outputs a constant preset current.
