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.
