Abstract
The output voltage of the inverter is supplied to a high voltage transformer to which an X-ray tube with a rotating anode is connected. The rotating anode motor is likewise fed by the inverter. To this end, the inverter can be selectively operated with a high frequency for feeding the X-ray tube and a low frequency for feeding the rotating anode motor. But it is also possible to supply the inverter output voltage in parallel to the high voltage transformer and to a frequency divider at whose output the rotating anode motor lies.
