Abstract
Disclosed is an inverter type X-ray apparatus comprising a DC-DC converter for converting a DC voltage into a different DC voltage, an inverter for inverting an output voltage of the DC-DC converter into an AC voltage, a high voltage transformer for transforming an output voltage of the inverter into a higher voltage, a rectifier for converting an AC output voltage of the transformer into a DC voltage, and an X-ray tube to which an output voltage of the rectifier is applied. In the apparatus, the DC-DC converter includes a reactor, a switching element and a capacitor which are interconnected so that the DC-DC converter can generate an output voltage higher or lower than an input voltage.
