Abstract
In a high-voltage power device for X-ray tubes, a single magnetic circuit is used to couple a primary circuit to two separate secondary circuits. Each of these secondary circuits comprises a series of secondary windings, each connected to a rectifier-doubler circuit constituted by diodes, borne by a printed circuit, and by capacitors, borne in a cellular compartment. This arrangement makes it possible notably to double the output high voltage or to obtain perfectly symmetrical high voltages in a device that occupies less space.
