ABSTRACT:
A high-frequency supply for use with an x-ray tube having a central metallic tap includes two inverse rectifiers each having a high-voltage transformers, forming two series-connected high-voltage rectifiers. The tap of the x-ray tube is electrically connected between the two high-voltage rectifiers. Each inverse rectifier has a capacitor associated therewith, with the inverse rectifier connected at the cathode side of the x-ray tube having a capacitor with a higher capacitance than the inverse rectifier connected at the anode side of the x-ray tube. Current flowing in the line connected to the tap between the two high-voltage rectifiers is thus compensated, so that a shift in the center of the high-voltage is avoided.
