摘要 |
The present invention refers to a DC/AC power inverter control unit of a resonant-type power converter circuit (400), in particular a DC/DC converter, for supplying an output power for use in, for example, a high-voltage generator circuitry of an X-ray radio-graphic imaging system, 3D rotational angiography device or X-ray computed tomography device of the fan-or cone-beam type. More particularly, the present invention is directed to a resonant-type power converter circuit out which comprises an interphase transformer (406) connected in series to at least one series resonant tank circuit (403a and 403a′ or 403b and 403b′) at the output of two DC/AC power inverter stages (402a+b) supplying a multi-primary winding high-voltage transformer (404), wherein said interphase transformer (406) serves for removing the difference (DI) in the resonant output currents (1 and 2) of the DC/AC power inverter stages (402a+b). Furthermore, the present invention is dedicated to a control method which assures that the interphase transformer (406) is not saturated. This control method ensures zero current operation and provides for that input power losses can be minimized.
