Abstract
A power supply provides high voltage for a grid controlled x-ray tube. In the supply an oscillator generates a high frequency signal which is amplified and transformed to kilovoltage. A voltage multiplier increases the kilovoltage to a potential suitable for the tube. The voltage multiplier includes a bank of series capacitors which tends to maintain a constant high voltage when the tube is not conducting.
