Worksheet Chapter 4B
1.
Locate each of the following components in the x-ray circuit drawing in your text.
Explain the purpose of each.
a.
Power supply The primary circuit houses the power supply, which receives 220 volts and is maintained at a steady level by the line compensator.
b.
Circuit breaker
A reusable safety switch that cuts the power when the current exceeds a certain threshold.
c.
Autotransformer
Its main function is to supply a voltage that the step-by-step transformer will use to raise to the kilovoltage that the user has selected at the operating console.
d.
Exposure timer
Functions in tandem with the rheostat to ascertain the total amount of electrons boiled off the filament and ready for x-ray generation.
e.
Step up transformer
Used to raise the autotransformer's voltage to the kilovoltage required for the production of x-rays.
f.
Rectifiers
Rectifiers are needed to convert AC to DC
g.
Rheostat
All a rheostat is is a variable or adjustable resistor that is managed by the operating console's mA selector.
h.
Step down transformer
Used in the filament circuit to lower the voltage applied to the filament and raise the current.
i.
Filament wires
These tiny wire coils, which are heated and used for exposure, are kept in the cathode of the x-ray tube.
j.
X-ray tube
The source of the negatively charged electrons needed to create an x-ray is an electronic vacuum tube.
2.
What factors can the technologist control from the operating console?
The voltage and current of the x-ray tube are under the technologist's control. The exposure time, mAs, and kVp can all be changed by the radiographer.
3.
Describe how the AEC works. Describe where ionization chambers are located in relation to the x-ray tube, patient, and image receptor. When the required level of radiation exposure is attained, the AEC stops the exposure. It measures the amount of radiation exposure to the IR. The patient and the image receptor are separated by the radiolucent ionization chamber. The chamber's atoms become ionized when x-rays interact with it, producing an electrical charge. The generated charge
turns into a signal that ends the exposure.
4.
For a half wave rectified circuit waveform:
a.
How many rectifiers are required to achieve this waveform? Two, but the second rectifiers are blocked.
b.
What is the percentage of voltage ripple in this waveform? 100%
5.
For a full-wave rectified circuit waveform:
a.
How many rectifiers are required to achieve this waveform? Four rectifiers are used.
b.
What is the percentage of voltage ripple in this waveform? 100%
6.
For a three-phase rectified circuit waveform:
a.
How many rectifiers are required to achieve this waveform?
There are six rectifiers if the three circuits are half rectified. There are twelve rectifiers if the circuits are full wave rectified.
b.
What is the percentage of voltage ripple in this waveform?
13%-3.5%
7.
For a high frequency generator circuit waveform, what is the voltage ripple? <1%
8.
Describe how the amount of resistance in the variable resistor will change when the control panel is set for 800mA vs. 200 mA.
The mA selector must be moved from 800 to 200 in order to increase resistance. Less current is required when less milliamperes (mA) are required, so resistance will rise to let fewer electrons flow through the circuit.

A computer's power supply converts mains AC to low-voltage regulated DC power for the internal components of a computer. You are building a new computer. You are deciding which type of power supply to install.
Which of the following definitions BEST describes a valid type of power supply?
Correct Answer:
A single-rail power supply provides one rail (PCB trace). This provides the best safety for the computer by providing a single point of shutdown in the event of a short circuit.
Correct Answer:
A single-rail power supply provides one rail (PCB trace) used to always provide equal wattage to all devices attached to the power supply.
Correct Answer:
A dual-rail power supply provides separate rails (PCB traces) used to provide equal wattage to the devices attached to each rail.
Correct Answer:
A dual-rail power supply provides separate rails (PCB traces) used to balance the power load between multiple circuits, which prevents any one circuit from becoming overloaded.
