Abstract
A control mechanism for a high-voltage generator for supplying voltage and current to an electronic radiation source in high-temperature environments is provided, the control mechanism including at least one voltage feedback loop for monitoring the output of the generator; at least one environmental temperature monitor; a control bus; and at least one control processor. A method of controlling a high-voltage generator that powers an electronic radiation source in high-temperature environments is also provided, the method including at least: measuring the output voltage of the generator; measuring the temperature within the generator's environment, using a control mechanism to modify a driving frequency, and using a control mechanism to modify a driving pulse-train, such that changes in properties of the electronic components of the generator as a result of changes in environmental temperature are characterized and the generator's driving signals modified to maintain optimally efficient input parameters for a specific environmental temperature.
