Abstract:
A circuit arrangement for an MRT system and a method for operating an MRT system are disclosed. The circuit arrangement includes a gradient amplifier having a switch-mode output stage, a regulator device, and a modulator connected therebetween in the circuit. To ensure patient safety, a control path is integrated into a drive path of the circuit arrangement or the MRT system provided for driving a gradient coil, the gradient coil being connected to an output of the switch-mode output stage. The control path includes a limiter stage connected downstream of the regulator device, the modulator, the switch-mode output stage and its supply voltage. The limiter stage is connected in the circuit between the regulator device and an input of the modulator, to limit a control signal output by the regulator device and limit the voltage for the gradient coil provided by the switch-mode output stage at its output.

Claim (Index 24):
The method of  claim 23 , wherein the modulator is switched into a freewheeling circuit to initiate, with a delay of less than 50 ms, the blocking of output drivers of the modulator provided for outputting the modulator signal to the switch-mode output stage.
