Abstract:
An apparatus to provide power for operating at least one gradient coil of a magnetic resonance imaging system. According to some aspects, the apparatus comprises a plurality of power terminals configured to supply different voltages of a first polarity, and a linear amplifier configured to provide at least one output to power the at least one gradient coil to produce a magnetic field in accordance with a pulse sequence, the linear amplifier configured to be powered by one or more of the plurality of power terminals, wherein the one or more of the plurality of power terminals powering the linear amplifier is selected based, at least in part, on the at least one output.

Claim (Index 20):
A magnetic resonance imaging system comprising:\n a B0 magnet configured to produce a B0 magnetic field; at least one gradient coil; and at least one power component configured to provide power to operate the at least one gradient coil, the at least one power component comprising:\n a linear amplifier configured to produce an output that drives the at least one gradient coil in accordance with a pulse sequence; \n at least one power converter configured to produce a variable power supply voltage to power the linear amplifier; and \n at least one controller configured to control the at least one power converter to change the variable power supply voltage based upon an output of the linear amplifier.
