Power Supply Regulators Unit 2 – Shunt Voltage Regulator
NEW TERMS AND WORDS
shunt voltage regulator - a type of regulator that uses a parallel element to control output voltage
when line voltage or load voltage changes.
Line regulation - the ability of a voltage regulator to maintain a constant output voltage for
variations in line voltage.
Load regulation - the ability of a voltage regulator to maintain a constant output voltage for
variations in load resistance.
