Question A-004-003-001

What is one characteristic of a linear electronic voltage regulator?

Correct Answer

The conduction of a control element is varied in direct proportion to the line voltage or load current

Explanation

In a linear regulator, a pass element (e.g., transistor) operates in its active region, and its conduction is continuously adjusted to maintain a constant output voltage by dropping the excess input voltage.
