Voltage Regulation - Electronic Power Supply Parameters

Electronic Power Supply Parameters

The quality of a system's voltage regulation is described by three main parameters:

Parameter ST Measure of the ability to maintain a constant output voltage, regardless of variations in temperature of electrical components within the system, especially semiconductor based devices.

Sometimes, the term voltage regulation is used to describe processes by which the quantity VR is reduced, especially concerning special circuits and devices for this purpose, voltage regulators. Voltage regulators are an important part of power systems and power supplies.
