Line regulation is the capability to maintain a constant output voltage level on the output channel of a power supply despite changes to the input voltage level. Line regulation is expressed as percent of change in the output voltage relative to the change in the input line voltage. This measurement is normally taken under conditions of low power dissipation to reduce the effect of average chip temperature and is typically represented as a percentage of the output voltage.
Famous quotes containing the words line and/or regulation:
“Our job is now clear. All Americans must be prepared to make, on a 24 hour schedule, every war weapon possible and the war factory line will use men and materials which will bring, the war effort to every man, woman, and child in America. All one hundred thirty million of us will be needed to answer the sunrise stealth of the Sabbath Day Assassins.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
“Nothing changes my twenty-six years in the military. I continue to love it and everything it stands for and everything I was able to accomplish in it. To put up a wall against the military because of one regulation would be doing the same thing that the regulation does in terms of negating people.”
—Margarethe Cammermeyer (b. 1942)
