Modified linear curve
A modified linear curve reduces the voltage change at low control levels for better
performance in low-wattage fixtures.
Square law curve
At low control levels, much of traditional incandescent fixture’s light output is in the invisible
infrared spectrum. This results in poor visible response to low control levels. A square law
curve is derived from the square root of the control level (with full output equal to 1.00) to
increase voltage response at low control levels to compensate for the infrared loss.
