5.10 Varying Internal Output Resistance
Function
• Internal resistance at the output is equal to practically 0 Ω in the
voltage regulating mode.
• Internal resistance can be increased at the output for some
applications, e.g. for the simulation of long power leads or weak
automotive batteries.
The selected (open-circuit) output voltage drops proportionately
as load increases (see figure 5.10 a).
Figure 5.10 a Output Voltage Relative to Load
Standardization
• The standardized curve shown in figure 5.10 applies to all
device types.
• It is plain to see from the characteristic curve, which internal
output resistance R
i
results from which control resistance R
ext
.

Connection
• Wire the analog interface in accordance with figure 5.10 c.
• When wired as shown, the following relationship of internal
resistance R
