Monte Carlo V6-3.8L SC VIN 1 (2004)
Voltage Regulator: Description and Operation
The voltage regulator controls the rotor field current in order to limit the system voltage. When the field current is on, the regulator switches the current
on and off at a rate of 400 cycles per second in order to perform the following functions:
-
Radio noise control
-
Obtain the correct average current needed for proper system voltage control
At high speeds, the on-time may be 10 percent with the off-time at 90 percent. At low speeds, the on-time may be 90 percent and the off-time 10
percent.
