The regulator has the simple task of maintaining a constant voltage in the vehicle's electrical system even with greatly varying engine speeds, thereby protecting consumers from overvoltage and preventing battery overload.

MOSFET - The Revolution in Voltage Regulation

MOSFET transistors are used to amplify electronic waves.
This concept has replaced the conventional three-phase voltage regulator technology, as it is much less susceptible to disturbances or failures.

The main advantage lies in the much lower heat generation, which causes most conventional regulators to fail.

For many years, the classic voltage regulators installed in almost all motorcycles have used a so-called silicon control rectifier to keep the battery voltage constantly stable.
The new MOSFET voltage regulator technology is becoming increasingly popular in new vehicles mainly due to its optimized performance.

Nowadays, motorcycles, scooters and ATVs have a higher energy consumption due to the many additional features such as fuel injection systems, ABS control units, more powerful lighting etc.
A classic generator cannot generate this increased energy consumption due to its low power capacity.
With a power current of (for example) more than 35A, this would irrevocably lead to overheating and destruction of the generator.

As the power current increases, so does the power loss (heat).

To this end, all excess energy is directed to ground (chassis) during operation.
As a result, the voltage drop is very low (less than 0.2 V - 35A) and this in turn drastically reduces the heat generated, which in turn enormously increases the life of the generator!

Due to the diverse applications in the electronics industry, MOSFET technology has been greatly improved in recent years to enable effective semiconductor integration in small areas with excellent performance.

It also enables very fast switching, improved reliability and offers great control under adverse conditions.
