Battery Voltage
Alternator Functional Diagram
Regulator Controls the Amount of Field
Current applied to the Rotor
2 Inputs
Regulator Inputs
• Control Voltage Input– Controls current
through the Rotor• Field Current Supply
– One input from the alternator via the Diode Trio
– Second input from the battery via the warning lamp
Regulator Action
• If the battery voltage drops, more current applied to the rotor, increasing the magnetic field strength, increasing the alternator voltage output.
• If the battery voltage increases, less field current applied to the rotor, reducing the alternator voltage output.
Field Current Supply
• Two Sources– Alternator via the
diode trio– Battery via the warning
lamp• Turn ignition ON,
– Source of field current is the battery via the ignition switch and the warning lamp
Field Current Supply (continued)
• After engine starts,– Alternator is up to
speed, output of diode trio is fed back to the regulator and serves as the source of the field current.
• Alternator is now self-sustaining
Alternator Circuitry
Warning Lamp
• Turn ignition ON,– Current flows through
warning lamp, transistors, and field coil to ground, causing the lamp to illuminate.
• Alternator at full output,– Voltage from diode trio
equals the battery voltage– equal voltage on both sides
of lamp– lamp goes out.
Warning Lamp (continued)
• If the alternator fails,– Voltage out of diode
trio drops– Lamp illuminates from
the battery voltage• If the battery fails,
– Battery voltage drops– Lamp illuminates from
the alternator voltage

Field Current
Regulator Circuit
• When battery voltage is OK,– D1 conducts– T2 conducts– Less current through
T1 collector– T3 turns Off– Field current now
reduced
Regulator Circuit (continued)
• When battery voltage is low,– D1 is Off– T2 is Off– More current flows
through T1collector– Transistor T3 turns On– Field current increases
