The current flowing through an unloaded voltage divider is called the____________?
Correct answer: A. bleeder current
- A. bleeder current
- B. load current
- C. resistor current
- D. voltage current
Explanation
The current drawn by the resistors of an unloaded voltage divider is called bleeder current. Load current would flow through an external load connected to the divider output.
