Q1:

An IC regulator receives an overload; it will:

A shut down

B compensate for heat

C provide more voltage

D sample and adjust

ANS:A - shut down

They can't compensate for more heat because they do not have their own heat sink or insulator. If the voltage becomes to high than what they can handle they would shut down. This is one of the reasons that IC regulators in power supplies have heat sink to prevent overheating.
