Compensating for unknown wire drops without remote sensing wires is now possible. The LT4180 (linear.com/product/LT4180) continuously modulates the power supply output current to interrogate the line drop. Then the output is increased to match the drop providing up to a 50 to 1 improvement in regulation at the load.
