Output Voltage Adjustment: The output
voltage of the module may be adjusted by
using an external resistor connected
between the trim pin 6 and either the Sense
(+) or Sense (-) pin. If the voltage trim
feature is not used, pin 6 should be left
open. Care should be taken to avoid
injecting noise into the module’s trim pin. A
small 0.01uF capacitor between the power
module’s trim pin and Sense (-) pin may
help to avoid this.
With a resistor between the trim pin and
Sense (-) pin, the output voltage is adjusted
down. To adjust the output voltage down a
percentage of Vout (
∆%) from Vo,nom, the
trim resistor should be chosen according to
the following equation:

∆%=100×(Vo,nom - Vdesired) / Vo_nom
The current limit set point does not increase
as the module is trimmed down, so the
available output power is reduced.
