Connecting an external resistor between Trim pin and Vo- pin will decrease the output voltage. While connecting it
between Trim and Vo+ will increase the output voltage. The following equations determine the external resistance to obtain
the trimmed output voltage.

For 1% adjustment resistor, the trimed output voltageis guaranteed within ±2%.
When trimmingup, the output current should be decreased accordingly so as not to exceed the maximum output power.

For AVO250-48S28B, if the sense compensate function is not necessary, connect S+ to Vo+ and S- to Vo- directly.
