resistor, Rmargin-down, from the Trim pin to the Output
pin for margining-down. Figure 33 shows the circuit
configuration for output voltage margining. The POL

For example, to program the output voltage of the
Austin MiniLynxTM module to 1.8 Vdc, Rtrim is
calculated is follows:
www.lineagepower.com under the Design Tools
section, also calculates the values of Rmargin-up and
R
margin-down for a specific output voltage and % margin.

Using 1% tolerance trim resistor, set point
tolerance of ±2% is achieved as specified in the
electrical specification. The POL Programming
Tool, available at www.lineagepower.com under
the Design Tools section, helps determine the
required external trim resistor needed for a specific
output voltage.
Voltage Margining
Output voltage margining can be implemented in the
Austin MiniLynxTM modules by connecting a resistor,
Rmargin-up, from the Trim pin to the ground pin for
