not configured with auto–restart, then it will latch off
following the over current condition. The module can
be restarted by cycling the dc input power for at least
one second or by toggling the remote on/off signal for
at least one second. If the unit is configured with the
auto-restart option (4), it will remain in the hiccup
mode as long as the overcurrent condition exists; it
operates normally, once the output current is brought
back into its specified range. The average output

For example, to trim-up the output voltage of the
module by 5% to 3.465V, Rtrim-up is calculated is as

Trimming allows the output voltage set point to be
increased or decreased, this is accomplished by
connecting an external resistor between the TRIM pin
and either the VO(+) pin or the VO(-) pin.

The voltage between the VO(+) and VO(–) terminals
must not exceed the minimum output overvoltage
protection value shown in the Feature Specifications
table. This limit includes any increase in voltage due
to remote-sense compensation and output voltage
set-point adjustment trim.

Although the output voltage can be increased by both
the remote sense and by the trim, the maximum
increase for the output voltage is not the sum of both.
The maximum increase is the larger of either the
remote sense or the trim. The amount of power
delivered by the module is defined as the voltage at
the output terminals multiplied by the output current.
When using remote sense and trim, the output voltage
of the module can be increased, which at the same
output current would increase the power output of the
module. Care should be taken to ensure that the
maximum output power of the module remains at or
below the maximum rated power (Maximum rated
power = VO,set x IO,max).

Connecting an external resistor (Rtrim-down) between
the TRIM pin and the VO(-) (or Sense(-)) pin
decreases the output voltage set point. To maintain
set point accuracy, the trim resistor tolerance should
be ±1.0%.
