JBW030-Series Power Module: dc-dc Converters
36-75 Vdc Input; 3.3 Vdc and 5 Vdc Outputs; 30 W
Output Voltage Set-Point Adjustment
(Trim)
Output voltage trim allows the user to increase or
decrease the output voltage set point of a module. This
is accomplished by connecting an external resistor
between the TRIM pin and either the SENSE(+) or
SENSE(–) pins. With an external resistor between the
TRIM and SENSE(–) pins (R
adj-down
), the output voltage
set point (V
O, adj
) decreases (see Figure 16). The fol-
lowing equation determines the required external-resis-
tor value to obtain an output voltage change of %
Δ.

Remote Sense
Remote sense minimizes the effects of distribution
losses by regulating the voltage at the remote-sense
connections. The voltage between the remote-sense
pins and the output terminals must not exceed the out-
put voltage sense range given in the Feature Specifica-
tions table, i.e.:
[V
O
(+) – V
O
(–)] – [SENSE(+) – SENSE(–)]
≤
0.2 V
The voltage between the V
O
(+) and V
O
(–) terminals
must not exceed the minimum output overvoltage shut-
down voltage as indicated in the Feature Specifications
table. This limit includes any increase in voltage due to
remote-sense compensation and output voltage set-
point adjustment (trim). See Figure 15.
If not using the remote-sense feature to regulate the
output at the point of load, then connect SENSE(+) to
V
O
(+) and SENSE(–) to V
O
(–) at the module.
With an external resistor connected between the TRIM
and SENSE(+) pins (R
adj-up
), the output voltage set
point (V
O, adj
) increases (see Figure 17). The following
equations determine the required external-resistor
value to obtain an output voltage change of %
Δ.
