Supplemental Characteristics
Table 7 - 3 Supplemental characteristics
Output programming range
(maximum programmable values)
Low range 0 V to 15.45 V
0 V to 7.21 A
High range 0 V to +20.6 V
0 V to 1.545 A
OVP 1 V to 32 V
OCP 0 A to 7.5 A
Remote sensing capability Voltage drop Up to 1 V per each lead
Load regulation Add 5 mV to specification for each 1 V change in the + output
lead due to load current changes.
Load voltage Subtract the voltage drop in the load leads from the specified
output voltage rating.
Temperature coefficient
