The V
o
Adjust control (pin 8) sets the output voltage of the PTH04T240/241W. The adjustment range is 0.69 V to
3.6 V. The adjustment method requires the addition of a single external resistor, R
SET
, that must be connected
directly between the V
o
Adjust and Sense pins. Table 1 gives the standard value of the external resistor for a
number of standard voltages, along with the actual output voltage that this resistance value provides.
For other output voltages, the value of the required resistor can either be calculated using the following formula,
or simply selected from the range of values given in Table 2 . Figure 9 shows the placement of the required
resistor.

(1) The minimum input voltage is 2.2 V or (V

+ 0.5) V, whichever is greater.
(1) R
SET
: Use a 0.05 W resistor with a tolerance of 1% and temperature stability of 100 ppm/ ° C (or better). Connect the
resistor directly between V
O
Adjust (pin 8) and -Sense (pin 7), as close to the regulator as possible, using dedicated
PCB traces.
(2) Never connect capacitors from V
O
Adjust (pin 8) to either +Sense (pin 6), GND, or V
O
(pin 5). Any capacitance added
to the V
O
Adjust pin affects the stability of the regulator.
