The V
O
Adjust control (pin 5) sets the output voltage of the PTH12030W/L. The adjustment range is 1.2V to 5.5V
for the W-suffix modules, and 0.8V to 1.8V for L-suffix modules. The adjustment method requires the addition of
a single external resistor, R
SET
, that must be connected directly between the V
O
Adjust and GND pins
(1)
. 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 required resistor can either be
calculated using Equation 1 , or simply selected from the range of values given in Table 3 . Figure 10 shows the
placement of the required resistor.

Adjust Resistor Placement
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 pins 5 and 7, as close to the regulator as possible, using dedicated
PCB traces.
2. Never connect capacitors from V
O
Adjust to either GND or V
O
. Any capacitance added to the V
O
Adjust pin
affects the stability of the regulator.
Use Equation 1 to calculate the adjust resistor value. See Table 2 for parameters, R

and V
