External Trim (SxJ2/SxJ1)
The Trim pin at SxJ2 is referenced to the -Sense pin and can be used for external control
of the output voltage. For dual output cards, the Trim pins are available at SxJ1-14 and
SxJ1-6 for outputs 1 and 2, respectively. A 10% increase to the trim pin voltage will
result in a 10% increase in output voltage. Reducing the trim pin voltage by 10% will
result in a 10% decrease in output voltage.
Note: Converters are sometimes pre-trimmed at the factory if a nonstandard output voltage is
requested. If a nonstandard voltage is requested, the resistor calculations will differ from those that
follow. Consult Vicor Applications Engineering for assistance.
