Adjusting the Output Voltage of the PTEA415050 Isolated DC/DC Converter
The output voltage adjustment of the PTEA415050 isolated DC/DC converter follows the standard adopted by
popular 1/8-brick DC/DC converters. Adjustment is accomplished with a single external resistor that can adjust
the output voltage from –20% to +10% of the nominal set-point voltage. The placement of the resistor determines
the direction of adjustment, up or down, and the value of the magnitude of adjustment. To ensure good VO
set-point accuracy, a 1% maximum tolerance resistor is recommended.
Adjust Up: To increase the output voltage add a resistor, R1, between VO Adjust (pin 6) and Sense(+) (pin 7).
Adjust Down: Add a resistor, (R2), between VO Adjust (pin 6) and Sense(–) (pin 5).
Refer to Figure 7 for the placement of the required resistor, R1 or (R2).
The values of R1 [adjust up], and (R2) [adjust down], can be calculated using the following formulas.

Where:
Δ% = Amount of adjustment in %
VO = Original set-point voltage
Notes:
1. Use a 1% resistor for either the R1 or (R2). Place the resistor as close to the converter as possible.
2. If VO is increased, the maximum load current must be derated according to the following equation.
IO(max) + VO
IO(rated)
VA
where
• VO is the original set-point voltage
• VA is the adjusted output voltage (measured between pin 8 and pin 4)
(3)
In any instance, the load current must not exceed the converter's maximum rated output current of 15 A.
3. The overvoltage threshold is fixed, and is set approximately 20% above the nominal output voltage. Adjusting
the output voltage higher reduces the voltage margin between the adjusted output voltage and the
overvoltage (OV) protection threshold. This could make the module sensitive to OV fault detection, as a
result of random noise and load transients.
