FEATURES DESCRIPTIONS (CON.)

Over-Temperature Protection

The over-temperature protection consists of circuitry that provides protection from thermal damage. If the temperature exceeds the over-temperature threshold the module will shut down. The module will try to restart after shutdown. If the over-temperature condition still exists during restart, the module will shut down again. This restart trial will continue until the temperature is within specification

Remote Sense

The DNM/DNL provide Vo remote sensing to achieve proper regulation at the load points and reduce effects of distribution losses on output line. In the event of an open remote sense line, the module shall maintain local sense regulation through an internal resistor. The module shall correct for a total of 0.5V of loss. The remote sense line impedance shall be < 10Ω.

Output Voltage Programming

The output voltage of the DNM/DNL can be programmed to any voltage between 0.75Vdc and 3.3Vdc by connecting one resistor (shown as Rtrim in Figure 37) between the TRIM and GND pins of the module. Without this external resistor, the output voltage of the module is 0.7525 Vdc. To calculate the value of the resistor Rtrim for a particular output voltage Vo, please use the following equation:

⎡	21070	⎤
Rtrim = ⎢		− 5110⎥Ω

⎣Vo − 0.7525		⎦

For example, to program the output voltage of the DNL module to 1.8Vdc, Rtrim is calculated as follows:

⎡	21070	⎤
Rtrim = ⎢		− 5110⎥Ω = 15KΩ
	− 0.7525
⎣1.8		⎦

DNL can also be programmed by apply a voltage between the TRIM and GND pins (Figure 38). The following equation can be used to determine the value of Vtrim needed for a desired output voltage Vo:

DS_DNM04SMD10_07162008

Vtrim = 0.7 − 0.1698⋅ (Vo − 0.7525)

For example, to program the output voltage of a DNL module to 3.3 Vdc, Vtrim is calculated as follows

Vtrim = 0.7 − 0.1698 ⋅ (3.3 − 0.7525) = 0.267V

Table 1 provides Rtrim values required for some common output voltages, while Table 2 provides value of external voltage source, Vtrim, for the same common output voltages. By using a 1% tolerance trim resistor, set point tolerance of ±2% can be achieved as specified in the electrical specification.
