Adjusting the Output Voltage of the ATH06T033
& ATH06T05 Wide-Output Adjust Power Modules
The
V
o
Adjust
control (pin 5) sets the output voltage to a
value higher than 0.8 V. The adjustment range of the
ATH06T033 (3.3-V input) is from 0.8 V to 2.5 V
1
, and
the ATH06T05-9xx (5-V input) from 0.8 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
GND
pins
2
. Table 1-1 gives
the preferred value of the external resistor for a number
of standard voltages, along with the actual output volt-
age 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 1-2.
Figure 1-1 shows the placement of the required resistor.

Adjust Resistor Placement
Notes:
1. Modules that operate from a 3.3-V input bus should
not be adjusted higher than 2.5 V.
2. Use a 0.1 W resistor. The tolerance should be 1 %, with
temperature stability of 100 ppm/°C (or better). Place
the resistor as close to the regulator as possible. Connect
the resistor directly between pins 5 and 1 using dedicated
PCB traces.
3. Never connect capacitors from
V
o
Adjust
to either
GND
or
V
out
. Any capacitance added to the
V
o
Adjust
pin will affect
the stability of the regulator.
