Adjusting the Output Voltage

The output voltage is set with a resistor divider from the output (VOUT) to the VSENSE pin. TI recommends to use 1% tolerance or better resistors. Start with a 10 kΩ for RTOP and use Equation 1 to calculate RBOTTOM. To improve efficiency at light loads, consider using larger-value resistors. If the values are too high, the regulator is more susceptible to noise and voltage errors from the VSENSE input current are noticeable.
