How to Adjust the Output Voltage

The buck mode output voltage VLV is determined by,

Equation 1. V L V = 2 V × R 80 + R 76 R 80

It is suggested to adjust R80 to adjust VLV without affecting the voltage loop.

The boost mode output voltage VHV is determined by,

Equation 2. V H V = 2 V × R 79 + R 75 R 79

It is suggested to adjust R79 to adjust VHV without affecting the voltage loop.

Please check below items when increasing the output voltage.

  • Voltage stress of the components.
  • OVP voltage.
  • Inductor current ripple and core loss.
