These devices are intended for wave soldering or manual soldering.
They are not intended to be subject to surface mount processes under any circumstances.
The normal wave soldering process can be used with these devices where the device is subjected to a maximum wave temperature of 260°C for a period of
no more than 10 seconds. Within this time and temperature range, the integrity of the device’s plastic body will not be compromised and internal temperatures
within the converter will not exceed 175°C. Care should be taken to control manual soldering limits identical to that of wave soldering.

MATERIAL: Units are encapsulated in a low thermal resistance
molding compound which has excellent chemical resistance
and electrical properties in high humidity environments and
over a wide operating temperature range. The encapsulant
and outer shell of the unit have UL94V-0 ratings. Lead material
is solder plated to allow ease of solderability.

OUTPUT ADJUST VOLTAGE
This feature allows the user to accurately adjust the module’s
output voltage set point to a specified level. This is achieved
by connecting a resistor or potentiometer from the TRIM
terminal to either the +Vout terminal (for increased Vout) or
the -Vout terminal (for decreased Vout). The formulae below
describe the trim resistor value to obtain a Vout change of
D
%. V

is output voltage prior to adjustment (3.3V, 5V, 12V,
15V, or 24V).

OVP NOTE
Special attention should be given to the peak voltage
deviation during a dynamic load step when trimming
the output above the original set point to avoid
tripping the overvoltage protection circuit. Should an
OVP condition occur, the converter will go into a latch
condition and must be externally reset before it will
return to normal operation.
