8.1.1 External Feedback Resistors

The output voltage is set using the ADJ pin with help of the external feedback resistors, R1 and R2 (see Figure 8-2), according to the following equation:

Equation 2. V O U T   =   V A D J   ×   ( 1   +   R 1   /   R 2 )

For the legacy chip, use a resistor from the ADJ pin to ground with a value of 51.1 kΩ.

For the new chip, to ignore the ADJ pin current error term in the VOUT equation, set the feedback divider current to 100 times the ADJ pin current listed in the Electrical CharacteristicsElectrical CharacteristicsElectrical CharacteristicsElectrical CharacteristicsElectrical CharacteristicsElectrical Characteristics table. This setting provides the maximum feedback divider series resistance, as shown in the following equation:

Equation 3. R 1   +   R 2   ≤   V O U T   /   ( I A D J   ×   100 )
