External Output Trim

The output can be trimmed externally (±10%) using a fixed resistor or
a trimpot as shown.

All specifications typical at nominal line, full load and 25°C unless otherwise stated.

Application Note

Derating:
The case operating temperature range of the PS150W series is -40°C to +100°C. When operating the PS150W series, proper derating
or cooling is required.

Following is the derating curve for the PS150W without a heatsink; airflow along width (transverse).

Where:

The power dissipated (Pd):
Pd = Pi - Po = Po (1-n) / n

The thermal resistances are listed below:
