Regulator Enable/Undervoltage-Lockout
Level (EN/UVLO)
The device features an EN/UVLO input. For normal oper-
ation, no shunts should be installed across pins 1-2 or
2-3onjumperJU1.Todisabletheoutput,installashunt
across pins 2-3 on JU1 and the EN/UVLO pin is pulled
toGND.SeeTable1forJU1settings.
Setting the Undervoltage-Lockout Level
The device offers an adjustable input undervoltage-
lockout level. Set the voltage at which the device turns
on with a resistive voltage-divider connected from VIN
to GND (see Figure 1). Connect the center node of the
divider to EN/UVLO.
ChooseR1tobe3.3MI and then calculate R2 as follows:

where V
INU
is the voltage at which the device is required
to turn on. Ensure that V

Adjusting the Output Voltage
Thedevice offers an adjustable output voltage. Set the
output voltage with a resistive voltage-divider connected
from the positive terminal of the output capacitor (V
OUT
)
to GND (see Figure 1). Connect the center node of the
voltage-divider to FB.
To choose the values of R4 and R5, select the parallel
