Hello, please excuse my ignorance, but looking at the data sheet, it appears the maximum regulated output voltage is 33V, but I need 35V @ 3A.

It also says the the unit may be used with higher voltages as long as the max. differential is not exceeded, which is 35V.
My use is for a SS power amplifier section that I wish to regulate to compensate for variable mains voltages: 105-125. With this range, I calculate that 45VDC would need to be present when the AC is at 125. As it would drop to 37.5VDC when the AC is at 105. So the max. differential is 10v which will allow the full 3A load current, and be well withing min. dropout voltage.
So the question is if the resistors are set for 35V out, will it work?
I'm confused.....
