TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Top Ten LTC1966 Application Mistakes
1. Circuit won’t work–Dead On Arrival–no power drawn.
2. Circuit won’t work, but draws power. Zero or very
3. Screwy results, particularly with respect to linearity

or high crest factors; differential input application.
– Probably AC-coupled both input pins.
– Probably forgot to enable the LTC1966 by pulling
little output, single-ended input application.
– Probably didn’t connect both input pins.
Pin 8 low.
Solution: Tie Pin 8 to Pin 1.
Solution: Tie both inputs to something. See “Input
Connections” in the Design Cookbook.
Solution: Make at least one input DC-coupled. See
“Input Connections” in the Design Cookbook.

– Probably tried to use output in a floating, differential

– The offsets are not specified at 0V in. No RMS-to-

– This could again be due to using 0V in as one of the
– The input offset voltage can cause small AC linear
manner.
Solution: Tie Pin 6 to a low impedance. See “Output
Connections” in the Design Cookbook.
DC converter works well at 0 due to a divide-by-zero
calculation.
Solution: Measure V

Solution: Check Linearity from 5mV

Analyses” section.
Possible Solution: Include a trim for input offset.
