Leakage currents in circuitry external to the amplifier can significantly degrade performance. High quality insulation should be used (e.g., Teflon); cleaning of all insulating surfaces to remove fluxes and other residues will probably be necessary, particularly for high temperature performance. Surface coating may be necessary to provide a moisture barrier in high humidity environments. Board leakage can be minimized by encircling the input connections with a guard ring operated at a potential close to that of the inputs: in inverting configurations the guard ring should be tied to ground; in noninverting connections to the inverting input. Guarding both sides of the printed circuit board is required. Bulk leakage reduction depends on the guard ring width. Microvolts Thermocouple effects must be considered if the LTC1151’s ultra low drift is to be fully utilized. Any connection of dissimilar metals forms a thermoelectric junction producing an electric potential which varies with temperature (Seebeck effect). As temperature sensors, thermocouples exploit this phenomenon to produce useful information. In low drift amplifier circuits the effect is a primary source of error. Connectors, switches, relay contacts, sockets, resistors, solder, and even copper wire are all candidates for thermal EMF generation. Junctions of copper wire from different manufacturers can generate thermal EMFs of 200nV/°C; four times the maximum drift specification of the LTC1151. Minimizing thermal EMF-induced errors is possible if judicious attention is given to circuit board layout and component selection. It is good practice to minimize the number of junctions in the amplifier’s input signal path. Avoid connectors, sockets, switches and relays where possible. In instances where this is not possible, attempt to balance the number and type of junctions so that differential cancellation occurs. Doing this may involve deliberately introducing junctions to offset unavoidable junctions. Figure 1 is an example of the introduction of an unnecessary resistor to promote differential thermal balance. Maintaining compensating junctions in close physical proximity will keep them at the same temperature and reduce thermal EMF errors. When connectors, switches, relays and/or sockets are necessary they should be selected for low thermal EMF activity. The same techniques of thermally balancing and coupling the matching junctions are effective in reducing the thermal EMF errors of these components. 1151fa 7 LTC1151 U W U UO APPLICATI S I FOR ATIO Resistors are another source of thermal EMF errors. Table 1 shows the thermal EMF generated for different resistors. The temperature gradient across the resistor is important, not the ambient temperature. There are two junctions formed at each end of the resistor and if these junctions are at the same temperature, their thermal EMFs will cancel each other. The thermal EMF numbers are approximate and vary with resistor value. High values give higher thermal EMF. Table 1.

The input offset voltage specification of the LTC1151 is actually set by the package-induced warm-up drift rather than by the circuit itself. The thermal time constant ranges from 0.5 to 3 minutes, depending on package type. ALIASING Like all sampled data systems, the LTC1151 exhibits aliasing behavior at input frequencies near the sampling frequency. The LTC1151 includes a high frequency correction loop which minimizes this effect. As a result, aliasing is not a problem for many applications. For a complete discussion of the correction circuitry and aliasing behavior, please refer to the LTC1051/LTC1053 data sheet. PACKAGE-INDUCED OFFSET VOLTAGE LOW SUPPLY OPERATION Package-induced thermal EMF effects are another important source of errors. They arise at the junctions formed when wire or printed circuit traces contact a package lead. Like all the previously mentioned thermal EMF effects, The minimum supply for proper operation of the LTC1151 is typically 4.0V (±2.0V). In single supply applications, PSRR is guaranteed down to 4.7V (±2.35V) to ensure proper operation at minimum TTL supply voltage of 4.75V.
