Product Number: LTC6906
Hi,
The datasheet of LTC6906 mentioned that the leakage current near Rset could affect output frequency accuracy of the device and recommends using a guard ring connecting to pin 5 to mitigate the issue. Can I also avoid this issue by using a smaller Rset and a higher divider ratio so that leakage current becomes less significant? The datasheet seems to suggest an Rset range between 100 k and 1 M. Will an Rset below 100 k affect reliability or output frequency accuracy/stability of the device? If power consumption is not a concern for my design, can I get better accuracy by using a small Rset (e.g 10 k) and a high divider ratio? Are there other factors that impacts output frequency (e.g. 5 V vs. 3.3 V input)?
Thank you
