LTpowerCAD II v2.7.1 Excel Design Tool does not open

HI firefire,

I tried LTC4381 but had different prompt. It says no part is found. I believe this part number does not have support for excel. Can you try LTM8021 and see if you can open its excel design tool?

Thank you for the feedback. Unfortunately, I get the same message when I try to open the LTM8021 Excel design tool.

I may be mistaken, but I think there is an Excel design tool for the part in question according to this post. If you could point me to any other design resources for the LTC4381 that would also be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Oh sorry about that. Yes, there is excel support for LTC4381. Just sent the excel file to you by email separately.

About this error when downloading excel, let me bring up to team to review. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi firefire,

Sorry for the inconvenience. We are looking into this error but in the meantime, can you confirm that you are able to open properly the Excel design tool which was sent to you via email?

Thank you.

Hi Fil and Rein,

Thanks for the feedback and for sending the design file. I can indeed open the document and edit the blue cells without any issues.
Perhaps a helpful note is that I use LibreOffice (Calc in this case) and that I do not have Microsoft Office installed.

Hi firefire,

Thanks for the confirmation. One of the known causes for this error is due to Microsoft Excel (or Microsoft Office) not installed on the device. LTpowerCAD is looking for MS Excel to be able to launch the Excel design tool. To avoid further inconvenience, it is recommended to have MS Excel installed. FYI the Excel design tools can be found in the installation directory C:\Program Files (x86)\LTC\LTpowerCAD2\LTCLib\XLS
