This reference design provides a solution for a loop-powered, highly-accurate, field (sensor) transmitter with a HART® modem. The design uses a partially-discrete 4-mA to 20-mA current transmitter, HART modem, microcontroller, and power conditioning blocks in realizing a smart field transmitter design. The design is compliant with the HART FSK Physical Layer Specification and has been registered with FieldComm Group™.
Features
- Loop-powered, 4-mA to 20-mA current transmitter with DAC8740H HART modem and onboard power conditioning blocks
- Less than 0.1% FSR total unadjusted error at room temperature
- External protection circuitry with reverse polarity protection
- Compliant with HART FSK Physical Layer Specification and registered HART device
