8.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure

Figure 8-3 shows a block diagram of a loop-powered, 4-mA to 20-mA current transmitter.

GUID-20230704-SS0I-G59C-XGT1-HBKF3LG2TTQ8-low.svg Figure 8-3 Block Diagram of a Loop-Powered, 4-mA to 20-mA Current Transmitter

The terminals connected to the loop are shown on the right side of the block diagram. This connection to the loop powers the entire transmitter. A bridge rectifier at the input protects against reverse connection to the loop. The rectified loop voltage powers a start-up circuit that provides power to an LDO, that in turn powers the AFE882H1 and an MCU.

The AFE882H1 controls the loop current through the voltage-to-current (V-to-I) converter block. The DAC voltage sets the output from 0 V to 2.5 V. The output is sent through a V-to-I converter block using an OPA333 and an NPN bipolar junction transistor (BJT).

The HART signal is not received at the positive terminal of the 4-mA to 20-mA connections, but instead is received after the loop-protection rectifier. This HART signal input is capacitively coupled to this LOOP+ internal node of the circuit as shown in Figure 8-2. The HART signal output is modulated onto the loop current from the AFE882H1 through the V-to-I converter circuit.
