2.2.1 Input Protection

The input of the board is the loop connection on the right side of the schematic shown in Figure 2-3. Figure 2-4 shows input protection for the board starting with a TVS diode to prevent damage from over-voltage events. Ferrite beads and input capacitance also help reduce any high-frequency transients seen at the inputs. An input rectifier protect the transmitter from swapping the positive and negative inputs from mis-wiring.

When voltage is applied to the input terminals, the power is delivered to the circuit through LOOP+ and LOOP- setting the current in the 4-20mA loop.
