GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD5420 is a low-cost, precision, fully integrated 16-bit
converter offering a programmable current source output
designed to meet the requirements of industrial process control
applications.
The output current range is programmable to 4mA to 20 mA,
0mA to 20mA or an over range function of 0mA to 24mA.
The output is open circuit protected and can drive inductive
loads of 1H. The device is specified to operate with a power
supply range from 10.8 V to 40V (AD5420BREZ) or 10.8V to
60V (AD5420BCPZ). Output loop compliance is 0 V to AVDD
– 2.5 V.
The flexible serial interface is SPI and MICROWIRE
compatible and can be operated in 3-wire mode to minimize the
digital isolation required in isolated applications.
The device also includes a power-on-reset function ensuring
that the device powers up in a known state and an
asynchronous CLEAR pin which sets the output to the low end
of the selected current range.
The total output error is typically ±0.1% FSR.
