DESCRIPTION
transmitter compliance voltage is at a premium. The
10V reference provides a precise 10V output with a
typical drift of 5ppm/°C.
The RCV420 is a precision current-loop receiver de-
signed to convert a 4–20mA input signal into a 0–5V
output signal. As a monolithic circuit, it offers high
reliability at low cost. The circuit consists of a pre-
mium grade operational amplifier, an on-chip precision
resistor network, and a precision 10V reference. The
RCV420 features 0.1% overall conversion accuracy,
86dB CMR, and ±40V common-mode input range.
The RCV420 is completely self-contained and offers a
highly versatile function. No adjustments are needed
for gain, offset, or CMR. This provides three important
advantages over discrete, board-level designs: 1) lower
initial design cost, 2) lower manufacturing cost, and
3) easy, cost-effective field repair of a precision circuit.
The circuit introduces only a 1.5V drop at full scale,
which is useful in loops containing extra instrument
burdens or in intrinsically safe applications where
