This application note’s primary goal is to provide an easy-to-understand primer for users who are not familiar with 4-20mA current-loops and their applications. Some of the many topics discussed ...

Transmitters are available with either floating outputs (typically used in loop-powered applications) or with single-ended outputs (typically used in locally-powered applications). This application ...

Open-loop current sensors have a definite price advantage over closed-loop counterparts. While you can use them in drive applications where torque accuracy isn't demanding — such as pump and fan ...

Significant efficiency and performance improvements can be realized by improving the current loop’s power supplies, replacing linear regulators with high-efficiency buck regulators. It also increases ...

The global automotive closed loop current transducer market is exhibiting consistent, low-risk expansion as vehicle electrification and power electronics complexity continue to reshape automotive ...

Here’s a question for you: when your PCB has a ground plane layer, where do return signals flow? It seems like a trick question, but as [Kristof Mulier] explains, there’s more to return path routing ...

Fluke has introduced the Fluke 787B ProcessMeter, which offers double troubleshoot­ing capabilities by combining the power of an industrial safety-rated digital multimeter (DMM) and a mA loop ...

Delay-locked loops (DLLs) are critical components in modern electronic systems, providing robust synchronisation of clock signals in a variety of applications ranging from high-speed communication to ...
