ad694 ? rev. b typical minimum supply voltage vs. temperature for 2 v and 10 v full scale maximum r l vs. supply voltage voltage reference power supply rejection i out : voltage compliance vs. temperature functional description the operation of the ad694 can best be understood by dividing the circuit into three functional parts (see figure 1). first, a single supply input amplifier buffers the high level, single-ended input signal. the buffer amplifier drives the second section, a voltage to current (v/i) converter, that makes a 0 to 16 ma sig- nal dependent current. figure 1. functional block diagram the third section, a voltage reference and offset generator, is re- sponsible for providing the 4 ma offset current signal. buffer amplifier the buffer amplifier is a single supply amplifier that may be used as a unity gain buffer, an output amplifier for a current output dac, or as a gain block to amplify low level signals. the amplifier? pnp input stage has a common-mode range that ex- tends from a few hundred mv below ground to within 2.5 v of v s . the class a output of the amplifier appears at pin 1 (fb). the output range extends from about 1 mv above common to within 2.5 v of v s when the amplifier is operated as a follower. the amplifier can source a maximum load of 5 k ? , but can sink only as much as its internal 10 k ? pulldown resistor allows. v/i converter the ground referenced, input signal from the buffer amplifier is converted to a 0 to 0.8 ma current by a2 and level shifted to the positive supply. a current mirror then multiplies this signal by a factor of 20 to make the signal current of 0 to 16 ma. this technique allows the output stage to drive a load to within 2 v of the positive supply (v s ). amplifier a2 forces the voltage at pin 1 across resistors r1 and r2 by driving the darlington tran- sistor, q2. the high gain darlington transmits the resistor cur- rent to its collector and to r3 (900 ? ). a3 forces the level shifted signal across the 45 ? resistor to get a current gain of 20. the transfer function of the v/i stage is therefore: ivr1 r2 out pin1 = + () 20 / resulting in a 0-16 ma output swing for a 0?0 v input. tying pin 4 (2 v fs) to ground shorts out r2 and results in a 2 v full-scale input for a 16 ma output span. the output stage of the v/i converter is of a unique design that allows the i out pin to drive a load below the common (sub- strate) potential of the device. the output transistor can always drive a load to a point 36 v below the positive supply (v s ). an

ad694 ? rev. b an npn boost transistor can be added in the 2 v mode to in- crease the current drive capability of the 2 v reference. the 10 v force pin is connected to the base of the npn, and the npn emitter is connected to the 2 v sense pin. the minimum v s of the part increases by approximately 0.7 v. 4.5 v single supply operation for operation with a 4.5 v power supply, the input span and the voltage reference output must be reduced to give the amplifiers their required 2.5 v of headroom for operation. this is done by adjusting the ad694 for 2 v full-scale input, and a voltage ref- erence output of 2 v as described above. general design guidelines a 0.1 f decoupling capacitor is recommended in all applica- tions from v s (pin 13) to com (pin 5). additional components may be required if the output load is nonresistive, see section on driving nonresistive loads. the buffer amplifier pnp inputs should not be brought more negative than ?.3 v from com- mon, or they will begin to source large amounts of current. in- put protection resistors must be added to the inputs if there is a danger of this occurring. the output of the buffer amplifier, pin 1 (fb), is not short circuit protected. shorting this pin to ground or v s with a signal present on the amplifier may damage it. input signals should not drive pin 1 (fb) directly; always use the buffer amplifier to buffer input signals. driving nonresistive loads the ad694 is designed to be stable when driving resistive loads. adding a 0.01 f capacitor from i out (pin 11) to com (pin 5), as shown in figure 3, ensures the stability of the ad694 when driving inductive or poorly defined loads. this capacitor is rec- ommended when there is any uncertainty as to the characteris- tics of the load. figure 3. capacitor utilized when driving nonresistive loads; protection diodes used when driving inductive loads additional protection is recommended when driving inductive loads. figure 3 shows two protective diodes, d1 and d2, added to protect against voltage spikes that may extend above v s or below common that could damage the ad694. these diodes should be used in addition to the 0.01 f capacitor. when the optional npn transistor is used, the capacitor and diodes should connect to the npn emitter instead of pin 11. 0-20 ma operation a 0?0 ma output range is available with the ad694 by remov- ing the 4 ma offset current with the 4 ma on/off pin. in nor- mal 4?0 ma operation, the 4 ma on/off (pin 9) is tied to ground, enabling the 4 ma offset current. tying pin 9 to a po- tential of 3 v or greater turns off the 4 ma offset current; con- necting pin 9 to the 10 v reference, the positive supply, or a ttl control pin, is a convenient way to do this. in 0?0 ma mode, the input span is increased by 20%, thus the precalibrated input spans of 2 v and 10 v become 2.5 v and 12.5 v. minimum supply voltages for the two spans increase to 5 v and 15 v. the 4 ma on/off pin may also be used as a ?iggle pin?to unstick valves or actuators, or as a way to shut off a 4?0 ma loop entirely. note that the pin only removes the 4 ma offset and not the signal current. dual supply operation figure 4 shows the ad694 operated in dual supply mode. (note that the pass transistor is shown for illustration and is not re- quired for dual supply operation.) the device is powered com- pletely by the positive supply which may be as low as 4.5 v. the unique design of the output stage allows the i out pin to extend below common to a negative supply. the output stage can source a current to a point 36 v below the positive supply. for example, when operated with a 12.5 v supply, the ad694 can source a current to a point as low as 23.5 v below common. this feature can simplify the interface to dual supply dacs by eliminating grounding and level-shifting problems while increas- ing the load that the transmitter is able to drive. note that the i out pin is the only pin that should be allowed to extend lower than ?.3 v of common. operation with a pass transistor the ad694 can operate as a stand-alone 4?0 ma converter with no additional active components. however, provisions have been made to connect i out to the base of an external npn pass transistor as shown in figure 4. this permits a majority of the power dissipation to be moved off-chip to enhance performance and extend the temperature range of operation. note that the positive output voltage compliance is reduced by approximately 0.7 v, the v be of the pass device. a 50 ? resistor should be added in series with the pass transistor collector, when the ad694 is operated with dual supplies, as shown in figure 4. this will not reduce the voltage compliance of the output stage. the external pass transistor selected should have a bv ceo greater than the intended supply voltage with a sufficient power rating for continuous operation with 25 ma current at the sup- ply voltage. f t should be in the 10 mhz to 100 mhz range and should be greater than 10 at a 20 ma emitter current. heat sinking the external pass transistor is suggested.
ad694 rev. b ? figure 4. using optional pass transistor to minimize self-heating errors; dual supply operation shown power dissipation considerations the ad694 is rated for operation over its specified temperature without the use of an external pass transistor. however, it is possible to exceed the absolute maximum power dissipation, with some combinations of power supply voltage and voltage reference load. the internal dissipation of the part can be calcu- lated to determine if there is a chance that the absolute maxi- mum dissipation may be exceeded. the die temperature must never exceed 150 c. total power dissipation (p tot ), is the sum of power dissipated by the internal amplifiers, p (standing), the voltage reference, p(v ref ) and the current output stage, p(i out ) as follows: p tot = p (standing) + p (v ref ) + p (i out ) where: p (standing) = 2 ma (max) v s p (v ref ) = ( v s ?v ref ) i vref p(i out ) (v s v out ) i out (max): i out ( max ) may be the max expected operating cur- rent, or the overdriven current of the device. p(i out ) drops to (2 v i out ) if a pass transistor is used. definitions: v ref = output voltage of reference i vref = output current of reference v s = supply voltage v out = voltage at i out pin. an appropriate safety factor should be added to p tot . the junction temperature may be calculated with the following formula: t j = p tot ( jc + ca ) + t ambient jc is the thermal resistance between the chip and the package (case), ca is the thermal resistance between the case and its surroundings and is determined by the characteristics of the thermal connection of the case to ambient. for example, assume that the part is operating with a v s of 24 v in the cerdip package at 50 c, with a 1 ma load on the 10 v reference. assume that i out is grounded and that the max i out would be 20 ma. the internal dissipation would be: p( tot ) = 2 ma 24 v + (24 v ?10 v) 1 ma + (24 v ?0 v) 20 ma = 48 mw + 14 mw + 480 mw = 542 mw using jc of 30 c/w and ca of 70 c/w (from specifications page), the junction temperature is: t j = 542 mw (30 c/w + 70 c/w) + 50 c = 104.2 c the junction temperature is in the safe region. internal power dissipation can be reduced either by reducing the value of ca through the use of air flow or heat sinks, or by re- ducing p tot of the ad694 through the use of an external pass transistor. figure 5 shows the maximum case and still air tem- peratures for a given level of power dissipation. figure 5. internal power dissipation in mw adjustment procedures the following sections describe methods for trimming the out- put current offset, the span, and the voltage reference. adjusting 4 ma zero the 4 ma zero current may be adjusted over the range of 2 ma to 4.8 ma to accommodate large input signal offsets, or to allow small adjustment in the zero current. the zero may be adjusted by pulling up or down on pin 6 (4 ma adj) to increase or de- crease the nominal offset current. the 4 ma adj. (pin 6) should not be driven to a voltage greater than 1 v. the arrangement of
ad694 ? rev. b figure 6 will give an approximately linear adjustment of the 4 ma offset within fixed limits. to find the proper resistor val- ues, first select x, the desired range of adjustment as a fraction of 4 ma. substitute this value in the appropriate formula below along with the chosen reference output voltage (v ref = 2 v or 10 v usually), to determine the resistor values required. r p = 180 ? (1/x ?4.5) r f = 500 ? [ (v ref / 1.22 v) ?0.18 ?0.82x][1/x ?4.5] these formulae take into account the 10% internal resistor tolerance and ensure a minimum adjustment range for the 4 ma offset. for example, assume the 2 v reference option has been selected. choosing x = 0.05, gives an adjustment range of 5% of the 4 ma offset. r p = 180 ? (1/0.05 ?4.5) = 2.79 k ? r f = 500 ? [(2 v / 1.22) ?0.18 ?0.82 0.05][1/0.05 ?4.5] = 10.99 k ? these can be rounded down to more convenient values of 2.5 k ? and 9.76 k ? . in general, if the value of r p is rounded down slightly, the value of r f should be rounded down propor- tionately, and vice versa. this helps to keep the adjustment range symmetrical. figure 6. optional 4 ma zero adjustment adjusting span for 10 v fs when the ad694 is configured with a 10 v input full-scale the span maybe adjusted using the network shown in figure 7. this scheme allows an approximately linear adjustment of the span above or below the nominal value. the span adjustment does not interact with the 4 ma offset. to select r s and r t , choose figure 7. span adjustment, 10 v full scale x, the desired adjustment range as a fraction of the span. sub- stitute this value in the appropriate formula below. r t = 1.8 k ? ((1 ?x)/x) r s = 9 k ? [1 ?0.2 (1 + x)( 1 ?x )] / 2x these formulae take into account the 10% absolute resistor tolerance of the internal span resistors and ensure a minimum adjustment range of the span. for example, choosing the adjust- ment range to be 2%, or 0.02 gives: r t = 1.8 k ? ((1 ?0.02) / 0.02) = 88.2 k ? . r s = 9 k ? [1 ?0.2 (1 + 0.02)( 1 ?0.02 )] / (2 0.02) = 175.5 k ? these values can be rounded up to the more convenient values of 100 k ? and 198 k ? . in general, if r t is rounded up, then the value of r s should be rounded up proportionally, and vice versa. adjusting span for 2 v fs the precalibrated 2 v full-scale range requires a different ad- justment scheme due to the single supply nature of the ad694. figure 8 shows an adjustment scheme that allows an approxi- mately linear adjustment of the 2 v span plus or minus the nominal value. the span adjustment does not affect the value of the 4 ma offset current. to find the proper resistor values first select x, the desired range of adjustment as a fraction of the output span. substitute this value into the following formulae: r a = 2 x r b where r b is greater than 5 k r c = ( 2.75 k? x )/( 1 ? 0.275 x) these formulae take into account the 10% absolute tolerance of the internal span resistors and ensure a minimum adjustment range. for example, choosing the adjustment range to be 320 a of fs or, 2%, let x = 0.02. thus: setting r b = 10 k, then r a = 2(.02) 10 k ? = 400 ? r c = (2.75 k ? 0.02)/ (1 ?0.275 (0.02)) = 55.3 ? the value of r c can be rounded to the more convenient value of 49.9 ? . in general, if r a is rounded up, then r c should be rounded up proportionally, and vice versa; rounding up will in- crease the range of adjustment.
ad694 rev. b ? figure 8. span adjustment, 2 v full scale programming other spans there are two methods for programming input spans less than 10 v. the first decreases the input span by programming a non- inverting gain into the buffer amplifier. for example, to achieve an input span of 0? v, the ad694 is set in its 10 v full-scale mode and the buffer amplifier is configured with a noninverting gain of 2 by adding 2 resistors. now a 5 v signal at +sig results in a 10 v full-scale signal at fb (pin 1), the input to the v/i. this method requires that the v/i be programmed to a 10 v full scale for input spans between 2 v to 10 v. it should be pro- grammed to a 2 v full scale if input spans of less than 2 v are required. this adjustment scheme makes the accuracy of the span adjustment dependent upon the ratio accuracy of the re- quired gain resistors. thus, it is possible to accurately configure spans other than 2 v or 10 v without using trimming potenti- ometers, given that the resistor ratios are sufficiently accurate. a supply voltage of 12.5 v is required for spans between 2 v and 10 v. spans below 2 v require a v s of 4.5 v or greater. a second method, allows other spans of less than 10 v to be programmed when supply voltage is less than 12.5 v. since the ad694 amplifiers require 2.5 v of headroom for operation, a 5 v full-scale input is possible with a 7.5 v supply. this is achieved by placing a resistor, in parallel with r2, (2 v fs [pin 4] to com [pin 5]), to adjust the transconductance of the v/i converter without a headroom penalty. a disadvantage of this method is that the external resistor must match the internal re- sistor in a precise manner, thus a span trim will be required. the value should be chosen to allow for the 10% uncertainty in the absolute value of the internal resistor r2. adjusting reference output figure 9 shows one method of making small adjustments to the 10 v reference output. this circuit allows a linear adjustment range of 200 mv. the 2 v reference may also be adjusted but only in the positive direction. other reference voltages can be programmed by adding external resistors. for example, a resistor placed in parallel with r5 can be added to boost the reference output as high as 20 v. con- versely, a resistor in parallel with r6 can be used to set the refer- ence voltage to a value between 2 v and 10 v. the output v oltage v ref = 2 v (r6 + r5)/r5. in choosing external adjustment resistors remember that the internal resistors, while ratio matched to a high degree of accuracy, have an absolute re- sistor tolerance of only 10%. be prepared to compensate for this if a precise voltage other than the precalibrated values of 2 v or 10 v is required. figure 9. 10 v reference output adjustment bandwidth control the bandwidth of the ad694 can be limited to provide noise filtering. this is achieved by connecting an external capacitor from bw adj (pin 14) to v s (pin 13) as shown in figure 10. to program the bandwidth, substitute the desired bandwidth in hz, into the formula below to determine the required capacitor. c bw = 12 900 /( ) ? the bandwidth chosen will vary 10% due to internal resistor tolerance, plus an additional amount due to capacitor tolerance. this method of bandwidth control is not recommended as a way to filter large high frequency transients in the input signal. it is recommended that frequencies greater than the bw of the buffer amplifier be eliminated with an input filter to avoid recti- fication of noise by the input amplifiers. figure 10. noise filtering with an external capacitor buffer amplifier offset adjust the buffer amplifier input voltage offset has been laser trimmed to a high degree of accuracy; however, there may be occasions when an offset trim is desired. figure 11 shows the adjustment method; a trim range of greater than 2.5 mv is available with this scheme. it is not recommended that this adjustment method be used to affect the 4 ma offset current as the trim will induce offset drift into the buffer amplifier. the buffer amplifier will drift approximately 1 v/ c for each 300 v of induced offset. to adjust the 4 ma offset current refer to the adjusting 4 ma zero section.
ad694 ?0 rev. b figure 11. buffer amplifier v os adjustment applications current output dac interface the ad694 can be easily interfaced to current output dacs such as the ad566a to construct a digital to 4?0 ma interface as shown in figure 13. the ad694 provides the voltage refer- ence and the buffer amplifier necessary to operate the dac. only simple connections are necessary to construct the circuit. the 10 v reference of the ad694 supplies reference input of the ad566. the buffer amplifier converts the full-scale current to +10 v utilizing the internal resistors in the dac; therefore the ad694 is configured for a 10 v full-scale input. a 10 pf capaci- tor compensates for the 25 pf output capacitance of the dac. an optional 100 ? trim resistor (r t ) allows the full-scale to be trimmed, a 50 ? resistor may be substituted if a trim is not re- quired; accuracy will be typically 1 lsb and the trim does not affect the 4 ma offset. care should be taken in managing the circuit grounds. connections from ad694 pins 9, 3 and ad566 pins 3 and 7 should be as short as possible and to a single point close to pin 5 of the ad694. best practice would have separate connections to the star ground from each pin; this is essential figure 12. using the alarm to drive a ttl gate alarm circuit the ad694 has an alarm circuit which warns of open circuit conditions at i out (pin 11), or of attempts to drive the voltage at i out higher than v s ?2 v. the alarm transistor will pull down if an out of control condition is sensed. the alarm current is limited to about 20 ma. figure 12 shows a typical application. in a digital/analog system the alarm can provide a ttl signal to a controller. the collec- tor of the alarm transistor is tied to the system logic supply through a 20 k ? pull-up resistor. the alarm is off in normal op- eration and the voltage at the alarm pin is high. in the event that the wire from i out (pin 11) is opened, or if a large input over- drive forces i out too close to v s , then the alarm pin is driven low. this configuration is compatible with cmos or ttl logic levels. the alarm transistor can also be used to directly drive an led or other indicators. for the ad566 power ground from pin 12. the 4?0 ma output (pin 11) must have a return path to the power ground. the re- turn line from the load may be connected to the power ground, or to the ?5 v supply based upon the size of the load to be driven, and on power dissipation considerations. single-supply digital to 4?0 ma interface a 12 bit input to 4?0 ma output interface can be constructed that operates on a single 15 v supply. the dac is operated in its voltage switching mode; this allows the dac, when supplied with a voltage reference of less than 2.5 v, to provide an output voltage that is proportional to the digital input code and ranges from 0 v to v ref . the ad694 voltage reference is connected to supply 2 v and the input stage is set to a 2 v full scale; the input buffer amplifier serves to buffer the voltage output from the dac. connected in this manner, a full-scale dac input code will result in a 20 ma output and an all 0 code will result in a 4 ma output. the loading on the ad694 voltage reference is

ad694 ?2 rev. b figure 15. low cost sensor transmitter the circuit shown, will convert a positive differential signal at v in to a 4?0 ma current. the circuit has common-mode range of 3 v to 8 v. the low end of the common-mode range is lim ited by the ad708? ability to pull down on r s . a single supply am- plifier could be used instead to extend the common-mode range down to about 1.5 v. as shown, the circuit handles positive differential signals (v in positive). to handle bipolar differential signals (v in is positive or negative), the reference pin of the in amp (point c) must be offset positively from the 2 v reference. for example, discon- necting point c from the 2 v reference and connecting it to a 3 v source would result in a v a of 1 v (or half scale) for a zero volt differential input from the sensor.
