The transistor must have sufficient Wheatstone bridge. With appropriate supply voltages, the gain breakdown voltage and IC. Low cost transistors, such as the BC847 and reference pin voltage can be adjusted to match the full-scale or 2N5210, are recommended. bridge output to any desired output range, such as 0 V to 5 V. PROCESS CONTROL ANALOG INPUT Figure 63 shows a circuit to convert a bridge signal into a 4 mA In process control systems such as programmable logic controllers to 20 mA output using the AD8276 low power, precision difference (PLC) and distributed control systems (DCS), analog variables amplifier, and the ADA4096-2 low power, rail-to-rail input and typically occur in just a few standard voltage or current ranges, output, overvoltage protected op amp. With high precision bridge including 4 mA to 20 mA and ±10 V. Variables within these input circuits, care must be taken to compensate offsets and temperature ranges must often be gained or attenuated and level shifted to errors. For example, if the voltage at the REF pin is used to match a specific ADC input range such as 0 V to 5 V. The circuit in compensate for the bridge offset, ensure that the AD8422 is within Figure 64 shows one way this can be done with a single AD8422. its operating range for the maximum expected offset. If the zero- Low power, overvoltage protection, and high precision make the adjust potentiometer is excluded, connect the positive op amp AD8422 a good match for process control applications, and high input to the center of the 24.9 kΩ, 10.7 kΩ divider, which is at input impedance, low bias current, and low current noise allow 1.5 V.
