Isolated Loop Powered 4 to 20mA Field Transmitter Designs

Overview

TopologyHalf-Bridge Converter symmetrical isolated
Input voltage18-52 V
Switching frequency50-500 kHz
Output 10 A
Output 20.02 A

Description

This application note describes three designs of isolated low power supplies for 2-wire loop powered 4 to 20mAfield transmitters or sensors, which are all based on primary side half-bridge topology and secondary sideSchottky rectification. The design 1 is using a switching frequency of 50kHz and providing the best in classefficiency, which is available on ti.com as TIDA-00349. The design 2 focuses on optimizing the board spacewith operating switching frequency of 250kHz and using the customized low size transformer. Furthermore, thedesign 3 provides maximum of flexibility in terms of switching frequency up to 500kHz by using MSPM0 togenerate two channels of PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signals. This application note describes the design 3 indetail.
