Precalibrated input spans of 0 V to 2 V and 0 V to 10 V are selected by simple pin strapping; other spans may be programmed with external resistors. An alarm warns of an open 4–20 mA loop or noncompliance of the output stage. Active laser trimming of the AD694’s thin film resistors results in high levels of accuracy without the need for additional adjustments and calibration. An external pass transistor may be used with the AD694 to off-load power dissipation, extending the temperature range of operation. The AD694 is the ideal building block for systems requiring noise im...
