Adding HART Capability to the AD421, Loop-Powered 4 mA20 mA DAC Using the
20C15* HART Modem
by Albert OGrady
INTRODUCTION
The AD421 is a complete, loop-powered, digital to
4 mA20 mA converter designed to meet the needs of
smart transmitter manufacturers in the industrial control industry. It provides a high precision, fully integrated, low cost solution in a compact 16-lead package
and is ideal for extending the resolution of smart 4 mA
20 mA transmitters at very low cost. The HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) protocol is widely
accepted in the industry as the standard for digitally enhanced 4 mA20 mA communication with smart field instruments. This protocol makes use of the Bell 202
Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) standard to superimpose
digital signals at a low level on the 4 mA20 mA analog
signal. This allows two-way communication to take
place and makes it possible for additional information
beyond just the normal process variable to be communicated to/from a smart field instrument. The SYM20C15
from Symbios Logic is designed to allow the user implement a HART-compliant physical layer. This device

AD421 Current Control Circuitry
The AD421 contains a 16-bit sigma-delta DAC to convert
the digital information loaded to the input latch into a
current. The sigma-delta architecture is particularly useful for the relatively low bandwidth requirements of the
industrial control environment because of its inherent
monotonicity at high resolution. The AD421 guarantees
monotonicity to the 16-bit level.
