Current loops have become the standard for signal transmission in the process control industry. Current loops are insensitive to noise and are immune to errors from line impedance. Burr-Brown offers a complete line of monolithic 4mA to 20mA current loop transmitters and receivers. General purpose two-wire 4-20mA current-loop transmitter. This transmitter has an instrumentation amplifier input and two 1mA current sources for transducer excitation and offsetting.
