This reference design is a four channel-to-channel, isolated 4–20 mA, current-loop analog input module. The design includes a short circuit, overcurrent and overvoltage limit function for condition monitoring sensor and module applications. The major features of this analog input module design include channel isolation, a multi-channel analog input module powered up by a single flyback converter using LM5180, a power supply to 2-wire transmitter and short-circuit protection circuit. This design can also support a four-channel analog input module.
          Features
          
          
	- One to four channel-to-channel isolated analog input module
 
	- Supply for field transmitters with output power limitation (short limited to 25 mA)
 
	- Transmitter supply of 25 ±1V, IOUT < 25-mA peak
 
	- Input protected against miswiring
 
	- UART interface 24b ΔΣADC to reduce BOM size and cost
