Input Protection

Figure 2-7 shows input protection for the board starting with a TVS diode to prevent damage from over-voltage events. Ferrite beads and input capacitance also help reduce any high-frequency transients seen at the inputs. An input rectifier allows for operation when miswiring the positive and negative input, protecting the board.

When voltage is applied to the input terminals, the power is delivered to the circuit through LOOP+ and LOOP- setting the current in the 4-20mA loop.
