Circuit Note  
Digital Data Processing, Algorithm, and Communications  
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION  
All the field instrument digital functions are provided by the  
ADuCM360 32-bit ARM Cortex™ M3 RISC processor, with  
integrated 128 k bytes of nonvolatile flash/EE memory, 8 k bytes  
of SRAM, and an 11-channel direct memory access (DMA)  
controller that supports wired (2× SPI, UART, I²C) communication  
peripherals.  
Analog Front-End Interface  
The ADuCM360 analog front-end incorporates dual, high  
performance 24-bit sigma-delta (Σ-Δ) analog-to-digital converters  
(ADCs). It also integrates programmable gain instrumentation  
amplifiers, a precision band-gap reference, programmable current  
sources, a flexible multiplexer, and many other features. It allows a  
direct interface to multiple analog sensors, such as pressure  
sensor bridges, resistive temperature sensors, thermocouples,  
and many other types of sensors used in the industry.  
The demonstration software performs the initialization and  
configuration, processes data from the analog inputs, controls  
the analog output, and performs the HART communication.  
The circuit in Figure 1 shows an example connection for a primary  
bridge type sensor and a secondary resistive temperature sensor;  
however the ADuCM360 flexible front-end allows many other  
configurations to accommodate any type of precision analog  
sensor application.  
Analog Output  
The AD5421 integrates a low power precision 16-bit DAC with  
a 4 mA to 20 mA, loop powered output driver and provides all  
functions required for the field instrument analog output.  
The AD5421 interfaces with the ADuCM360 controller via the  
SPI interface.  
Primary Sensor Input  
The ADuCM360 on-chip ADC0 measures the field instrument  
primary sensor, shown as a bridge transducer in Figure 1. The  
sensor connects to the analog input pins, AIN0 and AIN1, via an  
RC filter network for improved system electromagnetic immunity.  
The common-mode filter bandwidth is approximately 16 kHz,  
and the differential-mode bandwidth is 800 Hz.  
The AD5421 also includes a range of diagnostic functions  
related to the 4 mA to 20 mA loop. The auxiliary ADC can  
measure the voltage across the instruments loop terminals via  
the 20 MΩ/1 MΩ resistive divider connected to the VLOOP pin.  
The ADC can also measure the chip temperature via the integrated  
sensor. The ADuCM360 controller can configure and read all  
the diagnostics of the AD5421, but the AD5421 can also operate  
autonomously.  
The ADuCM360 VREF+ and VREF− voltage reference inputs  
sense the bridge excitation voltage and enable the circuit to work in  
a ratiometric mode, making the measurement independent of  
the exact value of the sensor power supply voltage. The on-chip  
ground switch can dynamically disconnect the bridge excitation  
and save power when required by the application.  
As an example, if the communication between the controller and  
the AD5421 fails, the AD5421 automatically sets its analog  
output to a 3.2 mA alarm current after a defined period. This  
alarm current indicates to the host that the field instrument  
failed to operate.  
Secondary Sensor Input  
The circuit uses a platinum (Pt) 100 Ω resistive temperature  
device (RTD) as a secondary sensor. The RTD can sense the  
temperature of the primary sensor and thus allow for temperature  
compensation of the primary sensor if required.  
The software controls any change of the output current from  
one value to another to prevent disturbance of the HART  
communication. (See the Analog Rate of Change section).  
HART Communication  
The ADuCM360 programmable current source supplies the RTD  
via the AIN4 pin. The ADC1 on the ADuCM360 measures the  
voltage across the RTD using the AIN3 and AIN2 pins configured  
as a differential input. The exact value of the current flowing  
through the RTD is sensed by a precision resistor (RREF) and is  
measured by the ADC1 using the AIN7 pin. The ADC1 uses the  
on-chip, band-gap voltage reference.  
The AD5700 integrates a complete HART FSK modem. The  
modem is connected to the ADuCM360 controller via a standard  
UART interface, complemented by request to send (RTS) and  
carrier detect (CD) signals.  
The HART output is scaled to the required amplitude by the  
0.068 µF/0.22 µF capacitive divider and coupled to the AD5421  
C
IN pin, where it is combined with the DAC output to drive and  
modulate the output current.  
The HART input is coupled from LOOP+ via a simple passive  
RC filter to the AD5700 ADC_IP pin. The RC filter works as  
the first stage, band-pass filter for the HART demodulator and  
also improves the system electromagnetic immunity, which is  
important for robust applications working in harsh industrial  
environments.  
The AD5700 low power oscillator generates the clock for the  
HART modem with a 3.8664 MHz external crystal connected  
directly to the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins.  
Rev. A | Page 2 of 8  
Circuit Note  
CN-0267  
Output Protection  
The AD5700 HART modem is supplied through an additional  
RC filter (470 Ω/1 µF). This filter is very important in the loop  
powered application because it prevents current noise from the  
AD5700 from coupling to the 4 mA to 20 mA loop output, which  
would otherwise affect the HART communication. The 4 mA to  
20 mA loop noise performance is specifically addressed by the  
HART in-band, noise during silence test. The AD5700 modem  
uses the external crystal with 8.2 pF capacitors to ground on the  
XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins, which is the option using the least  
possible power.  
A transient voltage suppressor (TVS) protects the 4 mA to 20 mA  
HART interface from overvoltage. Its voltage rating should prevent  
exceeding the AD5421 absolute maximum voltage of 60 V on  
the REGIN pin. Note that the TVS leakage current can affect the  
current output accuracy; therefore, pay attention to the leakage  
current at a given loop voltage and temperature range when  
selecting this component.  
An external depletion-mode FET can be used with the AD5421  
to increase the loop voltage maximum  
The ADuCM360 has very flexible internal power management,  
with many options for powering and clocking all the internal  
blocks and, when utilized by the software, allows an optimal  
balance between the required function, performance, and power  
for the specific instrument application. Refer to the ADuCM360  
product page and the AN-1111 Application Note.  
The circuit is protected against reversed polarity by a pair of  
diodes in series with loop output.  
The ferrite beads in series with the loop together with the 4700 pF  
capacitor improve the system EMC performance. Do not use a  
higher capacitance across the loop terminals because of the HART  
network specifications.  
The analog front-end AVDD is supplied from another filter  
(10 µF/ferrite bead/1.6 Ω/10 µF) to minimize power supply noise  
for better performance with respect to low voltage sensor signals.  
The 4.7 V, low leakage, Zener diode protects the AD5421 on-chip,  
50 Ω loop sense resistor in the event of an accidental external  
voltage between the AD5421 COM pin and LOOP− pin (for  
example, when programming the ADuCM360 or debugging  
the circuit).  
The GND_SW ground switch pin of the ADuCM360 controls  
the excitation/power supply for the primary sensor. The switch  
is off as a default at the instrument power up. This default allows  
the system to be fully configured, including appropriate power  
modes, before turning on the sensor, and thus minimizes any  
possible power-up spikes on the 4 mA to 20 mA loop output.  
Power Supplies and Power Management  
The complete field instrument circuitry, including the sensor drive  
current, must operate on the limited amount of power available  
from the 4 mA to 20 mA loop. This is a common challenge in  
any loop powered field instrument design. The circuit in Figure 1  
provides an example of delivering both a low power and high  
performance solution. All three integrated circuits used in the  
application are designed for low power, and the circuit leverages  
their integrated features to deliver a flexible power management  
structure and an optimum loop-powered solution.  
Similarly, the secondary sensor is supplied from the programmable  
current source of the ADuCM360, and therefore, its power is  
fully controlled by the software.  
ADuCM360 Software  
A basic code example that demonstrates the functionality and  
performance of the circuit can be found in the CN-0267 Design  
Support Package.  
The AD5421 is powered by the 4 mA to 20 mA loop voltage and  
provides a regulated low voltage for the rest of the circuit. The  
AD5421 REGOUT voltage is pin programmable from 1.8 V to 12 V  
depending on circuit requirements. The circuit in Figure 1 uses  
the 3.3 V supply voltage option as an example for the input sensors  
used. However, the ADuCM360 and the AD5700 have a wider  
power supply voltage range; therefore, a different power supply  
voltage can be used to suit the application.  
The code example includes a basic HART slave command response  
to demonstrate the hardware function and capability. However,  
the code example does not include the protocol layers of the  
HART communication.  
COMMON VARIATIONS  
The ADuCM360 has a high performance and very flexible analog  
front-end, with 12 analog input pins and extra pins for voltage  
reference and ground switch. It allows direct interface to multiple  
analog sensors of varying types, such as any resistive bridge sensors,  
resistive temperature sensors, or thermocouples. Therefore, do  
not limit the field instrument solution to temperature-compensated  
pressure measurement only because it can be used for almost any  
sensor field instrument.  
The REGOUT RC filter (10 µF/10 Ω/10 µF) helps to prevent any  
interference coming from the loop affecting the sensor analog  
front-end. It also prevents any interference generated by the  
circuit, specifically by the controller and the digital circuitry,  
from coupling back to the loop, which is important for a reliable  
HART communication.  
The ADuCM361 can be used as an alternative to the ADuCM360  
in applications that need only one Σ-Δ ADC in the analog front-  
end. Aside from the second ADC, the ADuCM361 contains all  
the features of the ADuCM360.

Circuit Note  
The ADuCM361 on-chip DAC with an external transistor can  
be used to control the 4 mA to 20 mA loop, refer to CN-0300  
for details.  
CIRCUIT EVALUATION AND TEST  
Circuit Hardware  
The circuit shown in Figure 1 is built on the DEMO-AD5700D2Z  
printed circuit board shown in Figure 3.  
The AD5421 can be connected via the protection directly to the  
loop. Alternatively, a depletion mode N-channel MOSFET can  
be connected between the AD5421 and the loop power supply,  
as shown in Figure 2. The use of the additional MOSEFT in  
this configuration keeps the voltage drop across the AD5421 at  
approximately 12 V, lowers the power dissipated in the AD5421  
package, and therefore improves the 4 mA to 20 mA analog output  
accuracy. It also increases the maximum voltage allowed in the  
loop to the level of the MOSFET rating. The additional MOSFET  
has no effect on the HART communication.

These features are not shown in the simplified diagram in Figure 1;  
however, they can be seen in the complete circuit schematic in  
the CN-0267 Design Support Package. The design support package  
also includes a full field instrument C-code example, which  
enables complete verification and evaluation of all hardware  
blocks and features of the circuit, and a limited verification of  
the HART interface functionality. For detailed information about  
HART interface specifications and resources, contact the Hart  
Communication Foundation.  
The AD5700 is used with a 3.8664 MHz crystal in this circuit,  
which is the configuration achieving the lowest power consumption.  
Alternatively, the AD5700-1, with an integrated 0.5 %precision  
internal oscillator, can be used. The internal oscillator increases  
the modem power supply current by 225 µA maximum, compared  
to the crystal oscillator, but because no external crystal is needed,  
this option provides both cost savings and reduced board area  
requirements.  
For the applications that are not loop powered, the AD5410,  
AD5420, AD5422, or AD5755 are good choices for the 4 mA to  
20 mA DAC.  
HART Compliance  
The DEMO-AD5700D2Z has been verified to be compliant with  
HART FSK Physical Layer Specification (HCF_SPEC-054,  
Revision 8.1), using methods and equipment specified in the  
HART Physical Layer Test Specification (HCF_TEST-2,  
Revision 2.2). The board was submitted to the Hart  
Communication Foundation and was successfully registered.  
The registered circuit can be found on the HART Communication  
Foundation (HFC) web site in the product catalog as DEMO-  
AD5700D2Z.  
The results of two of the tests involved the output noise during  
silence and the analog rate of change.  
Rev. A | Page 4 of 8  
 
 
Circuit Note  
CN-0267  
Output Noise During Silence Test  
The hardware slew-rate limit is set by the capacitance connected  
to the AD5421 CIN pin. When a large step change is required in  
the analog output current value, the ADuCM360 software splits  
the output current change sent to the AD5421 DAC into a number  
of smaller subsequent steps.  
When a HART device is not transmitting (silence), do not couple  
noise onto the network. Excessive noise may interfere with  
reception of HART signals by the device itself or other devices  
on the network.  
This test was performed using an oscilloscope coupled to the  
500 Ω load through the HCF_TOOL-31 filter.  
The voltage noise measured across a 500 Ω load in the loop must  
contain no more than 2.2 mV rms of combined broadband and  
correlated noise in the HART extended frequency band. In  
addition, the noise should not exceed 138 mV rms outside the  
HART extended frequency band.  
The result is shown in Figure 5. Waveform CH1 shows the periodic  
steps between 4 mA and 20 mA, sensed directly across the 500 Ω  
load. Waveform CH2 is the signal captured on the HCF_TOOL-31  
filter output, amplified 10×, within the 150 mV peak limits.  
This noise was measured by a true rms meter across the 500 Ω  
load. This noise was measured directly for the out-of-band noise  
and measured through the HCF_TOOL-31 filter for the in-band  
noise. An oscilloscope was also used to examine the noise  
waveform.

Considering the minimum analog output current of 4 mA and  
HART output ac modulation of 0.5 mA peak, the maximum  
current consumed by the circuit in normal mode operation must  
be less than 3.5 mA. The AD5421 requires a 0.3 mA maximum  
for its own operation, which leaves approximately 3.2 mA  
maximum current for the AD5421 REGOUT output.

For ease of in-circuit measurement, the DEMO-AD5700D2Z  
has test points (T5, T6) on each side of the 10 Ω resistor in the  
REGOUT output filter, as shown in Figure 6. This setup allows the  
voltage drop across the resistor to be measured, and the current  
to be calculated without interrupting the supply current or  
disturbing the circuit.  
Analog Rate of Change Test  
This specification ensures that when a device regulates the  
analog output current, the maximum rate of change of analog  
current does not interfere with HART communications. Step  
changes in current disrupt HART signaling.

The worst-case change in the analog output current must not

Circuit Note  
The results are shown in Table 2 and were measured at the  
following conditions:  
The demonstration was configured to transmit data from the  
primary analog input, expressed as pressure in kPa, over the  
HART communication. One hundred samples were captured,  
and a basic data analysis to quantify the performance was  
completed. Two of the tests involved the following:

A second test was performed with the primary input signal  
generated by a set of fixed and variable resistors, as shown  
in Figure 7.

Primary Sensor Input Performance  
The ADuCM360 integrates most of the analog front-end on chip;  
therefore, the performance of the analog input is primarily  
determined by the specifications of the ADuCM360.  
The level of noise is the main factor that can be influenced by  
the interaction of the analog front-end with the rest of the  
circuitry on the board. Thus, tests were carried out to focus on  
the noise and related resolution performance of the system.

The performance summary can be seen in Table 3, and the  
signal plots are shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9.  
Secondary Sensor Input Performance  
Similar to the primary sensor, the performance of the secondary  
sensor input is mainly determined by the analog front-end of  
the ADuCM360 with the exception of noise performance.

The analog input was configured to transmit temperature in  
degrees Celsius (°C) to a master over the HART communication  
path. Analysis was performed on two tests of 100 samples to  
quantify the performance.

The first test was performed using the platinum 100 Ω sensor  
on the board, and the second test was performed with the sensor  
replaced on the board by a standard (fixed) 100 Ω 1% resistor.
