transmitter compliance voltage is at a premium. The
10V reference provides a precise 10V output with a
typical drift of 5ppm/°C.
The RCV420 is completely self-contained and offers a
highly versatile function. No adjustments are needed
for gain, offset, or CMR. This provides three important
advantages over discrete, board-level designs: 1) lower
initial design cost, 2) lower manufacturing cost, and
3) easy, cost-effective field repair of a precision circuit.
DESCRIPTION
The RCV420 is a precision current-loop receiver de-
signed to convert a 4–20mA input signal into a 0–5V
output signal. As a monolithic circuit, it offers high
reliability at low cost. The circuit consists of a pre-
mium grade operational amplifier, an on-chip precision
resistor network, and a precision 10V reference. The
RCV420 features 0.1% overall conversion accuracy,
86dB CMR, and ±40V common-mode input range.
The circuit introduces only a 1.5V drop at full scale,
which is useful in loops containing extra instrument
burdens or in intrinsically safe applications where

necessary level shifting. If the Ref In pin is not used for level
shifting, then it must be grounded to maintain high CMR.
GAIN AND OFFSET ADJUSTMENT
Figure 2 shows the circuit for adjusting the RCV420 gain.
Increasing the gain of the RCV420 is accomplished by
inserting a small resistor in the feedback path of the ampli-
fier. Increasing the gain using this technique results in CMR
degradation, and therefore, gain adjustments should be kept
as small as possible. For example, a 1% increase in gain is
typically realized with a 125 resistor, which degrades
CMR by about 6dB.
A decrease in gain can be achieved by placing matched
resistors in parallel with the sense resistors, also shown in
Figure 2. The adjusted gain is given by the following
expression
VOUT/IIN = 0.3125 x RX/(RX + RS).
A 1% decrease in gain can be achieved with a 7.5k
resistor. It is important to match the parallel resistance on
each sense resistor to maintain high CMR. The TCR mis-
match between the two external resistors will effect gain
error drift and CMR drift.
There are two methods for nulling the RCV420 output offset
voltage. The first method applies to applications using the
internal 10V reference for level shifting. For these applica-
FIGURE 1. Basic Power Supply and Signal Connections.
THEORY OF OPERATION
Refer to the figure on the first page. For 0 to 5V output with
4–20mA input, the required transimpedance of the circuit is:
VOUT/IIN = 5V/16mA = 0.3125V/mA.
To achieve the desired output (0V for 4mA and 5V for
20mA), the output of the amplifier must be offset by an
amount:
VOS = – (4mA)(0.3125V/mA) = –1.25V.
The input current signal is connected to either +In or –In,
depending on the polarity of the signal, and returned to
ground through the center tap, CT. The balanced input—two
matched 75 sense resistors, RS—provides maximum rejec-
tion of common-mode voltage signals on CT and true differ-
ential current-to-voltage conversion. The sense resistors
convert the input current signal into a proportional voltage,
which is amplified by the differential amplifier. The voltage
gain of the amplifier is:
AD = 5V/(16mA)(75) = 4.1667V/V.
The tee network in the feedback path of the amplifier
provides a summing junction used to generate the required
–1.25V offset voltage. The input resistor network provides
high-input impedance and attenuates common-mode input
voltages to levels suitable for the operational amplifier’s
common-mode signal capabilities.
BASIC POWER SUPPLY
AND SIGNAL CONNECTIONS
Figure 1 shows the proper connections for power supply and
signal. Both supplies should be decoupled with 1µF tanta-
lum capacitors as close to the amplifier as possible. To avoid
gain and CMR errors introduced by the external circuit,
connect grounds as indicated, being sure to minimize ground
resistance. The input signal should be connected to either
+In or –In, depending on its polarity, and returned to ground
through the center tap, CT. The output of the voltage refer-
ence, Ref Out, should be connected to Ref In for the

tions, the voltage reference output trim procedure can be
used to null offset errors at the output of the RCV420. The
voltage reference trim circuit is discussed under “Voltage
Reference.”
When the voltage reference is not used for level shifting or
when large offset adjustments are required, the circuit in
Figure 3 can be used for offset adjustment. A low impedance
on the Rcv Com pin is required to maintain high CMR.
ZERO ADJUSTMENT
Level shifting the RCV420 output voltage can be achieved
using either the Ref In pin or the Rcv Com pin. The
disadvantage of using the Ref In pin is that there is an 8:1
voltage attenuation from this pin to the output of the RCV420.
Thus, use the Rcv Com pin for large offsets, because the
voltage on this pin is seen directly at the output. Figure 4
shows the circuit used to level-shift the output of the RCV420
using the Rcv Com pin. It is important to use a low-output
impedance amplifier to maintain high CMR. With this method
of zero adjustment, the Ref In pin must be connected to the
Rcv Com pin.
MAINTAINING COMMON-MODE REJECTION
Two factors are important in maintaining high CMR: (1)
resistor matching and tracking (the internal resistor network
does this) and (2) source impedance. CMR depends on the
accurate matching of several resistor ratios. The high accu-
racies needed to maintain the specified CMR and CMR
temperature coefficient are difficult and expensive to reli-
ably achieve with discrete components. Any resistance im-
balance introduced by external circuitry directly affects
CMR. These imbalances can occur by: mismatching sense
resistors when gain is decreased, adding resistance in the
feedback path when gain is increased, and adding series
resistance on the Rcv Com pin.
The two sense resistors are laser-trimmed to typically match
within 0.01%; therefore, when adding parallel resistance to
decrease gain, take care to match the parallel resistance on
each sense resistor. To maintain high CMR when increasing
the gain of the RCV420, keep the series resistance added to
the feedback network as small as possible. Whether the Rcv
Com pin is grounded or connected to a voltage reference for
level shifting, keep the series resistance on this pin as low as
possible. For example, a resistance of 20 on this pin
degrades CMR from 86dB to approximately 80dB. For
applications requiring better than 86dB CMR, the circuit
shown in Figure 5 can be used to adjust CMR.
PROTECTING THE SENSE RESISTOR
The 75 sense resistors are designed for a maximum con-
tinuous current of 40mA, but can withstand as much as
250mA for up to 0.1s (see absolute maximum ratings).
There are several ways to protect the sense resistor from

overcurrent conditions exceeding these specifications. Refer
to Figure 6. The simplest and least expensive method is a
resistor as shown in Figure 6a. The value of the resistor is
determined from the expression
RX = VCC/40mA – 75
and the full scale voltage drop is
VRX = 20mA x RX.
For a system operating off of a 32V supply RX = 725 and
VRX = 14.5V. In applications that cannot tolerate such a
large voltage drop, use circuits 6b or 6c. In circuit 6b a
power JFET and source resistor are used as a current limit.
The 200 potentiometer, RX, is adjusted to provide a current
limit of approximately 30mA. This circuit introduces a
1– 4V drop at full scale. If only a very small series voltage
drop at full scale can be tolerated, then a 0.032A series 217
fast-acting fuse should be used, as shown in Figure 6c.
For automatic fold-back protection, use the circuit shown in
Figure 15.
VOLTAGE REFERENCE
The RCV420 contains a precision 10V reference. Figure 8
shows the circuit for output voltage adjustment. Trimming
the output will change the voltage drift by approximately
0.007ppm/°C per mV of trimmed voltage. Any mismatch in
TCR between the two sides of the potentiometer will also
affect drift, but the effect is divided by approximately 5. The
trim range of the voltage reference using this method is
typically ±400mV. The voltage reference trim can be used to
trim offset errors at the output of the RCV420. There is an
8:1 voltage attenuation from Ref In to Rcv Out, and thus the
trim range at the output of the receiver is typically ±50mV.
The high-frequency noise (to 1MHz) of the voltage refer-
ence is typically 1mVp-p. When the voltage reference is
used for level shifting, its noise contribution at the output of
the receiver is typically 125µVp-p due to the 8:1 attenuation
from Ref In to Rcv Out. The reference noise can be reduced
by connecting an external capacitor between the Noise
Reduction pin and ground. For example, 0.1µF capacitor
reduces the high-frequency noise to about 200µVp-p at the
output of the reference and about 25µVp-p at the output of
the receiver.
