16-Bit, Serial Input, Loop-Powered, 4mA to 20mA DAC

The AD5421 is a complete, loop powered, digital to 4mA-to-20mA converter, designed to meet the needs of smart transmitter manufacturers in the Industrial Control industry.It provides a high precision, fully integrated, low cost solution in a compact TSSOP package.

The AD5421 includes a regulated voltage output that is used to power itself and other devices in the transmitter. This regulator provides a regulated 1.8V to 12V output voltage. The device also contains precision 1.25V and 2.5V references, The AD5421 thus eliminates the need for a discrete regulator and voltage reference.

The AD5421 can be used with standard HART FSK protocol communication circuitry without any degradation in specified performance. The high speed serial interface is capable of operating at 20 Mbps and allows for simple connection to commonly-used microprocessors and microcontrollers via a SPI compatible three-wire interface.

The AD5421 is guaranteed monotonic to 16-bits, offers 0.0015% integral nonlinearity, 0.03% offset error and 0.03 % gain error.

The AD5421 is available in a 28 lead TSSOP package and is specified over the extended industrial temperature range of –40℃ to +105℃.
