Variable liftoff voltage process field device

A field transmitter (250) includes field device circuitry (216) configured to measure or control a process variable. A first process control loop terminal (202) is configured to couple to a two-wire process control loop (206) which carries a loop current Iloop. A second process control loop terminal...

More Information
Summary:A field transmitter (250) includes field device circuitry (216) configured to measure or control a process variable. A first process control loop terminal (202) is configured to couple to a two-wire process control loop (206) which carries a loop current Iloop. A second process control loop terminal (204) configured to couple to the two-wire process control loop (206). A switching regulator (212)has an input and an output. The output is coupled to the transmitter circuitry (216) and arranged to provide power to the transmitter circuitry (216). A variable voltage source (232) having an input electrically coupled to the first process control loop terminal (202), and a voltage output coupled to the input of the switching regulator (212) and a control input. The voltage output is a function of the control input.
