4-20mA R Click™ is an add-on board in mikroBUS™ form factor which serves as a receiver in a 4-20mA current loop standard. It features INA196 current shunt monitor, MCP3201 12-bit ADC as well as TPS61041 DC/DC boost converter. It receives output current (4-20mA) from transmitter and converts it into a voltage (0.4-2V). This voltage is converted into a 12-bit data signal in the MCP3201 A/D converter and sent via mikroBUS™ SPI lines. Together with 4-20mA T Click™ this board forms a complete 4-to-20mA current loop standard. It is designed to use either 3.3V or 5V power supply.
Applications:
