APPLICATIONS FLEXIBILITY
ISOLATED VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT CHANNEL
Figure 15 shows the ISC300 configured for a
±
10V input.
With a few external components the ISC300 can accurately
convert a
±
10V input to an isolated
±
10V output with no
external adjustments. The primary function of the output
circuitry is to add gain to convert the
±
5V output of the
ISC300 to
±
10V, and to reduce output impedance. The
addition of a few resistors and capacitors provides an active
low pass filter with a cut off frequency of typically 200Hz.
The filter response is flat to 1dB and rolls off from cut off
at –12dB per octave.
ISOLATED MEASUREMENT BRIDGE CIRCUIT
Figure 16 shows a measurement bridge circuit using the
ISC300. All the input circuitry is powered by the ISC300
isolated supplies. The OPA1013 dual op amp is used to

excite the measurement bridge and the INA102 is used to
amplify the bridge delta voltage. Connecting pins 4 and 7
together, and pins 5 and 6 together on the INA102 sets its
gain to 1000.
ISOLATED 4 TO 20MA RECEIVER
In Figure 17, the ISC300 converts a 4 to 20mA current to an
isolated 0 to 5V output. The 6.25
resistor converts the 4 to
20mA input to 0.025 to 0.125V. The 125

conjunction with the 200

A current source provides an
offset of –0.025V. Fine offset and gain adjustment gives an
accurate 0 to 0.1V input range.
