current to current hardware scaling (ACECATECH APP. 1.4)
This is an online app to design, scale and convert your analog current from one range to another. This is particularly important if you want to match a transmitter which transmits current signal to a receiver with another current range . for instance you may have a transmitter whose range of analog current signal is 0 to 40ma and you may have a PLC or DCS whose analog current signal ranges from 4 to 24ma. the transmitter signal can be scaled to match the PLC/DCS input range.
This online app provide you the appropriate schematic and generates the value of the appropriate resistor for your design. It also gives inference and suggestions at each level of your design.
Ensure to use precision resistor in all your design.
You need to enter your parameters which includes: the appropriate range for the transmitter current as well as the receiver current range and input impedance.
