CONNECTING TO HART_OUT 
The HART_OUT pin is dc biased to 0.75 V and should be 
capacitively coupled to the load. The current consumption 
specifications in Table 2 are based on driving a 5 nF load. If  
the application requires a larger load value, more current is 
required. This value can be calculated from the following 
formula:

AD5700
 is the current drawn by the AD5700/AD5700-1 in 
transmit mode as per specifications (see Table 2). Note that the 
specifications in Table 2 assume a 5 nF C
LOAD
. 
f is the output frequency (1.2 kHz or 2.2 kHz). 
C
LOAD
 is the capacitive load to ground on HART_OUT. 
R
LOAD
 is the resistive load on the loop. 
When driving a purely capacitive load, the load should be in the 
range of 5 nF to 52 nF. See Figure 11 for a typical plot of supply 
current vs. capacitive load. 
Example 
Assume use of an internal reference, and C
LOAD
 = 52 nF. 
I
CC
 + IOI
CC
 = 140 µA maximum (from Table 2 
specification)  
Note that this is incorporating a 5 nF load.  
Therefore, to calculate the load current required to drive the 
extra 47 nF, us e Equation 1. 
Substituting f = 1200 Hz, C
LOAD
 = 47 nF, and R
LOAD
 = 0 Ω into 
the formula results in I
LOAD
 of 31.3 µA. 
If using the crystal oscillator, this adds 60 µA maximum (see 
Table 2 for conditions). 
Thus, the total worst-case current in this example is: 
140 µA + 31.3 µA + 60 µA = 231.3 µA 
If driving a load with a resistive element, it is recommended to 
place a 22 nF capacitor to ground at the HART_OUT pin. The 
load should be coupled with a 2.2 µF series capacitor. For low 
impedance devices, the R
LOAD
 range is typically 230 Ω to 600 Ω.

FSK DEMODULATOR 
Figure 22. AD5700/AD5700-1 Demodulator Waveform  
(Preamble Message 0xFF) 
When 
RTS
 is logic high, the modulator is disabled and the 
demodulator is enabled, that is, the AD5700/AD5700-1 are in 
receive mode. A high on CD indicates a valid carrier is detected. 
The demodulator accepts an FSK signal at the HART_IN pin 
and restores the original modulated signal at the UART 
interface digital data output pin, RXD. The combination of the 
ADC, digital filtering and digital demodulation results in a 
highly accurate output on the RXD pin. The HART bit stream 
follows a standard UART frame with a start bit, 8-bit data, one 
parity, and a stop bit (see Figure 22). 
CONNECTING TO HART_IN OR ADC_IP 
The AD5700/AD5700-1 have two filter configuration options: 
an external filter (HART signal is applied to ACP_IP) and an 
internal filter (HART signal is applied to HART_IN).  
The external filter configuration is shown in Figure 23. In this 
case, the HART signal is applied to the ADC_IP pin through an 
external filter circuit. In safety critical applications, the AD5700/ 
AD5700-1 must be isolated from the high voltage of the loop 
supply. The recommended external band-pass filter includes a 
150 kΩ resistor, which limits current to a sufficiently low level 
to adhere to intrinsic safety requirements. In this case, the input 
has higher transient voltage protection and should, therefore, 
not require additional protection circuitry, even in the most 
demanding of industrial environments. Assuming the use of a 
1% accurate resistor and 10% accurate capacitor components, 
the calculated variation in CD trip voltage levels vs. the ideal is 
±3.5 m V.
