AM422-1

 

Voltage-to-Current Converter IC for 3-Wire Operation

AM422-1 is a compact voltage-to-current converter IC for 3-wire operation with integrated protection functions and voltage source. It converts a single-ended input voltage into a current output signal with adjustable offset and gain. The IC is especially suitable for price sensitive industrial applications with single-ended input signals.
