FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM APPLICATIONS Industrial signal conditioning Industrial signal isolation Industrial signal filtering Figure 1. 3B40 & 3B41 Functional Block Diagram PRODUCT OVERVIEW The 3B Series of Signal Conditioning I/o Subsystems provide a low-cost, versatile method of transferring analog transducer signals to a data acquisition, monitoring or control system without the inherent noise, non-linearity, drift and extraneous voltages. The modules are designed to directly accept analog signals from Thermocouples, RTD’s, AC and DC Strain Gages, Torque Transducers, Frequency Transducers, LVDTs, millivolt or process current signals. The modules amplify, isolate, linearize and convert the transducer output signals to standardized analog inputs for high-level analog I/O subsystems. The 3B Series Subsystem consists of a 10” relay rack with universal mounting backplane and a family of plug-in (up to 16 per rack) input and output signal conditioning modules. Eight and four channel backplanes are also available. Each backplane incorporates screw terminals for sensor inputs and current outputs and a 26-pin connector for high-level singleended voltage outputs to the user’s equipment. The input modules feature complete signal conditioning circuitry optimized for specific sensors or analog signals and provide two simultaneous high-level analog outputs: 0 to +10V (or +10V) and 4-20 mA (or 0-20 mA). Output modules accept 0 to +10V (or +10V) single-ended signals and provide an isolated 4-20 mA (or 0-20 mA) process signal. All modules feature a universal pin-out and may be readily hot-swapped under full power and interchanged without disrupting field wiring. The Analog Devices 3B Series Signal Conditioning Subsystem is designed to easily handle signal conditioning problems in measurement and control applications. Some typical uses are in microcomputer-based data acquisition systems, programmable controllers, analog recorders, dedicated control systems, and any other applications where monitoring of temperature, pressure, flow and analog signals are required. Since each input module features two simultaneous outputs, the voltage output can be used to provide an input to a microprocessor-based data acquisition or control system while the current output can be used for analog transmission, operator interface, or an analog backup system. Each input module is a single-channel signal conditioner which plugs into a socket on the backplane and accepts its signal from the input screw terminals. All input modules provide input protection, amplification and filtering of the input signal, accuracy of +0.1%, low drift of +1 uV/ oC (low-level input modules), and feature two high-level analog outputs that are compatible with most process instrumentation. The isolated input modules also provide +1500 V peak isolation. The choice of a specific 3B module depends upon the type of input signal. Input modules are available to accept millivolt, volt, process current, thermocouple, RTD, AC and DC strain gage, frequency and LVDT inputs. The voltage output of each module is available from the system I/O connector while the current output is available on the output screw terminals.

Each module performs complete signal conditioning, including isolating (+1500 V peak input-to-output and power) and protecting their computer side outputs from damage and loss of signal integrity, and shielding their inputs from damage from field-side over-voltage faults up to 220 V rms. The current output withstands 130V rms without damage and interfaces user equipment through screw terminals located on the 3B Series backplane. Each plug-in, mix-and-match, hot-swappable module is easily field calibrated via front-panel zero and span adjustments for both voltage and current outputs. 3B Series Custom-Ranging Program – Externallyprogrammable versions, Models 3B40-00 and 3B41-00, enable the user to configure a special input range by using the optional plug-on AC1310 ranging card, which houses user-supplied resistors to determine zero and span. To facilitate selecting resistors, a Windows program, 3B-CUSTOM, calculates resistor values based on the user-desired input/output ranges. A chopper-stabilized low-drift (+1uV/oC) input amplifier . assures long-term stability. At the amplifier input, a stable, zeroscale input voltage is subtracted from the input signal to set the zero-scale value. Zero suppression can exceed 100% of the input range. This is ideal for expanded-scale applications requiring high-resolution measurement of a selected portion of an input signal. For user convenience, the zero and span can be factory configured to meet custom range needs (Models 3B40CUSTOM and 3B41-CUSTOM) or can be externally programmed (Models 3B40-00 and 3B41-00) via user supplied resistors inserted in the optional AC1310 plug-on ranging card. Internal low-pass filtering with a 10 kHz cutoff (-3dB) is determined by a two-pole Butterworth filter. Signal isolation is accomplished by transformer coupling with a proprietary modulation technique for linear, stable and reliable performance. The differential input circuit on the field side is fully floating, eliminating the need for any input grounding. A demodulator on the computer side of the signal transformer recovers the original signal, which is then filtered and buffered to provide a low-noise, low-impedance output voltage: this output also drives a voltage-to-current (V/I) converter to provide a simultaneous current output for interfacing versatility. .
