ABSTRACT:
A field mounted transmitter for use in a two-wire process control loop includes a sensor, measurement circuitry and a power supply. The sensor senses a process variable of a process which is transmitted over the control loop by the measurement circuitry. The power supply is powered by a current flowing through the control loop and powers the measurement circuitry. The power supply includes an inductive element coupled to the measurement circuitry and a switch which selectively couples the inductive element to the control loop.
