Product details
Overview
5B34-11-FC from Analog Devices is a single-channel isolated linearized RTD input signal conditioner for 2- and 3-wire platinum, nickel, or copper RTDs. It provides 0 V to +5 V output, ±0.05% span accuracy, 1500 Vrms isolation, and 4 Hz bandwidth with chopper-stabilized amplification. Used in industrial temperature monitoring systems requiring high noise immunity and field-side overvoltage protection.
For engineers reviewing the 5B34-11-FC datasheet, 5B34-11-FC pinout, 5B34-11-FC application, or 5B34-11-FC equivalent, key selection criteria include RTD type support (e.g., 100 Ω Pt α=0.00385), lead resistance cancellation capability, 240 Vrms input terminal withstand rating, and hot-swappable 5B Series compatibility with FM/CSA Class 1 Div 2 certification.
Technical Context
The 5B34-11-FC implements transformer-coupled galvanic isolation with proprietary modulation for linear signal transfer. Its differential chopper-stabilized amplifier delivers ±0.02°C/°C input offset drift and 0.2 µVrms (0.1–10 Hz) input noise, enabling precise low-excitation-current RTD measurement.
It integrates dual matched current sources (0.25 mA for 100 Ω Pt/120 Ω Ni; 1.0 mA for 10 Ω Cu), laser-trimmed feedback linearization, and multi-pole 4 Hz low-pass filtering-ensuring ±0.05% conformity error and 160 dB CMR at 50/60 Hz with 1 kΩ source imbalance.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar RTD signal conditioning applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADAM-4019+ (Advantech) | Modbus RTU output, no transformer isolation; uses internal ADC and microcontroller-based linearization. | Requires host communication stack; lacks intrinsic safety certifications for hazardous areas. | Preferred for distributed Modbus networks where isolation is handled upstream. |
| ISO124 (Texas Instruments) | Analog isolator IC only-requires external RTD excitation, amplification, and linearization circuitry. | Higher BOM count and layout complexity; no integrated lead-compensation or certified approvals. | Suitable for custom designs needing compact isolation without modular form factor. |
Compared with ADAM-4019+ and ISO124, the 5B34-11-FC delivers factory-laser-trimmed linearization, certified hazardous-area operation, and plug-and-play hot-swap capability-reducing system integration time and validation effort for industrial temperature measurement.

FAQ
What RTD types and configurations does the 5B34-11-FC support?
The 5B34-11-FC supports 2-wire and 3-wire configurations for 100 Ω platinum (α = 0.00385), 120 Ω nickel, and 10 Ω copper RTDs. It does not support true 4-wire RTD measurements-that function is provided by the 5B35 model. Lead resistance cancellation is implemented via dual current sources and RETURN terminal routing, ensuring accurate compensation when lead resistances are matched.
Does the 5B34-11-FC require external power supply regulation?
No-the 5B34-11-FC operates directly from a +5 V ±5% supply, drawing 30 mA typical, and is designed for seamless integration with standard 5B Series backplanes like the 5B01 and 5B08. Its power supply sensitivity is specified as ±0.05°C/V for Pt/Ni RTDs and ±0.5°C/V for Cu RTDs, confirming robust performance within nominal rail tolerance without external regulation.
How is isolation achieved in the 5B34-11-FC, and what standards does it meet?
The 5B34-11-FC uses transformer coupling with a proprietary modulation technique-not optocouplers-to achieve 1500 Vrms continuous input-to-output isolation. It meets ANSI/IEEE C37.90.1-1989 transient surge withstand requirements and is certified by Factory Mutual (FM) and CSA for Class 1, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D hazardous locations-confirming non-incendive operation without special enclosures.
Can the 5B34-11-FC be used with existing 5B Series backplanes?
Yes-the 5B34-11-FC shares identical mechanical dimensions (2.275" × 2.375" × 0.595"), pinout, and hot-swap capability with all other 5B Series modules. It can be inserted or removed from any compatible 5B backplane-including those with cold-junction compensation for thermocouples-without disrupting field wiring, power, or adjacent modules.
What is the role of the RETURN pin on the 5B34-11-FC?
The RETURN pin on the 5B34-11-FC serves as the dedicated third-wire compensation path in 3-wire RTD configurations. It routes a second excitation current through the third RTD lead and a laser-trimmed reference resistor, enabling cancellation of equal lead resistances. This ensures that lead resistance errors do not affect the measured RTD value-critical for maintaining ±0.02°C/Ω accuracy in long-sensor installations.
