Abstract
The present disclosure includes an electronic circuit for use in process automation for transferring electrical energy from a terminal element to a sensor over an inductively coupled interface. The sensor measures the power it receives over the inductive interface and compares this value to a target power value. The difference between the actual and target values is communicated back to the terminal element. The terminal element adjusts its power output to the sensor to minimize this difference. The disclosure includes the use of the electronic circuit and a sensor arrangement comprising the electronic circuit, as well as a method for transmitting power.
