Abstract

Disclosed is a fieldbus transmitter interface for a field device or a control center. The fieldbus transmitter interface comprises a computing unit, a digital gate, an analog transmission filter and a transmitter interface output. The computing unit is connected to the digital gate, and the digital gate is connected to the analog transmission filter, and the analog transmission filter is connected to the transmitter interface output. The computing unit comprises a pulse width modulator and a pulse width modulator clock that is suitable for generating a secondary signal coded by a duty cycle which is varied over time by the pulse width modulator clock. The pulse width modulator superimposes the secondary signal with a carrier signal, so that a digital transmission signal with a frequency of less than 150 kHz is generated. The digital gate and the analog transmit filter convert the digital transmission signal into an analog loop signal.
