Functional Description
The NCN5192 is a single-chip modem for use in Highway
Addressable Remote Transducer (HART) field instruments
and masters. The modem IC contains a transmit data
modulator with signal shaper, carrier detect circuitry, an
analog receiver, demodulator circuitry and an oscillator, as
shown in the block diagram in Figure 1.
The modulator accepts digital data at its digital input TxD
and generates a trapezoidal shaped FSK modulated signal at
the analog output TxA. A digital “1” or mark is represented
with a frequency of 1200 Hz. A digital “0” or space is
represented with a frequency of 2200 Hz. The used bit rate
is 1200 baud.
The demodulator receives the FSK signal at its analog
input, filters it with a band-pass filter and generates 2 digital
signals: RxD: Received Data and CD: Carrier Detect. At the
digital output RxD the original modulated signal is received.
CD outputs the Carrier Detect signal. It goes logic high if the
received signal is above 100 mVpp during 4 consecutive
carrier periods.
The oscillator provides the modem with a stable time base
using either a simple external resonator or an external clock
source.

Figure 5. Modulation Timing
The Numeric Controlled Oscillator (NCO) works in a
phase continuous mode preventing abrupt phase shifts when
switching between mark and space frequency. The control
signal “Request To Send” (RTSB) enables the NCO. When
RTSB is logic low the modulator is active and NCN5192 is
in transmit mode. When RTSB is logic high the modulator
is disabled and NCN5192 is in receive mode.
The digital outputs of the NCO are shaped in the Wave
Shaper block to a trapezoidal signal. This circuit controls the
rising and falling edge to be inside the standard HART
waveshape limits. Figure 6 shows the transmit-signal forms
captured at TxA for mark and space frequency. The slew

Receive Filter and Comparator
The received FSK signal first is filtered using a band-pass
filter build around the low noise receiver operational
amplifier “Rx HP filter”. This filter blocks interferences
outside the HART signal band.

Figure 8. Demodulator Receive Filter and Signal
Comparator
The filter output is fed into the Rx comparator. The
threshold value equals the analog ground making the
comparator to toggle on every zero crossing of the filtered
FSK signal. The maximum demodulator jitter is 12 % of one
bit given the input frequencies are within the HART
specifications, a clock frequency of 460.8 kHz (±1.0 %) and
zero input (RxA) asymmetry.
Carrier Detect Circuitry
Low HART input signal levels increases the risk for the
generation of bit errors. Therefore the minimum signal
amplitude is set to 80120 mVpp. If the received signal is
below this level the demodulator is disabled.
This level detection is done in the Carrier Detector. The
output of the demodulator is qualified with the carrier detect
signal (CD), therefore, only RxA signals large enough to be
detected (100 mV
p-p
typically) by the carrier detect circuit
produce received serial data at RxD.

RxD_ENH
The carrier detect comparator shown in Figure 9 generates
logic low output if the RxAFI voltage is below CDREF. The
comparator output is fed into a carrier detect block. The
carrier detect block drives the carrier detect output pin CD
high if RTSB is high and four consecutive pulses out of the
comparator have arrived. CD stays high as long as RTSB is
high and the next comparator pulse is received in less than
2.5 ms. Once CD goes inactive, it takes four consecutive
pulses out of the comparator to assert CD again. Four
consecutive pulses amount to 3.33 ms when the received
signal is 1200 Hz and to 1.82 ms when the received signal
is 2200 HZ. The difference between RxD and RxD_ENH is
evident when CD is low: RxD is then also low, while
RxD_ENH is then high. When CD is high, RxD and
RxD_ENH have the same output.
Miscellaneous Analog Circuitry
Voltage References
The NCN5192 requires two voltage references, AREF
and CDREF. AREF sets the DC operating point of the
internal operational amplifiers and is the reference for the
Rx comparator. If NCN5192 operates at V
DD
= 3.3 V the ON
Semiconductor LM285D 1.235 V reference is
recommended.
The level at which CD (Carrier Detect) becomes active is
determined by the DC voltage difference (CDREF - AREF).
Selecting a voltage difference of 80 mV will set the carrier
detect to a nominal 100 mV
p-p

Bias Current Resistor
The NCN5192 requires a bias current resistor R
BIAS
to be
connected between CBIAS and V
SS
. The bias current
controls the operating parameters of the internal operational
amplifiers and comparators and should be set to 2.5 mA.

by an external clock or a resonator or crystal connected to the
internal oscillator.
