3.1.2.4.2 Connecting a 3-Wire RTD
Connect the two measurement leads of a 3-wire RTD to any of the following differential pairs on terminal block
J3: AIN0 and AIN1, AIN2 and AIN3, or AIN6 and AIN7. Connect the remaining common lead to AIN4.
shows an example where the 3-wire RTD is connected to differential pair AIN6 and AIN7. Two IDACs are used in
this example, though this approach is not strictly necessary.

In this configuration, connect external jumper wires between AIN7 (J3:8) to AINCOM (J5:1). An additional jumper
wire is required between AIN6 (J3:7) to AIN3 (J3:4) if two IDACs are used. These jumper wires route the IDAC
currents on AINCOM and AIN3 around the input filtering to prevent voltage drops in the input signal path.
IDAC1 current flows across the RTD and then the combined current of IDAC1 and IDAC2 flows through R1. The
ratiometric reference voltage is generated between AIN4 and AIN5. The IDAC currents are then routed to GND
through resistor R2 when populated.
