Comparison between Conventional (4-20ma) connection, Foundation-Fieldbus, and HART?

What is a foundation field bus? A field bus can be described as the connection between industrial devices. The major purpose of a field bus is to replace the point-to-point link between the field devices and control system, instead of that Fieldbus would provide a digital link. In a field bus, the transfer of information …
