This reference design implements Class 0.1 split-phase energy measurement using high-performance, multi-channel analog-to-digital converters (ADC). The independent ADC samples the output of current transformers (CT) at 8 kHz to measure the current and voltage of each leg of the AC mains. The reference design can achieve high accuracy across a wide input current range (0.05 – 100 amps) and supports high sampling frequencies necessary for advanced power quality features such as individual harmonic analysis. Using an independent ADC to sample the CT output provides designers greater flexibility in the choice of metrology microcontrollers when compared to integrated SoCs and dedicated application-specific products. The reference design uses a SimpleLink™ ARM Cortex-M4 host microcontroller to calculate energy measurement parameters. This design can also use an ADC sample rate of 32 ksps by only enabling a subset of the full energy measurement parameters.
A fully assembled board has been developed for testing and performance validation only, and is not available for sale.
