Design files

Overview

This reference design implements Class 0.1 three-phase energy measurement using a high-performance, multichannel analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which samples current transformers (CT) at 8 kHz to measure the current and voltage of each leg of the AC mains. This reference design achieves high accuracy across a wide input current range from 0.05 A to 100 A and supports high sampling frequencies necessary for power quality features such as individual harmonic analysis. An ADC sample rate of 32 kSPS can be achieved when using a TI Arm® Cortex®-M0+ host microcontroller for metrology. The necessary software functionality is implemented by porting the TI ADC energy metrology library to MSPM0G3507 and can be compiled with Code Composer Studio™.

Features
  • ANSI C12.20 Class 0.1 active energy accuracy across 2000:1 input range
  • Active and reactive energy and power, RMS current and voltage including power factor with line-frequency calculations
  • Isolated RS-232 and RS-485 with 5 kV RMS isolation
  • 50 mA to 100 A input range
  • Complete tested reference design with hardware files and design guide
