Channel 2 Sampling
In Channel 2 waveform sampling mode (MODE[14:13] =
1,1 and WSMP = 1) the ADC output code scaling for
Channel 2 is not the same as Channel 1. The LSB weight of
the Channel 2 samples is 16 times that of the Channel 1.
Channel 2 waveform sample is a 16-bit word and sign
extended to 24 bits. The absolute full-scale value of the ADC
swings between 4000h (16,384 Decimal) and C000h (-
16,384 Decimal) see ADC Channel 1. For normal operation,
the differential voltage signal between V2P and V2N should
not exceed 0.5V. The outputs from the ADC should be within
63% of the maximum, i.e. swings between 2852h (10,322
Decimal) and D7AEh (-10,322 Decimal). However, before
being passed to the Waveform register, the ADC output is
passed through a single pole, low pass filter with a cutoff
frequency of 140Hz. The plots in Figure 24 shows the
magnitude and phase response of this filter.

The LPF1 has the effect of attenuating the signal. For
example if the line frequency is 60Hz, then the signal at the
output of LPF1 will be attenuated by about 8%.

Note LPF1 does not affect the power calculation. The signal
processing chain in Channel 2 is illustrated in Figure 25.
Unlike Channel 1, Channel 2 has only one analog input range
(1V differential). However like Channel 1, Channel 2 does
have a PGA with gain selections of 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16. For
energy measurement, the output of the ADC is passed
directly to the multiplier and is not filtered. A HPF is not
required to remove any DC offset since it is only required to
remove the offset from one channel to eliminate errors due to
offsets in the power calculation. When in waveform sample
mode, one of four output sample rates can be chosen by using
bits 11 and 12 of the Mode register. The available output
sample rates are 27.9kSPS, 14kSPS, 7kSPS or 3.5kSPS
see Mode Register. The interrupt request output IRQ signals a
sample availability by going active low. The timing is the
same as that for Channel 1 and is shown in Figure 22.

ADE7753 calculates simultaneously the RMS values for
Channel 1 and Channel 2 in different register. Figure 23
shows the detail of the signal processing chain for the RMS
calculation on channel 1. The channel 1 RMS value is
processed from the samples used in the channel 1 waveform
sampling mode. The channel 1 RMS value is stored in an
unsigned 24-bit register (IRMS). One LSB of the channel 1
RMS register is equivalent to one LSB of a channel 1
waveform sample. The update rate of the channel 1 RMS
measurement is CLKIN/4.

Figure 23 - Channel 1 RMS signal processing
With the specified full scale analog input signal of 0.5V, the
ADC will produce an output code which is approximately
63% of its full-scale value (i.e. ±2,642,412d) - see Channel 1
ADC. The equivalent RMS values of a full-scale AC signal is
1,868,467d (1C82B3h).

Channel 1 RMS offset compensationChannel 1 RMS offset compensation
Channel 1 RMS offset compensation
The ADE7753 incorporates a channel 1 RMS offset compen-
sation register (IRMSOS). This is 12-bit signed registers
which can be used to remove offset in the channel 1 RMS
calculation. An offset may exist in the RMS calculation due
to input noises that are integrated in the DC component of
V
2
(t). The offset calibration will allow the content of the
IRMS register to be maintained at zero when no input is
present on channel 1.
1 LSB of the Channel 1 RMS offset are equivalent to 32,768
LSB of the square of the Channel 1 RMS register. Assuming
that the maximum value from the Channel 1 RMS calcula-
tion is 1,868,467d with full scale AC inputs, then 1 LSB of
the channel 1 RMS offset represents 0.46% of measurement
error at -60dB down of full scale.
