MCP3919
3V Three-Channel Analog Front End
Features:
Description:
• Three Synchronous Sampling 24-bit Resolution
Delta-Sigma A/D Converters
The MCP3919 is a 3V three-channel Analog Front End
(AFE) containing three synchronous sampling delta-
sigma Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADC), three
PGAs, phase delay compensation block, low-drift
internal voltage reference, digital offset and gain error
calibration registers and high-speed 20 MHz
SPI-compatible serial interface.
• 93.5 dB SINAD, -107 dBc Total Harmonic
Distortion (THD) (up to 35th Harmonic), 112 dBFS
SFDR for Each Channel
• Enables 0.1% Typical Active Power Measurement
Error over a 10,000:1 Dynamic Range
The MCP3919 ADCs are fully configurable with
features such as: 16/24-bit resolution, Oversampling
Ratio (OSR) from 32 to 4096, gain from 1x to 32x,
independent Shutdown and Reset, dithering and auto-
zeroing. The communication is largely simplified with 8-
bit commands including various continuous read/write
modes and 16/24/32-bit data formats that can be
accessed by the Direct Memory Access (DMA) of an
8/16- or 32-bit MCU and with the separate data ready
pin that can directly be connected to an Interrupt
Request (IRQ) input of an MCU.
• Advanced Security Features:
- 16-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC)
Checksum on All Communications for Secure
Data Transfers
- 16-bit CRC Checksum and Interrupt Alert for
Register Map Configuration
- Register Map Lock with 8-bit Secure Key
• 2.7V-3.6V AVDD, DVDD
• Programmable Data Rate up to 125 ksps:
- 4 MHz Maximum Sampling Frequency
- 16 MHz Maximum Master Clock
The MCP3919 includes advanced security features to
secure the communications and the configuration
settings such as a CRC-16 checksum on both serial
data outputs and static register map configuration. It
also includes a register-map lock through an 8-bit
secure key to stop unwanted write commands from
processing.
• Oversampling Ratio up to 4096
• Ultra-Low Power Shutdown Mode with < 10 µA
• -122 dB Crosstalk between Channels
• Low Drift 1.2V Internal Voltage Reference:
9 ppm/°C
• Differential Voltage Reference Input Pins
The MCP3919 is capable of interfacing with a variety of
voltage and current sensors, including shunts, current
transformers, Rogowski coils and Hall-effect sensors.
• High Gain PGA on Each Channel (up to 32 V/V)
• Phase Delay Compensation with 1 µs Time
Resolution
Applications:
• Separate Data Ready Pin for Easy
Synchronization
• Polyphase Energy Meters
• Energy Metering and Power Measurement
• Automotive
• Individual 24-bit Digital Offset and Gain Error
Correction for Each Channel
• High-Speed 20 MHz SPI Interface with Mode 0,0
and 1,1 Compatibility
• Portable Instrumentation
• Medical and Power Monitoring
• Audio/Voice Recognition
• Continuous Read/Write Modes for Minimum
Communication Time with Dedicated 16/32-bit
Modes

performance.
6: Outside of this range, ADC accuracy is not specified. An extended input range of +/-2V can be applied continuously to
the part with no damage.
7: For proper operation and for optimizing ADC accuracy, AMCLK should be limited to the maximum frequency defined in
Table 5-2, as a function of the BOOST and PGA setting chosen. MCLK can take larger values as long as the prescaler
settings (PRE<1:0>) limit AMCLK = MCLK/PRESCALE in the defined range in Table 5-2.

If the voltage reference is only used as an internal
VREF, adding bypass capacitance on REFIN+/OUT is
not necessary for keeping ADC accuracy, but a minimal
0.1 µF ceramic capacitance can be connected to avoid
EMI/EMC susceptibility issues due to the antenna
created by the REFIN+/OUT pin if left floating.

Analog Power Supply (AV
)
DD
AVDD is the power supply voltage for the analog
circuitry within the MCP3919. It is distributed on several
pins (pins 11 and 25 in the QFN-28 package, one pin
only in the SSOP-28 package). For optimal
performance, connect these pins together using a star
connection and connect the appropriate bypass
capacitors (typically a 10 µF in parallel with a 0.1 µF
ceramic). AVDD should be maintained between 2.7V
and 3.6V for specified operation.
3.4
Inverting Reference Input (REFIN-)
This pin is the inverting side of the differential voltage
reference input for all ADCs. When using an external
differential voltage reference it should be connected to
its VREF- pin. When using an external single-ended
voltage reference, or when VREFEXT = 0(default) and
using the internal voltage reference, the pin should be
To ensure proper functionality of the device, at least
one of these pins must be properly connected. To
ensure optimal performance of the device all the pins
must be properly connected. If any of these pins are left
floating, the accuracy and noise specifications are not
ensured.

.
3.5
Analog Ground (A
)
GND
AGND is the ground reference voltage for the analog
circuitry within the MCP3919. It is distributed on several
pins (pins 10 and 26 in the QFN-28 package, one pin
only in the SSOP-28 package). For optimal
performance, it is recommended to connect these pins
together using a star connection and to connect it to the
same ground node voltage as DGND, again preferably
with a star connection.
3.2
ADC Differential Analog Inputs
(CHn+/CHn-)
The CHn+/- pins (n comprised between 0 and 2) are
the three fully-differential analog voltage inputs for the
delta-sigma ADCs.
The linear and specified region of the channels are
dependent on the PGA gain. This region corresponds
to a differential voltage range of ±600 mV/GAIN with
VREF = 1.2V.
At least one of these pins need to be properly
connected to ensure proper functionality of the device.
All of these pins need to be properly connected to
ensure optimal performance of the device. If any of
these pins are left floating, the accuracy and noise
specifications are not ensured. If an analog ground
plane is available it is recommended that these pins be
tied to this plane of the PCB. This plane should also
reference all other analog circuitry in the system.
The maximum absolute voltage, with respect to AGND
,
for each CHn+/- input pin is ±1V with no distortion and
±2V with no breaking after continuous voltage. This
maximum absolute voltage is not proportional to the
VREF voltage.

DGND is the ground reference voltage for the digital
circuitry within the MCP3919. It is distributed on several
pins (pins 13, 15 and 23 in the QFN package, two pins
only in the SSOP-28 package). For optimal
performance, connect these pins together using a star
connection and connect it to the same ground node
This pin is the noninverting side of the differential
voltage reference input for all ADCs or the internal
voltage reference output.
When VREFEXT = 1, an external voltage reference
source can be used and the internal voltage reference
is disabled. When using an external differential voltage
reference it should be connected to its VREF+ pin.
When using an external single-ended reference it
should be connected to this pin.

is available it is recommended that these pins be tied to

plane should also reference all other digital circuitry in
the system.
When VREFEXT = 0 the internal voltage reference is
enabled and connected to this pin through a switch.
This voltage reference has minimal drive capability and
thus needs proper buffering and bypass capacitances
(a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor is sufficient in most cases)
if used as a voltage source.

MCP3919
In 2-Wire Interface mode, this is the GAIN1 logic select
input pin (See Section 7.0 “2-Wire Serial Interface
Description” for the logic input table for GAIN0 and
GAIN1). The pin state is latched when the MODE
changes to 2-Wire Interface mode, and is relatched at
each watchdog timer reset.
3.7
Data Ready Output/GAIN1 Logic
Input (DR/GAIN1)
The data ready pin indicates if a new conversion result
is ready to be read. The default state of this pin is logic
high when DR_HIZ = 1 and is high-impedance when
DR_HIZ = 0 (default). After each conversion is
finished, a logic low pulse will take place on the data
ready pin to indicate the conversion result is ready as
an interrupt. This pulse is synchronous with the master
clock and has a defined and constant width.
Note:
When CLKEXT = 1, the crystal oscillator
is disabled. OSC1 becomes the master
clock input CLKI, a direct path for an
external clock source. One example
would be a clock source generated by an
MCU.
The data ready pin is independent of the SPI interface
and acts like an interrupt output. The data ready pin
state is not latched, and the pulse width (and period)
are both determined by the MCLK frequency,
over-sampling rate, and internal clock prescale
settings. The data ready pulse width is equal to half a
DMCLK period and the frequency of the pulses is equal
to DRCLK (see Figure 1-3).
3.9
Crystal Oscillator Output/Interface
MODE Logic Input (OSC2/MODE)
When CLKEXT = 0, a resonant crystal or clock source
with a similar sinusoidal waveform must be placed
across the OSC1 and OSC2 pins to ensure proper
operation. Appropriate load capacitance should be
connected to these pins for proper operation.
In the 2-Wire Interface mode, this is the GAIN1 logic
select input pin (See Section 7.0 “2-Wire Serial Inter-
face Description” for the logic input table for GAIN0
and GAIN1). The pin state is latched when the MODE
changes to 2-Wire Interface mode and is relatched at
each watchdog timer reset.
When CLKEXT = 1(default condition at POR), this pin
is the MODE selection pin for the digital interface.
When MODE is logic low, the SPI interface is selected
(see Section 6.0 “SPI Serial Interface Description”);
when MODE is logic high, the 2-Wire interface (see
Section 7.0 “2-Wire Serial Interface Description”) is
selected. The MODE input is latched after a POR, a
Master Reset and/or a watchdog timer reset.
Note:
This pin should not be left floating when
the DR_HIZ bit is low; a 100 k pull-up
resistor
connected
to
DVDD
is
recommended.
3.10 Chip Select/Boost Logic Input
(CS/BOOST)
3.8
Crystal Oscillator/Master Clock
Input/GAIN0 Logic Input Pin
(OSC1/CLKI/GAIN0)
This pin is the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) chip
select that enables serial communication. When this
pin is logic high, no communication can take place. A
chip select falling edge initiates serial communication,
OSC1/CLKI and OSC2 provide the master clock for the
device. When CLKEXT = 0, a resonant crystal or clock
source with a similar sinusoidal waveform must be
placed across the OSC1 and OSC2 pins to ensure
proper operation.
and
a chip select rising edge terminates the
communication. No communication can take place
even when CS is logic low, if RESET is also logic low.
The typical clock frequency specified is 4 MHz. For
proper operation, and for optimizing ADC accuracy,
AMCLK should be limited to the maximum frequency
defined in Table 5-2 for the function of the BOOST and
PGA setting chosen. MCLK can take larger values as
long as the prescaler settings (PRE<1:0>) limit
AMCLK = MCLK/PRESCALE in the defined range in
Table 5-2. Appropriate load capacitance should be
connected to these pins for proper operation.
This input is Schmitt-triggered.
In 2-Wire Interface mode, this is the BOOST logic
select input pin (see Section 7.0 “2-Wire Serial Inter-
face Description” for the logic input table for BOOST).
The pin state is latched when the MODE changes to 2-
Wire Interface mode, and is relatched at each watch-
dog timer reset.

MCP3919
3.11 Serial Data Clock/Master Clock
Input (SCK/MCLK)
3.14 Master Reset/OSR0 Logic Input
(RESET/OSR0)
This is the serial clock pin for SPI communication. Data
is clocked into the device on the rising edge of SCK.
Data is clocked out of the device on the falling edge of
SCK.
In SPI mode, this pin is active low and places the entire
chip in a Reset state when active.
When RESET is logic low, all registers are reset to their
default value, no communication can take place and no
clock is distributed inside the part, except in the input
structure if MCLK is applied (if MCLK is idle, then no
clock is distributed). This state is equivalent to a Power-
On Reset (POR) state.
The MCP3919 SPI interface is compatible with SPI 0,0
and 1,1 modes. SPI modes can be changed during a
CS high time.
The maximum clock speed specified is 20 MHz. SCK
and MCLK are two different and asynchronous clocks;
SCK is only required when a communication happens,
while MCLK is continuously required when the part is
converting analog inputs.
Since the default state of the ADCs is on, the analog
power consumption when RESET is logic low is
equivalent to when RESET is logic high. Only the digital
power consumption is largely reduced because this
current consumption is essentially dynamic and is
reduced drastically when there is no clock running.
This input is Schmitt-triggered.
In the 2-Wire Interface mode, this pin defines the mas-
ter clock of the device (MCLK) and simultaneously the
serial clock (SCK) for the interface. In this mode, the
clock has to be provided continuously to ensure proper
operation. See Section 7.0 “2-Wire Serial Interface
Description” for more information and timing dia-
grams of the 2-wire interface protocol.
All the analog biases are enabled during a Reset, so
that the part is fully operational just after a RESET
rising edge, if MCLK is applied when RESET is logic
low. If MCLK is not applied, there is a time after a hard
reset when the conversion may not accurately
correspond to the startup of the input structure.
This input is Schmitt-triggered.
3.12 Serial Data Output (SDO)
In 2-Wire Interface mode, this is the OSR0 logic select
pin (see Section 7.0 “2-Wire Serial Interface
Description” for the logic input table for OSR0 and
OSR1). The pin state is latched when the mode
changes to 2-Wire Interface mode, and is relatched at
each watchdog timer reset.
This is the SPI data output pin. Data is clocked out of
the device on the falling edge of SCK.
This pin remains in a high-impedance state during the
command byte. It also stays high-impedance during the
entire communication for write commands and when
the CS pin is logic high, or when the RESET pin is logic
low. This pin is active only when a read command is
processed. The interface is half-duplex (inputs and
outputs do not happen at the same time).
3.15 Digital Power Supply (DV
)
DD
DVDD is the power supply voltage for the digital circuitry
within the MCP3919. It is distributed on several pins
(pins 12 and 24 in the QFN package, one pin only in the
SSOP-28 package). For optimal performance, it is
recommended to connect these pins together using a
star connection and to connect appropriate bypass
capacitors (typically a 10 µF in parallel with a 0.1 µF
ceramic). DVDD should be maintained between 2.7V
and 3.6V for specified operation.
3.13 Serial Data/OSR1 Logic Input
(SDI/OSR1)
This is the SPI data input pin. Data is clocked into the
device on the rising edge of SCK. When CS is logic low,
this pin is used to communicate with a series of 8-bit
commands. The interface is half-duplex (inputs and
outputs do not happen at the same time).
At least one of these pins need to be properly con-
nected to ensure proper functionality of the device. All
of these pins need to be properly connected to ensure
optimal performance of the device. If any of these pins
are left floating, the accuracy and noise specifications
are not ensured.
Each communication starts with a chip select falling
edge followed by an 8-bit command word, entered
through the SDI pin. Each command is either a Read or
a Write command. Toggling SDI after a Read or Write
command or when CS is logic high has no effect.
3.16 Exposed Thermal Pad
This input is Schmitt-triggered.
This pin must be connected to AGND or left floating for
proper operation. Connecting it to AGND is preferable
for lowest noise performance and best thermal
behavior.
In 2-Wire Interface mode, this is the OSR1 logic select
input pin (see Section 7.0 “2-Wire Serial Interface
Description” for the logic input table for OSR0 and
OSR1). The pin state is latched when the MODE
changes to 2-Wire Interface mode, and is relatched at
each watchdog timer reset.

This is the clock frequency that is present on the digital
portion of the device after prescaling and division by
four (Equation 4-2). This is also the sampling
frequency, which is the rate at which the modulator
outputs are refreshed. Each period of this clock
corresponds to one sample and one modulator output.
See Figure 4-1.
This is the output data rate, i.e., the rate at which the
ADCs output new data. Each new data is signaled by a
data ready pulse on the DR pin.
This data rate is depending on the OSR and the
prescaler with the formula in Equation 4-3.

OSR – Oversampling Ratio
4.8
Integral Nonlinearity Error
This is the ratio of the sampling frequency to the output
data rate; OSR = DMCLK/DRCLK. The default
OSR<2:0> is 256, or with MCLK = 4 MHz,
PRESCALE = 1, AMCLK = 4 MHz, fS = 1 MHz and
fD = 3.90625 ksps. The OSR<2:0> bits in Table 4-3 in
the CONFIG0 register are used to change the
oversampling ratio (OSR).
Integral nonlinearity error is the maximum deviation of
an ADC transition point from the corresponding point of
an ideal transfer function, with the offset and gain
errors removed, or with the end points equal to zero.
It is the maximum remaining error after calibration of
offset and gain errors for a DC input signal.

Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
TABLE 4-3:
MCP3919 OVERSAMPLING
RATIO SETTINGS
For the MCP3919 ADCs, the signal-to-noise ratio is a
ratio of the output fundamental signal power to the
noise power (not including the harmonics of the signal)
when the input is a sine wave at a predetermined
frequency (see Equation 4-4). It is measured in dB.
Usually, only the maximum signal-to-noise ratio is
specified. The SNR figure depends mainly on the OSR
and DITHER settings of the device.

This is the error induced by the ADC when the inputs

incorporates both PGA and ADC offset contributions.
This error varies with PGA and OSR settings. The
offset is different on each channel and varies from chip-
to-chip. The offset is specified in µV. The offset error
can be digitally compensated independently on each
channel through the OFFCAL_CHn registers with a
24-bit calibration word.

Multi-bit quantizers help to lower the quantization error
(the error fed back in the loop can be very large with
1-bit quantizers) without changing the order of the
modulator or the OSR, which leads to better SNR
figures. However, typically the linearity of such
architectures is more difficult to achieve since the DAC
linearity is as difficult to attain and its linearity limits the
THD of such ADCs.
4.11 Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
The total harmonic distortion is the ratio of the output
harmonic’s power to the fundamental signal power for
a sine wave input and is defined in Equation 4-7.

The quantizer present in each ADC channel in the
MCP3919 is
a Flash ADC composed of four
comparators arranged with equally spaced thresholds
and a thermometer coding. The MCP3919 also
includes proprietary five-level DAC architecture that is
inherently linear for improved THD figures.
The THD calculation includes the first 35 harmonics for
the MCP3919 specifications. The THD is usually
measured only with respect to the ten first harmonics,
which leads artificially to better figures. THD is
sometimes expressed in %. Equation 4-8 converts the
THD in %.
4.14 Idle Tones
A delta-sigma converter is an integrating converter. It
also has a finite quantization step (LSB) that can be
detected by its quantizer. A DC input voltage that is
below the quantization step should only provide an
all zeros result, since the input is not large enough to
be detected. As an integrating device, any delta-sigma
ADC will show idle tones. This means that the output
will have spurs in the frequency content that depend on
the ratio between quantization step voltage and the
input voltage. These spurs are the result of the
integrated sub-quantization step inputs that will
eventually cross the quantization steps after a long
enough integration. This will induce an AC frequency at
the output of the ADC, and can be shown in the ADC
output spectrum.
EQUATION 4-8:
THDdB
THD% = 100 10------------------------

This specification depends mainly on the DITHER
setting.
4.12 Spurious-Free Dynamic Range
(SFDR)
SFDR is the ratio between the output power of the
fundamental and the highest spur in the frequency
spectrum (see Equation 4-9). The spur frequency is not
necessarily a harmonic of the fundamental even
though it is usually the case. This figure represents the
dynamic range of the ADC when a full-scale signal is
used at the input. This specification depends mainly on
the DITHER setting.
These idle tones are residues that are inherent to the
quantization process and the fact that the converter is
integrating at all times without being reset. They are
residues of the finite resolution of the conversion
process. They are very difficult to attenuate and they
are heavily signal dependent. They can degrade the
SFDR and THD of the converter, even for DC inputs.
They can be localized in the baseband of the converter
and are thus difficult to filter from the actual input signal.
EQUATION 4-9:
FundamentalPower
HighestSpurPower
SFDRdB = 10log ----------------------------------------------------
For power metering applications, idle tones can be very
disturbing because energy can be detected even at the
50 or 60 Hz frequency, depending on the DC offset of
the ADCs, while no power is really present at the
inputs. The only practical way to suppress or attenuate
the idle tones phenomenon is to apply dithering to the
ADC. The amplitudes of the idle tones are a function of
the order of the modulator, the OSR and the number of
levels in the quantizer of the modulator. A higher order,
a higher OSR or a higher number of levels for the
quantizer will attenuate the amplitudes of the idle
tones.
4.13 MCP3919 Delta-Sigma
Architecture
The MCP3919 incorporates three delta-sigma ADCs
with a multi-bit architecture. A delta-sigma ADC is an
oversampling converter that incorporates a built-in
modulator, which digitizes the quantity of charges
integrated by the modulator loop (see Figure 5-1). The
quantizer is the block that is performing the
analog-to-digital conversion. The quantizer is typically
1-bit, or a simple comparator, which helps maintain the
linearity performance of the ADC (the DAC structure is,
in this case, inherently linear).

MCP3919
The crosstalk for Channel 0 is then calculated with the
formula in Equation 4-10.
4.15 Dithering
In order to suppress or attenuate the idle tones present
in any delta-sigma ADCs, dithering can be applied to
the ADC. Dithering is the process of adding an error to
the ADC feedback loop in order to “decorrelate” the
outputs and “break” the idle tone’s behavior. Usually a
random or pseudo-random generator adds an analog
or digital error to the feedback loop of the delta-sigma
ADC in order to ensure that no tonal behavior can
happen at its outputs. This error is filtered by the feed-
back loop and typically has a zero average value, so
that the converter static transfer function is not dis-
turbed by the dithering process. However, the dithering
process slightly increases the noise floor (it adds noise
to the part) while reducing its tonal behavior and thus
improving SFDR and THD. The dithering process
scrambles the idle tones into baseband white noise and
ensures that dynamic specs (SNR, SINAD, THD,
SFDR) are less signal dependent. The MCP3919 incor-
porates a proprietary dithering algorithm on all ADCs in
order to remove idle tones and improve THD, which is
crucial for power metering applications.
EQUATION 4-10:

CTalkdB = 10log --------------------------------
The crosstalk depends slightly on the position of the
channels in the MCP3919 device. This dependency is
shown in the Figure 2-32, where the inner channels
show more crosstalk than the outer channels since
they are located closer to the perturbation sources. The
outer channels have the preferred locations to
minimize crosstalk.
4.17 PSRR
This is the ratio between a change in the power supply
voltage and the ADC output codes. It measures the
influence of the power supply voltage on the ADC
outputs.
The PSRR specification can be DC (the power supply
is taking multiple DC values) or AC (the power supply
is a sine wave at a certain frequency with a certain
common mode). In AC, the amplitude of the sine wave
represents the change in the power supply. It is defined
in Equation 4-11.
4.16 Crosstalk
Crosstalk is defined as the perturbation caused on one
ADC channel by all the other ADC channels present in
the chip. It is a measurement of the isolation between
each channel present in the chip.
EQUATION 4-11:
This measurement is a two-step procedure:

perturbation sine wave signal on all the other
ADCs at a certain predefined frequency.
Crosstalk is the ratio between the output power of the
ADC when the perturbation is and is not present,
divided by the power of the perturbation signal. A lower
crosstalk value implies more independence and
isolation between the channels.
In the MCP3919 specification for DC PSRR, AVDD var-
ies from 2.7V to 3.6V and for AC PSRR, a 50/60 Hz
sine wave is chosen centered around 3.0V with a
maximum 300 mV amplitude. The PSRR specification
is measured with AVDD = DVDD
.
The measurement of this signal is performed under the
default conditions of MCLK = 4 MHz:

The CMRR specification can be DC (the
common-mode input voltage is taking multiple DC
values) or AC (the common-mode input voltage is a
sine wave at a certain frequency with a certain common
mode). In AC, the amplitude of the sine wave
represents the change in the power supply. It is defined
in Equation 4-12.

EQUATION 4-12:
4.20 Hard Reset Mode (RESET = 0)
This mode is only available during a POR or when the
RESET pin is pulled logic low. The RESET pin logic-low
state places the device in Hard Reset mode. In this
mode, all internal registers are reset to their default
state.
VOUT
CMRRdB = 20log -----------------
VCM
The DC biases for the analog blocks are still active, i.e.,
the MCP3919 is ready to convert. However, this pin
clears all conversion data in the ADCs. The
comparators’ outputs of all ADCs are forced to their
Reset state (0011). The SINC filters are all reset, as
well as their double output buffers. The Hard Reset
mode requires a minimum pulse low time (see
Section 1.0 “Electrical Characteristics”). During a
Hard Reset, no communication with the part is
possible. The digital interface is maintained in a Reset
state.
Where: VCM = (CHn+ + CHn-)/2 is the common-mode
input voltage, and VOUT is the equivalent input voltage
that the output code translates to with the ADC transfer
function.
In the MCP3919 specification, VCM varies from -1V to
+1V.
4.19 ADC Reset Mode
ADC Reset mode (also called Soft Reset mode) can
only be entered through setting the RESET<2:0> bits
high in the Configuration register. This mode is defined
as the condition where the converters are active, but
their output is forced to 0.
During this state, the clock MCLK can be applied to the
part in order to properly bias the input structures of all
channels. If not applied, large analog input leakage
currents can be observed for highly negative input
signals and after removing the Hard Reset state, a
certain start-up time is necessary to bias the input
structure properly. During this delay the ADC
conversions can be inaccurate.
The Flash ADC output of the corresponding channel
will be reset to its default value (0011) in the MOD
register.
The ADCs can immediately output meaningful codes
after leaving Reset mode (and after the sinc filter
settling time). This mode is both entered and exited
through bit settings in the Configuration register.
4.21 ADC Shutdown Mode
ADC Shutdown mode is defined as a state where the
converters and their biases are off, consuming only
leakage current. When one of the SHUTDOWN<2:0>
bits is reset to ‘0’, the analog biases of the
corresponding channel will be enabled, as well as the
clock and the digital circuitry. The ADC of the
corresponding channel will give a data ready after the
sinc filter settling time has occurred. However, since
the analog biases are not completely settled at the
beginning of the conversion, the sampling may not be
accurate during about 1 ms (corresponding to the
settling time of the biasing in worst case conditions). In
order to ensure accuracy, the data ready pulse within
the delay of 1 ms + settling time of the sinc filter should
be discarded.
Each converter can be placed in Soft Reset mode
independently. The Configuration registers are not
modified by the Soft Reset mode. A data ready pulse
will not be generated by an ADC channel in Reset
mode.
When an ADC exits ADC Reset mode, any phase delay
present before Reset was entered will still be present.
If one ADC was not in Reset, the ADC leaving Reset
mode will automatically resynchronize the phase delay,
relative to the other ADC channel per the phase delay
register block and give data ready pulses accordingly.
If an ADC is placed in Reset mode while others are
converting, it does not shut down the internal clock.
When coming out of reset, it will be automatically
resynchronized with the clock, which did not stop
during Reset.
Each converter can be placed in Shutdown mode
independently. The configuration registers are not
modified by the Shutdown mode. This mode is only
available through programming the SHUTDOWN<2:0>
bits of the CONFIG1 register.
If all ADCs are in Soft Reset mode, the clock is no
longer distributed to the digital core for low-power
operation. Once any of the ADCs are back to normal
operation the clock is automatically distributed again.
The output data is flushed to all zeros while in ADC
Shutdown mode. No data ready pulses are generated
by any ADC while in ADC Shutdown mode.
However, when the eight channels are in Soft Reset
mode the input structure is still clocking if MCLK is
applied in order to properly bias the inputs, so that no
leakage current is observed. If MCLK is not applied,
large analog input leakage currents can be observed
for highly negative input voltages (typically below -0.6V
referred to AGND).
DS20005347A-page 28

MCP3919
When an ADC exits ADC Shutdown mode, any phase
delay present before shutdown was entered will still be
present. If one ADC was not in Shutdown, the ADC
leaving Shutdown mode will automatically resynchro-
nize the phase delay relative to the other ADC channel
per the phase delay register block and give data ready
pulses accordingly.
For this measurement, the goal is to measure the
active energy of one phase when the voltage Root
Mean Square (RMS) value is fixed and the current
RMS value is sweeping across the dynamic range
specified by the meter. The measurement error is the
nonlinearity error of the energy power across the
current dynamic range. It is expressed in percent (%).
Equation 4-13 shows the formula that calculates the
measurement error:
If an ADC is placed in Shutdown mode while others are
converting, it is not shutting down the internal clock.
When coming back out of Shutdown mode it will
automatically be resynchronized with the clock that did
not stop during reset.

If all ADCs are in ADC Shutdown mode, the clock is not
distributed to the input structure or to the digital core for
low-power operation. This can potentially cause high
analog input leakage currents at the analog inputs, if
the input voltage is highly negative (typically below -
0.6V referred to AGND). Once either of the ADCs is
back to normal operation, the clock is automatically
distributed again.
In the present device, the calculation of the active
energy is done externally as a post-processing step
that typically happens in the microcontroller,
considering, for example, the even channels as current
channels and the odd channels as voltage channels.
The odd channels (voltages) are fed with a full-scale
sine wave at 600 mV peak and are configured with
GAIN = 1 and DITHER = Maximum. To obtain the
active energy measurement error graphs, the even
channels are fed with sine waves with amplitudes that
vary from 600 mV peak to 60 µV peak, representing a
10000:1 dynamic range. The offset is removed on both
current and voltage channels and the channels are
multiplied together to give instantaneous power. The
active energy is calculated by multiplying the current
and voltage channel and averaging the results of this
power during 20 seconds, to extract the active energy.
The sampling frequency is chosen as a multiple integer
of line frequency (coherent sampling). Therefore, the
calculation does not take into account any residue
coming from bad synchronization.
4.22 Full Shutdown Mode
The lowest power consumption can be achieved when
SHUTDOWN<2:0> = 111, VREFEXT = CLKEXT = 1.
This mode is called Full Shutdown mode and no analog
circuitry is enabled. In this mode, both AVDD and DVDD
POR monitoring are also disabled and no clock is
propagated throughout the chip. All ADCs are in
Shutdown mode, and the internal voltage reference is
disabled. This mode does not reset the writable part of
the register map to its default values.
The clock is no longer distributed to the input structure
as well. This can potentially cause high analog input
leakage currents at the analog inputs, if the input volt-
age is highly negative (typically below -0.6V referred to
AGND).
The measurement error is a function of IRMS and varies
with the OSR, averaging time, MCLK frequency and is
tightly coupled with the noise and linearity
specifications. The measurement error is a function of
the linearity and THD of the ADCs, while the standard
deviation of the measurement error is a function of the
noise specification of the ADCs. Overall, the low THD
specification enables low measurement error on a very
large dynamic range (e.g. 10,000:1). A low noise and
high SNR specification enables the decreasing of the
measurement time and, therefore, the calibration time
to obtain a reliable measurement error specification.
The only circuit that remains active is the SPI interface
but this circuit does not induce any static power
consumption. If SCK is idle, the only current
consumption comes from the leakage currents induced
by the transistors.
This mode can be used to power down the chip
completely and avoid power consumption when there
is no data to convert at the analog inputs. Any SCK or
MCLK edge occurring while in this mode will induce
dynamic power consumption.
Figure 2-5 shows the typical measurement error
curves obtained with the samples acquired by the
MCP3919, using the default settings with a 1-point and
2-point calibration. These calibrations are detailed in
Section 8.0 “Basic Application Recommenda-
tions”.
Once any of the SHUTDOWN<2:0>, CLKEXT and
VREFEXT bits return to ‘0’, the two POR monitoring
blocks are operational and AVDD and DVDD monitoring
can take place.
4.23 Measurement Error
The measurement error specification is typically used
in power meter applications. This specification is a
measurement of the linearity of the active energy of a
given power meter across its dynamic range.

The delta-sigma modulators include a programmable
biasing circuit in order to further adjust the power
consumption to the sampling speed applied through
the MCLK. This can be programmed through the
BOOST<1:0> bits which are applied to all channels
simultaneously.
For a specified voltage reference value of 1.2V, the
specified differential input range is ±600 mV. The input
range is proportional to VREF and scales according to
the VREF voltage. This range ensures the stability of the
modulator over amplitude and frequency. Outside of
this range, the modulator is still functional; however, its
stability is no longer ensured and therefore it is not
recommended to exceed this limit. The saturation point
for the modulator is VREF/1.5 since the transfer function
of the ADC includes a gain of 1.5 by default
(independent from the PGA setting). See Section 5.5
“ADC Output Coding”).
The maximum achievable analog master clock speed
(AMCLK), the maximum sampling frequency (DMCLK)
and the maximum achievable data rate (DRCLK) highly
depend on BOOST<1:0> and PGA_CHn<2:0>
settings. Table 5-2 specifies the maximum AMCLK

THD and SFDR (for high OSR settings) while slightly
increasing the noise floor of the ADCs. For power
metering applications and applications that are
distortion sensitive, it is recommended to keep DITHER
at maximum settings for best THD and SFDR
performance. In the case of power metering
applications, THD and SFDR are critical specifications.
Optimizing SNR (noise floor) is not problematic due to
the large averaging factor at the output of the ADCs.
Therefore, even for low OSR settings the dithering

The gain of the transfer function of this filter is 1 at each
multiple of DMCLK (typically 1 MHz) so a proper anti-
aliasing filter must be placed at the inputs. This will
attenuate the frequency content around DMCLK and
keep the desired accuracy over the baseband of the
converter. This anti-aliasing filter can be a simple, first-
order RC network with a sufficiently low-time constant
to generate high rejection at the DMCLK frequency.
Any unsettled data is automatically discarded to avoid
data corruption. Each data-ready pulse corresponds to
fully settled data at the output of the decimation filter.
The first data available at the output of the decimation
filter is present after the complete settling time of the
filter (see Table 5-3). After the first data has been
processed, the delay between two data-ready pulses
coming from the same ADC channel is one DRCLK
period. The data stream from input to output is delayed
by an amount equal to the settling time of the filter
(which is the group delay of the filter).
The achievable resolution, the -3 dB bandwidth and the
settling time at the output of the decimation filter (the
output of the ADC) is dependent on the OSR of each
sinc filter and is summarized in Table 5-3.

Equation 5-3 is only true for DC inputs. For AC inputs,
this transfer function needs to be multiplied by the
transfer function of the SINC3+SINC1 filter (see
Equation 5-1 and Equation 5-3).

ADC Output Coding
The second order modulator, SINC3+SINC1 filter, PGA,
VREF and the analog input structure all work together to
produce the device transfer function for the analog-to-
digital conversion (see Equation 5-3).
EQUATION 5-3:
Each channel data is calculated on 24-bit (23-bit plus
sign) and coded in two's complement format, MSB first.
The output format can then be modified by the
WIDTH_DATA<1:0> settings in the STATUSCOM
register to allow 16-/24-/32-bit formats compatibility
(see Section 9.5 “STATUSCOM Register – Status

The ADC resolution is a function of the OSR
(Section 5.4 “SINC3 + SINC1 Filter”). The resolution
is the same for all channels. No matter what the
resolution is, the ADC output data is always calculated
in 24-bit words with added zeros at the end if the OSR
is not large enough to produce 24-bit resolution (left

limited by this noise component even at maximum
OSR. This auto-zeroing algorithm is performed
synchronously with the MCLK coming to the device.
5.6
Voltage Reference
5.6.1
INTERNAL VOLTAGE REFERENCE
The MCP3919 contains an internal voltage reference
source specially designed to minimize drift over
temperature. In order to enable the internal voltage
reference, the VREFEXT bit in the Configuration
register must be set to ‘0’ (default mode). This internal
VREF supplies reference voltage to all channels. The
typical value of this voltage reference is 1.2V ±2%. The
internal reference has a very low typical temperature
coefficient of ±9 ppm/°C, allowing the output to have
minimal variation with respect to temperature, since
they are proportional to (1/VREF).
5.6.3
TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION
(VREFCAL<7:0>)
The internal voltage reference consists of a proprietary
circuit and algorithm to compensate first order and sec-
ond order temperature coefficients. The compensation
enables very low temperature coefficients (typically
9 ppm/°C) on the entire range of temperatures, from
- 40°C to +125°C. This temperature coefficient varies
from part to part.
This temperature coefficient can be adjusted on each
part through the VREFCAL<7:0> bits present in the
CONFIG0 register (bits 7 to 0). These register settings
are only for advanced users. VREFCAL<7:0> should
not be modified unless the user wants to calibrate the
temperature coefficient of the whole system or
application. The default value of this register is set to
0x50. The default value (0x50) was chosen to optimize
the standard deviation of the tempco across process
variation. The value can be slightly improved to around
7 ppm/°C if the VREFCAL<7:0> is written at 0x42, but
this setting degrades the standard deviation of the
VREF tempco.The typical variation of the temperature
coefficient of the internal voltage reference with respect
to the VREFCAL register code is shown in Figure 5-6.
Modifying the value stored in the VREFCAL<7:0> bits
may also vary the voltage reference, in addition to the
temperature coefficient.
The noise of the internal voltage reference is low
enough not to significantly degrade the SNR of the
ADC, if compared to a precision external low-noise
voltage reference. The output pin for the internal volt-
age reference is REFIN+/OUT.
If the voltage reference is only used as an internal
VREF, adding bypass capacitance on REFIN+/OUT is
not necessary for keeping ADC accuracy but a minimal
0.1 µF ceramic capacitance can be connected to avoid
EMI/EMC susceptibility issues due to the antenna
created by the REFIN+/OUT pin, if left floating.
The bypass capacitors also help applications where the
voltage reference output is connected to other circuits.
In this case, additional buffering may be needed since
the output drive capability of this output is low.
Adding too much capacitance on the REFIN+/OUT pin
may slightly degrade the THD performance of the
ADCs.

DIFFERENTIAL EXTERNAL
VOLTAGE INPUTS
When the VREFEXT bit is set to ‘1’, the two reference
pins (REFIN+/OUT, REFIN-) become a differential
voltage reference input. The voltage at the
REFIN+/OUT is noted VREF+ and the voltage at the
REFIN- pin is noted VREF-. The differential voltage
input value is shown in Equation 5-4.

VREF Tempco vs. VREFCAL
The specified VREF range is from 1.1V to 1.3V. The
REFIN- pin voltage (VREF-) should be limited to ±0.1V,
with respect to AGND. Typically, for single-ended
reference applications, the REFIN- pin should be
directly connected to AGND, with its own separate track
to avoid any spike due to switching noise.
5.6.4
VOLTAGE REFERENCE BUFFERS
Each channel includes a voltage reference buffer tied
to the REFIN+/OUT pin, which allows the internal
capacitors to properly charge with the voltage
reference signals, even in the case of an external
voltage reference connection with weak load regulation
specifications. This ensures that the correct amount of
current is sourced to each channel to guarantee their
accuracy specifications and diminishes the constraints
on the voltage reference load regulation.
These buffers are injecting a certain quantity of
1/f noise into the system, noise that can be modulated
with the incoming input signals and that can limit the
SNR at very high OSR (OSR>256). To overcome this
limitation, these buffers include an auto-zeroing
algorithm that greatly diminishes their 1/f noise as well

The MCP3919 contains an internal POR circuit that
monitors both analog and digital supply voltages during
operation. The typical threshold for a power-up event
detection is 2.0V ±10% and a typical start-up time

sis for improved transient spike immunity that has a

Phase Delay Block
The MCP3919 incorporates a phase delay generator
which ensures that each pair of ADCs (CH0/1, CH1/2)
are converting the inputs with a fixed delay between
them. The three ADCs are synchronously sampling but
the averaging of modulator outputs is delayed so that
the sinc filter outputs (thus the ADC outputs) show a
fixed phase delay as determined by the PHASE
register setting. The odd channel (CH1) is the
reference channel for the phase delays of each pair,
they set the time reference. Typically, this channel can
be the voltage channel for a polyphase energy
metering application. The even channels (CH0/2) are
delayed, compared to the time reference (CH1), by a
fixed amount of time defined for each pair channel in
the PHASE register.
When the RESET pin is logic low, all ADCs will be in
Reset and output code 0x000000h. The RESET pin
performs a hard reset (DC biases are still on, the part
is ready to convert) and clears all charges contained in
the delta-sigma modulators. The comparator’s output is
‘0011’ for each ADC.
The sinc filters are all reset as well as their double out-
put buffers. This pin is independent of the serial inter-
face. It brings all the registers to the default state. When
RESET is logic low, any write with the SPI interface will
be disabled and will have no effect. All output pins
(SDO, DR) are high-impedance.
If an external clock (MCLK) is applied, the input struc-
ture is enabled and is properly biasing the substrate of
the input transistors. In this case, the leakage current
on the analog inputs is low if the analog input voltages
are kept between -1V and +1V.
If MCLK is not applied when in Reset mode, the
leakage can be high if the analog inputs are
below -0.6V, as referred to AGND
.

The PHASE register is split into two 12-bit banks that
represent the delay between each pair of channels.
The equivalence is defined in Table 5-8. Each phase
value (PHASEA/B) represents the delay of the even
channel with respect to the associated odd channel
with an 11-bit plus sign, MSB-first two's complement
code. This code indicates how many DMCLK periods
there are between each channel in the pair. (see
Equation 5-5). Since the odd channel is the time
reference, when PHASEX<11:0> is positive, the even
channel of the pair is lagging and the odd channel is
leading. When PHASEX<11:0> is negative, the even
channel of the pair is leading and the odd channel is
lagging.
5.9.1
PHASE DELAY LIMITS
The limits of the phase delays are determined by the
OSR settings: the phase delays can only go from
-OSR/2 to +OSR/2-1 DMCLK periods.
If larger delays between the two channels are needed,
they can be implemented externally to the chip with an
MCU. A FIFO in the MCU can save incoming data from
the leading channel for a number N of DRCLK clocks.
In this case, DRCLK would represent the coarse timing
resolution, and DMCLK the fine timing resolution. The
total delay will then be equal to:

Total Delay = N/DRCLK + PHASE/DMCLK

allows for the odd channel’s data ready signals to be

The DRSTATUS<2:0> bits are not writable; writing on
them has no effect. They have a default value of '1'
which indicates that the data of the corresponding ADC
is not ready. This means that the ADC output register
has not been updated since the last reading (or since
the last reset). The DRSTATUS bits take the '0' state
once the ADC channel register is updated (which hap-
pens at a DRCLK rate). A simple read of the STATUS-
COM register clears all the DRSTATUS bits to their
default value ('1').

5.10 Data Ready Link
5.12 Crystal Oscillator
There are two modes defined with the DR_LINK bit in
the STATUSCOM register that control the data ready
pulses. The position of the data ready pulses varies
with respect to this mode, to the OSR<2:0> and to the
PHASE register settings. Section 5.11 “Data Ready
Status Bits” represents the behavior of the data ready
pin with the two DR_LINK configurations
The MCP3919 includes a Pierce-type crystal oscillator
with very high stability and ensures very low tempco
and jitter for the clock generation. This oscillator can
handle crystal frequencies up to 20 MHz provided
proper load capacitances and quartz quality factors are
used. The crystal oscillator is enabled when
CLKEXT = 0in the CONFIG1 register.
• DR_LINK = 0: Data ready pulses from all enabled
channels are output on the DR pin.
For a proper start-up, the load capacitors of the crystal
should be connected between OSC1 and DGND and
between OSC2 and DGND. They should also respect
Equation 5-7.
• DR_LINK = 1(Recommended and Default mode):
Only the data ready pulses from the most lagging
ADC between all the active ADCs are present on
the DR pin.
EQUATION 5-7:
The lagging ADC data ready position depends on the
PHASE register, the PRE<1:0> and the OSR<2:0>
settings. In this mode, the active ADCs are linked
together so their data is latched together when the
lagging ADC output is ready. For power metering
applications, DR_LINK = 1 is recommended (Default
mode); it allows the host MCU to gather all channels
synchronously within a unique interrupt pulse and it
ensures that all channels have been latched at the
same time, so that no data corruption is happening.

5.11 Data Ready Status Bits
When CLKEXT = 1, the crystal oscillator is bypassed
by a digital buffer to allow direct clock input for an
external clock (see Figure 4-1). In this case, the OSC2
pin is pulled down internally to DGND and should be
connected to DGND externally for better EMI/EMC
immunity.
In addition to the data ready pin indicator, the
MCP3919 device includes a separate data-ready
status bit for each channel. Each ADC channel CHn is
associated to the corresponding DRSTATUS<n> that
can be read at all times in the STATUSCOM register.
These status bits can be used to synchronize the data
retrieval in case the DR pin is not connected (see
Section 6.8 “ADC Channels Latching and
Synchronization”).

DIGITAL OFFSET ERROR
CALIBRATION
The OFFCAL_CHn registers are 23-bit plus two’s
complement registers and whose LSB value is the
same as the Channel ADC Data. These registers are
added bit by bit to the ADC output codes if the
EN_OFFCAL bit is enabled. Enabling the EN_OFFCAL
bit does not create a pipeline delay; the offset addition
is instantaneous. For low OSR values, only the
significant digits are added to the output (up to the
resolution of the ADC; for example, at OSR = 32 only
the 17 first bits are added).
Note:
In addition to the conditions defining the
maximum MCLK input frequency range,
the AMCLK frequency should be
maintained inferior to the maximum limits
defined in Table 5-2 to ensure the
accuracy of the ADCs. If these limits are
exceeded, it is recommended to choose
either a larger OSR or a larger prescaler
value so that AMCLK can respect these
limits.
The offset is not added when the corresponding
channel is in Reset or Shutdown mode. The
corresponding input voltage offset value added by each
LSB in these 24-bit registers is:
5.13 Digital System Offset and Gain
Calibration Registers
The MCP3919 incorporates two sets of additional
registers per channel to perform system digital offset
and gain error calibration. Each channel has its own set
of associated registers that will modify the output result
of the channel, if calibration is enabled. The gain and
offset calibrations can be enabled or disabled through
two CONFIG0 bits (EN_OFFCAL and EN_GAINCAL).
These two bits enable or disable system calibration on
all channels at the same time. When both calibrations
are enabled, the output of the ADC is modified per
Section 5.13.1 “Digital Offset Error Calibration”.
EQUATION 5-8:
OFFSET(1LSB) = VREF/(PGA_CHn x 1.5 x 8388608)
This registers are a “Don't Care” if EN_OFFCAL = 0
(offset calibration disabled) but their value is not
cleared by the EN_OFFCAL bit.

The digital gain calibration does not function when the
corresponding channel is in Reset or Shutdown mode.
The gain multiplier value for an LSB in these 24-bit
registers is:

CALIBRATION
These registers are signed 24-bit MSB – first registers
coded with a range of -1x to +(1 - 2-23)x (from
0x800000 to 0x7FFFFF). The gain calibration adds 1x
to this register and multiplies it to the output code of the
channel bit by bit, after offset calibration. The range of
the gain calibration is thus from 0x to 1.9999999x (from
0x800000 to 0x7FFFFF). The LSB corresponds to
a 2-23 increment in the multiplier.
EQUATION 5-9:
GAIN (1LSB) = 1/8388608
This register is a “Don't Care” if EN_GAINCAL = 0
(offset calibration disabled) but its value is not cleared
by the EN_GAINCAL bit.
Enabling EN_GAINCAL creates a pipeline delay of
24 DMCLK periods on all channels. All data ready
pulses are delayed by 24 DMCLK periods, starting
from data ready following the command enabling
EN_GAINCAL bit. The gain calibration is effective on
the next data ready following the command enabling
EN_GAINCAL bit.
The output data on each channel is kept to either 7FFF
or 8000 (16-bit mode) or 7FFFFF or 800000 (24-bit
mode) if the output results are out of bounds after all
calibrations are performed.

MCP3919
The MCP3919 device also includes advanced security
features to secure each communication, to avoid
unwanted write commands being processed to change
the desired configuration and to alert the user in case
of a change in the desired configuration.
6.0
6.1
SPI SERIAL INTERFACE
DESCRIPTION
Overview
The MCP3919 device includes a four-wire (CS, SCK,
SDI, SDO) digital serial interface that is compatible with
SPI Modes 0,0 and 1,1. Data is clocked out of the
MCP3919 on the falling edge of SCK and data is
clocked into the MCP3919 on the rising edge of SCK.
In these modes, the SCK clock can idle either high (1,1)
or low (0,0). The digital interface is asynchronous with
the MCLK clock that controls the ADC sampling and
digital filtering. All the digital input pins are Schmitt-
triggered to avoid system noise perturbations on the
communications.
Each SPI read communication can be secured through
a selectable CRC-16 checksum provided on the SDO
pin at the end of every communication sequence. This
CRC-16 computation is compatible with the DMA CRC
hardware of the PIC24 and PIC32 MCUs, resulting in
no additional overhead for the added security.
For securing the entire configuration of the device, the
MCP3919 includes an 8-bit lock code (LOCK<7:0>)
which blocks all write commands to the full register
map if the value of the LOCK<7:0> is not equal to a
defined password (0xA5). The user can protect its
configuration by changing the LOCK<7:0> value to
0x00 after the full programming, so that any unwanted
write command will not result in a change to the
configuration (because LOCK<7:0> is different than the
password 0xA5).
Each SPI communication starts with a CS falling edge
and stops with the CS rising edge. Each SPI communi-
cation is independent. When CS is logic high, SDO is
in high-impedance, transitions on SCK and SDI have
no effect. Changing from an SPI Mode 1,1 to an SPI
Mode 0,0 and vice versa is possible and can be done
while the CS pin is logic high. Any CS rising edge clears
the communication and resets the SPI digital interface.
An additional CRC-16 calculation is also running con-
tinuously in the background to ensure the integrity of
the full register map. All writable registers of the regis-
ter map (except the MOD register) are processed
through a CRC-16 calculation engine and give a CRC-
16 checksum that depends on the configuration. This
checksum is readable on the LOCK/CRC register and
updated at all times. If a change in this checksum hap-
pens, a selectable interrupt can give a flag on the DR
pin (DR pin becomes logic low) to warn the user that
the configuration is corrupted.
Additional control pins (RESET, DR) are also provided
on separate pins for advanced communication
features. The Data Ready pin (DR) outputs pulses
when a new ADC channel data is available for reading,
which can be used as an interrupt for an MCU. The
master reset pin (RESET) acts like a hard reset and
can reset the part to its default power-up configuration
(equivalent to a POR state).
The MCP3919 interface has a simple command
structure. Every command is either a READ command
from a register, or a WRITE command to a register. The
MCP3919 device includes 32 registers defined in the
Table 9-1 register map. The first byte (8-bit wide)
transmitted is always the CONTROL byte that defines
the address of the register and the type of command
(Read or Write). It is followed by the register itself,
which can be in a 16-, 24- or 32-bit format depending
on the multiple format settings defined in the
STATUSCOM register. The MCP3919 is compatible
with multiple formats that help reduce overhead in the
data handling for most MCUs and processors available
on the market (8-/16- or 32-bit MCUs) and improve
MCU-code compaction and efficiency.
6.2
Control Byte
The control byte of the MCP3919 contains two device
Address bits (A<6:5>), five register Address bits
(A<4:0>) and a Read/Write bit (R/W). The first byte
transmitted to the MCP3919 in any communication is
always the control byte. During the control byte trans-
fer, the SDO pin is always in a high-impedance state.
The MCP3919 interface is device addressable
(through A<6:5>) so that multiple chips can be present
on the same SPI bus with no data bus contention, even
if they use the same CS pin, they use a provided half-
duplex SPI interface with a different address identifier.
This functionality enables, for example, a Serial
EEPROM like 24AAXXX/24LCXXX or 24FCXXX and
the MCP3919 to share all the SPI pins and consume
less I/O pins in the application processor since all these
The MCP3919 digital interface is capable of handling
various continuous read and write modes, which allow
it to perform ADC data streaming or full register map
writing within only one communication (and therefore
with only one unique control byte). The internal
registers can be grouped together with various
configurations through the READ<1:0> and WRITE
bits. The internal address counter of the serial interface
can be automatically incremented with no additional
control byte needed in order to loop through the various
groups of registers within the register map. The groups
are defined in Table 9-2.
Serial EEPROM circuits use A<6:5> = 00.

Four different Read mode configurations can be
defined through the READ<1:0> bits in the
STATUSCOM register for the address increment (see

Two different Write-mode configurations for the
address increment can be defined through the WRITE
bit in the STATUSCOM register (see Section 6.5, Con-
tinuous Communications, Looping on Register
Sets and Table 9-2). The SDO pin stays in a high-
impedance state during a write communication. The
data on SDI is clocked into the MCP3919 on the rising
edge of SCK. The writing format for each register is
defined in Section 6.5, Continuous Communica-
tions, Looping on Register Sets. A write on an unde-
fined or nonwritable address, such as the ADC
channel’s register addresses, will have no effect and
also will not increment the address counter.

Writing to the Device
The first register written from the SDI pin to the device
is the one defined by the address (A<4:0>) given in the
CONTROL byte. After this first register is fully
transmitted, if the CS pin is maintained logic low, the
communication continues without an additional control
byte and the SDI pin transmits another register with the
address automatically incremented or not, depending
on the WRITE bit setting.

high. The SPI internal register address pointer starts by
transmitting/receiving the address defined in the con-
trol byte. After this first transmission/reception, the SPI
internal register address pointer automatically incre-
ments to the next available address in the register set
for each transmission/reception. When it reaches the
last address of the set, the communication sequence is
finished. The address pointer automatically loops back
to the first address of the defined set and restarts a new
sequence with auto-increment (see Table 6-6). This
internal address pointer automatic selection allows the
following functionality:
6.5
Continuous Communications,
Looping on Register Sets
The MCP3919 digital interface can process communi-
cations in Continuous mode without having to enter an
SPI command between each read or write to a register.
This feature allows the user to reduce communication
overhead to the strict minimum, which diminishes EMI
emissions and reduces switching noise in the system.
The registers can be grouped into multiple sets for con-
tinuous communications. The grouping of the registers
in the different sets is defined by the READ<1:0> and
WRITE bits that control the internal SPI communication
address pointer. For a graphical representation of the
register map sets in function of the READ<1:0> and
WRITE bits, see Table 9-2.
• Read one ADC channel data, pairs of ADC
channels or all ADC channels continuously
• Continuously read the entire register map
• Continuously read or write each separate register
In the case of a continuous communication, there is
only one control byte on SDI to start the communication
after a CS pin falling edge. The part stays within the
same communication loop until the CS pin returns logic

6.5.1
CONTINUOUS READ
The STATUSCOM register contains the read
communication loop settings for the internal register
address pointer (READ<1:0> bits). For Continuous
Read modes, the address selection can take the
following four values:
Note:
For continuous reading of ADC data in
SPI Mode 0,0 (see Figure 6-7), once the
data has been completely read after a
data ready, the SDO pin will take the MSB
value of the previous data at the end of the
reading (falling edge of the last SCK
clock). If SCK stays idle at logic low (by
definition of Mode 0,0), the SDO pin will
be updated at the falling edge of the next
data ready pulse (synchronously with the
DR pin falling edge with an output timing
of tDODR) with the new MSB of the data
corresponding to the data ready pulse.
This mechanism allows the MCP3919 to
continuously read ADC data outputs
seamlessly, even in SPI Mode (0,0).

CONTINUOUS WRITE
6.7
Data Ready Pin (DR)
The STATUSCOM register contains the write loop
settings for the internal register address pointer
(WRITE). For a continuous write, the address selection
can take the following two values:
To communicate when channel data is ready for trans-
mission, the data ready signal is available on the Data
Ready pin (DR) at the end of a channel conversion.
The data ready pin outputs an active-low pulse with a
pulse width equal to half a DMCLK clock period. After a
data ready pulse falling edge has occurred, the ADC
output data is updated within the tDODR timing and can
then be read through SPI communication.
TABLE 6-2:

The first data ready pulse after a Hard or a Soft Reset
is located after the settling time of the sinc filter (see
Table 5-3) plus the phase delay of the corresponding
channel (see Section 5.9 “Phase Delay Block”).
Each subsequent pulse is then periodic and the period
is equal to a DRCLK clock period (see Equation 4-3
and Figure 1-3). The data ready pulse is always syn-
chronous with the internal DRCLK clock.

Static (no incrementation)
Types (default)
SDO is always in a high-impedance state during a
continuous write communication. Writing to
a
non-writable address (such as addresses 0x00 to
0x07) has no effect and does not increment the
address pointer. In this case, the user needs to stop the
communication and restart a communication with a
control byte pointing to a writable address (0x08 to
0x1F).
The DR pin can be used as an interrupt pin when con-
nected to an MCU or DSP, which will synchronize the
readings of the ADC data outputs. When not active-low,
this pin can either be in high-impedance (when
DR_HIZ = 0) or in a defined logic high state (when
DR_HIZ = 1). This is controlled through the STATUS-
COM register. This allows multiple devices to share the
same data ready pin (with a pull-up resistor connected
between DR and DVDD). If only the MCP3919 device is
connected on the interrupt bus, the DR pin does not
require a pull-up resistor and therefore it is recom-
mended to use DR_HIZ = 1 configuration for such
applications.
Note:
When LOCK<7:0> is different than 0xA5,
all the addresses, except 0x1F, become
nonwritable
(see
Section 4.13
“MCP3919 Delta-Sigma Architecture”)
6.6
Situations that Reset and Restart
Active ADCs
Immediately after the following actions, the active
ADCs (the ones not in Soft Reset or Shutdown modes)
are reset and automatically restarted in order to provide
proper operation:
The CS pin has no effect over the DR pin, which means
even if the CS pin is logic high, the data ready pulses
coming from the active ADC channels will still be
provided; the DR pin behavior is independent from the
SPI interface. While the RESET pin is logic low, the DR
pin is not active. The DR pin is latched in the logic low
state when the interrupt flag on the CRCREG is present
to signal that the desired registers configuration has
been corrupted (see Section 6.11 “Detecting
Configuration Change Through CRC-16 Checksum
On Register Map and its Associated Interrupt
Flag”).
1. Change in PHASE register.
2. Overwrite of the same PHASE register value.
3. Change in the OSR<2:0> settings.
4. Change in the PRE<1:0> settings.
5. Change in the CLKEXT setting.
6. Change in the VREFEXT setting.
After these temporary resets, the ADCs go back to
Normal operation with no need for an additional
command. Each ADC data output register is cleared
during this process. The PHASE register can be used
to serially soft reset the ADCs, without using the
RESET<2:0> bits in the Configuration register, if the
same value is written in the PHASE register.

ADC Channels Latching and

6.9
Securing Read Communications
Through CRC-16 Checksum
The ADC channel’s data output registers (addresses
0x00 to 0x02) have a double buffer output structure.
The two sets of latches in series are triggered by the
data ready signal and an internal signal indicating the
beginning of a read communication sequence (read
start).
Since power/energy metering systems can generate or
receive large EMI/EMC interferences and large
transient spikes, it is helpful to secure SPI
communications as much as possible to maintain data
integrity and desired configurations during the lifetime
of the application.
The first set of latches holds each ADC channel data
output register when the data is ready and latches all
active outputs together when DR_LINK = 1. This
behavior is synchronous with the DMCLK clock.
The communication data on the SDO pin can be
secured through the insertion of a Cyclic Redundancy
Check (CRC) checksum at the end of each continuous
reading sequence. The CRC checksum on
communications can be enabled or disabled through
the EN_CRCCOM bit in the STATUSCOM register. The
CRC message ensures the integrity of the read
sequence bits transmitted on the SDO pin and the CRC
checksum is inserted in between each read sequence
(see Figure 6-9).
The second set of latches ensures that when reading
starts on an ADC output, the corresponding data is
latched so that no data corruption can occur within a
read. This behavior is synchronous with the SCK clock.
If an ADC read has started, in order to read the follow-
ing ADC output, the current reading needs to be fully
completed (all bits must be read on the SDO pin from
the ADC output data registers).
Since the double output buffer structure is triggered
with two events that depend on two asynchronous
clocks (data ready with DMCLK and read start with
SCK), implement one of the three following methods on
the MCU or processor in order to synchronize the
reading of the channels:
1. Use the data ready pin pulses as an
interrupt: once a falling edge occurs on the DR
pin, the data is available for reading on the ADC
output registers after the tDODR timing. If this
timing is not respected, data corruption can
occur.
2. Use a timer clocked with MCLK as
a
synchronization event: since the data ready is
synchronous with DMCLK, the user can
calculate the position of the data ready
depending on the PHASE, the OSR<2:0> and
the PRE<1:0> settings for each channel. Again,
the tDODR timing needs to be added to this
calculation, to avoid data corruption.
3. Poll the DRSTATUS<2:0> bits in the
STATUSCOM register: this method consists of
continuously reading the STATUSCOM register
and waiting for the DRSTATUS bits to be equal
to '0'. When this event happens, the user can
start a new communication to read the desired
ADC data. In this case, no additional timing is
required.
The first method is the preferred one, as it can be used
without adding additional MCU code space but requires
connecting the DR pin to an I/O pin of the MCU. The
last two methods require more MCU code space and
execution time but they allow synchronized reading of
the channels without connecting the DR pin, which
saves one I/O pin on the MCU.

Since this feature is intended for protecting the
configuration of the device, this calculation is run
continuously only when the register map is locked
(LOCK<7:0> different than 0xA5, see Section 6.10,
Locking/Unlocking Register Map Write Access). If
the register map is unlocked, the CRCREG<15:0> bits
are cleared and no CRC is calculated.
6.10 Locking/Unlocking Register Map
Write Access
The MCP3919 digital interface includes an advanced
security feature that permits locking or unlocking the
register map write access. This feature prevents the
miscommunications that can corrupt the desired
configuration of the device, especially an SPI read
becoming an SPI write because of the noisy
environment.
The calculation is fully completed in 14 DMCLK periods
and refreshed every 14 DMCLK periods continuously.
The CRCREG<15:0> bits are reset when a POR or a
hard reset occurs. All the bits contained in the registers
from addresses 0x09 — 0x1F are processed by the
CRC engine to give the CRCREG<15:0>. The
DRSTATUS<5:0> bits are set to '1' (default) and the
CRCREG<15:0> bits are set to '0' (default) for this
calculation engine, as they could vary during the
calculation.
The last register address of the register map
(0x1F: LOCK/CRC) contains the LOCK<7:0> bits. If
these bits are equal to the password value (which is
equal to the default value of 0xA5), the register map
write access is not locked. Any write can take place and
the communications are not protected.
When the LOCK<7:0> bits are different than 0xA5, the
register map write access is locked. The register map,
and therefore the full device configuration, is write-
protected. Any write to an address other than 0x1F will
yield no result. All the register addresses, except the
address 0x1F, become read-only. In this case, if the
user wants to change the configuration, the
LOCK<7:0> bits have to be reprogrammed back to
0xA5 before sending the desired write command.
An interrupt flag can be enabled through the EN_INT
bit in the STATUSCOM register and provided on the DR
pin when the configuration has changed without a write
command being processed. This interrupt is a logic low
state. This interrupt is cleared when the register map is
unlocked (since the CRC calculation is not processed).
At power-up, the interrupt is not present and the
register map is unlocked. As soon as the user finishes
writing its configuration, the user needs to lock the
register map (writing 0x00 for example in the LOCK
bits) to be able to use the interrupt flag. The
CRCREG<15:0> bits will be calculated for the first time
in 14 DMCLK periods. This first value will then be the
reference checksum value and will be latched
internally, until a hard reset, a POR, or an unlocking of
the register map happens. The CRCREG<15:0> will
then be calculated continuously and checked against
the reference checksum. If the CRCREG<15:0> is
different than the reference, the interrupt sends a flag
by setting the DR pin to a logic low state until it is
cleared.
The LOCK<7:0> bits are located in the last register, so
the user can program the whole register map, starting
from 0x09 to 0x1E within one continuous write
sequence and then lock the configuration at the end of
the sequence by writing all zeros, in the address 0x1F
for example.
6.11 Detecting Configuration Change
Through CRC-16 Checksum On
Register Map and its Associated
Interrupt Flag
In order to prevent internal corruption of the register
and to provide additional security on the register map
configuration, the MCP3919 device includes an
automatic and continuous CRC checksum calculation
on the full register map configuration bits. This
calculation is not the same as the communication CRC
checksum described in Section 6.9 “Securing Read
Communications Through CRC-16 Checksum”.
This calculation takes the full register map as the CRC
message and outputs
a
checksum on the
CRCREG<15:0> bits located in the LOCK/CRC
register (address 0x1F).

The SDO pin becomes the only output of the device
and is fully synchronous with the serial/master clock.
The SDO pin is never in high-impedance in this mode
and is, by default, at logic low when not transmitting
data. The SDO pin idles logic low in this mode because
most of the digital isolator devices consume less cur-
rent in a logic low state than in a logic high state. This
effectively reduces the total power consumption of a
system with digital isolation devices.

2-WIRE SERIAL INTERFACE
DESCRIPTION
OVERVIEW
The 2-Wire Interface mode is designed for applications
that require galvanic isolation. It allows a minimum
number of digital isolator channels, specifically one bi-
directional or two unidirectional channels to be con-
nected to the MCP3919 when interfacing through an
isolation barrier. This functionality reduces the total
system cost in an isolated applications system like a
polyphase shunt-based energy meter. It is recom-
mended to use the MCP3919 with the 2-Wire mode for
digitally isolated applications and with the SPI mode for
other applications where galvanic isolation is not
required.
When the part has entered 2-Wire mode, the logic pins
RESET, SDI, CS, OSC1 and DR become logic input
pins for the configuration of the device (respectively
OSR0/OSR1/BOOST/GAIN0/GAIN1). These pins
need to have well-defined logic states for low-power
applications. These pins define the only settings that
can be modified in 2-Wire mode.
The MDAT0/1 pins are always disabled and kept into a
high-impedance state during the 2-Wire Interface
mode. These pins can be grounded for applications
exclusively using the 2-Wire Interface mode so that the
EMI/EMC susceptibility of the part is improved.
The principle of this 2-Wire Interface is simple: it has a
serial clock input pin (SCK/MCLK), and a serial data
output pin (SDO) and it automatically sends output data
in packets (frames) at a DRCLK data rate (every time
new data is available on the ADC outputs). It has no
serial input pin to diminish the number of isolated chan-
nels. At the same time, the serial clock pin SCK also
becomes the master clock (MCLK) input pin of the
device and the part becomes fully synchronous with
SCK = MCLK. The system then becomes fully synchro-
nous and can be driven by only one master clock for
multiple phases, which ensures proper synchronization
and constant phase angle between phases, which is
important for an energy metering application.

When the user wants to exclusively use the 2-Wire
Interface mode in digitally isolated applications, the
OSC2 pin should always be in a logic-high state, start-
ing from the power-up of the part. Otherwise, the user
can change the interface mode by toggling the
OSC2/MODE pin within a POR, a Hard Reset or a
Watchdog Timer Reset; the MODE is latched when
exiting one of these three types of reset. When the part
has entered 2-Wire mode, the entire part configuration
keeps its default settings (see Section 9.0 “MCP3919
Internal Registers” for the default settings of all inter-
nal registers) except for the configuration of the Gain in
Channel 0, the OSR and the BOOST settings.

2-Wire Communication Protocol
In 2-Wire mode, the SCK/MCLK pin needs to be
clocked continuously at all times for proper operation.
In 2-Wire Interface mode, the input pins
OSR0/OSR1/BOOST/GAIN0/GAIN1 are latched on
the OSC2/MODE rising edge and should typically be
directly connected to DVDD or DGND, depending on the
desired configuration. These pins define the only con-
figurable settings in 2-Wire mode. If more settings are
required by the application, it is recommended to use
the SPI mode. The following tables describe the config-
uration options for these five pins.
Any change in the clock frequency will lead to
degraded THD/SFDR specifications. The part obeys
the same timing specifications in both SPI and 2-Wire
Interface mode for SCK/SDO pins. The MCLK maxi-
mum input frequency is 10 MHz in 2-Wire mode, since
the converter still respects Table 5-2 for maximum
AMCLK frequency (provided the part has entered 2-
Wire mode at power-up). Since the MCLK is divided
internally, the part accepts a wide range of duty cycles
for the SCK input, provided the serial interface timings
are respected.
7.2.1
OSR1/OSR0
OSR Setting Logic Pins. These inputs are Schmitt-trig-
gered.
In 2-Wire Interface mode, communication uses framed
data sets on the SDO to output data at a fixed data rate,
synchronously with SCK and using only one output pin.
The frame is different depending on the device and the
oversampling ratio (OSR) selected. When in OSR = 64
mode, the MCP3919 frame contains the sync bytes
(16-bit), three channels of 16-bit ADC data and a 16-bit
CRC. For OSR = 128 and higher, each frame is a group
of 13 bytes (104 bits), clocked by the serial clock SCK.
Each frame is composed of a sync word (2 bytes), 24-
bit data output words (3 bytes) for each channel and
16-bit CRC. The sync word comes first, followed by
Channel 0 ADC output (DATA_CH0<23:0>), Channel 1
ADC output (DATA_CH1<23:0>), Channel 2 ADC out-
put (DATA_CH2<23:0>) and 16-bit CRC (see Figure 7-
1 and Figure 7-2).

As a verification feature, the sync word contains all set-

(OSR0/1, GAIN0/1, BOOST), in order to provide the
user with the information about this configuration. It
also provides information about the count of the frame
through bits CNT0/1, which is useful when the SDO is
multiplexed at the output of the digital isolators (see
next paragraph). The sync word also contains an addi-
tional sync byte (fixed at 0xA5 value) for additional
security in synchronization and communication.

It should also be noted that since the PHASE register
is back to its default value in the 2-Wire mode, there is
no delay between the two channels in this mode and
the conversions start after a delay of OSR/2 DMCLK

periods).

These four frames can be used to multiplex SDO at the
output of the digital isolators. In this case, up to four
channels (typically three phases and one neutral for
energy metering applications) can be multiplexed.
The output data of each individual MCP3919 device
can be attributed to a different frame (FRAME0, 1, 2 or
3) and retrieved on a single SDO line after the digital
isolators, provided that the isolators have a chip enable
or a multiplexing feature. The frame counter can then
be used to retrieve the information about which
MCP3919 part is actually being read. After the four
frames have been transmitted, the SDO pin idles logic
low to reduce digital isolator power consumption until
the next data is available. If OSR = 64, the SDO never
idles because the data is directly available after the four
frames are transmitted. Figure 7-3 displays the timing
diagram for 2-Wire Interface mode, showing all OSR
possibilities. Note that the first set of frames is sent only
when the first data is ready, which means that the set-
tling time of the sinc filter will be elapsed before sending
the first set of frames as represented in Figure 7-3.

7.4
Watchdog Timer Reset, Resetting
the Part in 2-Wire Mode
When the part has entered in the 2-Wire mode, the
Hard Reset mode functionality is not available because
the RESET pin becomes the logic input for OSR0. If the
user wants to execute a full reset of the part without
doing a POR, the 2-Wire mode incorporates an internal
watchdog timer that automatically performs a full reset
of the part, if the timer has elapsed. The watchdog timer
starts synchronously with each rising edge of
SCK/MCLK. If the SCK logic-high state is maintained
for a time that is larger than tWATCH, the watchdog time
circuit forces the full reset of the chip, which then
returns to its default configuration with all ADCs being
reset. If the SCK logic-high state is maintained for a
time shorter than tWATCH and then SCK/MCLK toggles
to logic low, the internal timer is cleared, waiting for
another rising edge to restart.
The watchdog timer functionality induces a restriction
in the usable range of frequencies on SCK/MCLK. In
order to avoid intermittent resets in all cases, the mini-
mum SCK/MCLK frequency in 2-Wire Interface mode is
equal to the inverse of the minimum tWATCH time
(1/(2 x 3.6 µs) = 138.9 kHz, if the duty cycle of the
SCK/MCLK is 50%).
The watchdog timer starts only on the rising edge of
SCK/MCLK, not on the falling edge. Maintaining
CK/MCLK at a logic low state for large periods of time
does not create any watchdog timer resets. A Watch-
dog Timer Reset is created only when the SCK/MCLK
state is maintained logic high during a long enough
period of time.
This watchdog timer period permits ? to exit the 2-Wire
Interface, if desired, by toggling the OSC2/MODE pin to
logic low before creating the Watchdog Timer Reset
and by maintaining it logic low until the reset happens.

Since all channels are identical in the MCP3919, any
channel can be chosen as the voltage channel (prefer-
ably CH0 or CH2 since they are on the edges and can
lead to a cleaner layout).

MCP3919
Another possibility, sometimes easier to implement in
terms of PCB layout is to consider the MCP3919 as an
analog component and, therefore, connect both AVDD
and DVDD together, and AGND and DGND together, with
a star connection. In this scheme, the decoupling
capacitors may be larger due to the ripple on the digital
power supply (caused by the digital filters and the SPI
interface of the MCP3919) now causing glitches on the
analog power supply.
8.2
Power Supply Design and
Bypassing
The MCP3919 device was designed to measure posi-
tive and negative voltages that might be generated by
a current sensing device. This current sensing device,
with a common mode voltage close to 0V, is referred to
as AGND, which is a shunt or current transformer (CT)
with burden resistors attached to ground. The high per-
formance and good flexibility that characterize this
ADC enables them to be used in other applications as
long as the absolute voltage on each pin, referred to
AGND, stays in the -1V to +1V interval.
ID
IA
In any system, the analog ICs (such as references or
operational amplifiers) are always connected to the
analog ground plane. The MCP3919 should also be
considered as a sensitive analog component and con-
nected to the analog ground plane. The ADC features
two pairs of pins: AGND, AVDD, DGND and DVDD. For
best performance, it is recommended to keep the two
pairs connected to two different networks (Figure 8-2).
This way, the design will feature two ground traces and
two power supplies (Figure 8-3).

This means the analog circuitry (including MCP3919)
and the digital circuitry (MCU) should have separate
power supplies and return paths to the external ground
reference, as described in Figure 8-2. An example of a
typical power supply circuit, with different lines for ana-
log and digital power, is shown in Figure 8-3. A possible
split example is shown in Figure 8-4, where the ground
star connection can be done at the bottom of the device
with the exposed pad. The split here between analog
and digital can be done under the device and AVDD and
DVDD can be connected together with lines coming
under the ground plane.

8.3
SPI Interface Digital Crosstalk
The MCP3919 incorporates a high-speed 20 MHz SPI
digital interface. This interface can induce a crosstalk,
especially with the outer channels (CH0, for example),
if it is running at its full speed without any precautions.
The crosstalk is caused by the switching noise created
by the digital SPI signals (also called ground bouncing).
This crosstalk would negatively impact the SNR in this
case. The noise is attenuated if a proper separation
between the analog and digital power supplies is put in
place (see Section 8.2 “Power Supply Design and
Bypassing”).

In order to further remove the influence of the SPI
communication on measurement accuracy, it is
recommended to add series resistors on the SPI lines
to reduce the current spikes caused by the digital
switching noise (see Figure 8-5 where these resistors
have been implemented). The resistors also help to
keep the level of electromagnetic emissions low.
FIGURE 8-4:
Digital Circuits on Layout.
Separation of Analog and
Figure 8-5 shows a more detailed example with a direct
connection to a high-voltage line (e.g., a 2-wire 120V or
220V system). A current-sensing shunt is used for
current measurement on the high side/line side that
also supplies the ground for the system. This is
necessary as the shunt is directly connected to the
channel input pins of the MCP3919. To reduce
sensitivity to external influences such as EMI, these
two wires should form a twisted pair as noted in
Figure 8-5. The power supply and MCU are separated
on the right side of the PCB, surrounded by the digital
ground plane. The MCP3919 is kept on the left side,
surrounded by the analog ground plane. There are two
separate power supplies going to the digital section of
the system and the analog section including the
MCP3919. With this placement, there are two separate
current supply paths and current return paths, IA and ID.
The measurement graphs provided in this MCP3919
data sheet have been performed with 100 series
resistors connected on each SPI I/O pin. Measurement
accuracy disturbances have not been observed even at
the full speed of 20 MHz interfacing.
The crosstalk performance is dependent on the
package choice due to the difference in the pin
arrangement (dual in-line or quad), and is improved in
the QFN-28 package.
8.4
Sampling Speed and Bandwidth
If ADC power consumption is not a concern in the
design, the boost settings can be increased for best
performance so that the OSR is always kept at the
maximum settings to improve the SINAD performance
(see Table 8-1). If the MCU cannot generate a clock
fast enough, it is possible to tap the OSC1/OSC2 pins
of the MCP3919 crystal oscillator directly to the crystal
of the microcontroller. When the sampling frequency is
enlarged, the phase resolution is improved and with the
OSR increased, the phase compensation range can be
kept in the same range as the default settings.

The ferrite bead between the digital and analog ground
planes helps keep high-frequency noise from entering
the device. This ferrite bead is recommended to be low
resistance; most often it is a THT component. Ferrite
beads are typically placed on the shunt inputs and into
the power supply circuit for additional protection.

MCP3919
The MCP3919 is highly recommended in applications
using di/dt as current sensors because of the extremely
low noise floor at low frequencies. In such applications,
a low-pass filter (LPF) with a cut-off frequency much
lower than the signal frequency (50-60 Hz for metering)
is used to compensate for the 90 degree shift and for
the 20 db/decade attenuation induced by the di/dt sen-
sor. Because of this filter, the SNR will be decreased
since the signal will attenuate by a few orders of mag-
nitude, while the low-frequency noise will not be atten-
uated. Usually, a high-order high-pass filter (HPF) is
used to attenuate the low-frequency noise in order to
prevent a dramatic degradation of the SNR, which can
be very important in other parts. A high-order filter will
also consume a significant portion of the computation
power of the MCU. When using the MCP3919, such a
high-order HPF is not required since this part has a low
noise floor at low frequencies. A first-order HPF is
enough to achieve very good accuracy.
8.5
Differential Inputs
Anti-Aliasing Filter
Due to the nature of the ADCs used in the MCP3919
(oversampling converters), each differential input of the
ADC channels requires an anti-aliasing filter so that the
oversampling frequency (DMCLK) is largely attenuated
and does not generate any disturbances on the ADC
accuracy. This anti-aliasing filter also needs to have a
gain close to one in the signal bandwidth of interest.
Typically for 50/60 Hz measurement and default set-
tings (DMCLK = 1 MHz), a simple RC filter with 1 k
and 100 nF can be used. The anti-aliasing filter used
for the measurement graphs is a first-order RC filter
with 1 k and 15 nF. The typical schematic for connect-
ing a current transformer to the ADC is shown in
Figure 8-6. If wires are involved, twisting them is also
recommended.
8.6
Energy Measurement
Error Considerations
The measurement error is a typical representation of
the nonlinearity of a pair of ADCs (see Section 4.0
“Terminology And Formulas” for the definition of
measurement error). The measurement error is
dependent on the THD and on the noise floor of the
ADCs.
Improving the measurement error specification on the
MCP3919 can be realized by increasing the OSR (to
get a better SINAD and THD performance) and, to
some extent, the BOOST settings (if the bandwidth of
the measurements is too limited by the bandwidth of
the amplifiers in the sigma-delta ADCs). In most of the
energy metering AC applications, high-pass filters are
used to cancel the offset on each ADC channel (current
and voltage channels) and therefore a single-point
calibration is necessary to calibrate the system for
active energy measurement. This calibration is a
system gain calibration and the user can utilize the
EN_GAINCAL bit and the GAINCAL_CHn registers to
perform this digital calibration. After such calibration,
typical measurement error curves like Figure 2-5 can
be generated by sweeping the current channel
amplitude and measuring the energy at the outputs (the
energy calculations here are being realized off-chip).
The error is measured using a gain of 1x, as it is
commonly used in most CT-based applications.
FIGURE 8-6:
Filter for CT-Based Designs.
First-Order Anti-Aliasing
The di/dt current sensors, such as Rogowski coils, can
be an alternative to current transformers. Since these
sensing elements are highly sensitive to high-
frequency electromagnetic fields, using a second order
anti-aliasing filter is recommended to increase the
attenuation of potential perturbing RF signals.

MCP3919
At low-signal amplitude values (typically 1000:1
dynamic range and higher), the crosstalk between
channels, mainly caused by the PCB, becomes a
significant part of the perturbation as the measurement
error increases. The 1-point measurement error curves
in Figure 2-5 have been performed with a full-scale
sine wave on all the inputs that are not measured,
which means that these channels induce a maximum
amount of crosstalk on the measurement error curve.
In order to avoid such behavior, a 2-point calibration
can be put in place in the calculation section.
This 2-point calibration can be a simple linear
interpolation between two calibration points (one at
high amplitudes, one at low amplitudes at each end of
the dynamic range) and helps to significantly lower the
effect of crosstalk between channels. A 2-point
calibration is very effective in maintaining the
measurement error close to zero on the whole dynamic
range since the nonlinearity and distortion of the
MCP3919 is very low. Figure 2-6 shows the
measurement error curves obtained with the same
ADC data taken for Figure 2-5 but where a 2-point
calibration has been applied. The difference is
significant only at the low end of the dynamic range
where all the perturbing factors are a bigger part of the
ADC output signals. These curves show extremely tight
measurement error across the full dynamic range
(here, typically 10,000:1) which is required in
high-accuracy class meters.

The ADC Channel Data Output registers always
contain the most recent A/D conversion data for each
channel. These registers are read-only. They can be
accessed independently or linked together (with
READ<1:0> bits). These registers are latched when an
ADC read communication occurs. When a data ready
event occurs during a read communication, the most
current ADC data is also latched to avoid data
corruption issues. These registers are updated and
latched together if DR_LINK = 1 synchronously with
the data ready pulse (toggling on the most lagging
ADC channel data ready event).

LOCK<7:0>: Lock Code for the writable part of the register map
LOCK<7:0> = PASSWORD =0xA5 (Default value): The entire register map is writable. The CRCREG<15:0> bits
and the CRC Interrupt are cleared. No CRC-16 checksum on register map is calculated.
LOCK<7:0> different than 0xA5: The only writable register is the LOCK/CRC register. All other registers will appear
as undefined while in this mode. The CRCREG checksum is calculated continuously and can generate
interrupts if the CRC Interrupt EN_INT bit has been enabled. If a write to a register needs to be performed, the
user needs to unlock the register map beforehand by writing 0xA5 to the LOCK<7:0> bits.
bit 15-0
CRCREG<15:0>: CRC-16 Checksum that is calculated with the writable part of the register map as a message. This
is a read-only 16-bit code. This checksum is continuously recalculated and updated every 14 DMCLK periods.
It is reset to its default value (0x0000) when LOCK<7:0> = 0xA5.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
•
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
•
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
•
•
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
Information contained in this publication regarding device
applications and the like is provided only for your convenience
and may be superseded by updates. It is your responsibility to
ensure that your application meets with your specifications.
