FEATURES

Highly accurate; supports EN 50470-1, EN 50470-3,

IEC 62053-21, IEC 62053-22, and IEC 62053-23 standards

Compatible with 3-phase, 3- or 4-wire (delta or wye), and

other 3-phase services

Supplies total (fundamental and harmonic) active, reactive

(ADE7878, ADE7868, and ADE7858 only), and apparent

energy, and fundamental active/reactive energy (ADE7878

only) on each phase and on the overall system

dynamic range of 1000 to 1 at T_A= 25°C

lations, as well as fundamental-only active and reactive energy

measurement (ADE7878) and rms calculations. A fixed function

digital signal processor (DSP) executes this signal processing.

The DSP program is stored in the internal ROM memory.

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 are suitable for

measuring active, reactive, and apparent energy in various 3-phase

configurations, such as wye or delta services, with both three

and four wires. The ADE78xx devices provide system calibration

features for each phase, that is, rms offset correction, phase

calibration, and gain calibration. The CF1, CF2, and CF3 logic

outputs provide a wide choice of power information: total active,

reactive, and apparent powers, or the sum of the current rms

values, and fundamental active and reactive powers.

Less than 0.2% error in active and reactive energy over a

dynamic range of 3000 to 1 at T_A= 25°C

Supports current transformer and di/dt current sensors

Dedicated ADC channel for neutral current input (ADE7868 and

ADE7878 only)

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 contain wave-

form sample registers that allow access to all ADC outputs. The

devices also incorporate power quality measurements, such as

short duration low or high voltage detections, short duration

high current variations, line voltage period measurement, and

angles between phase voltages and currents. Two serial interfaces,

SPI and I²C, can be used to communicate with the ADE78xx. A

dedicated high speed interface, the high speed data capture

(HSDC) port, can be used in conjunction with I²C to provide

access to the ADC outputs and real-time power information.

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 also have two

Less than 0.1% error in voltage and current rms over a

dynamic range of 1000 to 1 at T_A= 25°C

TERMINOLOGY

Measurement Error

ADC Offset Error

The error associated with the energy measurement made by the

ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 is defined by

This refers to the dc offset associated with the analog inputs to

the ADCs. It means that with the analog inputs connected to

AGND, the ADCs still see a dc analog input signal. The magni-

tude of the offset depends on the gain and input range selection

(see the Typical Performance Characteristics section). However,

the HPF removes the offset from the current and voltage channels

and the power calculation remains unaffected by this offset.

Measurement Error =

Energy Registered by ADE7878 −True Energy

×100% (1)

True Energy

Phase Error Between Channels

The high-pass filter (HPF) and digital integrator introduce a

slight phase mismatch between the current and the voltage

channel. The all digital design ensures that the phase matching

between the current channels and voltage channels in all three

phases is within 0.1° over a range of 45 Hz to 65 Hz and 0.2°

over a range of 40 Hz to 1 kHz. This internal phase mismatch

can be combined with the external phase error (from current

sensor or component tolerance) and calibrated with the phase

calibration registers.

Gain Error

The gain error in the ADCs of the ADE7854/ADE7858/

ADE7868/ADE7878 is defined as the difference between the

measured ADC output code (minus the offset) and the ideal

output code (see the Current Channel ADC section and the

Voltage Channel ADC section). The difference is expressed as a

percentage of the ideal code.

CF Jitter

The period of pulses at one of the CF1, CF2, or CF3 pins is

continuously measured. The maximum, minimum, and average

values of four consecutive pulses are computed as follows:

Power Supply Rejection (PSR)

This quantifies the ADE7878 measurement error as a percen-

tage of reading when the power supplies are varied. For the ac

PSR measurement, a reading at nominal supplies (3.3 V) is

taken. A second reading is obtained with the same input signal

levels when an ac signal (120 mV rms at 100 Hz) is introduced

onto the supplies. Any error introduced by this ac signal is

expressed as a percentage of reading—see the Measurement

Error definition.

Maximum = max(Period

₀, Period₁, Period₂, Period₃)

Minimum = min(Period₀, Period₁, Period₂, Period₃)

Period₀+ Period₁+ Period₂+ Period₃

Average =

4

The CF jitter is then computed as

For the dc PSR measurement, a reading at nominal supplies

(3.3 V) is taken. A second reading is obtained with the same

input signal levels when the power supplies are varied 10%.

Any error introduced is expressed as a percentage of the

reading.

ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

POWER MANAGEMENT

The ADE7868/ADE7878 have four modes of operation, deter-

mined by the state of the PM0 and PM1 pins (see Table 9). The

ADE7854/ADE7858 have two modes of operation. These pins

provide complete control of the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/

ADE7878 operation and can easily be connected to an external

microprocessor I/O. The PM0 and PM1 pins have internal pull-

up resistors. See Table 11 and Table 12 for a list of actions that are

recommended before and after setting a new power mode.

In summary, in this mode, it is not recommended to access any

register other than AIMAV, BIMAV, and CIMAV. The circuit

that measures these estimates of rms values is also active during

PSM0; therefore, its calibration can be completed in either PSM0

mode or in PSM1 mode. Note that the ADE7868 and ADE7878

do not provide any register to store or process the corrections

resulting from the calibration process. The external microprocessor

stores the gain values in connection with these measurements

and uses them during PSM1 (see the Current Mean Absolute

Value Calculation—ADE7868 and ADE7878 Only section for

more details on the xIMAV registers).

The 20-bit mean absolute value measurements done in PSM1,

although available also in PSM0, are different from the rms

measurements of phase currents and voltages executed only in

PSM0 and stored in the xIRMS and xVRMS 24-bit registers. See

the Current Mean Absolute Value Calculation—ADE7868 and

ADE7878 Only section for details.

¹Available in the ADE7868 and ADE7878.

PSM0—NORMAL POWER MODE (ALL PARTS)

In PSM0 mode, the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

are fully functional. The PM0 pin is set to high and the PM1 pin

is set to low for the ADE78xx to enter this mode. If the ADE78xx

is in one of PSM1, PSM2, or PSM3 modes and is switched into

PSM0 mode, then all control registers take the default values with

the exception of the threshold register, LPOILVL, which is used

in PSM2 mode, and the CONFIG2 register, both of which

maintain their values.

If the ADE7868/ADE7878 is set in PSM1 mode while still in the

PSM0 mode, the ADE7868/ADE7878 immediately begin the

mean absolute value calculations without any delay. The xIMAV

registers are accessible at any time; however, if the ADE7878 or

ADE7868 is set in PSM1 mode while still in PSM2 or PSM3

modes, the ADE7868/ADE7878 signal the start of the mean

PSM1—REDUCED POWER MODE (ADE7868,

ADE7878 ONLY)

The reduced power mode, PSM1, is available on the ADE7868

and ADE7878 only. In this mode, the ADE7868/ADE7878

measure the mean absolute values (mav) of the 3-phase currents

and store the results in the AIMAV, BIMAV, and CIMAV 20-bit

registers. This mode is useful in missing neutral cases in which

the voltage supply of the ADE7868 or ADE7878 is provided by an

external battery. The serial ports, I²C or SPI, are enabled in this

mode; the active port can be used to read the AIMAV, BIMAV,

and CIMAV registers. It is not recommended to read any of the

other registers because their values are not guaranteed in this

mode. Similarly, a write operation is not taken into account by

the ADE7868/ADE7878 in this mode.

The measurement period is

(LPLINE[4:0] + 1)/50 sec.

The threshold is derived from Bits[2:0] (LPOIL[2:0]) of the

LPOILVL register as LPOIL[2:0]/8 of full scale. Every time

one phase current becomes greater than the threshold, a

counter is incremented. If every phase counter remains below

called missing neutral and is considered a tampering situation,

at which point the external microprocessor sets the ADE7868/

of phase currents, and integrates the energy based on their values

Figure 24. Power-Up Procedure

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 contain an on-

chip power supply monitor that supervises the power supply

(VDD). At power-up, until VDD reaches 2 V 10%, the chip is

in an inactive state. As VDD crosses this threshold, the power

supply monitor keeps the chip in this inactive state for an

additional 26 ms, allowing VDD to achieve 3.3 V − 10%, the

minimum recommended supply voltage. Because the PM0 and

PM1 pins have internal pull-up resistors and the external micro-

processor keeps them high, the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/

ADE7878 always power-up in sleep mode (PSM3). Then, an

external circuit (that is, a microprocessor) sets the PM1 pin to a

low level, allowing the ADE78xx to enter normal mode (PSM0).

The passage from PSM3 mode, in which most of the internal

circuitry is turned off, to PSM0 mode, in which all functionality

is enabled, is accomplished in less than 40 ms (see Figure 24 for

details).

Immediately after entering PSM0, the ADE7854/ADE7858/

ADE7868/ADE7878 set all registers to their default values,

including the CONFIG2 and LPOILVL registers.

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 signals the end

register to test the state of the RSTDONE bit. At this point, as a

good programming practice, it is also recommended to cancel

all other status flags in the STATUS1 and STATUS0 registers by

writing the corresponding bits with 1.

If PSM0 mode is the only desired power mode, the PM1 pin can

be set low permanently by using a direct connection to ground.

The PM0 pin can remain open because the internal pull-up

resistor ensures that its state is high.

Initially, the DSP is in idle mode, which means it does not

execute any instruction. This is the moment to initialize all

ADE78xx registers. See the Digital Signal Processor section for

the recommended procedure to initialize all registers and start

the metering.

When the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 enter PSM0

active serial port, Bit 1 (I2C_LOCK) of the CONFIG2 register

must be set to 1 to lock it in. From this moment, the ADE78xx

ignores spurious toggling of the /HSA pin, and an eventual

when the ADE78xx changes PSMx power modes.

THEORY OF OPERATION

ANALOG INPUTS

Figure 27 shows how the gain selection from the gain register

works in both current and voltage channels.

The ADE7868/ADE7878 have seven analog inputs forming

current and voltage channels. The ADE7854/ADE7858 have six

analog inputs, not offering the neutral current. The current

channels consist of four pairs of fully differential voltage inputs:

IAP and IAN, IBP and IBN, ICP and ICN, and INP and INN.

These vol-tage input pairs have a maximum differential signal of

0.5 V. In addition, the maximum signal level on analog inputs

for the IxP/IxN pair is 0.5 V with respect to AGND. The

maximum common-mode signal allowed on the inputs is 25 mV.

Figure 25 presents a schematic of the input for the current

channels and their relation to the maximum common-mode

voltage.

ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERSION

The ADE7868/ADE7878 have seven sigma-delta (Σ-Δ) analog-

to-digital converters (ADCs), and the ADE7854/ADE7858 have

six Σ-Δ ADCs. In PSM0 mode, all ADCs are active. In PSM1

mode, only the ADCs that measure the Phase A, Phase B, and

Phase C currents are active. The ADCs that measure the neutral

current and the A, B, and C phase voltages are turned off. In

PSM2 and PSM3 modes, the ADCs are powered down to

minimize power consumption.

All inputs have a programmable gain amplifier (PGA) with a

possible gain selection of 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16. The gain of IA, IB, and

IC inputs is set in Bits[2:0] (PGA1[2:0]) of the gain register. For

the ADE7868 and ADE7878 only, the gain of the IN input is set

in Bits[5:3] (PGA2[2:0]) of the gain register; thus, a different gain

from the IA, IB, or IC inputs is possible. See Table 44 for details

1-BIT DAC

The voltage channel has three single-ended voltage inputs: VAP,

VBP, and VCP. These single-ended voltage inputs have a maximum

input voltage of 0.5 V with respect to VN. In addition, the max-

imum signal level on analog inputs for VxP and VN is 0.5 V

with respect to AGND. The maximum common-mode signal

allowed on the inputs is 25 mV. Figure 26 presents a schematic

of the voltage channels inputs and their relation to the maximum

common-mode voltage.

Figure 28. First-Order Σ-∆ ADC

A Σ-Δ modulator converts the input signal into a continuous

serial stream of 1s and 0s at a rate determined by the sampling

clock. In the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878, the

sampling clock is equal to 1.024 MHz (CLKIN/16). The 1-bit

DAC in the feedback loop is driven by the serial data stream.

The DAC output is subtracted from the input signal. If the loop

gain is high enough, the average value of the DAC output (and,

therefore, the bit stream) can approach that of the input signal

level. For any given input value in a single sampling interval, the

data from the 1-bit ADC is virtually meaningless. Only when a

large number of samples are averaged is a meaningful result

obtained. This averaging is carried out in the second part of the

ADC, the digital low-pass filter. By averaging a large number of

bits from the modulator, the low-pass filter can produce 24-bit

data-words that are proportional to the input signal level.

All inputs have a programmable gain with a possible gain

selection of 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16. To set the gain, use Bits[8:6]

(PGA3[2:0]) in the gain register (see Table 44).

The Σ-Δ converter uses two techniques to achieve high resolu-

tion from what is essentially a 1-bit conversion technique. The

first is oversampling. Oversampling means that the signal is

sampled at a rate (frequency) that is many times higher than

Rev. F | Page 26 of 98

Data Sheet

ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

the bandwidth of interest. For example, the sampling rate in

the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 is 1.024 MHz,

and the bandwidth of interest is 40 Hz to 2 kHz. Oversampling

has the effect of spreading the quantization noise (noise due to

sampling) over a wider bandwidth. With the noise spread more

thinly over a wider bandwidth, the quantization noise in the band

of interest is lowered, as shown in Figure 29. However, oversam-

pling alone is not efficient enough to improve the signal-to-noise

ratio (SNR) in the band of interest. For example, an oversampling

factor of 4 is required just to increase the SNR by a mere 6 dB

(1 bit). To keep the oversampling ratio at a reasonable level, it is

possible to shape the quantization noise so that the majority of

the noise lies at the higher frequencies. In the Σ-Δ modulator,

the noise is shaped by the integrator, which has a high-pass-type

response for the quantization noise. This is the second technique

used to achieve high resolution. The result is that most of the

noise is at the higher frequencies where it can be removed by

the digital low-pass filter. This noise shaping is shown in Figure 29.

and prevent the distortion of the band of interest, a low-pass

filer (LPF) must be introduced. For conventional current

sensors, it is recommended to use one RC filter with a corner

frequency of 5 kHz for the attenuation to be sufficiently high at

the sampling frequency of 1.024 MHz. The 20 dB per decade

attenuation of this filter is usually sufficient to eliminate the

effects of aliasing for conventional current sensors. However, for a

di/dt sensor such as a Rogowski coil, the sensor has a 20 dB per

decade gain. This neutralizes the 20 dB per decade attenuation

produced by the LPF. Therefore, when using a di/dt sensor, take

care to offset the 20 dB per decade gain. One simple approach is

to cascade one additional RC filter, thereby producing a −40 dB

per decade attenuation.

All ADCs in the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 are

designed to produce the same 24-bit signed output code for the

same input signal level. With a full-scale input signal of 0.5 V

and an internal reference of 1.2 V, the ADC output code is nomi-

nally 5,928,256 (0x5A7540). The code from the ADC can vary

between 0x800000 (−8,388,608) and 0x7FFFFF (+8,388,607);

this is equivalent to an input signal level of 0.707 V. However,

Figure 31 shows the ADC and signal processing path for

Input IA of the current channels (it is the same for IB and IC).

The ADC outputs are signed twos complement 24-bit data-

words and are available at a rate of 8 kSPS (thousand samples

per second). With the specified full-scale analog input signal

of 0.5 V, the ADC produces its maximum output code value.

Figure 31 shows a full-scale voltage signal applied to the differ-

ential inputs (IAP and IAN). The ADC output swings between

−5,928,256 (0xA58AC0) and +5,928,256 (0x5A7540). The

input, IN, corresponds to the neutral current of a 3-phase

system (available in the ADE7868 and ADE7878 only). If no

neutral line is present, connect this input to AGND. The

datapath of the neutral current is similar to the path of the

phase currents as shown in Figure 32.

Figure 28 also shows an analog low-pass filter (RC) on the input

to the ADC. This filter is placed outside the ADE7854/ADE7858/

ADE7868/ADE7878, and its role is to prevent aliasing. Aliasing

is an artifact of all sampled systems as shown in Figure 30. Aliasing

means that frequency components in the input signal to the

ADC, which are higher than half the sampling rate of the ADC,

appear in the sampled signal at a frequency below half the

sampling rate. Frequency components above half the sampling

frequency (also known as the Nyquist frequency, that is, 512 kHz)

are imaged or folded back down below 512 kHz. This happens

with all ADCs regardless of the architecture. In the example shown,

only frequencies near the sampling frequency, that is, 1.024 MHz,

move into the band of interest for metering, that is, 40 Hz to

2 kHz. To attenuate the high frequency (near 1.024 MHz) noise

to the 24-bit signed current waveform gain registers (AIGAIN,

BIGAIN, CIGAIN, and NIGAIN). For example, if 0x400000 is

written to those registers, the ADC output is scaled up by 50%.

To scale the input by −50%, write 0xC00000 to the registers.

Equation 3 describes mathematically the function of the current

waveform gain registers.

The ADC outputs can contain a dc offset. This offset can create

errors in power and rms calculations. High-pass filters (HPFs)

are placed in the signal path of the phase and neutral currents

and of the phase voltages. If enabled, the HPF eliminates any dc

offset on the current channel. All filters are implemented in the

DSP and, by default, they are all enabled: the 24-bit HPFDIS

register is cleared to 0x00000000. All filters are disabled by

setting HPFDIS to any nonzero value.

Changing the content of the AIGAIN, BIGAIN, CIGAIN, or

loop generate an electromotive force (EMF) between the two

ends of the loop. The EMF is a voltage signal that is propor-

tional to the di/dt of the current. The voltage output from the

di/dt current sensor is determined by the mutual inductance

between the current carrying conductor and the di/dt sensor.

The waveform samples of the current channel are taken at the

output of HPF and stored in the 24-bit signed registers, IAW V,

IBW V, ICWV, and INWV (ADE7868 and ADE7878 only) at a

rate of 8 kSPS. All power and rms calculations remain uninter-

rupted during this process. Bit 17 (DREADY) in the STATUS0

register is set when the IAWV, IBWV, ICWV, and INWV registers

are available to be read using the I²C or SPI serial port. Setting

Bit 17 (DREADY) in the MASK0 register enables an interrupt

to be set when the DREADY flag is set. See the Digital Signal

Processor section for more details on Bit DREADY.

Due to the di/dt sensor, the current signal needs to be filtered

before it can be used for power measurement. On each phase and

neutral current datapath, there is a built-in digital integrator to

recover the current signal from the di/dt sensor. The digital inte-

grator is disabled by default when the ADE78xx is powered up

and after a reset. Setting Bit 0 (INTEN) of the CONFIG register

turns on the integrator. Figure 37 and Figure 38 show the

magnitude and phase response of the digital integrator.

As stated in the Current Waveform Gain Registers section, the

serial ports of the ADE78xx work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit words.

When the IAW V, IBW V, IC WV, and INWV 24-bit signed

registers are read from the ADE78xx (INWV is available on

ADE7868/ADE7878 only), they are transmitted sign extended

to 32 bits. See Figure 35 for details.

Note that the integrator has a −20 dB/dec attenuation and

approximately −90° phase shift. When combined with a di/dt

sensor, the resulting magnitude and phase response should be a

flat gain over the frequency band of interest. However, the di/dt

sensor has a 20 dB/dec gain associated with it and generates sig-

nificant high frequency noise. An antialiasing filter of at least

the second order is needed to avoid noise aliasing back in the

band of interest when the ADC is sampling (see the Antialiasing

Filter section).

Voltage Waveform Gain Registers

CHANGING PHASE VOLTAGE DATAPATH

There is a multiplier in the signal path of each phase voltage.

The voltage waveform can be changed by 100% by writing

a corresponding twos complement number to the 24-bit signed

voltage waveform gain registers (AVGAIN, BVGAIN, and

CVGAIN). For example, if 0x400000 is written to those registers,

the ADC output is scaled up by 50%. To scale the input by −50%,

write 0xC00000 to the registers. Equation 4 describes mathe-

matically the function of the current waveform gain registers.

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 can direct one

phase voltage input to the computational datapath of another

phase. For example, Phase A voltage can be introduced in the

Phase B computational datapath, which means all powers

computed by the ADE78xx in Phase B are based on Phase A

voltage and Phase B current.

Bits[9:8] (VTOIA[1:0]) of the CONFIG register manage the

Phase A voltage measured at the VA pin. If V TOIA[1:0] = 00

(default value), the voltage is directed to the Phase A computa-

tional datapath. If VTOIA[1:0] = 01, the voltage is directed to

the Phase B path. If VTOIA[1:0] = 10, the voltage is directed to the

Phase C path. If VTOIA[1:0] = 11, the ADE7878 behaves as if

VTOIA[1:0] = 00.

Changing the content of the AVGAIN, BVGAIN, and CVGAIN

registers affects all calculations based on its voltage; that is, it

affects the corresponding phase active/reactive/apparent energy

and voltage rms calculation. In addition, waveform samples are

scaled accordingly.

Bits[11:10] (VTOIB[1:0]) of the CONFIG register manage the

Phase B voltage measured at the VB pin. If VTOIB[1:0] = 00

(default value), the voltage is directed to the Phase B computa-

tional datapath. If VTOIB[1:0] = 01, the voltage is directed to

the Phase C path. If VTOIB[1:0] = 10, the voltage is directed to

the Phase A path. If VTOIB[1:0] = 11, the ADE78xx behaves

as if VTOIB[1:0] = 00.

As stated in the Current Waveform Gain Registers section, the

serial ports of the ADE78xx work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit words,

and the DSP works on 28 bits. As presented in Figure 33, the

AVGAIN, BVGAIN, and CVGAIN registers are accessed as 32-

bit registers with four MSBs padded with 0s and sign extended

to 28 bits.

Bits[13:12] (VTOIC[1:0]) of the CONFIG register manage the

Phase C voltage measured at the VC pin. If VTOIC[1:0] = 00

(default value), the voltage is directed to Phase C computational

datapath, if VTOIC[1:0] = 01, the voltage is directed to the

Phase A path. If VTOIC[1:0] = 10, the voltage is directed to the

Phase B path. If VTOIC[1:0] = 11, the ADE78xx behaves as if

VTOIC[1:0] = 00.

Voltage Channel HPF

As explained in the Current Channel HPF section, the ADC

outputs can contain a dc offset that can create errors in power

and rms calculations. HPFs are placed in the signal path of the

phase voltages, similar to the ones in the current channels. The

HPFDIS register can enable or disable the filters. See the

Zero-Crossing Timeout

Every zero-crossing detection circuit has an associated timeout

register. This register is loaded with the value written into the

16-bit ZXTOUT register and is decremented (1 LSB) every

62.5 µs (16 kHz clock). The register is reset to the ZXTOUT

value every time a zero crossing is detected. The default value of

this register is 0xFFFF. If the timeout register decrements to 0

before a zero crossing is detected, one of Bits[8:3] of the

The output of LPF1 is used to generate zero crossing events.

The low-pass filter is intended to eliminate all harmonics of

50 Hz and 60 Hz systems, and to help identify the zero-crossing

events on the fundamental components of both current and

voltage channels.

The digital filter has a pole at 80 Hz and is clocked at 256 kHz.

As a result, there is a phase lag between the analog input signal

(one of IA, IB, IC, VA, VB, and VC) and the output of LPF1.

The error in ZX detection is 0.0703° for 50 Hz systems (0.0843°

for 60 Hz systems). The phase lag response of LPF1 results in a

time delay of approximately 31.4° or 1.74 ms (at 50 Hz) between

its input and output. The overall delay between the zero crossing

on the analog inputs and ZX detection obtained after LPF1 is

about 39.6° or 2.2 ms (at 50 Hz). The ADC and HPF introduce

the additional delay. The LPF1 cannot be disabled to assure a

good resolution of the ZX detection. Figure 41 shows how the

zero-crossing signal is detected.

STATUS1 register is set to 1. Bit 3 (ZXTOVA), Bit 4 (ZXTOVB),

and Bit 5 (ZXTOVC) in the STATUS1 register refer to Phase A,

Phase B, and Phase C of the voltage channel; Bit 6 (ZXTOIA),

Bit 7 (ZXTOIB), and Bit 8 (ZXTOIC) in the STATUS1 register

refer to Phase A, Phase B, and Phase C of the current channel.

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 have the capa-

phase currents, or between voltages and currents of the same

phase. The negative-to-positive transitions identified by the zero-

crossing detection circuit are used as start and stop measuring

points. Only one set of such measurements is available at one time,

based on Bits[10:9] (ANGLESEL[1:0]) in the COMPMODE

sensors are used; therefore, it is not recommended to use the

detection circuit. In these cases, use the time intervals between

phase voltages to analyze the phase sequence (see the Time

Once a phase sequence error has been detected, the time

as low as 3.9 Hz (256 kHz/2¹⁶). The period register is stable at

1 LSB when the line is established and the measurement does

not change.

Figure 47 shows Phase A voltage falling below a threshold that

is set in the SAG level register (SAGLVL) for four half-line cycles

(SAGCYC = 4). When Bit 16 (SAG) in the STATUS1 register is set

to 1 to indicate the condition, Bit VSPHASE[0] in the PHSTATUS

register is also set to 1 because the event happened on Phase A

Bit 16 (SAG) in the STATUS1 register. All Bits[14:12] (VSPHASE[2],

VSPHASE[1], and VSPHASE[0]) of the PHSTATUS register (not

just the VSPHASE[0] bit) are erased by writing the STATUS1

register with the SAG bit set to 1.

The following expressions can be used to compute the line

period and frequency using the period register:

PERIOD[15:0] +1

The SAGCYC register represents the number of half-line cycles

the phase voltage must remain below the level indicated in the

SAGLVL register to trigger a SAG condition; 0 is not a valid

number for SAGCYC. For example, when the SAG cycle

(SAGCYC[7:0]) contains 0x07, the SAG flag in the STATUS1

register is set at the end of the seventh half line cycle for which

the line voltage falls below the threshold. If Bit 16 (SAG) in

VSPHASE[0]]) of the PHSTATUS register are cleared, and the

pin is returned to high by writing to the STATUS1

register with the status bit set to 1.

The PEAKCYC register contains the number of half-line cycles

used as a time base for the measurement. The circuit uses the

zero-crossing points identified by the zero-crossing detection

circuit. Bits[4:2] (PEAKSEL[2:0]) in the MMODE register select

the phases upon which the peak measurement is performed. Bit 2

selects Phase A, Bit 3 selects Phase B, and Bit 4 selects Phase C.

Selecting more than one phase to monitor the peak values

decreases proportionally the measurement period indicated in

the PEAKCYC register because zero crossings from more

phases are involved in the process. When a new peak value is

determined, one of Bits[26:24] (IPPHASE[2:0] or VPPHASE[2:0])

in the IPEAK and VPEAK registers is set to 1, identifying the

phase that triggered the peak detection event. For example, if a

peak value has been identified on Phase A current, Bit 24

(IPPHASE[0]) in the IPEAK register is set to 1. If next time a

new peak value is measured on Phase B, Bit 24 (IPPHASE[0])

of the IPEAK register is cleared to 0, and Bit 25 (IPPHASE[1])

of the IPEAK register is set to 1. Figure 48 shows the composition

of the IPEAK and VPEAK registers.

When the Phase B voltage falls below the indicated threshold

into the SAGLVL register for two line cycles, Bit VSPHASE[1]

in the PHSTATUS register is set to 1, and Bit VSPHASE[0] is

cleared to 0. Simultaneously, Bit 16 (SAG) in the STATUS1 register

is set to 1 to indicate the condition.

Note that the internal zero-crossing counter is always active. By

setting the SAGLVL register, the first SAG detection result is,

therefore, not executed across a full SAGCYC period. Writing to

the SAGCYC register when the SAGLVL register is already initia-

lized resets the zero-crossing counter, thus ensuring that the first

SAG detection result is obtained across a full SAGCYC period.

The recommended procedure to manage SAG events is the

Figure 49 shows how the ADE78xx records the peak value on the

current channel when measurements on Phase A and Phase B are

enabled (Bit PEAKSEL[2:0] in the MMODE register are 011).

PEAKCYC is set to 16, meaning that the peak measurement

cycle is four line periods. The maximum absolute value of Phase A

is the greatest during the first four line periods (PEAKCYC = 16),

so the maximum absolute value is written into the less signifi-

cant 24 bits of the IPEAK register, and Bit 24 (IPPHASE[0]) of

the IPEAK register is set to 1 at the end of the period. This bit

remains at 1 for the duration of the second PEAKCYC period of

four line cycles. The maximum absolute value of Phase B is the

greatest during the second PEAKCYC period; therefore, the

maximum absolute value is written into the less significant

Overvoltage and Overcurrent Level Set

The status bit is cleared and the

pin is set back to high by

writing to the STATUS1 register with Bit 20 (MISMTCH) set to 1.

The content of the overvoltage (OVLVL), and overcurrent,

(OILVL) 24-bit unsigned registers is compared to the absolute

value of the voltage and current channels. The maximum value of

these registers is the maximum value of the HPF outputs:

+5,928,256 (0x5A7540). When the OVLVL or OILVL register is

equal to this value, the overvoltage or overcurrent conditions

are never detected. Writing 0x0 to these registers signifies the

overvoltage or overcurrent conditions are continuously detected,

and the corresponding interrupts are permanently triggered.

If ISUM − INWV ≤ ISUMLVL , then MISMTCH = 0

If ISUM − INWV > ISUMLVL , then MISMTCH = 1

ISUMLVL, the positive threshold used in the process, is a 24-bit

signed register. Because it is used in a comparison with an

absolute value, always set ISUMLVL as a positive number,

somewhere between 0x00000 and 0x7FFFFF. ISUMLVL uses

the same scale of the current ADCs outputs, so writing

+5,928,256 (0x5A7540) to the ISUMLVL register puts the

mismatch detection level at full scale; see the Current Channel

ADC section for details. Writing 0x000000, the default value, or

a negative value, signifies the MISMTCH event is always triggered.

The right value for the application should be written into the

ISUMLVL register after power-up or after a hardware/software

reset to avoid continuously triggering MISMTCH events.

As stated in the Current Waveform Gain Registers section, the

serial ports of the ADE78xx work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit words.

Similar to the register presented in Figure 34, OILVL and

OVLVL registers are accessed as 32-bit registers with the eight

MSBs padded with 0s.

Neutral current mismatch is available in the ADE7868 and

to the algebraic sum of the phase currents

As stated in the Current Waveform Gain Registers section, the

serial ports of the ADE7868/ADE7878 work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit

ISUM, the 28-bit signed register, is accessed as a 32-bit register

with the four most significant bits padded with 0s.

125 µs (8 kHz frequency), the rate at which the current samples

are available, and Bit 17 (DREADY) in the STATUS0 register is

used to signal when the ISUM register can be read. See the

Digital Signal Processor section for more details on Bit DREADY.

To recover I_SUM(t) value from the ISUM register, use the

following expression:

As described in the Current Channel ADC and Voltage Channel

ADC sections, the datapath for both current and voltages is the

same. The phase error between current and voltage signals

introduced by the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

is negligible. However, the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/

ADE7878 must work with transducers that may have inherent

phase errors. For example, a current transformer (CT) with a

phase error of 0.1° to 3° is not uncommon. These phase errors

can vary from part to part, and they must be corrected to

perform accurate power calculations.

The phase calibration registers (APHCAL, BPHCAL, and

CPHCAL) are 10-bit registers that can vary the time advance

in the voltage channel signal path from −374.0 µs to +61.5 μs.

Negative values written to the PHCAL registers represent a time

advance whereas positive values represent a time delay. One LSB

is equivalent to 0.976 µs of time delay or time advance (clock

rate of 1.024 MHz). With a line frequency of 60 Hz, this gives

a phase resolution of 0.0211° (360° × 60 Hz/1.024 MHz) at the

fundamental. This corresponds to a total correction range of

−8.079° to +1.329° at 60 Hz. At 50 Hz, the correction range is

−6.732° to +1.107° and the resolution is 0.0176° (360° × 50 Hz/

1.024 MHz).

Figure 53 illustrates how the phase compensation is used to remove

x = −1° phase lead in IA of the current channel from the external

current transducer (equivalent of 55.5 µs for 50 Hz systems). To

cancel the lead (1°) in the current channel of Phase A, a phase

lead must be introduced into the corresponding voltage channel.

Using Equation 8, APHCAL is 57 least significant bits, rounded

up from 56.8. The phase lead is achieved by introducing a time

delay of 55.73 µs into the Phase A current.

Given a phase error of x degrees, measured using the phase

voltage as the reference, the corresponding LSBs are computed

dividing x by the phase resolution (0.0211°/LSB for 60 Hz and

0.0176°/LSB for 50 Hz). Results between −383 and +63 only are

acceptable; numbers outside this range are not accepted. If the

current leads the voltage, the result is negative and the absolute

value is written into the PHCAL registers. If the current lags

the voltage, the result is positive and 512 is added to the result

before writing it into xPHCAL.

ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

To protect the integrity of the data stored in the data memory

RAM of the DSP (addresses between 0x4380 and 0x43BE),

a write protection mechanism is available. By default, the

protection is disabled and registers placed between 0x4380 and

0x43BE can be written without restriction. When the protection

is enabled, no writes to these registers is allowed. Registers can

be always read, without restriction, independent of the write

protection state.

REFERENCE CIRCUIT

The nominal reference voltage at the REF_IN/OUTpin is 1.2

0.075% V. This is the reference voltage used for the ADCs in

the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878. The REF_IN/OUT

pin can be overdriven by an external source, for example, an

external 1.2 V reference. The voltage of the ADE78xx reference

drifts slightly with temperature; see the Specifications section for

the temperature coefficient specification (in ppm/°C). The value of

the temperature drift varies from part to part. Because the refer-

ence is used for all ADCs, any x% drift in the reference results in

a 2x% deviation of the meter accuracy. The reference drift resulting

from temperature changes is usually very small and typically

much smaller than the drift of other components on a meter.

Alternatively, the meter can be calibrated at multiple temperatures.

To enable the protection, write 0xAD to an internal 8-bit

register located at Address 0xE7FE, followed by a write of 0x80

to an internal 8-bit register located at Address 0xE7E3.

It is recommended to enable the write protection after the

registers have been initialized. If any data memory RAM based

register needs to be changed, simply disable the protection,

change the value and then re-enable the protection. There is

no need to stop the DSP to change these registers.

If Bit 0 (EXTREFEN) in the CONFIG2 register is cleared to 0 (the

default value), the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 use

the internal voltage reference. If the bit is set to 1, the external

voltage reference is used. Set the CONFIG2 register during the

PSM0 mode. Its value is maintained during the PSM1, PSM2, and

PSM3 power modes.

To disable the protection, write 0xAD to an internal 8-bit

register located at Address 0xE7FE, followed by a write of 0x00

to an internal 8-bit register located at Address 0xE7E3.

The recommended procedure to initialize the ADE7854/

ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 registers at power up is as

follows:

DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 contain a fixed

function digital signal processor (DSP) that computes all powers

and rms values. It contains program memory ROM and data

memory RAM.

•

Initialize the AIGAIN, BIGAIN, CIGAIN, and NIGAIN

registers.

•

Start the DSP by setting run = 1.

The program used for the power and rms computations is

stored in the program memory ROM and the processor executes

it every 8 kHz. The end of the computations is signaled by

setting Bit 17 (DREADY) to 1 in the STATUS0 register. An

interrupt attached to this flag can be enabled by setting Bit 17

Initialize all the other data memory RAM registers. Write

the last register in the queue three times to ensure its

value was written into the RAM. Initialize all of the other

exception of the CFMODE register.

computations. The status bit is cleared and the

pin is set

to high by writing to the STATUS0 register with Bit 17 (DREADY)

set to 1.

Clear Bit 9 (CF1DIS), Bit 10 (CF2DIS), and Bit 11

(CF3DIS) in the CFMODE register to enable pulses at

the CF1, CF2, and CF3 pins. Do this initialization last,

so no spurious pulses are generated while the ADE7854/

ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 are initialized.

The registers used by the DSP are located in the data memory

RAM, at addresses between 0x4380 and 0x43BE. The width of

this memory is 28 bits. Within the DSP core, the DSP contains a

two stage pipeline. This means that when a single register needs

to be initialized, two more writes are required to ensure the

value has been written into RAM, and if two or more registers

need to be initialized, the last register must be written two more

times to ensure the value has been written into RAM.

•

Enable the write protection by writing 0xAD to an internal

8-bit register located at Address 0xE7FE, followed by a write of

0x80 to an internal 8-bit register located at Address 0xE7E3.

•

Read back all data memory RAM registers to ensure they

were initialized with the desired values.

As explained in the Power-Up Procedure section, at power-up

or after a hardware or software reset, the DSP is in idle mode.

No instruction is executed. All the registers located in the data

memory RAM are initialized at 0, their default values, and they

can be read/written without any restriction. The run register,

used to start and stop the DSP, is cleared to 0x0000. The run

register needs to be written with 0x0001 for the DSP to start

code execution.

In the remote case that one or more registers are not initia-

lized correctly, disable the protection by writing 0xAD to

an internal 8-bit register located at Address 0xE7FE, followed

by a write of 0x00 to an internal 8-bit register located at

Address 0xE7E3. Reinitialize the registers. Write the last

register in the queue three times. Enable the write protec-

tion by writing 0xAD to an internal 8-bit register located

Root mean square (rms) is a measurement of the magnitude of

an ac signal. Its definition can be both practical and mathematical.

Defined practically, the rms value assigned to an ac signal is the

amount of dc required to produce an equivalent amount of

between mav and rms values is maintained for the fundamental

components only. If harmonics are present in the current channel,

the mean absolute value is no longer proportional to rms.

Equation 10 implies that for signals containing harmonics, the

rms calculation contains the contribution of all harmonics, not

only the fundamental. The ADE78xx uses two different methods

to calculate rms values. The first one is very accurate and is active

only in PSM0 mode. The second one is less accurate, uses the

estimation of the mean absolute value (mav) measurement, is

active in PSM0 and PSM1 modes, and is available for the

ADE7868 and ADE7878 only.

Figure 54 shows the detail of the signal processing chain for the

rms calculation on one of the phases of the current channel.

The current channel rms value is processed from the samples

used in the current channel. The current rms values are signed

24-bit values and they are stored into the AIRMS, BIRMS, CIRMS,

and NIRMS (ADE7868/ADE7878 only) registers. The update

rate of the current rms measurement is 8 kHz.

With the specified full-scale analog input signal of 0.5 V, the

ADC produces an output code that is approximately 5,928,256.

The equivalent rms value of a full-scale sinusoidal signal is

4,191,910 (0x3FF6A6), independent of the line frequency. If

the integrator is enabled, that is, when Bit 0 (INTEN) in the

CONFIG register is set to 1, the equivalent rms value of a full-

scale sinusoidal signal at 50 Hz is 4,191,910 (0x3FF6A6) and at

60 Hz is 3,493,258 (0x354D8A).

The first method is to low-pass filter the square of the input

signal (LPF) and take the square root of the result (see Figure 54).

in its calculation all fundamental and harmonic components of

the voltages and currents. In addition, the ADE7878 computes

the fundamental active power, the power determined only by

the fundamental components of the voltages and currents.

Total Active Power Calculation

Electrical power is defined as the rate of energy flow from source

to load, and it is given by the product of the voltage and current

waveforms. The resulting waveform is called the instantaneous

power signal, and it is equal to the rate of energy flow at every

instant of time. The unit of power is the watt or joules/sec. If an

If the phase currents and voltages contain only the fundamental

component, are in phase (that is φ₁= γ₁= 0), and they correspond

the corresponding waveforms.

The output is scaled by −50% by writing 0xC00000 to the watt

to them. These registers are used to calibrate the active power

(or energy) calculation in the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/

ADE7878for each phase.

Calculation section, the active energy accumulation is performed

in two stages. Every time a sign change is detected in the energy

accumulation at the end of the first stage, that is, after the energy

accumulated into the internal accumulator reaches the WTHR

register threshold, a dedicated interrupt is triggered. The sign of

each phase active power can be read in the PHSIGN register.

As stated in the Current Waveform Gain Registers section, the

serial ports of the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit words, and the DSP works on 28 bits.

Similar to registers presented in Figure 33, AWGAIN, BWGAIN,

CWGAIN, AFWGAIN, BFWGAIN, and CFWGAIN 24-bit

signed registers are accessed as 32-bit registers with the four

MSBs padded with 0s and sign extended to 28 bits.

Bit 6 (REVAPSEL) in the ACCMODE register sets the type

of active power being monitored. When REVAPSEL is 0,

the default value, the total active power is monitored. When

REVAPSEL is 1, the fundamental active power is monitored.

Bits[8:6] (REVAPC, REVAPB, and REVAPA, respectively) in the

STATUS0 register are set when a sign change occurs in the

power selected by Bit 6 (REVAPSEL) in the ACCMODE

register.

Active Power Offset Calibration

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 incorporate a

watt offset 24-bit register on each phase and on each active

power. The AWAT TOS, BWATTOS, and CWATTOS registers

compensate the offsets in the total active power calculations,

and the AFWATTOS, BFWATTOS, and CFWATTOS registers

compensate offsets in the fundamental active power calculations.

These are signed twos complement, 24-bit registers that are

used to remove offsets in the active power calculations. An

offset can exist in the power calculation due to crosstalk between

channels on the PCB or in the chip itself. One LSB in the active

power offset register is equivalent to 1 LSB in the active power

multiplier output. With full-scale current and voltage inputs,

the LPF2 output is PMAX = 33,516,139. At −80 dB down from

the full scale (active power scaled down 10⁴times), one LSB of

the active power offset register represents 0.0298% of PMAX.

Bits[2:0] (CWSIGN, BWSIGN, and AWSIGN, respectively) in

the PHSIGN register are set simultaneously with the REVAPC,

REVA PB, and REVAPA bits. They indicate the sign of the power.

When they are 0, the corresponding power is positive. When

they are 1, the corresponding power is negative.

Bit REVAPx of STATUS0 and Bit xWSIGN in the PHSIGN

register refer to the total active power of Phase x, the power type

being selected by Bit 6 (REVAPSEL) in the ACCMODE register.

Interrupts attached to Bits[8:6] (REVA PC, REVA PB, and REVA PA,

Conversely, energy is given as the integral of power, as follows:

Sign of Active Power Calculation

The average active power is a signed calculation. If the phase

difference between the current and voltage waveform is more

than 90°, the average power becomes negative. Negative power

indicates that energy is being injected back on the grid. The

ADE78xx has sign detection circuitry for active power

calculations. It can monitor the total active powers or the

fundamental active powers. As described in the Active Energy

Figure 62. Total Active Energy Accumulation

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 achieve the

integration of the active power signal in two stages (see Figure 62).

The process is identical for both total and fundamental active

powers. The first stage is accomplished inside the DSP: every

125 µs (8 kHz frequency) the instantaneous phase total or funda-

mental active power is accumulated into an internal register.

When a threshold is reached, a pulse is generated at the processor

port, and the threshold is subtracted from the internal register.

The sign of the energy in this moment is considered the sign of

the active power (see Sign of Active Power Calculation section

for details). The second stage is done outside the DSP and consists

of accumulating the pulses generated by the processor into internal

32-bit accumulation registers. The content of these registers is

transferred to watt-hour registers, xWAT THR and xFWAT TH R,

when these registers are accessed.

where:

PMAX = 33,516,139 = 0x1FF6A6B as the instantaneous power

computed when the ADC inputs are at full scale.

f_S= 8 kHz, the frequency with which the DSP computes the

instantaneous power.

V_FS, I_FSare the rms values of phase voltages and currents when

the ADC inputs are at full scale.

The maximum value that can be written on WTHR is 2⁴⁷− 1.

The minimum value is 0x0, but it is recommended to write a

number equal to or greater than PMAX. Never use negative

numbers.

WTHR is a 48-bit register. As stated in the Current Waveform

Gain Registers section, the serial ports of the ADE7854/ADE7858/

ADE7868/ADE7878work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit words. As shown

in Figure 64, the WTHR register is accessed as two 32-bit

registers (WTHR1 and WTHR0), each having eight MSBs

padded with 0s.

This discrete time accumulation or summation is equivalent to

integration in continuous time following the description in

Equation 26.

Figure 63 explains this process. The WTHR 48-bit signed register

contains the threshold. It is introduced by the user and is common

for all phase total and fundamental active powers. Its value

depends on how much energy is assigned to one LSB of watt-

hour registers. When a derivative of active energy (wh) of [10ⁿ

wh], where n is an integer, is desired as one LSB of the

xWATTHR register, then, the xWATTHR register can be

computed using the following equation:

content can roll over to full-scale negative (0x80000000) and

continue increasing in value when the active power is positive.

Conversely, if the active power is negative, the energy register

decreasing in value.

Bit 0 (AEHF) in the STATUS0 register is set when Bit 30 of

0x4000 0000. If the active power is negative, the watt-hour

register becomes half full when it decrements from 0xC000

STATUS0 register with the corresponding bit set to 1.

Setting Bit 6 (RSTREAD) of the LCYCMODE register enables a

read-with-reset for all watt-hour accumulation registers, that is,

the registers are reset to 0 after a read operation.

Integration Time Under Steady Load

The discrete time sample period (T) for the accumulation register

is 125 µs (8 kHz frequency). With full-scale sinusoidal signals

on the analog inputs and the watt gain registers set to 0x00000, the

average word value from each LPF2 is PMAX = 33,516,139 =

0x1FF6A6B. If the WTHR register threshold is set at the PMAX

level, this means the DSP generates a pulse that is added at watt-

hour registers every 125 µs.

Line Cycle Active Energy Accumulation Mode

In line cycle energy accumulation mode, the energy accumula-

tion is synchronized to the voltage channel zero crossings such

that active energy is accumulated over an integral number of

half line cycles. The advantage of summing the active energy

over an integer number of line cycles is that the sinusoidal compo-

nent in the active energy is reduced to 0. This eliminates any

ripple in the energy calculation and allows the energy to be

accumulated accurately over a shorter time. By using the line

cycle energy accumulation mode, the energy calibration can be

greatly simplified, and the time required to calibrate the meter

can be significantly reduced. In line cycle energy accumulation

mode, the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 transfer the

active energy accumulated in the 32-bit internal accumulation

registers into the xWATHH R or xFWATTHR registers after an

integral number of line cycles, as shown in Figure 65. The

number of half line cycles is specified in the LINECYC register.

The maximum value that can be stored in the watt-hour

accumulation register before it overflows is 2³¹− 1 or

0x7FFFFFFF. The integration time is calculated as

Time = 0x7FFF,FFFF × 125 μs = 74 hr 33 min 55 sec (27)

Energy Accumulation Modes

The active power accumulated in each watt-hour accumulation

32-bit register (AWATTHR, BWATTHR, CWATTHR,

AFWATTHR, BFWATTHR, and CFWATTHR) depends on the

configuration of Bit 5 and Bit 4 (CONSEL bits) in the ACCMODE

register. The various configurations are described in Table 15.

Figure 65. Line Cycle Active Energy Accumulation Mode

A load that contains a reactive element (inductor or capacitor)

produces a phase difference between the applied ac voltage and

the resulting current. The power associated with reactive elements

is called reactive power, and its unit is VAR. Reactive power is

defined as the product of the voltage and current waveforms when

all harmonic components of one of these signals are phase

shifted by 90°.

The line cycle energy accumulation mode is activated by setting

Bit 0 (LWATT) in the LCYCMODE register. The energy accu-

mulation over an integer number of half line cycles is written

to the watt-hour accumulation registers after LINECYC number

of half line cycles is detected. When using the line cycle

accumulation mode, the Bit 6 (RSTREAD) of the LCYCMODE

register should be set to Logic 0 because the read with reset of

watt-hour registers is not available in this mode.

Equation 31 gives an expression for the instantaneous reactive

power signal in an ac system when the phase of the current

channel is shifted by +90°.

Phase A, Phase B, and Phase C zero crossings are, respectively,

included when counting the number of half line cycles by setting

Bits[5:3] (ZXSEL[x]) in the LCYCMODE register. Any combi-

nation of the zero crossings from all three phases can be used

for counting the zero crossing. Select only one phase at a time

for inclusion in the zero crossings count during calibration.

The number of zero crossings is specified by the LINECYC 16-bit

unsigned register. The ADE78xx can accumulate active power

for up to 65,535 combined zero crossings. Note that the internal

zero-crossing counter is always active. By setting Bit 0 (LWATT)

in the LCYCMODE register, the first energy accumulation

result is, therefore, incorrect. Writing to the LINECYC register

when the LWATT bit is set resets the zero-crossing counter, thus

ensuring that the first energy accumulation result is accurate.

100% by writing to one of the phase’s VAR gain 24-bit registers

(AVARGAIN, BVARGAIN, CVARGAIN, AFVARGAIN,

placed in each phase of the total reactive power datapath. The

xFVARGAIN registers are placed in each phase of the fundamental

reactive power datapath. The xVARGAIN registers are twos com-

plement signed registers and have a resolution of 2⁻²³/LSB. The

The ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 provide a reactive power

BVAROS, and CVAROS registers compensate the offsets in the

total reactive power calculations, whereas AFVAROS, BFVAROS,

and CFVAROS registers compensate offsets in the fundamental

reactive power calculations. These are signed twos complement,

24-bit registers that are used to remove offsets in the reactive

power calculations. An offset can exist in the power calculation

due to crosstalk between channels on the PCB or in the chip

itself. The offset resolution of the registers is the same as for the

The xVAR waveform registers can be accessed using various

The expression of fundamental reactive power is obtained from

Equation 33 with k = 1, as follows:

The ADE7878 computes the fundamental reactive power using

a proprietary algorithm that requires some initialization function

of the frequency of the network and its nominal voltage measured

in the voltage channel. These initializations are introduced in

the Active Power Calculation section and are common for both

fundamental active and reactive powers.

ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

Sign of Reactive Power Calculation

Both total and fundamental reactive energy accumulations are

always a signed operation. Negative energy is subtracted from

the reactive energy contents.

Note that the reactive power is a signed calculation. Table 18

summarizes the relationship between the phase difference between

the voltage and the current and the sign of the resulting reactive

power calculation.

Similar to active power, the ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

achieve the integration of the reactive power signal in two

stages (see Figure 66). The process is identical for both total and

fundamental reactive powers.

The ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 have sign detection circuitry

for reactive power calculations that can monitor the total reactive

powers or the fundamental reactive powers. As described in the

Reactive Energy Calculation section, the reactive energy accu-

mulation is executed in two stages. Every time a sign change is

detected in the energy accumulation at the end of the first stage,

that is, after the energy accumulated into the internal accumulator

reaches the VARTHR register threshold, a dedicated interrupt is

triggered. The sign of each phase reactive power can be read in

the PHSIGN register. Bit 7 (REVRPSEL) in the ACCMODE

register sets the type of reactive power being monitored. When

REVRPSEL is 0, the default value, the total reactive power is

monitored. When REVRPSEL is 1, then the fundamental

reactive power is monitored.

•

The first stage is conducted inside the DSP: every 125 µs

(8 kHz frequency), the instantaneous phase total reactive

or fundamental power is accumulated into an internal

register. When a threshold is reached, a pulse is generated

at the processor port and the threshold is subtracted from

the internal register. The sign of the energy in this moment

is considered the sign of the reactive power (see the Sign of

Reactive Power Calculation section for details).

•

The second stage is performed outside the DSP and consists

in accumulating the pulses generated by the processor into

internal 32-bit accumulation registers. The content of these

registers is transferred to the var-hour registers (xVARH R and

xFVARHR) when these registers are accessed. AVARHR,

BVARHR, CVARHR, AFWAT THR, BFWATTHR, and

CFWATTHR represent phase fundamental reactive powers.

Bits[12:10] (REVRPC, REVRPB, and REVRPA, respectively)

in the STATUS0 register are set when a sign change occurs in

the power selected by Bit 7 (REVRPSEL) in the ACCMODE

register.

Figure 63 from the Active Energy Calculation section explains

this process. The VARTHR 48-bit signed register contains the

threshold and it is introduced by the user. It is common for both

total and fundamental phase reactive powers. Its value depends

on how much energy is assigned to one LSB of var-hour

registers. When a derivative of reactive energy (varh) of [10ⁿ

varh], where n is an integer, is desired as one LSB of the

xVARHR register; then, the xVARTHR register can be computed

using the following equation:

Bits[6:4] (CVA RSIGN , BVA RSIGN, and AVARSIGN, respectively)

in the PHSIGN register are set simultaneously with the REVRPC,

REVRPB, and REVRPA bits. They indicate the sign of the reactive

power. When they are 0, the reactive power is positive. When

they are 1, the reactive power is negative.

Bit REVRPx of the STATUS0 register and Bit xVARSIGN in the

PHSIGN register refer to the reactive power of Phase x, the

power type being selected by Bit REVRPSEL in ACCMODE

Integration Time Under A Steady Load

In this mode, the ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 transfer the

reactive energy accumulated in the 32-bit internal accumulation

registers into the xVARHR or xFVARHR registers after an

integral number of line cycles, as shown in Figure 67. The

number of half line cycles is specified in the LINECYC register.

The discrete time sample period (T) for the accumulation register

is 125 µs (8 kHz frequency). With full-scale pure sinusoidal signals

on the analog inputs and a 90° phase difference between the vol-

tage and the current signal (the largest possible reactive power),

the average word value representing the reactive power is PMAX =

33,516,139 = 0x1FF6A6B. If the VARTHR threshold is set at the

PMAX level, this means the DSP generates a pulse that is added

at the var-hour registers every 125 µs.

The line cycle reactive energy accumulation mode is activated by

setting Bit 1 (LVAR) in the LCYCMODE register. The total reactive

energy accumulated over an integer number of half line cycles

or zero crossings is available in the var-hour accumulation registers

after the number of zero crossings specified in the LINECYC reg-

ister is detected. When using the line cycle accumulation mode,

Bit 6 (RSTREAD) of the LCYCMODE register should be set to

Logic 0 because a read with the reset of var-hour registers is not

available in this mode.

The maximum value that can be stored in the var-hour

accumulation register before it overflows is 2³¹− 1 or

0x7FFFFFFF. The integration time is calculated as

Time = 0x7FFF,FFFF × 125 μs = 74 hr 33 min 55 sec (38)

The reactive power accumulated in each var-hour accumulation

Bits[5:4] (CONSEL[1:0]) in the ACCMODE register, in correlation

with the watt-hour registers. The different configurations are

mode or the sign adjusted mode function of VARACC[1:0]. See

the Energy-to-Frequency Conversion section for details.

Phase A, Phase B, and Phase C zero crossings are, respectively,

included when counting the number of half line cycles by setting

Bits[5:3] (ZXSEL[x]) in the LCYCMODE register. Any combi-

for counting the zero crossing. Select only one phase at a time

for inclusion in the zero-crossings count during calibration.

Line Cycle Reactive Energy Accumulation Mode

As mentioned in the Line Cycle Active Energy Accumulation

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 store the instan-

taneous phase apparent powers into the AVA, BVA, and CVA

registers. Their expression is

Apparent power is defined as the maximum power that can be

delivered to a load. One way to obtain the apparent power is by

called the arithmetic apparent power)

where:

V_FS, I_FSare the rms values of the phase voltage and current when

the ADC inputs are at full scale.

V rms and I rms are the rms voltage and current, respectively.

PMAX = 33,516,139, the instantaneous power computed when

the ADC inputs are at full scale and in phase.

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 compute the

arithmetic apparent power on each phase. Figure 68 illustrates

the signal processing in each phase for the calculation of the

apparent power in the ADE78xx. Because V rms and I rms con-

tain all harmonic information, the apparent power computed by

the ADE78xx is total apparent power. The ADE7878 does not

compute fundamental apparent power because it does not measure

the rms values of the fundamental voltages and currents.

The xVA[23:0] waveform registers may be accessed using

various serial ports. Refer to the Waveform Sampling Mode

section for more details.

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 can compute the

apparent power in an alternative way by multiplying the phase

rms current by an rms voltage introduced externally. See the

Apparent Power Calculation Using VNOM section for details.

Apparent Power Gain Calibration

As stated in the Current Waveform Gain Registers, the serial

ports of the ADE78xx work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit words. Similar

to the register presented in Figure 34, the VNOM 24-bit signed

register is accessed as a 32-bit register with the eight MSBs

padded with 0s.

The average apparent power result in each phase can be scaled

by 100% by writing to one of the phase’s VAGAIN 24-bit registers

(AVAGAIN, BVAGAIN, or CVAG AIN). The VAGAIN registers

are twos complement, signed registers and have a resolution of

2⁻²³/LSB. The function of the xVAGAIN registers is expressed

mathematically as

Similar to active and reactive powers, the ADE7854/ADE7858/

ADE7868/ADE7878 achieve the integration of the apparent power

signal in two stages (see Figure 68). The first stage is conducted

inside the DSP: every 125 µs (8 kHz frequency), the instanta-

neous phase apparent power is accumulated into an internal

register. When a threshold is reached, a pulse is generated at the

processor port and the threshold is subtracted from the internal

register. The second stage is conducted outside the DSP and

consists of accumulating the pulses generated by the processor

into internal 32-bit accumulation registers. The content of these

registers is transferred to the VA-hour registers, xVAHR, when

these registers are accessed. Figure 63 from the Active Energy

Calculation section illustrates this process. The VATHR 48-bit

register contains the threshold. Its value depends on how much

energy is assigned to one LSB of the VA-hour registers. When a

derivative of apparent energy (VAh) of [10ⁿVAh], where n is an

integer, is desired as one LSB of the xVAHR register; then, the

xVATHR register can be computed using the following equation:

V rms×I rms × 1 +



2²³





The output is scaled by –50% by writing 0xC00000 to the

xVAGAIN registers, and it is increased by +50% by writing

0x400000 to them. These registers calibrate the apparent power

(or energy) calculation in the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/

ADE7878 for each phase.

As previously stated in the Current Waveform Gain Registers

section, the serial ports of the ADE78xx work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit

words and the DSP works on 28 bits. Similar to registers presented

in Figure 33, the AVAGAIN , BVAGAIN , and CVAGAIN 24-bit

registers are accessed as 32-bit registers with the four MSBs

padded with 0s and sign extended to 28 bits.

Apparent Power Offset Calibration

Each rms measurement includes an offset compensation register

to calibrate and eliminate the dc component in the rms value

(see the Root Mean Square Measurement section). The voltage

and current rms values are multiplied together in the apparent

power signal processing. As no additional offsets are created in

the multiplication of the rms values, there is no specific offset

compensation in the apparent power signal processing. The offset

compensation of the apparent power measurement in each phase is

accomplished by calibrating each individual rms measurement.

PMAX × f_s× 3600 ×10ⁿ

VATHR =

V_FS× I_FS

where:

PMAX = 33,516,139 = 0x1FF6A6B, the instantaneous power

computed when the ADC inputs are at full scale.

f_S= 8 kHz, the frequency with which the DSP computes the

instantaneous power.

V_FS, I_FSare the rms values of phase voltages and currents when

the ADC inputs are at full scale.

Apparent Power Calculation Using VNOM

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 can compute the

apparent power by multiplying the phase rms current by an rms

voltage introduced externally in the VNOM 24-bit signed register.

VATHR is a 48-bit register. As previously stated in the Current

Waveform Gain Registers section, the serial ports of the ADE7854/

ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit words.

Similar to the WTHR register presented in Figure 64, the VATHR

register is accessed as two 32-bit registers (VATHR1 and VATHR0),

each having eight MSBs padded with 0s.

When one of Bits[13:11] (VNOMCEN, VNOMBEN, or

VNOMAEN) in the COMPMODE register is set to 1, the

apparent power in the corresponding phase (Phase x for

VNOMxEN) is computed in this way. When the VNOMxEN

bits are cleared to 0, the default value, then the arithmetic

apparent power is computed.

This discrete time accumulation or summation is equivalent to

integration in continuous time following the description in

Equation 44.

The VNOM register contains a number determined by V, the

desired rms voltage, and V_FS, the rms value of the phase voltage

when the ADC inputs are at full scale:

ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

Data Sheet

In the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878, the phase

apparent powers are accumulated in the AVAHR , BVAH R, and

CVAHR 32-bit signed registers. The apparent energy register

content can roll over to full-scale negative (0x80000000) and

continue increasing in value when the apparent power is

positive.

The maximum value that can be stored in the xVAHR

accumulation register before it overflows is 2³¹− 1 or

0x7FFFFFFF. The integration time is calculated as

Time = 0x7FFF,FFFF × 125 μs = 74 hr 33 min 55 sec (45)

Energy Accumulation Mode

The apparent power accumulated in each accumulation register

depends on the configuration of Bits[5:4] (CONSEL[1:0]) in the

ACCMODE register. The various configurations are described

in Table 20.

Bit 4 (VAEHF) in the STATUS0 register is set when Bit 30 of one of

the xVAHR registers changes, signifying one of these registers is

half full. As the apparent power is always positive and the xVAHR

registers are signed, the VA-hour registers become half full when

they increment from 0x3FFFFFFF to 0x4000 0000. Interrupts

attached to Bit VAEHF in the STATUS0 register can be enabled by

Setting Bit 6 (RSTREAD) of the LCYCMODE register enables

a read-with-reset for all xVAHR accumulation registers, that is,

the registers are reset to 0 after a read operation.

Line Cycle Apparent Energy Accumulation Mode

As described in the Line Cycle Active Energy Accumulation

Mode section, in line cycle energy accumulation mode, the

energy accumulation can be synchronized to the voltage channel

zero crossings allowing apparent energy to be accumulated over an

integral number of half line cycles. In this mode, the ADE7854/

ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878transfer the apparent energy

accumulated in the 32-bit internal accumulation registers into

the xVAHR registers after an integral number of line cycles, as

shown in Figure 69. The number of half line cycles is specified

in the LINECYC register.

Integration Time Under Steady Load

The discrete time sample period for the accumulation register is

125 µs (8 kHz frequency). With full-scale pure sinusoidal signals

on the analog inputs, the average word value representing the

apparent power is PMAX. If the VATHR threshold register is set

at the PMAX level, this means the DSP generates a pulse that

is added at the xVAHR registers every 125 µs.

ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

The line cycle apparent energy accumulation mode is activated

by setting Bit 2 (LVA) in the LCYCMODE register. The apparent

energy accumulated over an integer number of zero crossings is

written to the xVAHR accumulation registers after the number

of zero crossings specified in LINECYC register is detected. When

using the line cycle accumulation mode, set Bit 6 (RSTREAD) of

the LCYCMODE register to Logic 0 because a read with the reset

of xVAHR registers is not available in this mode.

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 contain a high

speed data capture (HSDC) port that is specially designed to

provide fast access to the waveform sample registers. Read the

HSDC Interface section for more details.

As stated in the Current Waveform Gain Registers section, the

serial ports of the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit words. All registers listed in Table 21

are transmitted signed extended from 24 bits to 32 bits (see

Figure 35).

Phase A, Phase B, and Phase C zero crossings are, respectively,

included when counting the number of half line cycles by setting

Bits[5:3] (ZXSEL[x]) in the LCYCMODE register. Any combi-

nation of the zero crossings from all three phases can be used

for counting the zero crossing. Select only one phase at a time

for inclusion in the zero-crossings count during calibration.

ENERGY-TO-FREQUENCY CONVERSION

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 provide three

frequency output pins: CF1, CF2, and CF3. The CF3 pin is

multiplexed with the HSCLK pin of the HSDC interface. When

HSDC is enabled, the CF3 functionality is disabled at the pin.

CF1 and CF2 pins are always available. After initial calibration

at manufacturing, the manufacturer or end customer verifies

the energy meter calibration. One convenient way to verify the

meter calibration is to provide an output frequency propor-

tional to the active, reactive, or apparent powers under steady

load conditions. This output frequency can provide a simple,

single-wire, optically isolated interface to external calibration

equipment. Figure 70 illustrates the energy-to-frequency

conversion in the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878.

For details on setting the LINECYC register and Bit 5 (LENERGY)

in the MASK0 interrupt mask register associated with the line

cycle accumulation mode, see the Line Cycle Active Energy

Accumulation Mode section.

WAVEFORM SAMPLING MODE

The waveform samples of the current and voltage waveform,

the active, reactive, and apparent power outputs are stored

every 125 µs (8 kHz rate) into 24-bit signed registers that can be

accessed through various serial ports of the ADE7854/ADE7858/

ADE7868/ADE7878. Table 21 provides a list of registers and their

descriptions.

The DSP computes the instantaneous values of all phase powers:

total active, fundamental active, total reactive, fundamental

reactive, and apparent. The process in which the energy is sign

accumulated in various xWATTHR, xVARHR, and xVAHR

registers has already been described in the energy calculation

sections: Active Energy Calculation, Reactive Energy Calculation,

and Apparent Energy Calculation. In the energy-to-frequency

conversion process, the instantaneous powers generate signals

at the frequency output pins (CF1, CF2, and CF3). One digital-

to-frequency converter is used for every CFx pin. Every converter

sums certain phase powers and generates a signal proportional

to the sum. Two sets of bits decide what powers are converted.

converter. When cleared to 0, Phase A power is not included.

The TERMSELx[1] bits manage Phase B, and the TERMSELx[2]

bits manage Phase C. Setting all TERMSELx bits to 1 means all

3-phase powers are added at the CFx converter. Clearing all

TERMSELx bits to 0 means no phase power is added and no

CF pulse is generated.

Bit 17 (DREADY) in the STATUS0 register can be used to

I²C or SPI serial ports. An interrupt attached to the flag can be

enabled by setting Bit 17 (DREADY) in the MASK0 register.

By default, the TERMSELx bits are all 1 and the CF1SEL bits are

000, the CF2SEL bits are 001, and the CF3SEL bits are 010. This

means that by default, the CF1 digital-to-frequency converter

produces signals proportional to the sum of all 3-phase total

active powers, CF2 produces signals proportional to total

reactive powers, and CF3 produces signals proportional to

apparent powers.

The pulse output is active low and preferably connected to an

LED, as shown in Figure 71.

V

DD

CFx PIN

Similar to the energy accumulation process, the energy-to-

frequency conversion is accomplished in two stages. In the first

stage, the instantaneous phase powers obtained from the DSP at

the 8 kHz rate are shifted left by seven bits and then accumulate

into an internal register at a 1 MHz rate. When a threshold is

reached, a pulse is generated and the threshold is subtracted

from the internal register. The sign of the energy in this moment

is considered the sign of the sum of phase powers (see the Sign

of Sum-of-Phase Powers in the CFx Datapath section for details).

The threshold is the same threshold used in various active,

reactive, and apparent energy accumulators in the DSP, such

as the WTHR, VARTHR, or VATHR registers, except for being

shifted left by seven bits. The advantage of accumulating the

instantaneous powers at the 1 MHz rate is that the ripple at the

CFx pins is greatly diminished.

Figure 71. CFx Pin Recommended Connection

Bits[11:9] (CF3DIS, CF2DIS, and CF1DIS) of the CFMODE

register decide if the frequency converter output is generated

at the CF3, CF2, or CF1 pin. When Bit CFxDIS is set to 1 (the

default value), the CFx pin is disabled and the pin stays high.

When Bit CFxDIS is cleared to 0, the corresponding CFx pin

output generates an active low signal.

Bits[16:14] (CF3, CF2, CF1) in the Interrupt Mask Register MASK0

manage the CF3, CF2, and CF1 related interrupts. When the

CFx bits are set, whenever a high-to-low transition at the corres-

IRQ0

ponding frequency converter output occurs, an interrupt

is triggered and a status bit in the STATUS0 register is set to 1.

The interrupt is available even if the CFx output is not enabled

by the CFxDIS bits in the CFMODE register.

The second stage consists of the frequency divider by the

CFxDEN 16-bit unsigned registers. The values of CFxDEN

depend on the meter constant (MC), measured in impulses/kWh

and how much energy is assigned to one LSB of various energy

registers: xWATTHR, xVARHR, and so forth. Supposing a deri-

vative of wh [10ⁿwh], n a positive or negative integer, is desired

as one LSB of xWAT THR register. Then, CFxDEN is as follows:

Synchronizing Energy Registers with CFx Outputs

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 contain a feature

that allows synchronizing the content of phase energy accu-

mulation registers with the generation of a CFx pulse. When

a high-to-low transition at one frequency converter output

occurs, the content of all internal phase energy registers that

relate to the power being output at CFx pin is latched into hour

registers and then resets to 0. See Table 22 for the list of registers

that are latched based on the CFxSEL[2:0] bits in the CFMODE

register. All 3-phase registers are latched independent of the

TERMSELx bits of the COMPMODE register. The process is

shown in Figure 72 for CF1SEL[2:0] = 010 (apparent powers

contribute at the CF1 pin) and CFCYC = 2.

10³

CFxDEN =

(46)

MC[imp/kwh]×10ⁿ

The derivative of wh must be chosen in such a way to obtain a

CFxDEN register content greater than 1. If CFxDEN = 1, then

the CFx pin stays active low for only 1 µs, therefore, avoid this

number. The frequency converter cannot accommodate fractional

results; the result of the division must be rounded to the nearest

integer. If CFxDEN is set equal to 0, then the ADE78xx considers it

to be equal to 1.

The CFCYC 8-bit unsigned register contains the number of high to

low transitions at the frequency converter output between two

CF Outputs for Various Accumulation Modes

Bits[1:0] (WATTACC[1:0]) in the ACCMODE register deter-

mine the accumulation modes of the total active and fundamental

powers when signals proportional to the active powers are chosen

at the CFx pins (the CFxSEL[2:0] bits in the CFMODE register

equal 000 or 011). When WATTACC[1:0] = 00 (the default value),

the active powers are sign accumulated before entering the energy-

to-frequency converter. Figure 73 shows how signed active power

accumulation works. In this mode, the CFx pulses synchronize

perfectly with the active energy accumulated in xWAT TH R regis-

ters because the powers are sign accumulated in both data paths.

The no load condition is defined in metering equipment standards

as occurring when the voltage is applied to the meter and no cur-

the meter, the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878contain

three separate no load detection circuits: one related to the total

active and reactive powers (ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878

(ADE7878 only), and one related to the apparent powers.

Sign of Sum-of-Phase Powers in the CFx Datapath

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 have sign

detection circuitry for the sum of phase powers that are used in

the CFx datapath. As seen in the beginning of the Energy-to-

Frequency Conversion section, the energy accumulation in the

CFx datapath is executed in two stages. Every time a sign change is

detected in the energy accumulation at the end of the first stage,

that is, after the energy accumulated into the accumulator

reaches one of the WTHR, VARTHR, or VATHR thresholds, a

dedicated interrupt can be triggered synchronously with the

corresponding CFx pulse. The sign of each sum can be read in

the PHSIGN register.

are not accumulated, and no CFx pulses are generated based on

CHECKSUM REGISTER

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 have a checksum

32-bit register, CHECKSUM, that ensures certain very important

configuration registers maintain their desired value during

Normal Power Mode PSM0.

g_i, i = 0, 1, 2, …, 31 are the coefficients of the generating

polynomial defined by the IEEE802.3 standard as follows:

G(x) = x³²+ x²⁶+ x²³+ x²²+ x¹⁶+ x¹²+ x¹¹+ x¹⁰+ x⁸+ x⁷+

The registers covered by this register are MASK0, MASK1,

COMPMODE, gain, CFMODE, CF1DEN, CF2DEN, CF3DEN,

CONFIG, MMODE, ACCMODE, LCYCMODE, HSDC_CFG,

and another six 8-bit reserved internal registers that always have

default values. The ADE78xx computes the cyclic redundancy

check (CRC) based on the IEEE802.3 standard. The registers

are introduced one-by-one into a linear feedback shift register

(LFSR) based generator starting with the least significant bit (as

shown in Figure 77). The 32-bit result is written in the

CHECKSUM register. After power-up or a hardware/software

reset, the CRC is computed on the default values of the registers

giving the results presented in the Table 23.

Equation 51, Equation 52, and Equation 53 must be repeated for

j = 1, 2, …, 256. The value written into the CHECKSUM register

contains the Bit b_i(256), i = 0, 1, …, 31. The value of the CRC,

after the bits from the reserved internal register have passed

through LFSR, is obtained at Step j = 48 and is presented in the

Table 23.

Two different approaches can be followed in using the CHECK-

SUM register. One is to compute the CRC based on the relations

(47) to (53) and then compare the value against the CHECKSUM

register. Another is to periodically read the CHECKSUM register.

If two consecutive readings differ, it can be assumed that one

of the registers has changed value and therefore, the ADE7854,

ADE7858, ADE7868, or ADE7878 has changed configuration.

The recommended response is to initiate a hardware/software

reset that sets the values of all registers to the default, including

the reserved ones, and then reinitialize the configuration registers.

3. On entering the ISR, disable all interrupts using the global

interrupt mask bit. At this point, the MCU external interrupt

flag can be cleared to capture interrupt events that occur

during the current ISR.

4. When the MCU interrupt flag is cleared, a read from

STATUSx, the interrupt status register, is carried out. The

interrupt status register content is used to determine the

source of the interrupt(s) and, hence, the appropriate

action to be taken.

By default, all interrupts are disabled. However, the RSTDONE

interrupt is an exception. This interrupt can never be masked

(disabled) and, therefore, Bit 15 (RSTDONE) in the MASK1

ends. To cancel the status flag, the STATUS1 register has to be

written with Bit 15 (RSTDONE) set to 1.

Certain interrupts are used in conjunction with other status

After the serial port choice is completed, it needs to be locked.

Consequently, the active port remains in use until a hardware

reset is executed in PSM0 normal mode or until a power-down.

If I²C is the active serial port, Bit 1 (I2C_LOCK) of the CONFIG2

SERIAL INTERFACES

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 have three serial

port interfaces: one fully licensed I²C interface, one serial

peripheral interface (SPI), and one high speed data capture port

(HSDC). As the SPI pins are multiplexed with some of the pins

of the I²C and HSDC ports, the ADE78xx accepts two confi-

gurations: one using the SPI port only and one using the I²C

port in conjunction with the HSDC port.

SS

toggling of the pin and an eventual switch into using the SPI

port is no longer possible. If the SPI is the active serial port, any

write to the CONFIG2 register locks the port. From this moment,

a switch into using the I²C port is no longer possible. Once locked,

the serial port choice is maintained when the ADE78xx changes

PSMx power modes.

The functionality of the ADE78xx is accessible via several on-

chip registers. The contents of these registers can be updated or

read using either the I²C or SPI interfaces. The HSDC port provides

The ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 supports a fully

licensed I²C interface. The I²C interface is implemented as a full

hardware slave. SDA is the data I/O pin, and SCL is the serial

clock. These two pins are shared with the MOSI and SCLK pins

of the on-chip SPI interface. The maximum serial clock frequency

supported by this interface is 400 kHz.

SS

manipulation of the /HSA pin can be accomplished in two

SS

ways. First, use the /HSA pin of the master device (that is, the

microcontroller) as a regular I/O pin and toggle it three times.

Second, execute three SPI write operations to a location in the

address space that is not allocated to a specific ADE78xx register

(for example 0xEBFF, where eight bit writes can be executed).

The two pins used for data transfer, SDA and SCL, are confi-

gured in a wire-AND’e d format that allows arbitration in a

multimaster system.

The transfer sequence of an I²C system consists of a master device

initiating a transfer by generating a start condition while the bus

is idle. The master transmits the address of the slave device and

the direction of the data transfer in the initial address transfer. If

the slave acknowledges, the data transfer is initiated. This con-

tinues until the master issues a stop condition, and the bus

becomes idle.

SS

These writes allow the /HSA pin to toggle three times. See the

SPI Write Operation section for details on the write protocol

involved.

is applied at the SCLK logic input. All data transfer operations

synchronize to the serial clock. Data shifts into the ADE78xx at

the MOSI logic input on the falling edge of SCLK and the

ADE78xx samples it on the rising edge of SCLK. Data shifts out

of the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 at the MISO

logic output on a falling edge of SCLK and can be sampled by

the master device on the raising edge of SCLK. The most

significant bit of the word is shifted in and out first. The

maximum serial clock frequency supported by this interface is

2.5 MHz. MISO stays in high impedance when no data is

transmitted from the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878.

Data Sheet

HSDC Interface

Bit 0 (HCLK) in the HSDC_CFG register determines the serial

clock frequency of the HSDC communication. When HCLK is

0 (the default value), the clock frequency is 8 MHz. When HCLK

is 1, the clock frequency is 4 MHz. A bit of data is transmitted

for every HSCLK high-to-low transition. The slave device that

receives data from HSDC samples the HSD line on the low-to-

high transition of HSCLK.

The high speed data capture (HSDC) interface is disabled after

default. It can be used only if the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/

ADE7878 is configured with an I²C interface. The SPI interface

of the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 cannot be used

simultaneously with HSDC.

Bit 6 (HSDCEN) in the CONFIG register activates HSDC when

set to 1. If Bit HSDCEN is cleared to 0, the default value, the

HSDC interface is disabled. Setting Bit HSDCEN to 1 when SPI

is in use does not have any effect. HSDC is an interface for

sending to an external device (usually a microprocessor or a

DSP) up to sixteen 32-bit words. The words represent the

instantaneous values of the phase currents and voltages, neutral

current, and active, reactive, and apparent powers. The registers

being transmitted include IAW V, VAW V, I BW V, V BW V, IC W V,

VC W V, INWV, AVA, BVA, CVA, AWAT T, BWAT T, CWAT T,

AVAR, BVAR, and CVAR. All are 24-bit registers that are sign

extended to 32-bits (see Figure 35 for details). In the case of

ADE7854 and ADE7858, the INWV register is not available. In

its place, the HSDC transmits one 32-bit word always equal

to 0. In addition, the AVA R, BVA R, and C VAR registers are not

available in the ADE7854. In their place, the HSDC transmits

three 32-bit words that are always equal to 0.

The words can be transmitted as 32-bit packages or as 8-bit

packages. When Bit 1 (HSIZE) in the HSDC_CFG register is 0 (the

default value), the words are transmitted as 32-bit packages. When

Bit HSIZE is 1, the registers are transmitted as 8-bit packages. The

HSDC interface transmits the words MSB first.

Bit 2 (HGAP) introduces a gap of seven HSCLK cycles between

packages when Bit 2 (HGAP) is set to 1. When Bit HGAP is cleared

to 0 (the default value), no gap is introduced between packages

and the communication time is shortest. In this case, HSIZE

does not have any influence on the communication and a data

bit is placed on the HSD line with every HSCLK high-to-low

transition.

Bits[4:3] (HXFER[1:0]) decide how many words are transmitted.

When HXFER[1:0] is 00, the default value, then all 16 words are

transmitted. When HXFER[1:0] is 01, only the words representing

the instantaneous values of phase and neutral currents and phase

voltages are transmitted in the following order: IAWV, VAWV,

IBWV, VBWV, ICWV, VCWV, and one 32-bit word that is always

equal to INWV. When HXFER[1:0] is 10, only the instantaneous

values of phase powers are transmitted in the following order:

AVA, BVA, CVA, AWATT, BWATT, CWAT T, AVA R, BVAR , and

CVAR. The value, 11, for HXFER[1:0] is reserved and writing it is

equivalent to writing 00, the default value.

HSDC can be interfaced with SPI or similar interfaces. HSDC is

always a master of the communication and consists of three

pins: HSA, HSD, and HSCLK. HSA represents the select signal.

It stays active low or high when a word is transmitted and it is

usually connected to the select pin of the slave. HSD sends data

to the slave and it is usually connected to the data input pin of

the slave. HSCLK is the serial clock line that is generated by the

ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 and it is usually con-

nected to the serial clock input of the slave. Figure 86 shows the

connections between the ADE78xx HSDC and slave devices

containing an SPI interface.

Bit 5 (HSAPOL) determines the polarity of HSA function of the

SS

/HSA pin during communication. When HSAPOL is 0 (the

default value), HSA is active low during the communication.

This means that HSA stays high when no communication is in

progress. When a communication is executed, HSA is low when

the 32-bit or 8-bit packages are transferred, and is high during

pin is active high during the communication. This means that

HSA stays low when no communication is in progress. When a

communication is executed, HSA is high when the 32-bit or

8-bit packages are transferred, and is low during the gaps.

Figure 86. Connecting the ADE78xx HSDC with an SPI

The HSDC communication is managed by the HSDC_CFG

register (see Table 53). It is recommended to set the HSDC_CFG

register to the desired value before enabling the port using Bit 6

(HSDCEN) in the CONFIG register. In this way, the state of

various pins belonging to the HSDC port do not take levels incon-

sistent with the desired HSDC behavior. After a hardware reset

Bits[7:6] of the HSDC_CFG register are reserved. Any value

written into these bits does not have any consequence on HSDC

behavior.

Figure 87 shows the HSDC transfer protocol for HGAP = 0,

HXFER[1:0] = 00 and HSAPOL = 0. Note that the HSDC

interface sets a data bit on the HSD line every HSCLK high-

to-low transition and the value of Bit HSIZE is irrelevant.

Figure 88 shows the HSDC transfer protocol for HSIZE = 0,

HGAP = 1, HXFER[1:0] = 00, and HSAPOL = 0. Note that the

HSDC interface introduces a seven-HSCLK cycles gap between

every 32-bit word.

Table 24 lists the time it takes to execute an HSDC data transfer

for all HSDC_CFG register settings. For some settings, the

transfer time is less than 125 μs (8 kHz), the waveform sample

registers update rate. This means the HSDC port transmits data

every sampling cycle. For settings in which the transfer time is

greater than 125 μs, the HSDC port transmits data only in the

first of two consecutive 8 kHz sampling cycles. This means it

transmits registers at an effective rate of 4 kHz.

Figure 89 shows the HSDC transfer protocol for HSIZE = 1,

HGAP = 1, HXFER[1:0] = 00, and HSAPOL = 0. Note that the

HSDC interface introduces a seven-HSCLK cycles gap between

every 8-bit word.

with its surrounding circuitry: decoupling capacitors at pins

VDD, AVDD, DVDD and REF_in/out, the 16.384 MHz crystal and

its load capacitors. The rest of the pins are dependent on the

particular application and are not shown here. The ADE7854,

ADE7858 and ADE7868 have an identical approach to the

decoupling capacitors, the crystal and its load capacitors.

An energy meter is usually characterized by the nominal

current I_n, nominal voltage V_n, nominal frequency f_n, and the

meter constant MC.

To quickly setup the ADE7878, execute the following steps:

1. Start the DSP by setting Run=1.

2. Select the PGA gains in the phase currents, voltages, and

neutral current channels: Bits [2:0] (PGA1), Bits [5:3]

FUNCTIONALITY ISSUES

Table 25. Offset RMS Registers Cannot be Set to Negative Values [er001, Version = 2 Silicon]

Background

When the AIRMSOS, AVRMSOS, BIRMSOS, BVRMSOS, CIRMSOS, CVRMSOS, and NIRMSOS registers are set to a negative

value, for sufficiently small inputs, the argument of the square root used in the rms data path may become negative. In

this case, the corresponding AIRMS, AVRMS, BIRMS, BVRMS, CIRMS, or CVRMS rms register is automatically set to 0.

Issue

Negative values for the AIRMSOS, AVRMSOS, BIRMSOS, BVRMSOS, CIRMSOS, CVRMSOS, and NIRMSOS registers are not

supported in the silicon version identified by the version register being equal to 2.

Workaround

Do not use negative values for the AIRMSOS, AVRMSOS, BIRMSOS, BVRMSOS, CIRMSOS, CVRMSOS, and NIRMSOS

registers.

Table 26. Values Written to the CF1DEN, CF2DEN, CF3DEN, SAGLVL, and ZXTOUT Registers May Not Be Immediately Used By

ADE7854, ADE7858, ADE7868, ADE7878 [er002, Version = 2 Silicon]

Background

Usually, the CF1DEN, CF2DEN, CF3DEN, SAGLVL, and ZXTOUT registers initialize immediately after power-up or after a

hardware/software reset. After the RUN register is set to 1, the energy-to-frequency converter (for CF1DEN, CF2DEN, and CF3DEN), the

phase voltage sag detector (for SAGLVL), and the zero-crossing timeout circuit (for ZXTOUT) use these values immediately.

Issue

After the CF1DEN register is initialized with a new value after power-up or a hardware/software reset, the new value may be

delayed and, therefore, not immediately available for use by the energy-to-frequency converter. It is, however, used by the

converter after the first high-to-low transition is triggered at t the CF1 pin using the CF1DEN default value (0x0).

CF2DEN and CF3DEN registers present similar behavior at the CF2 and CF3 pins, respectively. CF1DEN, CF2DEN and CF3DEN

above behavior has been corrected in Version = 4 silicon.

After the SAGLVL register is initialized with a new value after power-up or a hardware or software reset, the new value may be

delayed and not available for immediate use by the phase voltage sag detector. However, it is used by the detector after at least

one phase voltage rises above 10% of the full-scale input at the phase voltage ADCs.

After the ZXTOUT register is initialized with a new value after power-up or a hardware or software reset, the new value may be

delayed and not available for immediate use by the zero-crossing timeout circuit. However, the circuit does use the new value

after at least one phase voltage rises above 10% of the full-scale input at the phase voltage ADCs.

Workaround

If the behavior outlined in the Issue row does not conflict with the meter specification, then the new values of the CF1DEN,

CF2DEN, CF3DEN, SAGLVL, and ZXTOUT registers may be written one time only.

If the behavior is not acceptable, write the new value into the CF1DEN, CF2DEN, and CF3DEN registers eight consecutive times.

This ensures the probability of the new value not being considered immediately by the energy-to-frequency converter becomes

lower than 0.2 ppm.

Usually, at least one of the phase voltages is greater than 10% of full scale after power-up or after a hardware/software reset. If

this cannot be guaranteed, then the SAGLVL and ZXTOUT registers should also be written eight consecutive times to reduce the

probability of not being considered immediately by the phase voltage sag detector and zero-crossing timeout circuit.

Related Issues None.

Table 27. The Read-Only RMS Registers May Show the Wrong Value [er003, Version = 2 Silicon]

Background

The read-only rms registers (AVRMS, BVRMS, CVRMS, AIRMS, BIRMS, CIRMS, and NIRMS) can be read without restrictions at

any time.

Issue

The fixed function DSP of ADE7854, ADE7858, ADE7868, and ADE7878 computes all the powers and rms values in a loop

with a period of 125 µs (8 kHz frequency). If two rms registers are accessed (read) consecutively, the value of the second

register may be corrupted. Consequently, the apparent power computed during that 125 µs cycle is also corrupted. The

rms calculation recovers in the next 125 µs cycle, and all the rms and apparent power values compute correctly.

The issue appears independent of the communication type, SPI or I²C, when the time between the start of two

consecutive rms readings is lower than 265 µs. The issue affects only the rms registers; all of the other registers of

ADE7854, ADE7858, ADE7868, and ADE7878 can be accessed without any restrictions.

Workaround

The rms registers can be read one at a time with at least 265 µs between the start of the readings. DREADY interrupt at the

IRQ0

pin can be used to time one rms register reading every three consecutive DREADY interrupts. This ensures 375 µs

between the start of the rms readings.

Alternatively, the rms registers can be read interleaved with readings of other registers that are not affected by this

restriction as long as the time between the start of two consecutive rms register readings is 265 μs.

Related Issues None.

Table 28. To Obtain Best Accuracy Performance, Internal Setting Must Be Changed [er004, Version = 2 Silicon]

Background

Issue

Workaround

Internal default settings provide best accuracy performance for ADE7854, ADE7858, ADE7868, and ADE7878.

It was found that if a different setting is used, the accuracy performance can be improved.

To enable a new setting for this internal register, execute two consecutive 8-bit register write operations:

The first write operation: 0xAD is written to Address 0xE7FE.

The second write operation: 0x01 is written to Address 0xE7E2.

The write operations must be executed consecutively without any other read/write operation in between. As a

verification that the value was captured correctly, a simple 8-bit read of Address 0xE7E2 should show the 0x01 value.

Related Issues None.

ADE7868, and ADE7878 [er005, Version = 4 and Version = 5 Silicons]

Background

Usually, the SAGLVL and ZXTOUT registers initialize immediately after power-up or after a hardware/software reset. After

the run register is set to 1, the phase voltage sag detector (for SAGLVL), and the zero-crossing timeout circuit (for ZXTOUT)

use these values immediately.

Issue

After the SAGLVL register is initialized with a new value after power-up or a hardware or software reset, the new value

may be delayed and not available for immediate use by the phase voltage sag detector. However, it is used by the

detector after at least one phase voltage rises above 10% of the full-scale input at the phase voltage ADCs.

After the ZXTOUT register is initialized with a new value after power-up or a hardware or software reset, the new value

may be delayed and not available for immediate use by the zero-crossing timeout circuit. However, the circuit does use

the new value after at least one phase voltage rises above 10% of the full-scale input at the phase voltage ADCs.

Workaround

Usually, at least one of the phase voltages is greater than 10% of full scale after power-up or after a hardware/software

reset. If this cannot be guaranteed, then the SAGLVL and ZXTOUT registers should be written eight consecutive times to

reduce the probability of not being considered immediately by the phase voltage sag detector and zero-crossing timeout

circuit below 0.2 ppm.

EXTREFEN

0

When this bit is 0, it signifies that the internal voltage reference is used in the ADCs.

When this bit is 1, an external reference is connected to the Pin 17 REF_IN/OUT

.

I2C_LOCK

0

When this bit is 0, the SS/HSA pin can be toggled three times to activate the SPI port. If I²C is

the active serial port, this bit must be set to 1 to lock it in. From this moment on, spurious

toggling of the SS/HSA pin and an eventual switch into using the SPI port is no longer possible. If

SPI is the active serial port, any write to CONFIG2 register locks the port. From this moment

on, a switch into using I²C port is no longer possible. Once locked, the serial port choice is

maintained when the ADE7854/ADE7858/ADE7868/ADE7878 change PSMx power modes.
