There is no correlation between the line signal frequency and the choice of PRE_SAMPS or SUM_CYCLES (even though when
SUM_CYCLES = 42 one set of SUM_CYCLES happens to sample a period of 16.6ms). Furthermore, sampling does not have to
start when the line voltage crosses the zero line.
Delay Compensation
When measuring the energy of a phase (i.e., Wh and VARh) in a service, the voltage and current for that phase must be
sampled at the same instant. Otherwise, the phase difference, Ф, introduces errors.

In traditional meter ICs, sampling is accomplished by using two A/D converters per phase (one for voltage and the other one
®
for current) controlled to sample simultaneously. Teridian’s Single-Converter Technology
, however, exploits the 32-bit signal
processing capability of its CE to implement “constant delay” all-pass filters. These all-pass filters correct for the conversion
time difference between the voltage and the corresponding current samples that are obtained with a single multiplexed A/D
converter.
The “constant delay” all-pass filters provide a broad-band delay β that is precisely matched to the difference in sample time
between the voltage and the current of a given phase. This digital filter does not affect the amplitude of the signal, but
provides a precisely controlled phase response. The delay compensation implemented in the CE aligns the voltage samples
with their corresponding current samples by routing the voltage samples through the all-pass filter, thus delaying the voltage
samples by β, resulting in the residual phase error β – Ф. The residual phase error is negligible, and is typically less than ±1.5
milli-degrees at 100Hz, thus it does not contribute to errors in the energy measurements.
