ADE7518
POWER QUALITY MEASUREMENTS
Zero-Crossing Detection
Each ADE7518 has a zero-crossing detection circuit on the
voltage channel. This zero crossing is used to produce a zero-
crossing internal signal (ZX) and is used in calibration mode.
The zero-crossing is generated by default from the output of
LPF1. This filter has a low cutoff frequency and is intended for
50 Hz and 60 Hz systems. If needed, this filter can be disabled
to allow a higher frequency signal to be detected or to limit the
group delay of the detection. If the voltage input fundamental
frequency is below 60 Hz and a time delay in ZX detection is
acceptable, it is recommended to enable LPF1. Enabling LPF1
limits the variability in the ZX detection by eliminating the high
frequency components. Figure 42 shows how the zero-crossing
signal is generated.
The zero-crossing signal ZX is generated from the output of
LPF1 (bypassed or not). LPF1 has a single pole at 63.7 Hz (at
MCLK = 4.096 MHz). As a result, there is a phase lag between
the analog input signal V2 and the output of LPF1. The phase
lag response of LPF1 results in a time delay of approximately
2 ms (@ 60 Hz) between the zero crossing on the analog inputs
of the voltage channel and ZX detection.
The zero-crossing detection also drives the ZX flag in the Interrupt
Status 3 SFR (MIRQSTH, 0xDE). If the ZX bit in the Interrupt
Enable 3 SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB) is set, the 8052 core has a
pending ADE interrupt. The ADE interrupt stays active until
the ZX status bit is cleared (see the Energy Measurement
Interrupts section).
Zero-Crossing Timeout
The zero-crossing detection also has an associated timeout
register, ZXTOUT. This unsigned, 12-bit register is decremented
(1 LSB) every 160/MCLK seconds. The register is reset to its
user-programmed full-scale value every time a zero crossing is
detected on the voltage channel. The default power-on value in
this register is 0xFFF. If the internal register decrements to 0
before a zero crossing is detected in the Interrupt Status 3 SFR

ZX
(MIRQSTH, 0xDE) and the ZXTO bit in the Interrupt Enable 3
SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB) is set, the 8052 core has a pending
ADE interrupt.
The ADE interrupt stays active until the ZXTO status bit is
cleared (see the Energy Measurement Interrupts section). The
ZXTOUT register (Address 0x11) can be written to or read from
the 8052 by the user (see the energy measurement register list in
Table 30). The resolution of the register is 160/MCLK seconds
per LSB. Thus, the maximum delay for an interrupt is 0.16 sec
(1/MCLK × 2
Figure 43 shows the mechanism of the zero-crossing timeout
detection when the line voltage stays at a fixed dc level for more
than MCLK/160 × ZXTOUT seconds.
Period or Frequency Measurements
The ADE7518 provides the period or frequency measurement
of the line. The period or frequency measurement is selected
by clearing or setting the FREQSEL bit in the MODE2 register
(0x0C). The period/frequency register, PER_FREQ register
(0x0A), is an unsigned 16-bit register that is updated every
period. If LPF1 is enabled, a settling time of 1.8 seconds is
associated with this filter before the measurement is stable.
When the period measurement is selected, the measurement has a
2.44 μs/LSB (4.096 MHz/10) resolution, which represents 0.014%
when the line frequency is 60 Hz. When the line frequency is
60 Hz, the value of the period register is approximately 0d6827.
The length of the register enables the measurement of line
frequencies as low as 12.5 Hz. The period register is stable at
±1 LSB when the line is established and the measurement does
not change.
When the frequency measurement is selected, the measurement
has a 0.0625 Hz/LSB resolution when MCLK = 4.096 MHz,
which represents 0.104% when the line frequency is 60 Hz.
When the line frequency is 60 Hz, the value of the frequency
register is 0d960. The frequency register is stable at ±4 LSB when
the line is established and the measurement does not change.
