ADE7880

Voltage Waveform Gain Registers

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 5 describes mathe-

matically the function of the current waveform gain registers.

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.

As stated in the Current Waveform Gain Registers section, the

serial ports of the ADE7880 work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit words,

and the DSP works on 28 bits. As presented in Figure 43, the

AVGAIN, BVGAIN, and CVGAIN registers are accessed as

32-bit registers with four MSBs padded with 0s and sign

extended to 28 bits.

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. Bit 0

(HPFEN) of CONFIG3 register can enable or disable the filters.

See the Current Channel HPF section for more details.

Voltage Channel Sampling

The waveform samples of the voltage channel are taken at the

output of HPF and stored into VAWV, VBWV, and VCWV 24-

bit signed registers at a rate of 8 kSPS. All power and rms

calculations remain uninterrupted during this process. Bit 17

(DREADY) in the STATUS0 register is set when the VAWV,

VBWV, and VCWV 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.

As stated in the Current Waveform Gain Registers section, the

serial ports of the ADE7880 work on 32-, 16-, or 8-bit words.

Similar to registers presented in Figure 44, the VAWV, VBWV,

and VCWV 24-bit signed registers are transmitted sign

extended to 32 bits.

The ADE7880 contains an HSDC port especially designed to

provide fast access to the waveform sample registers. See the

HSDC Interface section for more details.

Data Sheet

CHANGING PHASE VOLTAGE DATA PATH

The ADE7880 can direct one phase voltage input to the

computational data path of another phase. For example, Phase A

voltage can be introduced in the Phase B computational data path,

which means all powers computed by the ADE7880 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 VAP pin. If VTOIA[1:0] = 00

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

tional data path. 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 ADE7880 behaves as if

VTOIA[1:0] = 00.

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

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

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

tional data path. 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 ADE7880 behaves

as if VTOIB[1:0] = 00.

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

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

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

data path, 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 ADE7880 behaves as if

VTOIC[1:0] = 00.
