Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection
The SA9103E integrated circuit's inputs/outputs are protected against ESD.
Power Consumption
The power consumption rating of the SA9103E integrated circuit is less than
25mW.
Serial Interface
Reading and resetting of the SA9103E's on-chip integrator, is performed via the
serial interface.
The settings are:
19 200 Baud
1 Start bit (S)
1 Stop bit (E)
No parity bits
The Serial Interface allows for the following operations:
Read Integrator:
The SA9103E integrated circuit transmits the integrator status
to the controller, after the current measurement cycle has been completed (8 mains
periods maximum).
Reset Integrator:
The SA9103E integrator is reset, without transmitting the
integrator status.
Read/Reset Integrator):
The SA9103E transmits the integrator status and resets
the integrator after the current measurement cycle has been completed.
In a typical application, the system controller monitors the status of the SA9103E's
integrator using the "Read" command. At rated load conditions, the capacity of the
22 bit integrator allows for an integration time of 2 seconds prior to integrator
overflow.
If after a "Read" command, the integrator value is sufficently high, a "Read/Reset"
command from the controller causes the SA9103E integrated circuit to complete
the existing measurement cycle, transmit the 16 most significant bits of the 22 bit
integrator via the Serial Output (SOUT) to the controller and restart the integrator.
In order to ensure correct measurements, the integrator commands ("Read" and
"Read/Reset") are only executed after completion of the internal offset calibration
cycle. The cycle length is 8 mains periods.
Thus, for power calculations, the time value should be taken from the difference in
time from the previously received energy value to the currently received value.
