The external sensing components shown here, a 2 mΩ shunt, two 499 kΩ and 1 kΩ resistors for the
1000:1 voltage divider, are specifically chosen to match the default values for the calibration registers
defined in Section 6.0, Register Descriptions. By choosing low-tolerance components of these
values (e.g. 1% tolerance), measurement accuracy in the 2-3% range can be achieved with zero
calibration. See Section 8.0, MCP39F521 Calibration for more information.

The COMMONA and COMMONB pins are internal
connections for the MCP39F521. These two pins
should be connected together in the application.
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
3.3
Oscillator Pins (OSCI/OSCO)
OSCI and OSCO provide the master clock for the
device. Appropriate load capacitance should be
connected to these pins for proper operation. An
optional 4 MHz crystal can be connected to these pins.
If a crystal of external clock source is not detected, the
device will clock from the internal 4 MHz oscillator.
3.4
Reset Pin (RESET)
This pin is active-low and places the delta-sigma
ADCs, PGA, internal VREF and other blocks associated
with the analog front-end in a Reset state when pulled
low. This input is Schmitt-triggered.
DS20005442A-page 11
MCP39F521
3.5
Analog Power Supply Pin (AVDD)
AVDD is the power supply pin for the analog circuitry
within the MCP39F521.
This pin requires appropriate bypass capacitors and
should be maintained to 2.7V and 3.6V for specified
operation. It is recommended to use 0.1 µF ceramic
capacitors.
3.6
Chip Address Inputs (A0, A1)
3.10
24-Bit Delta Sigma ADC
Differential Voltage Channel
Inputs (V1-/V1+)
V1- and V1+ are the two fully-differential voltage
channel inputs for the Delta-Sigma ADCs.
The linear and specified region of the channels are
dependent on the PGA gain. This region corresponds
to a differential voltage range of ±600 mVPEAK/GAIN
with VREF = 1.2V.
The A0 and A1 inputs are used by the MCP39F521 for
multiple device operations. The levels on these inputs
are compared with the corresponding bits in the slave
address. The chip is selected if the compare is true.
The maximum absolute voltage, with respect to AGND,
for each VN+/- input pin is ±1V with no distortion and
±2V, with no breaking after continuous voltage.
Up to four devices may be connected to the same bus
by using different combinations. These inputs must be
connected to VDD or GND and cannot be left floating.
3.11
In most applications, the chip address inputs are
hardwired to logic 0 or logic 1. For applications in which
these pins are controlled by a microcontroller or other
programmable device, the chip address pins must be
driven to logic 0 or logic 1 before normal device
operation can proceed.
3.7
I2C Serial Clock (SCL)
This input is used to synchronize the data transfer to
and from the device.
3.8
I2C Serial Data (SDA)
This is a bidirectional pin used to transfer addresses
and data into and out of the device. It is an open drain
terminal. Therefore, the SDA bus requires a pull-up
resistor to DVDD (typical 10k for 100kHz, 2k for
400kHz).
Analog Input (AN_IN)
This is the input to the analog-to-digital converter that
can be used for temperature measurement and
compensation. If temperature compensation is
required in the application, it is advised to connect the
low-power active thermistor IC MCP9700A to this pin.
If temperature compensation is not required, this can
be used as a general purpose analog-to-digital
converter input.
3.12
Analog Ground Pin (AGND)
AGND is the ground connection to internal analog
circuitry (ADCs, PGA, voltage reference, POR). If an
analog ground pin is available on the PCB, it is
recommended that this pin be tied to that plane.
3.13
Zero Crossing Detection (ZCD)
For normal data transfer, SDA is allowed to change
only during SCL low. Change during SCL high is
reserved for indicating the Start and Stop conditions.
This digital output pin is the output of the Zero Crossing
Detection circuit of the IC. The output here will be a
logic output with edges that transition at each zero
crossing of the voltage channel input. For more
information see Section 5.13, Zero Crossing
Detection (ZCD).
3.9
3.14
24-Bit Delta Sigma ADC
Differential Current Channel
Input Pins (I1+/I1-)
I1- and I1+ are the two fully-differential current channel
inputs for the Delta-Sigma ADCs.
The linear and specified region of the channels are
dependent on the PGA gain. This region corresponds
to a differential voltage range of ±600 mVPEAK/GAIN
with VREF = 1.2V.
The maximum absolute voltage, with respect to AGND,
for each In+/- input pin is ±1V with no distortion and
±6V with no breaking after continuous voltage.
DS20005442A-page 12
Noninverting Reference
Input/Internal Reference Output
Pin (REFIN+/OUT)
This pin is the noninverting side of the differential
voltage reference input for the delta sigma ADCs or the
internal voltage reference output.
For optimal performance, bypass capacitances should
be connected between this pin and AGND at all times,
even when the internal voltage reference is used.
However, these capacitors are not mandatory to
ensure proper operation.
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
MCP39F521
3.15
Digital Ground Connection Pins
(DGND)
DGND is the ground connection to internal digital
circuitry (SINC filters, oscillator, serial interface). If a
digital ground plane is available, it is recommended to
tie this pin to the digital plane of the PCB. This plane
should also reference all other digital circuitry in the
system.
3.16
Digital Power Supply Pin (DVDD)
DVDD is the power supply pin for the digital circuitry
within the MCP39F521. This pin requires appropriate
bypass capacitors and should be maintained between
2.7V and 3.6V for specified operation. It is
recommended to use 0.1 µF ceramic capacitors.
3.17
Data Ready Pin (DR)
The data ready pin indicates if a new delta-sigma A/D
conversion result is ready to be processed. This pin is
for indication only and should be left floating. After each
conversion is finished, a low pulse will take place on the
Data Ready pin to indicate that the conversion result is
ready and an interrupt is generated in the calculation
engine (CE). This pulse is synchronous with the line
frequency to ensure an integer number of samples for
each line cycle.
Note:
3.18
This pin is internally connected to the IRQ
of the calculation engine and should be
left floating.
Exposed Thermal Pad (EP)
This pin is the exposed thermal pad. It must be
connected to DGND.

COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL
The I2C communication protocol is a frame-based
protocol, with a complete communication frame
occurring between the I2C start and stop bits.
A command frame is a write transmission from the I2C
master to the MCP39F521 device.
Each command frame consists of a header byte, the
number of bytes in the frame, command packet (or
command packets) and a checksum.
Each response frame consists of either a ACK, NAK,
CSFAIL, or ACK+Data with checksum.
If a custom communication protocol is
desired, please contact a Microchip sales
office.
Note:
A read response frame is read transmission from the
I2C master to the MCP39F521.

MCP39F521
This approach allows for single, secure transmission
from the host processor to the MCP39F521 with either
a single command, or multiple commands.
No command in a frame is processed until the frame is
complete and the checksum and number of bytes are
validated after the stop bit.
The number of bytes in an individual command packet
depends on the specific command. For example, to set
the instruction pointer, three bytes are needed in the
packet: the command byte and two bytes for the
address you want to set to the pointer. The first byte in
a command packet is always the command byte.
4.2
I2C CONTROL BYTE
A Control byte is the first byte received following the
Start condition from the master device. The Control
byte consists of a 4-bit control code. For the
MCP39F521 the control code is ‘1110’ for all read and
write operations. The following three bits are
chip-select address bits, A2, A1, and A0. For the
MCP39F521, A2 is always set to binary ‘1’. A1 and A0
are controlled by the logic pins A1 and A0, which
allows up to 4 different devices on the I2C bus.
The last bit of the Control byte defines the operation to
be performed. When set to ‘1’, a read operation is
selected. When set to ‘0’, a write operation is selected.
Following a Start condition, the MCP39F521 monitors
the SDA bus checking for the 4-bit control code
(‘1110’) and proper address bits. Upon receiving the
correct control code and address bits, the slave
(MCP39F521) outputs an acknowledge signal on the
SDA line, and depending on the state of the R/W bit,
will either respond with data or wait to receive
additional bytes prior to the Stop condition. The
Control byte is defined in the following figure.
4.3
I2C Time Out and Clock Stretching
Time out is when an I2C slave resets its interface if the
I2C clock is low for longer than a specified time. The
MCP39F521 offers a set 2 ms I2C time out that can be
disabled through the Time-out Disable bit in the System
Configuration Register (Register 6-2).
In addition, the device includes a clock stretching
feature which allows the master to know when a frame
has been processed. Clock stretching is when a slave
device can not cooperate with the clock speed or needs
to slow down the bus. In the case of the MCP39F521,
after a frame is received, the device will hold the clock
low until the frame has been processed. The maximum
clock stretching duration is less than 10 milliseconds.
4.4
Checksum
The checksum is generated using simple byte addition
and taking the modulus to find the remainder after
dividing the sum of the entire frame by 256. This
operation is done to obtain an 8-bit checksum. All the
bytes of the frame are included in the checksum,
including the header byte and number of bytes. If a
frame includes multiple command packets, none of the
commands will be issued if the frame checksum fails.
In this instance, the MCP39F521 will respond with a
CSFAIL response of 0x51.
On commands that are requesting data back from the
MCP39F521, the frame and checksum are created in
the same way, with the header byte becoming an
acknowledge (0x06). Communication examples are
given in Section 4.6, Example Communication
Frames and MCP39F521 Responses.

DESCRIPTION
5.1
Computation Cycle Overview
The MCP39F521 uses a coherent sampling algorithm
to phase lock the sampling rate to the line frequency
with an integer number of samples per line cycle, and
reports all power output quantities at a 2N number of
line cycles. This is defined as a computation cycle and
is dependent on the line frequency, so any change in
the line frequency will change the update rate of the
output power quantities.

Conditioning
The first set of signal conditioning that occurs inside the
MCP39F521 is shown in Figure 5-1. All conditions set
in this diagram effect all of the output registers
(RMS current, RMS voltage, active power, reactive
power, apparent power, etc.). The gain of the PGA, the
Shutdown and Reset status of the 24-bit ADCs are all
controlled through the System Configuration register
(Register 6-2).
For DC applications, offset can be removed by using
the DC Offset Current register. To compensate for any
external phase error between the current and voltage
channels, the Phase Compensation register can be
used.

RMS Current and RMS Voltage
The MCP39F521 device provides true RMS
measurements. The MCP39F521 device has two
simultaneous sampling 24-bit A/D converters for the
current and voltage measurements. The root mean
square calculations are performed on 2N current and
voltage samples, where N is defined by the register
Accumulation Interval Parameter.

Power and Energy
The MCP39F521 offers signed power numbers for
active and reactive power, import and export registers
for active energy, and four-quadrant reactive power
measurement. For this device, import power or energy
is considered positive (power or energy being
consumed by the load), and export power or energy is
considered negative (power or energy being delivered
by the load). The following figure represents the
measurements obtained by the MCP39F521.

Energy Accumulation
5.8
Energy accumulation for all four energy registers
(import/export, active/reactive) occurs at the end of
each computation cycle, if the energy accumulation
has been turned on. See Section 6.3, System Status
Register on the Energy Control register. A
no-load threshold test is done to make sure the
measured energy is not below the no-load threshold; if
it is above the no-load threshold, the accumulation
occurs with a default energy resolution of 1mWh for all
of the energy registers.
5.6.1
The MCP39F521 has two simultaneous sampling A/D
converters. For the active power calculation, the
instantaneous current and instantaneous voltages are
multiplied together to create instantaneous power.
This instantaneous power is then converted to active
power by averaging or calculating the DC component.
Equation 5-4 controls the number of samples used in
this accumulation prior to updating the Active Power
output register.
Please note that although this register is unsigned, the
direction of the active power (import or export) can be
determined by the Active Power Sign bit (SIGN_PA)
located in the System Status register (Register 6-1).
NO-LOAD THRESHOLD
The no-load threshold is set by modifying the value in
the No-Load Threshold register. The unit for this
register is power with a default resolution of 0.01W. The
default value is 100 or 1.00W. Any power that is below
1W will not be accumulated into any of the energy
registers.

Power Factor (PF)
Power factor is calculated by the ratio of P to S or active
power divided by apparent power.
EQUATION 5-5:
POWER FACTOR
P
PF = --S
The Power Factor Reading is stored in a signed 16-bit
register (Power Factor). This register is a signed, two's
complement register with the MSB representing the
polarity of the power factor. Positive means inductive
load, negative means capacitive load. Each LSB is
then equivalent to a weight of 2-15. A maximum register
value of 0x7FFF corresponds to a power factor of 1.
The minimum register value of 0x8000 corresponds to
a power factor of -1.
5.10
Reactive Power (Q)
In the MCP39F521, Reactive Power is calculated using
a 90 degree phase shift in the voltage channel. The
same accumulation principles apply as with active
power where ACCU acts as an accumulator. Any light
load or residual power can be removed by using the
Offset Reactive Power register. Gain is corrected by
the Gain Reactive Power register. The final output is an
unsigned 32-bit value located in the Reactive Power
register.
Please note that although this register is unsigned, the
direction of the power can be determined by the
Reactive Power Sign bit (SIGN_PR) in the System
Status register (Register 6-1).

10-Bit Analog Input
The least 10 significant bits of the 16-bit Analog Input
register contain the output of the 10-bit ADC. The
conversion rate of the analog input occurs once every
computation cycle.
The Thermistor Voltage can be used for temperature
compensation of the calculation engine. See

Zero Crossing Detection (ZCD)
The Zero Crossing Detection block generates a logic
pulse output on the ZCD pin that is coherent with the
zero crossing of the input AC signal present on voltage
input pins (V1+, V1-). The ZCD pin can be enabled and
disabled
by
the
corresponding
bit
(ZCD_OUTPUT_DIS) in the System Configuration
register (Register 6-2). When enabled, this produces a
square wave with a frequency that is twice that of the
AC signal present on the voltage input. Figure 5-7
represents the signal on the ZCD pin superimposed
with the AC signal present on the voltage input in this
mode.

Minimum and Maximum
Recordings
The MCP39F521 has the ability to record minimum and
maximum outputs and keep them in a total of four
registers (two minimum and two maximum) based on
the value of address pointers located in the four
registers listed below.
A minimum and maximum test is done after each
calculation interval. If the current measurement value
of the value directed to by the pointer is smaller or
larger than the value in the Minimum or Maximum
register, the record is updated appropriately.
FIGURE 5-7:
Zero Crossing Detection
Operation (Noninverted, Non-Pulsed).
A second mode is available that produces a
100 µs pulse (ZCD_PULS) at each zero crossing,
shown in Figure 5-8.
<100 µs
The registers are listed as follows:
• MinMaxPointer1 → MinimumRecord1,
MaximumRecord1
• MinMaxPointer2 → MinimumRecord2,
MaximumRecord2
Only the output quantity register addresses can be
tracked by the Min/Max pointers. Output quantity
registers are defined as those from Voltage RMS to
Apparent Power (addresses 0x0006 to 0x001A). All
other addresses will be ignored by the calculation
engine.
Please note that the 64-bit energy registers can not be
tracked through the Minimum and Maximum recording
registers.
FIGURE 5-8:
Zero Crossing Detection
Operation (Noninverted, Pulsed).
Switching modes is done by setting the corresponding
bit in the System Configuration register (Register 6-2).
In addition, either the toggling of this pin, or the pulse,
can be inverted. The ZCD Inversion bit (ZCD_INV) is
also in the System Configuration register
(Register 6-2).
There are two bits in the System Configuration register
that can be used to modify the zero crossing. The zero
crossing output can be inverted by setting the Inversion
bit, or the zero crossing can be a 100 µs pulse at each
zero crossing, by setting the Pulse Bit.
Note that a low-pass filter is included in the signal path
that allows the zero crossing detection circuit to filter
out the fundamental frequency. An internal
compensation circuit is then used to gain back the
phase delay introduced by the low-pass filter resulting
in a latency of less than 100 µs.

System Version Register
The System Version register is hard-coded by

System Configuration
The System Configuration register (Register 6-2)
contains bits for controlling the following:
•
•
•
•
•
PGA setting
ADC Reset State
ADC Shutdown State
Voltage Reference Trim
Single Wire Auto-Transmission
These options are described in the following sections.
6.5.1
The two Programmable Gain Amplifiers (PGAs) reside
at the front-end of each 24-bit Delta-Sigma ADC. They
have two functions:
• Translate the Common mode of the input from
AGND to an internal level between AGND and AVDD
• Amplify the input differential signal
The translation of the Common mode does not change
the differential signal but enters the Common mode so
that the input signal can be properly amplified.
The PGA block can be used to amplify very low signals,
but the differential input range of the delta-sigma
modulator must not be exceeded. The PGA is
controlled by the PGA_CHn<2:0> bits in Register 6-2
the System Configuration register. Table 6-2
represents the gain settings for the PGAs.
ADC Shutdown mode is defined as a state where the
converters and their biases are OFF, consuming only
leakage current. When the Shutdown bit (SHUTDOWN
<1:0>) is reset to ‘0’, the analog biases will be enabled,
as well as the clock and the digital circuitry.
Each converter can be placed in Shutdown mode
independently. This mode is only available through
programming of the SHUTDOWN<1:0> bits in the
System Configuration register (Register 6-2).

The internal voltage reference comprises a proprietary
circuit and algorithm to compensate first-order and
second-order
temperature
coefficients.
The
compensation allows very low temperature coefficients
(typically 10 ppm/°C) on the entire range of
temperatures from -40°C to +125°C. This temperature
coefficient varies from part to part.
The temperature coefficient can be adjusted on each
part through the System Configuration register
(0x0042) (Register 6-2). The default value of this
register is set to 0x42. The typical variation of the
temperature coefficient of the internal voltage
reference, with respect to VREFCAL register code, is
shown in Figure 6-1.

Range Register
The Range register (Register 6-4) is a 32-bit register
that contains the number of right-bit shifts for the
following outputs, divided into separate bytes as
defined below:
• RMS Current
• RMS Voltage
• Power (Active, Reactive, Apparent)
Note that the power range byte operates across both
the active and reactive output registers and sets the
same scale.
The purpose of this register is two-fold: the number of
right-bit shifting (division by 2RANGE) must be high
enough to prevent overflow in the output register, and
low enough to allow for the desired output resolution. It
is the user’s responsibility to set this register correctly
to ensure proper output operation for a given meter
design.
For further information and example usage, see

EVENT OUTPUT PIN/EVENT
CONFIGURATION REGISTER
7.1
Event Pin
The MCP39F521 device has one Event pin that can be
configured in three possible configurations. These
configurations are:
1.
2.
3.
No event is mapped to the pin
Voltage Surge, Voltage Sag, Over Current, or
Over Power event is mapped to the pin. More
than one event can be mapped to the Event pin.
Manual control of the Event pin.
These three configurations allow for the control of
external interrupts or hardware that is dependent on
the measured power, current or voltage. The Event
configuration register (Register 7-1) below describes
how these events and pins can be configured.
7.2
Voltage Sag and Voltage Surge
Detection
The event alarms for Voltage Sag and Voltage Surge
work differently compared to the Over Current and
Over Power events, which are tested against every
computation cycle. These two event alarms are
designed to provide a much faster interrupt if the
condition occurs. Note that neither of these two events
have a respective Hold register associated with them,
since the detection time is less than one line cycle.
The calculation engine keeps track of a trailing
mean square of the input voltage, as defined by the
following equation:
EQUATION 7-1:
2
2  f LINE
V SA = -------------------------- 
f SAMPLE
0

Vn
f SAMPLE
n = – -------------------------- – 1
2  f LINE
Therefore, at each data-ready occurrence, the value of
VSA is compared to the programmable threshold set in
the Voltage Sag Limit register and Voltage Surge Limit
register to determine if a flag should be set. If either of
these events are masked to either the Event pin, a
logic-high interrupt will be given on these pins.
The Sag or Surge events can be used to quickly
determine if a power failure has occurred in the system.

MCP39F521 CALIBRATION
8.3.1
8.1
Overview
By applying stable reference voltages and currents that
are equivalent to the values that reside in the target
Calibration Current, Calibration Voltage and Calibration
Active Power registers, the Auto-Calibration
Gain command can then be issued to the device.
Calibration compensates for ADC gain error,
component tolerances and overall noise in the system.
The device provides an on-chip calibration algorithm
that allows simple system calibration to be performed
quickly. The excellent analog performance of the
A/D converters on the MCP39F521 allows for a
single point calibration and a single calibration
command to achieve accurate measurements.
Calibration can be done by either using the predefined
auto-calibration commands, or by writing directly to the
calibration registers. If additional calibration points are
required (AC offset, Phase Compensation, DC offset),
the corresponding calibration registers are available to
the user and will be described separately in this
section.
8.2
Calibration Order
The proper steps for calibration need to be observed.
If the device has an external temperature sensor
attached, temperature calibration should be done first
by reading the value from the Thermistor Voltage
register and copying the value by writing to the Ambient
Temperature Reference Voltage register.
If the device runs on the internal oscillator, the line
frequency must be calibrated next using the
Auto-Calibration Frequency command.
The single-point gain calibration at unity power factor
should be performed next.
If non-unity displacement power factor measurements
are a concern, then the next step should be phase
calibration, followed by reactive power gain calibration.
To summarize the order of calibration:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
8.3
Temperature Calibration (optional)
Line Frequency Calibration (optional)
Gain Calibration at PF = 1
Phase Calibration at PF  1 (optional)
Reactive Gain Calibration at PF  1(optional)
Single-Point Gain Calibrations at
Unity Power Factor
When using the device in AC mode with the high-pass
filters turned on, most offset errors are removed and
only a single-point gain calibration is required.
Setting the gain registers to properly produce the
desired outputs can be done manually by writing to the
appropriate register. The alternative method is to use
the auto-calibration commands described in this
section.
DS20005442A-page 38
USING THE AUTO-CALIBRATION
GAIN COMMAND
After a successful calibration (response = ACK), a
Save Registers to Flash command can then be
issued to save the calibration constants calculated by
the device.
The following registers are set when the
Auto-Calibration Gain command is issued:
• Gain Current RMS
• Gain Voltage RMS
• Gain Active Power
When this command is issued, the MCP39F521
attempts to match the expected values to the
measured values for all three output quantities by
changing the gain register based on the following
formula:
EQUATION 8-1:
Expected
GAIN NEW = GAIN OLD  -------------------------Measured
The same formula applies for voltage RMS, current
RMS and active power. Since the gain registers for all
three quantities are 16-bit numbers, the ratio of the
expected value to the measured value (which can be
modified by changing the Range register) and the
previous gain must be such that the equation yields a
valid number. Here the limits are set to be from 25,000
to 65,535. A new gain within this range for all three
limits will return an ACK for a successful calibration,
otherwise the command returns a NAK for a failed
calibration attempt.
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the proper
range settings, PGA settings and hardware design
settings are correct to allow for successful calibration
using this command.
8.3.2
EXAMPLE OF RANGE SELECTION
FOR VALID CALIBRATION
In this example, the user applies a calibration current
of 1A to an uncalibrated system. The indicated value
in the Current RMS register is 2300 with the system's
specific shunt value, PGA gain, etc. The user expects
to see a value of 1000 in the Current RMS register
when 1A current is applied, meaning 1.000A with
1 mA resolution. Other given values are:
• The existing value for Gain Current RMS is 33480
• The existing value for Range is 12
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
MCP39F521
By using Equation 8-2, the calculation for GainNEW
yields:
EQUATION 8-2:
Expected
1000
GAIN NEW = GAIN OLD  --------------------------- = 33480  ------------ = 14556
Measured
2300
14556  25 000
When
using
the
Auto-Calibration Gain
command, the result would be a failed calibration or a
NAK returned form the MCP39F521, because the
resulting GainNEW is less than 25,000.
The solution is to use the Range register to bring the
measured value closer to the expected value, such
that a new gain value can be calculated within the
limits specified above.
The GainNEW is much larger than the 16-bit limit of
65535, so fewer right-bit shifts must be introduced to
get the measured value closer to the expected value.
The user needs to compute the number of bit shifts
that will give a value lower than 65535. To estimate
this number:
EQUATION 8-5:
145565
------------------ = 2.2
65535
2.2 rounds to the closest integer value of 2. The range
value changes to 12 – 2 = 10; there are 2 less right-bit
shifts.
The new measured value will be 2300 x 22 = 9200.
The Range register specifies the number of right-bit
shifts (equivalent to divisions by 2) after the
multiplication with the Gain Current RMS register.
Refer to Section 5.0, Calculation Engine (CE)
Description for information on the Range register.
EQUATION 8-6:
Incrementing the Range register by 1 unit, an
additional right-bit shift or ÷2 is included in the
calculation. Increasing the current range from 12 to 13
yields the new measured Current RMS register value
of 2300/2 = 1150. The expected (1000) and measured
(1150) are much closer now, so the expected new gain
should be within the limits:
The resulting new gain is within the limits and the
device successfully calibrates Current RMS and
returns an ACK.
EQUATION 8-3:
Expected
1000
GAIN NEW = GAIN OLD  --------------------------- = 33480  ------------ = 29113
Measured
1150
25 000  29113  65535
The resulting new gain is within the limits and the
device successfully calibrates Current RMS and
returns an ACK.
It can be observed that the range can be set to 14 and
the resulting new gain will still be within limits
(GainNEW = 58226). However, since this gain value is
close to the limit of the 16-bit Gain register, variations
from system to system (component tolerances, etc.)
might create a scenario where the calibration is not
successful on some units and there would be a yield
issue. The best approach is to choose a range value
that places the new gain in the middle of the bounds of
the gain registers described above.
Expected

GAIN NEW = GAIN OLD  --------------------------- = 33480  --------------- = 36391
Measured

8.4
Calibrating the Phase
Compensation Register
Phase compensation is provided to adjust for any
phase delay between the current and voltage path.
This procedure requires sinusoidal current and voltage
waveforms, with a significant phase shift between
them, and significant amplitudes. The recommended
displacement power factor for calibration is 0.5. The
procedure for calculating the phase compensation
register is as follows:
1.
Determine what the difference is between the
angle corresponding to the measured power
factor (PFMEAS) and the angle corresponding to
the expected power factor (PFEXP), in degrees.
EQUATION 8-7:

180
ANGLEMEAS    = acos  PFMEAS   ---------

180
ANGLE EXP    = acos  PF EXP   ---------

In a second example, when applying 1A, the user
expects an output of 1.0000A with 0.1 mA resolution.
The example is starting with the same initial values:
2.
EQUATION 8-4:
EQUATION 8-8:

Combine this additional phase compensation to
whatever value is currently in the phase
compensation, and update the register.
Equation 8-9 should be computed in terms of an
8-bit two's complement signed value. The 8-bit
result is placed in the least significant byte of the
16-bit Phase Compensation register.

Offset/No-Load Calibrations
During offset calibrations, no line voltage or current
should be applied to the system. The system should be
in a No-Load condition.
8.5.1
Calibrating the Line Frequency
Register
The Line Frequency register contains a 16-bit number
with a value equivalent to the input line frequency as it
is measured on the voltage channel. When in
DC mode, this calculation is turned off and the register
will be equal to zero.
The measurement of the line frequency is only valid
from 45 to 65 Hz.
Based on Equation 8-9, the maximum angle in degrees
that can be compensated is ±3.2 degrees. If a larger
phase shift is required, contact your local Microchip
sales office.
8.5
8.6
AC OFFSET CALIBRATION
There are three registers associated with the AC Offset
Calibration:
• Offset Current RMS
• Offset Active Power
• Offset Reactive Power
8.6.1
USING THE AUTO-CALIBRATION
FREQUENCY COMMAND
By applying a stable reference voltage with a constant
line frequency that is equivalent to the value that
resides in the Line Frequency Ref, the
Auto-Calibration Frequency command can
then be issued to the device.
After a successful calibration (response = ACK), a
Save Registers to Flash command can then be
issued to save the calibration constants calculated by
the device.
The
following
register
is
set
Auto-Calibration
Frequency
issued:
when
the
command is
• Gain Line Frequency
Note that the command is only required when running
off the internal oscillator. The formula used to calculate
the new gain is shown in Equation 8-1.
When computing the AC offset values, the respective
Gain and Range registers should be taken into
consideration according to the block diagrams in
Figures 5-2 and 5-4.
After
a
successful
offset
calibration,
a
Save Registers to Flash command can then be
issued to save the calibration constants calculated by
the device.
8.5.2
DC OFFSET CALIBRATION
In DC applications, the high-pass filter on the current
and voltage channels is turned off. To remove any
residual DC value on the current, the DC Offset Current
register adds to the A/D conversion immediately after
the ADC and prior to any other function.

8.7
Temperature Compensation
The MCP39F521 measures the indication of the
temperature sensor and uses the value to compensate
the temperature variation of the shunt resistance and
the frequency of the internal RC oscillator.
The same formula applies for Line Frequency, Current
RMS, Active Power and Reactive Power. The
temperature compensation coefficient depends on the
16-bit signed integer value of the corresponding
compensation register.
8.8
Retrieving Factory Default
Calibration Values
After user calibration and a Save to Flash command
has been issued, it is possible to retrieve the factory
default calibration values. This can be done by writing
0xA5A5 to the Calibration Register Delimiter, issuing a
Save to Flash, and then resetting the part. This
procedure will retrieve all factory default calibration
values and will remain in this state until calibration has
been performed again, and a Save to Flash
command has been issued.
EQUATION 8-10:
y = x   1 + c   T – T CAL  
TemperatureCompensation Register
c = ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------M
2
Where:
x = Uncompensated Output (corresponding to
Line Frequency, Current RMS, Active Power
and Reactive Power)
y = Compensated Output
c = Temperature Compensation Coefficient
(depending on the shunt's Temperature
Coefficient of Resistance or on the internal RC
oscillator temperature frequency drift). There
are three registers: one for Line Frequency
compensation, one for Current compensation,
and one for power compensation (Active and
Reactive)
T =
Thermistor Voltage (in 10-bit ADC units)
TCAL = Ambient Temperature Reference Voltage. It
should be set at the beginning of the
calibration procedure, by reading the
thermistor voltage and writing its value to the
ambient temperature reference voltage
register.
M = 26 (for Line Frequency compensation)
= 27 (for Current, Active Power and Reactive
Power)
When calibrating the temperature, the effect of the
compensation coefficients is minimal. The coefficients

calibration temperature and the device temperature is
significant. It is recommended to use the default values

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
•
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
•
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
•
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
•
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
Information contained in this publication regarding device
applications and the like is provided only for your convenience
and may be superseded by updates. It is your responsibility to
ensure that your application meets with your specifications.

WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND WHETHER EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, WRITTEN OR ORAL, STATUTORY OR
OTHERWISE, RELATED TO THE INFORMATION,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ITS CONDITION,
QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, MERCHANTABILITY OR
