circuit has a serial interface with a RS232
protocol, ideal for use with a µ-Controller.
The SA9103C performs the calculation for
active and reactive power.
The integrated values for active and

frequency and voltage information are
accessable through the RS232-Interface
as 16 bit values.
This innovative universal single phase
power/energy metering integrated circuit
is ideally suited for energy calculations in
applications such as electricity dispensing
systems (ED's), residential municipal
metering and factory energy metering and

The SA9103C integrated circuit is available
in both 20 pin dual-in-line plastic (DIP-20),
as well as 20 pin small outline (SOIC-20)
package types.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The SA9103C is a CMOS mixed signal Analog/Digital integrated circuit, which performs
power/energy calculations across a power range of 1000:1, to an overall accurancy of
better than Class 1.
The integrated circuit includes all the required functions for 1-phase power and energy
measurement, such as two oversampling A/D converters for the voltage and current
sense inputs, power calculation and energy integration. Internal offsets are eliminated
through the use of cancellation procedures. The SA9103C integrates the measured
active and reactive power consumption into 22 bit integrators, which are accessable via
a serial port having a RS232 protocol. Two additional on-chip registers exist: one register
contains the mains frequency information; and the other the voltage information.

1.
Power calculation
In the Application Circuit (Figure 1), the voltage drop across the shunt will be
between 0 and 16mV (0 to 80A through a shunt resistor of 200µΩ). This voltage is
converted to a current of between 0 and 16µA, by means of resistors R
1
and R
2
.
The current sense input saturates at an input current of ±25µA peak.
For the voltage sensor input, the mains voltage (230V AC) is divided down through
a divider to 14V. The resulting current into the A/D converter input is 14µA at
nominal voltage, via resistor R4 (1MΩ).
In this configuration, with a mains voltage of 230V and a current of 80A, the
SA9103C functions at its optimum conditions, having a margin of 3dB for overload
available.
2.
Analog Input Configuration
The input circuitry of the current and voltage sensor inputs are illustrated below.
These inputs are protected against electrostatic discharge through clamping
diodes.
The feedback loops from the outputs of the amplifiers A
I
and A
V
generate virtual
shorts on the signal inputs. Exact duplications of the input currents are generated
for the analog signal processing circuitry.
