Description

The ADE7756 is a high accuracy electrical power measurement IC with a serial interface and a pulse output. The ADE7756 incorporates two second order sigma delta ADCs, reference circuitry, temperature sensor and all the signal processing required to perform active power and energy measurement evaluation board, together with the ADE7756 data sheet and this documentation provides a complete evaluation platform for the ADE7756.


The ADE7756 evaluation board has been designed so that the ADE7756 can be evaluated in the end application, i.e., Watt-Hour Meter. Using the appropriate transducers on the current channel (e.g., shunt, CT etc.) the evaluation board can be connected to a test bench or high voltage (240V rms) test circuit. An on-board resistor divider network provides the attenuation for the line voltage. This application note also describes how the current transducers should be connected for the best performance. The evaluation board (watt-hour meter) is configured and calibrated via the parallel port of a PC. The data interface between the evaluation board and the PC is fully isolated. Windows^TM based software is provided with the evaluation board which allows it to be quickly configured as an energy meter. The evaluation board also functions as a stand alone evaluation system which can be easily incorporated into an existing system via a 25 way D-Sub  connector.
