GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Energy Metering IC
With On-Chip Fault Detection
AD7751*
The only analog circuitry used in the AD7751 is in the ADCs
and reference circuit. All other signal processing (e.g., multipli-
cation and filtering) is carried out in the digital domain. This
approach provides superior stability and accuracy over extremes
in environmental conditions and over time.
The AD7751 incorporates a novel fault detection scheme that
warns of fault conditions and allows the AD7751 to continue
accurate billing during a fault event. The AD7751 does this
by continuously monitoring both the phase and neutral (re-
turn) currents. A fault is indicated when these currents differ by
more than 12.5%. Billing is continued using the larger of the
two currents.
The AD7751 supplies average real power information on the
low-frequency outputs F1 and F2. These logic outputs may be
used to directly drive an electromechanical counter or interface
to an MCU. The CF logic output gives instantaneous real power
information. This output is intended to be used for calibration
purposes.
The AD7751 includes a power supply monitoring circuit on the
AV
DD
supply pin. The AD7751 will remain in a reset condition
until the supply voltage on AV
DD
reaches 4 V. If the supply falls
below 4 V, the AD7751 will also be reset and no pulses will be
issued on F1, F2, and CF.
Internal phase matching circuitry ensures that the voltage and
current channels are matched whether the HPF in Channel 1 is
on or off. The AD7751 also has anticreep protection.
The AD7751 is available in 24-lead DIP and SSOP packages.
The AD7751 is a high-accuracy fault-tolerant electrical energy
measurement IC that is intended for use with 2-wire distribution
systems. The part specifications surpass the accuracy require-
ments as quoted in the IEC1036 standard.

*Stresses
above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause perma-
nent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those listed in the operational sections
of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating condi-
tions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although
the AD7751 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on
devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are
recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

TERMINOLOGY
MEASUREMENT ERROR
The error associated with the energy measurement made by the
AD7751 is defined by the following formula:
Percentage Error =
For the ac PSR measurement a reading at nominal supplies
(5 V) is taken. A 200 mV rms/100 Hz signal is then introduced
onto the supplies and a second reading obtained under the same
input signal levels. Any error introduced is expressed as a per-
centage of reading—see Measurement Error definition.
For the dc PSR measurement a reading at nominal supplies
(5 V) is taken. The supplies are then varied
±
5% and a second
reading is obtained with the same input signal levels. Any error
introduced is again expressed as a percentage of reading.
GAIN ERROR
Energy Registered by the AD7751 – True Energy
True Energy
PHASE ERROR BETWEEN CHANNELS
×
100%
The HPF (High-Pass Filter) in Channel 1 has a phase lead
response. To offset this phase response and equalize the phase
response between channels a phase correction network is also
placed in Channel 1. The phase correction network matches the
phase to within
±
0.1° over a range of 45 Hz to 65 Hz and
±
0.2°
over a range 40 Hz to 1 kHz (see Figures 10 and 11).
ADC OFFSET ERROR
The gain error of the AD7751 is defined as the difference between
the measured output frequency (minus the offset) and the ideal
output frequency. It is measured with a gain of 1 in Channel
V1A. The difference is expressed as a percentage of the ideal
frequency. The ideal frequency is obtained from the transfer
function—see Transfer Function section.
GAIN ERROR MATCH
This refers to the dc offset associated with the analog inputs to
the ADCs. It means that with the analog inputs connected to
AGND the ADCs still see an analog input signal of 1 mV to
10 mV. However, when the HPF is switched on the offset is
removed from the current channel and the power calculation is
not affected by this offset.
POWER SUPPLY REJECTION
The gain error match is defined as the gain error (minus the
offset) obtained when switching between a gain of 1 and a gain
of 2, 8, or 16. It is expressed as a percentage of the output
frequency obtained under a gain of 1. This gives the gain
error observed when the gain selection is changed from
1 to 2, 8, or 16.
This quantifies the AD7751 measurement error as a percentage
of reading when the power supplies are varied.

Description
Digital Power Supply. This pin provides the supply voltage for the digital circuitry in the AD7751.
The supply voltage should be maintained at 5 V
±
5% for specified operation. This pin should be
decoupled with a 10
µF
capacitor in parallel with a ceramic 100 nF capacitor.
High-Pass Filter Select. This logic input is used to enable the HPF in Channel 1 (the current
channel). A Logic 1 on this pin enables the HPF. The associated phase response of this filter has
been internally compensated over a frequency range of 45 Hz to 1 kHz. The HPF filter should be
enabled in energy metering applications.
Analog Power Supply. This pin provides the supply voltage for the analog circuitry in the AD7751.
The supply should be maintained at 5 V
±
5% for specified operation. Every effort should be made
to minimize power supply ripple and noise at this pin by the use of proper decoupling. This pin
should be decoupled to AGND with a 10
µF
capacitor in parallel with a ceramic 100 nF capacitor.
Analog Inputs for Channel 1 (Current Channel). These inputs are fully differential voltage inputs
with a maximum signal level of
±
660 mV with respect to Pin V1N for specified operation. The
maximum signal level at these pins is
±
1 V with respect to AGND. Both inputs have internal ESD
protection circuitry and an overvoltage of
±
6 V can also be sustained on these inputs without risk of
permanent damage.
Negative Input Pin for Differential Voltage Inputs V1A and V1B. The maximum signal level at this
pin is
±
1 V with respect to AGND. The input has internal ESD protection circuitry and in addition,
an overvoltage of
±
6 V can be sustained without risk of permanent damage. This input should be
directly connected to the burden resistor and held at a fixed potential, i.e., AGND. See Analog
Input section.
Negative and Positive Inputs for Channel 2 (Voltage Channel). These inputs provide a fully differ-
ential input pair. The maximum differential input voltage is
±
660 mV for specified operation. The
maximum signal level at these pins is
±
1 V with respect to AGND. Both inputs have internal ESD
protection circuitry and an overvoltage of
±
6 V can also be sustained on these inputs without risk of
permanent damage.
Reset Pin for the AD7751. A logic low on this pin will hold the ADCs and digital circuitry in a reset
condition. Bringing this pin logic low will clear the AD7751 internal registers.
Provides Access to the On-Chip Voltage Reference. The on-chip reference has a nominal value of
2.5 V
±
8% and a typical temperature coefficient of 30 ppm/°C. An external reference source may also
be connected at this pin. In either case, this pin should be decoupled to AGND with a 1
µF
ceramic
capacitor and 100 nF ceramic capacitor.
Provides the Ground Reference for the Analog Circuitry in the AD7751, i.e., ADCs and Reference.
This pin should be tied to the analog ground plane of the PCB. The analog ground plane is the
ground reference for all analog circuitry, e.g., antialiasing filters, current and voltage transduc-
ers, etc. For good noise suppression the analog ground plane should only be connected to the digital
ground plane at one point. A star ground configuration will help to keep noisy digital return currents
away from the analog circuits.
Select Calibration Frequency. This logic input is used to select the frequency on the calibration
output CF. Table IV shows how the calibration frequencies are selected.
These logic inputs are used to select one of four possible frequencies for the digital-to-frequency
conversion. This offers the designer greater flexibility when designing the energy meter. See Select-
ing a Frequency for an Energy Meter Application section.
These logic inputs are used to select one of four possible gains for the analog inputs V1A and V1B.
The possible gains are 1, 2, 8 and 16. See Analog Input section.
An external clock can be provided at this logic input. Alternatively, a parallel resonant AT crystal can
be connected across CLKIN and CLKOUT to provide a clock source for the AD7751. The clock
frequency for specified operation is 3.579545 MHz. Crystal load capacitors of between 22 pF
and 33 pF (ceramic) should be used with the gate oscillator circuit.
A crystal can be connected across this pin and CLKIN as described above to provide a clock source
for the AD7751. The CLKOUT pin can drive one CMOS load when an external clock is supplied
at CLKIN or by gate oscillator circuit.
This logic output will go active high when a fault condition occurs. A fault is defined as a condition
under which the signals on V1A and V1B differ by more than 12.5%. The logic output will be reset
to zero when a fault condition is no longer detected. See Fault Detection section.
