§ 14 Principle of operation of the electronic meter A100
The design and operation of the main elements
Electronic counter module
The high accuracy of active energy measurements is achieved using a special measuring IC including delta-sigma converters for current and voltage input signals, with a highly stable reference voltage and a crystal oscillator, and a digital signal processor (DSP). The output signals of two "delta-sigma" converters are sent to a digital signal processor (DSP), where they are processed and multiplied. As a result, the output of the digital signal processor (DSP) generates pulses with a frequency proportional to the power consumed. Also, the digital signal processor controls the extraction and filtering process of a possible constant component of the current and voltage signals. Counting pulses issued by a digital signal processor produces a microcontroller with a subsequent increase in the register of the active tariff and data storage in the non-volatile EEPROM memory. The microcontroller is an important link between the microprocessor and the peripheral devices of the circuit, controlling the operation of the liquid crystal display (LCD), the LED indicator LED, the IrDA port and the pulse output.
Constant calibrations used for necessary calculations Are loaded into the meter at the factory and stored in a non-volatile EEPROM memory along with the configuration.
The current circuit of the meter uses a low-resistance shunt with No more than 0.6 mOhm. Voltage before entering the "delta-sigma" entrance Converter passes through a series of highly linear resistive Voltage dividers.
All the main electronic elements of the meter are located on one Printed circuit board with planar-surface and through installation. On The following components are installed on the printed circuit board:

Power Supply
In all modifications of the A100 meters, a power supply is installed, Designed for a wide range of input voltage supply Network - from 184 to 276 V. For reliable protection against overload and fast Transient bursts, the input circuits of the power supply have A nonlinear suppression device, a series of current-limiting protective resistors And voltage, as well as the HF filter.
Voltage measuring sensors
To obtain a high-voltage signal and minimize the phase shift in a wide dynamic range, resistive voltage dividers are used.
Highly stable SMT resistors with a minimum temperature coefficient are used as dividers.
The voltage is applied directly to the main board, where, using resistive dividers, they are led to the required level of input signals for the delta-sigma of the measuring transducer (A / D converter).
The measuring IC in the circuit provides an accurate measurement of voltage and current for use in calculating the required quantities.
Conversion and calculation of signals
The measuring IC contains "delta-sigma" converters (ADCs) Which convert the voltage and current input signals to digital Code and digital signal processor (DSP), the corresponding Thus multiplying the results of the ADC. Then the measuring IC Converts energy into pulses for a microcontroller counter, Which processes the input pulses and transmits the data to the memory Counter, and if necessary, provides data transfer On the LCD and peripheral devices of the circuit (relays, ports). Also The measuring IC comprises a circuit for detecting power interruptions, Which sends the corresponding signal to the microcontroller. Constant calibrations stored in the EEPROM memory are loaded In the meter at the factory and become part of the corresponding operations Calculation of the desired values.
