ADE7757 Energy Metering IC
EVAL-ADE7757EB
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADE7757 is a high accuracy energy measurement IC
with integrated oscillator. The part specifications surpass
the accuracy requirements as quoted in the IEC1036 standard.
The ADE7757 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 evaluation board provides screw connectors
for easy connection to an external counter. The CF logic output gives instantaneous real power information. This output is
intended to be used for calibration purposes. The evaluation
board allows this logic output to be connected to an LED or
optoisolator.
The ADE7757 evaluation board can easily be converted into
an energy meter by the addition of a local power supply and
the connection of the appropriate current sensor. A large
amount of prototype area is made available on the evaluation
board for this purpose.

Voltage and current signals are connected at the screw terminals SK1 and SK2 respectively. All analog input signals are
filtered using the on-board antialias filters before being presented to the analog inputs of the ADE7757. Some analog
inputs offer additional signal conditioning, e.g., attenuation on
the voltage channel. The default component values included
with the evaluation board are the recommended values to be
used with ADE7757. The user can easily change these components, but this is not recommended unless the user is familiar
with sigma-delta converters as well as the criteria used for selecting the analog input filters—see ADE7757 datasheet.
Voltage Input
SK2 is a two-way connection block that can be directly
connected to a high voltage source, e.g., 220 V rms. The
resistor network R15 (trim pot), R19, R20, R21, and R22
make up a very flexible attenuation and calibration network—see schematic. The attenuation network is designed
such that the corner frequency (–3 dB frequency) of the
network matches that of the RC (antialiasing) filters on
the other analog inputs. This is important, because if they
do not match there will be large errors at low power factors. Figure 1 shows how the attenuation network may be
used with fixed resistors or the trim pot. The trim pot
allows the voltage signal on V2P to be scaled to calibrate
the frequency on CF to some given constant, e.g., 100
imp/kWhr. Some examples are given later.
If Channel 2 is being used in a single-ended mode of operation, the unused input of the pair should be connected
to analog ground (AGND) via an antialias filter. This is
shown in Figure 2 where V2N is connected to AGND
using jumper JP8.

All passive components (resistors and capacitors) which
make up the attenuation network and antialias filters may
be modified by the user. The components are mounted using
PCB jack sockets for easy removal and replacement of
components.
Current Input
SK1 is a two-way connection block, which allows the
ADE7757 to be connected to a current sensor through one
differential input channel. In this example, we chose a shunt as
the current sensor. Figure 3 shows a typical connection diagram for shunt connection.

EVALUATION BOARD SETUP (ANALOG INPUTS)
Figure 4 shows how the ADE7757 evaluation board can be set

up for a simple evaluation. Two signal generators are used to
provide the sinusoidal (ac) signals for Channel 1 and Channel
2. The user must have some way of phase locking the generators. Also if the ADE7757 performance-over-power factor is
being evaluated, two separate signal sources will be required.
The generators are shown connected in a single-ended configuration. The grounded analog inputs of Channel 1 and Channel
2 (V1N and V2N) are connected to AGND via an antialias
filter. In Figure 4, analog input V2N is grounded via R21 and
R22. The capacitor C18 is connected in parallel.

LOGIC OUTPUTS
ADE7757 provides the active power information in the
form of an output frequency. The three frequency outputs
are F1, F2 and CF. Consult the datasheet for more information on these outputs. The logic outputs F1 and F2 are
intended to be used to drive an impulse counter or stepper
motor. The outputs are buffered and available at the connector SK6. A stepper motor may be directly connected
here. The power supply for the buffer is +5V (SK4A) and
may be connected to the ADE7757 supply using jumper
JP15, or to its own supply.
The logic output CF can be directly connected to an LED
using JP14 (Position B) or to an optically isolated output (Position A). By closing Positions A and B, both options are selected. The optically isolated output is available at connector
SK5. This isolated output is useful when the evaluation board
is connected directly to a high voltage (e.g., 220 V residential). A
typical connection diagram for this isolated output is shown in
Figure 5.

OUTPUT FREQUENCY SELECTION
ADE7757 provides up to four different output frequencies
on F1 and F2. The output frequency selection is made via
the logic inputs S0 and S1—see ADE7757 datasheet. On
the evaluation board these inputs are set by using jumpers
JP12 and JP13. The logic input SCF is set via jumper 11
(JP11). For a full explanation of the ADE7757 output
frequency selection see the datasheet.

EVALUATION BOARD SET UP AS AN ENERGY
METER
Figure 6 shows a wiring diagram that allows a simple
energy meter to be implemented using the ADE7757
evaluation board. The current transducer used in this ex-
Ω
ample is a 400 µ
shunt. The meter is intended to be used
with a line voltage of 220 V and a maximum current of
25 A. The frequency outputs F1 and F2 can be used to
drive a mechanical counter. These outputs will be calibrated to provide 100 imp/kWhr. The logic output CF
has an output frequency that can be up to 2048 times higher
–3–

than the frequency on F1 and F2. This output can be used
for calibration purposes and is shown connected to a frequency counter via the optoisolator in Figure 6.
At maximum current (25 A), the power seen by the meter
will be 5.5 kW. This will produce a frequency of 0.153 Hz
on F1 and F2 when these outputs are calibrated to
100imp/kWhr (100imp/hr = 0.02777 Hz, 0.02777 x 5.5 =
0.153 Hz). From Table V in the ADE7757 datasheet, the
closest frequency to 0.153 Hz in the half-scale ac inputs
column is for F
tor frequency of 466k Hz. Therefore F
ting S1 = 1 and S0 = 0. The choice of CF frequencies in
this mode (see Table III in the ADE7757 datasheet) are
32 times F1 and 16 times F1. For this example 32 times
F1 is selected by setting SCF = 1.
Since the voltage on Channel 1 is fixed, the only possible
way of calibrating (adjusting) the output frequency in F1
and F2 is by varying the voltage on Channel 2. This is
carried out by varying the attenuation of the line voltage
using the trim pot.
First we can calculate the voltage required in Channel 2 in
order to calibrate the frequency on the logic outputs F1 and F2
to 100imp/kWhr. The ADE7757 datasheet gives the equation
which relates the voltage on Channel 1 and Channel 2 to the
output frequency on F1 and F2.
First a current is selected for calibration, 5 A for example.
This gives a Channel 1 voltage of 400 µ
rms. The on-chip or external reference of 2.5 V is selected
using JP10.
The output frequency at 5 A on F1 and F2 should be
(100imp/kWhr) x 1.1 kW = 0.03055 Hz, where (220 V x
5 A = 1.1 kW).
From Equation 1 the voltage on Channel 2 should be set
to 54.4 mV. The attenuation network as shown in Figure
1 is used to attenuate 220 V to 54.4 mV. R19 = 590 k
R20 = 200 k
However, since the meter is being calibrated at CF and
CF is set to 32 times F1, the voltage on Channel 2 should
be adjusted until CF = 32 x 0.03055 Hz = 0.9776 Hz is
registered on the frequency counter. The counter should
be set up to display the average of ten frequency measurements on CF. This will remove any ripple due to the
instantaneous power signal. See the ADE7757 datasheet
for more details.
JUMPER SELECTION
The ADE7757 evaluation board comes with several
jumper selections that allow the user to exercise all of
the ADE7757 functionality. There are also some options
such as attenuation networks and optically isolated outputs
that allow the ADE7757 to be evaluated under the same
conditions as the end application. Table I outlines all the
jumper options and explains how they are used. Table I
should be used in conjugation with Figure 7, which will
make it easier to locate the jumper in question.

this input.
OpenAntialias filter in input V1N is en-

OpenWhen evaluating the ADE7757, Chan-
nel 1 is best used in a differential

3. In this example a shunt is used to
sense the current. The shunt can be
referenced to the AGND of the board
by using TP9 as shown.
