2.1 Line Voltage Sensor
The high-voltage AC line is attenuated using a voltage divider sensor comprised of five 1206 resistors before being
supplied to the CS5490 voltage channel input. Figure 2 shows the resistor diagram for line voltage sensing. R1 is
actually four large-value resistors, which increases the voltage rating. R2 is one 1K sense resistor. Refer to the
vendor’s specifications for voltage compliance.
The divider ratio is determined by the maximum input range of the CS5490 voltage channel (176mV
RMS
) and the
maximum line voltage. The division ratio is determined by Equation 1.
For a line voltage, V
= 260V
IN
, and R2 = 1K, R1 can be solved. See Equation 2:
RMS
To give a 115% margin and to select common resistor values, R1 = 115% 1.47M is selected and composed of
four resistors: 4 422k.
The voltage sense resistor (R2) must be referenced to the same potential as the current sensor and CS5490 power
supply (located either on the Line or Neutral). By design, the CRD5490-Z is referenced to the Line side after the
fuse. To switch the sensor reference, Line and Neutral of both the load and the source could be switched, and the
fuse should be placed on the line externally.
2.2 Shunt Current Resistor
The CRD5490-Z implements current sensing using a low-resistance shunt. When a shunt is used, the current
channel’s signal amplitude will be set by the shunt resistor using Ohm's Law, V = IR. To keep power dissipation low,
it is necessary to use a low-resistance shunt. The current channel of the CS5490 provides a high gain setting (50x)
to enable the use of a low-valued shunt. The maximum input amplitude for the current channel is 35mV
50x gain range.

2.3 Power Supply
The CRD5490-Z contains two separate power supply domains: isolated +5V USB supply and +3.3V non-isolated
CS5490 power supply derived from the power line. The +3.3V non-isolated power supply circuit is designed to
reduce the overall supply volume by creating a two-stage drop capacitor and buck supply.
By selecting an efficient buck design instead of a simple voltage regulator, the rectified supply voltage is raised, the
transferred power is increased, and the drop capacitor value is reduced. Reducing the value substantially reduces
the capacitor's size. If size is not a factor, the more expensive buck design could be replaced with a simple voltage
regulator. Figure 3 and Figure 4 show the two options evaluated for the CRD5490-Z design. Contact Cirrus Logic
sales for assistance with a cost-reduced, regulator-only design.
2.4 MCU Purpose
The CRD5490-Z is designed to minimize the requirements of the MCU. Virtually any low-cost MCU with non-volatile
memory (NVM) can be used with the CS5490 device and software. The microchip MCU has the following purposes
in the CRD5490-Z:
– Store and reload calibration coefficients
– Perform USB to UART transactions that mimic a serial COM port
USB transactions are sent from the PC to the MCU. The MCU reads the first byte (character) and determines
whether it should transmit the remaining bytes to the CS5490 as a Write/Read/DSP command or store or recall as
calibration coefficients into NVM. All responses from the CS5490 are directly translated back to the PC via the MCU.
MCU UART communication transactions can be viewed at the bottom of the GUI. Characters sent or received are
displayed in hexadecimal format. Refer to Figure 26.

3.3.5.1 AC Offset / Gain Register
In the AC Offset and Gain fields, the AC offset and gain registers for all channels are displayed in hexadecimal
format. These registers can be modified directly by typing values in the fields and then pressing Enter on the
keyboard. The AC offset register only affects the current channel's I
3.3.5.2 Performing Calibrations
To ensure accurate results, Gain calibration should be performed before AC offset calibration. The gain calibration
can be performed on both the voltage and current channels of the CS5490. The AC offset calibration can be
performed only on the current channel. In the CS5490, the initial values in the calibration registers affect the results
of the calibration. The register values are shown in blue in Figure 14. Before calibration, the gain and offset registers
should be configured in their default state 0x 40 0000 (gain = 1) for gain registers and 0x 00 0000 (clear = 0) for
offset registers.
Gain Calibration
For gain calibration, the CRD5490-Z software configures the gain registers prior to setting up calibration based on
the reference meter readings. The CRD5490-Z software uses the non-full scale gain calibration techniques and
formulas in Appendix 3: Non-Full Scale Gain Calibration (see page 33) to set up the CS5490 voltage and current
channel gain registers before calibration. The AC offset register values are not modified by the software, and the
current configuration are used. The default AC offset register value should be 0x 00 0000.

APPENDIX 3: NON-FULL SCALE GAIN CALIBRATION
When resources are limited, it may be necessary to provide non-full-scale amplitudes and perform built-in
calibration. To perform a non-full-scale calibration, the initial gain register conditions of the device must be identified
before calibration. Usually, initial gain register conditions are set to a default value of one, but this is not required.
Instead, the initial gain register conditions are set to accommodate the non-full-scale input calibration. Before
calibration is executed, the gain register can be set using the following equations:
where:

Reference Limits
The calibration line voltage (V
) or load current (I
REF
) must not be set too low. It is recommended to keep the
REF
register values at a minimum of ½ of the maximum levels. Since the gain register can be set to a maximum value of
4, the input could be set to ¼ of the maximum levels. It is not recommended to set the input to ¼ of the maximum
levels due to variations in setup conditions. If the input is too low, the gain register will set the default value of one
after calibration.

Current Scale Register
To perform calibration with less than full scale load without using the above procedure, it is possible to set the current
channel's Scale register. The current channel calibration data path contains a Scale register (page 18, address 63)
that can be adjusted before calibration to accommodate the non-full-scale load.
