4.8.2 Line-cycle Synchronized Averaging

When operating in Line-cycle Synchronized Averaging
mode, and when line frequency measurement is
enabled (see section

5.4 Line Frequency Measurement

on page 22), the CS5484 uses the voltage (V) channel
zero crossings and measured line frequency to
automatically adjust N such that the averaging period
will be equal to the number of half line-cycles in the
CycleCount register. For example, if the line frequency
is 51Hz, and the CycleCount register is set to 100, N will
be 4000

(100/2)/51 = 3921 during continuous

conversion. N is self-adjusted according to the line
frequency, therefore the averaging period is always
close to the whole number of half line-cycles, and the
low-rate calculation results will minimize ripple and
maximize resolution, especially when the line frequency
varies. Before starting a low-rate conversion in the
Line-cycle Synchronized Averaging mode, the
SampleCount register should not be changed from its
default value of 4000, and bit AFC of the Config2
register must be set. During continuous conversion, the
host processor should not change the SampleCount
register.

4.8.3 RMS Current and Voltage

The root mean square (RMS in

Figure 11

) calculations

are performed on N instantaneous current and voltage
samples using Equation 1:

4.8.4 Active Power

The instantaneous voltage and current samples are
multiplied to obtain the instantaneous power (P1, P2)
(see

Figures 9

and

10

). The product is then averaged

over N samples to compute active power (P1AVG,
P2AVG
).

4.8.5 Reactive Power

Instantaneous reactive power (Q1, Q2) are sample rate
results obtained by multiplying instantaneous current
(I1, I2) by instantaneous quadrature voltage (V1Q,
V2Q
), which are created by phase shifting
instantaneous voltage (V1, V2) 90 degrees using
first-order integrators (see

Figures 9

and

10

). The gain

of these integrators is inversely related to line
frequency, so their gain is corrected by the Epsilon
register, which is based on line frequency. Reactive
power (Q1

AVG

, Q2

AVG

) is generated by integrating the

instantaneous quadrature power over N samples.

4.8.6 Apparent Power

By default, the CS5484 calculates the apparent power
(S1, S2) as the product of RMS voltage and current, as
shown in Equation 2:

The CS5484 also provides an alternate apparent power
calculation method. The alternate apparent power
method uses real power (P1

AVG

, P2

AVG

) and reactive

power (Q1

AVG

, Q2

AVG

) to calculate apparent power.

See Equation 3:

The APCM bit in the Config2 register controls which
method is used for apparent power calculation.

4.8.7 Peak Voltage and Current

Peak current (I1

PEAK

, I2

PEAK

) and peak voltage

(V1

PEAK

,

V2

PEAK

) are calculated over N samples and

recorded in the corresponding channel peak register
documented in the register map. This peak value is up-
dated every N samples.

4.8.8 Power Factor

Power factor (PF1, PF2) is active power divided by ap-
parent power. The sign of the power factor is deter-
mined by the active power. See Equation 4:
