(CLKIN/128). The output of the ADC can be scaled by ± 50% to
perform an overall power calibration or to calibrate the ADC out-
put. While the ADC outputs a 20-bit two’s complement value, the
maximum full-scale positive value from the ADC is limited to
40000h (+262,144 decimal). The maximum full-scale negative
value is limited to C0000h (–262,144 Decimal). If the analog
inputs are overranged, the ADC output code will clamp at these

For example when 7FFh is written to the Active Power Gain
register the ADC output is scaled up by 50%. 7FFh = 2047 deci-

E inputs with more than 1 V differential (0.5 or 0.25, depending
on Channel 1 full-scale selection) will cause the ADC output to
increase towards its full-scale value. However for specified opera-
T tion the differential signal on the analog inputs should not exceed
the recommended value of 1.0 V.
Channel 1 ADC Gain Adjust
The ADC gain in Channel 1 can be adjusted by using the multi-
E plier and Active Power Gain register (APGAIN[11:0]). The
gain of the ADC is adjusted by writing a two’s complement
12-bit word to the Active Power Gain register. Following is
register (MODE[14:13] = 1, 0) to be read by the system master
(MCU). In waveform sampling mode the WSMP bit (Bit 3) in
the Interrupt Enable register must also be set to Logic 1. The
Active Power and Energy calculation will remain uninterrupted
during waveform sampling.
When in waveform sample mode, one of four output sample rates
may be chosen by using Bits 11 and 12 of the Mode register
(WAVSEL1, 0). The output sample rate may be 27.9 kSPS,
14 kSPS, 7 kSPS or 3.5 kSPS—see Mode Register section. The
interrupt request output IRQ signals a new sample availability
by going active low. The timing is shown in Figure 19. The
20-bit waveform samples are transferred from the ADE7756 one
byte (8 bits) at a time, with the most significant byte shifted out
first. The 20-bit data word is right-justified and sign extended
to 24 bits (three bytes)—see Serial Interface section.
