ecuted. However, an AC signal should not be used for
DC gain calibration.
7.1.3.2 DC Gain Calibration Sequence
Initiate a DC gain calibration. The corresponding gain
register is restored to default (1.0). The DC gain calibra-
tion algorithm averages the channel’s instantaneous
measurements over one computation cycle (N sam-
ples). The average is then divided into 1.0 and the quo-
tient is stored in the corresponding gain register
After the DC gain calibration, the instantaneous register
will read at full-scale whenever the DC level of the input
signal is equal to the level of the DC calibration signal
applied to the inputs during the DC gain calibration.The
HPF option should not be enabled if DC gain calibration
is utilized.
7.1.4 Order of Calibration Sequences
1. If the HPF option is enabled, then any dc compo-
nent that may be present in the selected signal path
will be removed and a DC offset calibration is not re-
quired. However, if the HPF option is disabled the
DC offset calibration sequence should be per-
formed.
When using high-pass filters, it is recommended
that the DC offset register for the corresponding
channel be set to zero. When performing DC offset
calibration, the corresponding gain channel should
be set to one.
2. If an ac offset exist, in the V_RMS or I_RMS calculation,
then the AC offset calibration sequence should be
performed.
3. Perform the gain calibration sequence.
4. Finally, if an AC offset calibration was performed
(step 2), then the AC offset may need to be adjusted
to compensate for the change in gain (step 3). This
can be accomplished by restoring zero to the AC
offset register and then perform an AC offset cali-
bration sequence. The adjustment could also be
done by multiplying the AC offset register value that
was calculated in step 2 by the gain calculated in
step 3 and updating the AC offset register with the
product.
7.2 Phase Compensation
The CS5461A is equipped with phase compensation to
cancel out phase shifts introduced by the measurement
element. Phase Compensation is set by bits PC[6:0] in
the Configuration Register.
The default value of PC[6:0] is zero. With
MCLK = 4.096 MHz and K = 1, the phase compensa-
tion has a range of ±2.8 degrees when the input signals
are 60 Hz. Under these conditions, each step of the
phase compensation register (value of one LSB) is ap-
proximately 0.04 degrees. For values of MCLK other
than 4.096 MHz, the range and step size should be
scaled by 4.096 MHz/(MCLK/K). For power-line fre-
quencies other than 60Hz, the values of the range and
step size of the PC[6:0] bits can be determined by con-
verting the above values from angular measurement
into time-domain (seconds), and then computing the
new range and step size (in degrees) with respect to the
new line frequency.
7.3 Active Power Offset
The Power Offset Register can be used to offset system
power sources that may be resident in the system, but
do not originate from the power-line signal. These
sources of extra energy in the system contribute unde-
sirable and false offsets to the power and energy mea-
surement results. After determining the amount of stray
power, the Power Offset Register can be set to cancel
the effects of this unwanted energy.
