FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
3.1 DYNAMIC METERING RANGE
Accuracy is 0.1% for active energy metering and 0.2% for reactive
energy metering over a dynamic range of 5000:1 (typical). Refer to
Table-3 and Table-4.

3.2 STARTUP AND NO-LOAD POWER
Startup and no-load power thresholds are programmable, both for
active and reactive power. The related registers are listed in Table-5.

The chip will start within 1.2 times of the theoretical startup time of
the configured startup power, if startup power is less than the corre-
sponding power of 20mA when power factor or sinφ is 1.0.
The chip has no-load status bits, the Pnoload/Qnoload bit (EnStatus,
46H). The chip will not output any active pulse (CF1) in active no-load
state. The chip will not output any reactive pulse (CF2) in reactive no-
load state.
3.3 ENERGY REGISTERS
The 90E21/22/23/24 provides energy pulse output CFx (CF1/CF2)
which is proportionate to active/reactive energy. Energy is usually accu-
mulated by adding the CFx pulses in system applications. Alternatively,
the 90E21/22/23/24 provides energy registers. There are forward
(inductive), reverse (capacitive) and absolute energy registers for both
active and reactive energy. Refer to Table-6.

ANenergy, 41H
ATenergy, 42H
RPenergy, 43H
RNenergy, 44H
RTenergy, 45H
Each energy register is cleared after read. The resolution of energy
registers is 0.1CF, i.e. one LSB represents 0.1 energy pulse.
