PM9904BPD Datasheet, PDF (1/22 Pages) Sames – Evaluation Board for the SA9904B Energy Metering IC

Evaluation Board for the SA9904B Energy
Metering IC
PM9904BPD
FEATURES
+ Designed to be used together with accompanying
software as fully functional three phase trivector meter.
+ Better than class 1 operation.
+ On board power supply.
+ Two on-board LED’s for active and reactive pulse output.
+ 3 Phase 4 wire configuration.
DESCRIPTION
This application note describes the PM9904BPD evaluation
board and together with the SA9904B data sheet provides a
complete evaluation platform. The SA9904B is an accurate bi-
directional power / energy measurement IC with serial (SPI)
interface measuring active as well as reactive power / energy,
RMS voltage and frequency. More detailed information
specific to the of SA9904B can be found in its datasheet.
The PM9904BPD module is designed for a three-phase four-
wire applications, referenced to neutral. The mains voltages
easily connect to module by way of a Molex connector (SK1).
The 3 on-board current transformers measures the current in
each phase. A simple capacitive power supply supplies the
energy metering IC with power. The LM431 regulators are
used to generate a 5 V supply voltage for the on-board opto-
couplers. Provision has been made to connect an external 5V
power supply to drive the isolated opto-coupler.

+ On-board LCD display.
+ On-board current transformers.
+ Isolated connection to PC parallel port.
+ Easy accessible test pins.
+ Micro-controller plug-in support
The SA9904B forms the energy/power metering front-end of
the module and connects to the SPI bus. Sharing the SPI bus
is the SA8807A LCD driver which is capable of driving 96
segments on a 4 back plane LCD.
The PM9904BPD evaluation board is configured and
calibrated via the parallel port of a PC. The data interface
between the evaluation board and the PC is fully isolated.
The PM9904BPD module can easily be connected to a micro-
controller. The SAMES micro-controller board connects to the
evaluation module by means of JP1 thereby creating a
complete power meter without the PC interface. Physically the
micro-controller board plugs into the evaluation module with its
opto-coupler facing the mains connector (SK1). It shares the
SPI bus with the SA8807A onboard LCD controller.
