INTRODUCTION
METER DESIGN PARAMETERS
The MCP3909 / dsPIC33F 3-Phase Energy Meter Reference Design is a fully
functional energy meter with many advanced features such as harmonic analysis, per
phase distortion information, voltage sag detection, four quadrant energy measure-
ment, and active and reactive power calculation. It uses Microchip’s powerful 16-bit
dsPIC33F Microcontroller Unit (MCU).
The MCP3909 / dsPIC33F 3-Phase Energy Meter Reference Design is unique in the
fact that all calculations take advantage of the dsPIC33F DSP engine, and all output
quantities are calculated in the frequency domain through the use of direct fourier
transforms (DFT). This approach yields a large volume of outputs for a variety of meter
designs, from simple active power only energy meters, to advanced energy meters
requiring harmonic analysis.
Another significant advantage of this design, is that the dsPIC firmware implements a
quasi-synchronous sampling algorithm, eliminating the need for external zero-crossing
detection and PLL (Phase Locked Loop) circuit for the synchronization of ADC samples
to line frequency. The line frequency is measured in software and corrected for mea-
surement errors caused by frequency fluctuations in the power grid. This additional
processing on the dsPIC reduces the overall meter cost by eliminating the requirement
for a PLL circuit.
