GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TERIDIAN 71M6521BE is a highly integrated SOC with an MPU core,
FLASH and LCD driver. TERIDIAN’s patented Single Converter Technol-
ogy with a 22-bit delta-sigma ADC, four analog inputs, digital temperature
compensation, precision voltage reference, battery voltage monitor, and 32-
bit computation engine (CE) supports a wide range of residential metering
applications with very few low-cost external components. A 32kHz crystal
time-base for the entire system further reduces system cost. The IC
supports 2-wire single-phase residential metering along with tamper-
detection mechanisms.
Maximum design flexibility is provided by multiple UARTs, I2C, μWire, up to
14 DIO pins and in-system programmable FLASH memory, which can be
updated with data or application code in operation.
A complete array of ICE and development tools, programming libraries and
reference designs enable rapid development and certification of AMR and
Prepay meters that comply with worldwide electricity metering standards.

HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
Hardware Overview
The TERIDIAN 71M6521BE single-chip energy meter integrates all primary functional blocks required to implement a solid-
state electricity meter. Included on chip are an analog front end (AFE), an independent digital computation engine (CE), an
8051-compatible microprocessor (MPU) which executes one instruction per clock cycle (80515), a voltage reference, a
temperature sensor, LCD drivers, RAM, Flash memory, and a variety of I/O pins. Various current sensor technologies are
supported including Current Transformers (CT) and Resistive Shunts.
In a typical application, the 32-bit compute engine (CE) of the 71M6521BE sequentially processes the samples from the
voltage inputs on pins IA, VA, IB, VB1 and performs calculations to measure active energy (Wh). This measurement is then
accessed by the MPU, processed further and output using the peripheral devices available to the MPU.
Measurements can be displayed on 3.3V LCD commonly used in low temperature environments. Flexible mapping of LCD
display segments will facilitate integration of existing custom LCD. Design trade-off between the number of LCD segments vs.
DIO pins can be implemented in software to accommodate various requirements.
The on-chip digital temperature compensation mechanism includes a temperature sensor and associated controls for
correction of unwanted temperature effects on measurement. Temperature dependent external components such as crystal
oscillator, current sensors, and their corresponding signal conditioning circuits can be characterized and their correction factors
can be programmed to produce electricity meters with exceptional accuracy over the industrial temperature range.
One of the two internal UARTs is adapted to support an Infrared LED with internal drive and sense configuration, and can also
function as a standard UART. The optical output can be modulated at 38kHz. This flexibility makes it possible to implement
AMR meters with an IR interface. A block diagram of the IC is shown in Figure 1. A detailed description of various functional
blocks follows.
Analog Front End (AFE)
The AFE of the 71M6521BE is comprised of an input multiplexer, a delta-sigma A/D converter and a voltage reference.
Input Multiplexer
The input multiplexer supports up to four input signals that are applied to pins IA, VA, IB and VB1 of the device. Additionally,
using the alternate multiplexer selection, it has the ability to select temperature and the battery voltage. The multiplexer can be
operated in two modes:
During a normal multiplexer cycle, the signals from the IA, IB, VA, and VB pins are selected.
During the alternate (ALT) multiplexer cycle, the temperature signal (TEMP) and the battery monitor are selected,
along with the signal sources shown in Table 1. To prevent unnecessary drainage on the battery, the battery monitor
is enabled only with the BME bit (0x2020[6]) in the I/O RAM.
The alternate multiplexer cycles are usually performed infrequently (e. g. every second or so) by the MPU. In order to prevent
disruption of the voltage tracking PLL and voltage allpass networks, VA is not replaced in the ALT multiplexer selections.
Missing samples due to an ALT multiplexer sequence are filled in by the CE.

In a typical application, IA and IB are connected to current transformers that sense the current on each phase of the line
voltage. VA is typically connected to a voltage sensor (resistor divider).
The multiplexer control circuit handles the setting of the multiplexer. The function of the multiplexer control circuit is governed
by the I/O RAM registers MUX_ALT, MUX_DIV and EQU. MUX_DIV controls the number of samples per cycle. It can request 2,
3, or 4 multiplexer states per cycle. Multiplexer states above 4 are reserved and must not be used. The multiplexer always
starts at the beginning of its list and proceeds until MUX_DIV states have been converted.
The MUX_ALT bit requests an alternative multiplexer frame. The bit may be asserted on any MPU cycle and may be
subsequently de-asserted on any cycle including the next one. A rising edge on MUX_ALT will cause the multiplexer control
circuit to wait until the next multiplexer cycle and implement a single alternate cycle.
The multiplexer control circuit also controls the FIR filter initiation and the chopping of the ADC reference voltage, VREF. The
multiplexer control circuits clocked by CK32, the 32768Hz clock from the PLL block, and launches each pass through the CE
program.
A/D Converter (ADC)
A single delta-sigma A/D converter digitizes the voltage and current inputs to the 71M6521BE. The resolution of the ADC is
programmable using the FIR_LEN register as shown in the I/O RAM section. ADC resolution can be selected to be 21 bits
(FIR_LEN=0), or 22 bits (FIR_LEN=1). Conversion time is two cycles of CK32 with FIR_LEN = 0 and three cycles with FIR_LEN
= 1.
In order to provide the maximum resolution, the ADC should be operated with FIR_LEN = 1. Accuracy and timing
specifications in this data sheet are based on FIR_LEN = 1.
Initiation of each ADC conversion is controlled by the multiplexer control circuit as described previously. At the end of each
ADC conversion, the FIR filter output data is stored into the CE DRAM location determined by the multiplexer selection.
FIR Filter
The finite impulse response filter is an integral part of the ADC and it is optimized for use with the multiplexer. The purpose of
the FIR filter is to decimate the ADC output to the desired resolution. At the end of each ADC conversion, the output data is
stored into the fixed CE DRAM location determined by the multiplexer selection. FIR data is stored LSB justified, but shifted left
by nine bits.
Voltage References
The device includes an on-chip precision bandgap voltage reference that incorporates auto-zero techniques. The reference is
trimmed to minimize errors caused by component mismatch and drift. The result is a voltage output with a predictable
temperature coefficient.
The amplifier within the reference is chopper stabilized, i.e. the polarity can be switched by the MPU using the I/O RAM
register CHOP_E (0x2002[5:4]). The two bits in the CHOP_E register enable the MPU to operate the chopper circuit in regular
or inverted operation, or in “toggling” mode. When the chopper circuit is toggled in between multiplexer cycles, DC offsets on
the measured signals will automatically be averaged out.
The general topology of a chopped amplifier is given in Figure 2.

Figure 2: General Topology of a Chopped Amplifier
It is assumed that an offset voltage Voff appears at the positive amplifier input. With all switches, as controlled by CROSS in
the “A” position, the output voltage is:
Voutp – Voutn = G (Vinp + Voff – Vinn) = G (Vinp – Vinn) + G Voff
With all switches set to the “B” position by applying the inverted CROSS signal, the output voltage is:
Voutn – Voutp = G (Vinn – Vinp + Voff) = G (Vinn – Vinp) + G Voff, or
Voutp – Voutn = G (Vinp – Vinn) - G Voff
Thus, when CROSS is toggled, e.g. after each multiplexer cycle, the offset will alternately appear on the output as positive and
negative, which results in the offset effectively being eliminated, regardless of its polarity or magnitude.
When CROSS is high, the hookup of the amplifier input devices is reversed. This preserves the overall polarity of that
amplifier gain, it inverts its input offset. By alternately reversing the connection, the amplifier’s offset is averaged to zero. This
removes the most significant long-term drift mechanism in the voltage reference. The CHOP_E bits control the behavior of
CROSS. The CROSS signal will reverse the amplifier connection in the voltage reference in order to negate the effects of its
offset. On the first CK32 rising edge after the last mux state of its sequence, the mux will wait one additional CK32 cycle
before beginning a new frame. At the beginning of this cycle, the value of CROSS will be updated according to the CHOP_E
bits. The extra CK32 cycle allows time for the chopped VREF to settle. During this cycle, MUXSYNC is held high. The
leading edge of muxsync initiates a pass through the CE program sequence. The beginning of the sequence is the serial
readout of the 4 RTM words.
CHOP_E has 3 states: positive, reverse, and chop. In the ‘positive’ state, CROSS is held low. In the ‘reverse’ state, CROSS is
held high. In the ‘chop’ state, CROSS is toggled near the end of each Mux Frame, as described above. It is desirable that
CROSS take on alternate values at the beginning of each Mux cycle. For this reason, if ‘chop’ state is selected, CROSS will
not toggle at the end of the last Mux cycle in a SUM cycle.
The internal bias voltage VBIAS (typically 1.6V) is used by the ADC when measuring the temperature and battery monitor
signals.
Temperature Sensor
The 71M6521BE includes an on-chip temperature sensor implemented as a bandgap reference. It is used to determine the die
temperature The MPU may request an alternate multiplexer cycle containing the temperature sensor output by asserting
MUX_ALT.
The primary use of the temperature data is to determine the magnitude of compensation required to offset the thermal drift in
the system (see section titled “Temperature Compensation”).

Battery Monitor
The battery voltage is measured by the ADC during alternative multiplexer frames if the BME (Battery Measure Enable) bit in
the I/O RAM is set. While BME is set, an on-chip 45kΩ load resistor is applied to the battery, and a scaled fraction of the
battery voltage is applied to the ADC input. After each alternative MUX frame, the result of the ADC conversion is available at
CE DRAM address 07. BME is ignored and assumed zero when system power is not available (V1 < VBIAS). See the Battery
Monitor section of the Electrical Specifications for details regarding the ADC LSB size and the conversion accuracy.
Functional Description
The AFE functions as a data acquisition system, controlled by the MPU. The main signals (IA, VA, IB, VB) are sampled and
the ADC counts obtained are stored in CE DRAM where they can be accessed by the CE and, if necessary, by the MPU.
Alternate multiplexer cycles are initiated less frequently by the MPU to gather access to the slow temperature and battery
signals.

Digital Computation Engine (CE)
The CE, a dedicated 32-bit signal processor, performs the precision computations necessary to accurately measure energy.
The CE calculations and processes include:
Multiplication of each current sample with its associated voltage sample to obtain the energy per sample (when
multiplied with the constant sample time).
Frequency-insensitive delay cancellation on all channels (to compensate for the delay between samples caused by
the multiplexing scheme).
Pulse generation.
Monitoring of the input signal frequency (for frequency and phase information).
Monitoring of the input signal amplitude (for sag detection).
Scaling of the processed samples based on calibration coefficients.
The CE program resides in flash memory. Common access to flash memory by CE and MPU is controlled by a memory share
circuit. Each CE instruction word is two bytes long. Allocated flash space for the CE program cannot exceed 1024 words
(2KB). The CE program counter begins a pass through the CE code each time multiplexer state 0 begins. The code pass ends
when a HALT instruction is executed. For proper operation, the code pass must be completed before the multiplexer cycle
ends (see System Timing Summary in the Functional Description Section).

V1.0 © 2005-2008 TERIDIAN Semiconductor Corporation Page: 13 of 97
The CE program must begin on a 1Kbyte boundary of the flash address. The I/O RAM register CE_LCTN[4:0] defines which
1KB boundary contains the CE code. Thus, the first CE instruction is located at 1024*CE_LCTN[4:0].
The CE DRAM can be accessed by the FIR filter block, the RTM circuit, the CE, and the MPU. Assigned time slots are re-
served for FIR, RTM, and MPU, respectively, to prevent bus contention for CE DRAM data access. Holding registers are used
to convert 8-bit wide MPU data to/from 32-bit wide CE DRAM data, and wait states are inserted as needed, depending on the
frequency of CKMPU.
The CE DRAM is 128 32-bit words. The MPU can read and write the CE DRAM as the primary means of data communication
between the two processors.
Table 2 shows the CE DRAM addresses allocated to analog inputs from the AFE.

Table 2: CE DRAM Locations for ADC Results
The CE of the 71M6521BE is aided by support hardware that facilitates implementation of equations, pulse counters, and
accumulators. This support hardware is controlled through I/O RAM locations EQU (equation assist), DIO_PV and DIO_PW
(pulse count assist), and PRE_SAMPS and SUM_CYCLES (accumulation assist). PRE_SAMPS and SUM_CYCLES support a dual
level accumulation scheme where the first accumulator accumulates results from PRE_SAMPS samples and the second accu-
mulator accumulates up to SUM_CYCLES of the first accumulator results. The integration time for each energy output is
PRE_SAMPS * SUM_CYCLES/2520.6 (with MUX_DIV = 1). CE hardware issues the XFER_BUSY interrupt when the
accumulation is complete.
Meter Equations
Compute Engine (CE) firmware for residential meter configurations implements the calculations for equation 0 for a single-
element, 2-wire, 1-phase meter with neutral current sense and tamper detection. The energy for element 0 is determined by
VA*IA, and the energy for element 1 is determined by VA*IB.
Real-Time Monitor
The CE contains a Real-Time Monitor (RTM), which can be programmed through the UART to monitor four selectable CE
DRAM locations at full sample rate. The four monitored locations are serially output to the TMUXOUT pin via the digital output
multiplexer at the beginning of each CE code pass. The RTM can be enabled and disabled with RTM_EN. The RTM output is
clocked by CKTEST. Each RTM word is clocked out in 35 cycles and contains a leading flag bit. See the Functional
Description section for the RTM output format. RTM is low when not in use.
Pulse Generator
The chip contains a pulse generator that creates low-jitter Wh pulses at a rate set by the CE.
The I/O RAM bit DIO_PW, as described in the Digital I/O section, can be programmed to route WPULSE to the output pin
DIO6. Pulses can also be output on OPT_TX (see OPT_TXE[1:0] for details).
The value of PLS_INTERVAL depends on the sample rate (nominal 2520Hz) and the number of times the pulse generator is
executed in the CE code. Changing these values would require redesign of all CE filters and/or modification of the CE pulse
generator code. Since these numbers are fixed for the CE code supplied by TERIDIAN, the value of PLS_INTERVAL is also
fixed, to a value of 0x81.

On-chip hardware provides a maximum pulse width feature: PLS_MAXWIDTH[7:0] selects a maximum negative pulse width to
be ‘Nmax’ updates according to the formula: Nmax = (2*PLS_MAXWIDTH+1). If PLS_MAXWIDTH = 255, no width checking is
performed.
Given that PLS_INTERVAL = 81, the maximum pulse width is determined by:
Maximum Pulse Width = (2 * PLS_MAXWIDTH +1) * 81*4*203ns = 65.8µs + PLS_MAXWIDTH * 131.5µs
The CE pulse output polarity is programmable to be either positive or negative. Pulse polarity may be inverted with PLS_INV.
When this bit is set, the pulses are active high, rather than the more usual active low.
CE Functional Overview
The ADC processes one sample per channel per multiplexer cycle. Figure 4 shows the timing of the samples taken during one
multiplexer cycle.
The number of samples processed during one accumulation cycle is controlled by the I/O RAM registers PRE_SAMPS
(0x2001[7:6]) and SUM_CYCLES (0x2001[5:0]). The integration time for each energy output is
PRE_SAMPS * SUM_CYCLES / 2520.6, where 2520.6 is the sample rate [Hz]
For example, PRE_SAMPS = 42 and SUM_CYCLES = 50 will establish 2100 samples per accumulation cycle. PRE_SAMPS = 100
and SUM_CYCLES = 21 will result in the exact same accumulation cycle of 2100 samples or 833ms. After an accumulation
cycle is completed, the XFER_BUSY interrupt signals to the MPU that accumulated data are available.

Figure 5: Accumulation Interval
Figure 5 shows the accumulation interval resulting from PRE_SAMPS = 42 and SUM_CYCLES = 50, consisting of 2100 samples
of 397µs each, followed by the XFER_BUSY interrupt. The sampling in this example is applied to a 50Hz signal.
There is no correlation between the line signal frequency and the choice of PRE_SAMPS or SUM_CYCLES (even though when
SUM_CYCLES = 42 one set of SUM_CYCLES happens to sample a period of 16.6ms). Furthermore, sampling does not have to
start when the line voltage crosses the zero line, and the length of the accumulation interval need not be an integer multiple of
the signal cycles.
It is important to note that the length of the accumulation interval, as determined by NACC, the product of SUM_CYCLES and
PRE_SAMPS, is not an exact multiple of 1000ms. For example, if SUM_CYCLES = 60, and PRE_SAMPS = 00 (42), the
resulting accumulation interval is:

80515 MPU Core
The 71M6521BE includes an 80515 MPU (8-bit, 8051-compatible) that processes most instructions in one clock cycle. Using a
5MHz clock results in a processing throughput of 5 MIPS. The 80515 architecture eliminates redundant bus states and im-
plements parallel execution of fetch and execution phases. Normally a machine cycle is aligned with a memory fetch, there-
fore, most of the 1-byte instructions are performed in a single cycle. This leads to an 8x performance (in average) improvement
(in terms of MIPS) over the Intel 8051 device running at the same clock frequency.
Actual processor clocking speed can be adjusted to the total processing demand of the application (metering calculations,
AMR management, memory management, LCD driver management and I/O management) using the I/O RAM register
MPU_DIV[2:0].
Typical measurement and metering functions based on the results provided by the internal 32-bit compute engine (CE) are
available for the MPU as part of TERIDIAN’s standard library. A standard ANSI “C” 80515-application programming interface
library is available to help reduce design cycle.
Memory Organization
The 80515 MPU core incorporates the Harvard architecture with separate code and data spaces.
Memory organization in the 80515 is similar to that of the industry standard 8051. There are three memory areas: Program
memory (Flash), external data memory (XRAM), physically consisting of XRAM, CE DRAM, and I/O RAM, and internal data
memory (Internal RAM). Table 3 shows the memory map.

Table 3: Memory Map
Internal and External Data Memory: Both internal and external data memory are physically located on the 71M6521BE IC.
“External” data memory is only external to the 80515 MPU core.
Program Memory: The 80515 can theoretically address up to 64KB of program memory space from 0x0000 to 0xFFFF.
Program memory is read when the MPU fetches instructions or performs a MOVC operation.
After reset, the MPU starts program execution from location 0x0000. The lower part of the program memory includes reset and
interrupt vectors. The interrupt vectors are spaced at 8-byte intervals, starting from 0x0003.
External Data Memory: While the 80515 is capable of addressing up to 64KB of external data memory in the space from
0x0000 to 0xFFFF, only the memory ranges shown in Error! Reference source not found. contain physical memory. The
80515 writes into external data memory when the MPU executes a MOVX @Ri,A or MOVX @DPTR,A instruction. The MPU
reads external data memory by executing a MOVX A,@Ri or MOVX A,@DPTR instruction (SFR USR2 provides the upper 8
bytes for the MOVX A,@Ri instruction).
Clock Stretching: MOVX instructions can access fast or slow external RAM and external peripherals. The three low order bits
of the CKCON register define the stretch memory cycles. Setting all the CKCON stretch bits to one allows access to very slow
external RAM or external peripherals.

Table 4 shows how the signals of the External Memory Interface change when stretch values are set from 0 to 7. The widths of
the signals are counted in MPU clock cycles. The post-reset state of the CKCON register, which is in bold in the table, performs
the MOVX instructions with a stretch value equal to 1.

Table 4: Stretch Memory Cycle Width
There are two types of instructions, differing in whether they provide an eight-bit or sixteen-bit indirect address to the external
data RAM.
In the first type (MOVX A,@Ri), the contents of R0 or R1, in the current register bank, provide the eight lower-ordered bits of
address. The eight high-ordered bits of address are specified with the USR2 SFR. This method allows the user paged access
(256 pages of 256 bytes each) to all ranges of the external data RAM. In the second type of MOVX instruction (MOVX
A,@DPTR), the data pointer generates a sixteen-bit address. This form is faster and more efficient when accessing very large
data arrays (up to 64 Kbytes), since no additional instructions are needed to set up the eight high ordered bits of address.
It is possible to mix the two MOVX types. This provides the user with four separate data pointers, two with direct access and
two with paged access to the entire 64KB of external memory range.
Dual Data Pointer: The Dual Data Pointer accelerates the block moves of data. The standard DPTR is a 16-bit register that is
used to address external memory or peripherals. In the 80515 core, the standard data pointer is called DPTR, the second data
pointer is called DPTR1. The data pointer select bit chooses the active pointer. The data pointer select bit is located at the LSB
of the DPS register (DPS.0). DPTR is selected when DPS.0 = 0 and DPTR1 is selected when DPS.0 = 1.
The user switches between pointers by toggling the LSB of the DPS register. All DPTR-related instructions use the currently
selected data pointer for any activity.
The second data pointer may not be supported by certain compilers.
Internal Data Memory: The Internal data memory provides 256 bytes (0x00 to 0xFF) of data memory. The internal data
memory address is always one byte wide and can be accessed by either direct or indirect addressing. The Special Function
Registers occupy the upper 128 bytes. This SFR area is available only by direct addressing. Indirect addressing
accesses the upper 128 bytes of Internal RAM.

Page: 18 of 97 © 2005-2008 TERIDIAN Semiconductor Corporation V1.0
Internal Data Memory: The lower 128 bytes contain working registers and bit-addressable memory. The lower 32 bytes form
four banks of eight registers (R0-R7). Two bits on the program memory status word (PSW) select which bank is in use. The
next 16 bytes form a block of bit-addressable memory space at bit addressees 0x00-0x7F. All of the bytes in the lower 128
bytes are accessible through direct or indirect addressing. Table 5 shows the internal data memory map.

Port Registers: The I/O ports are controlled by Special Function Registers P0, P1, and P2. The contents of the SFR can be
observed on corresponding pins on the chip. Writing a ‘1’ to any of the ports (see Table 10) causes the corresponding pin to be
at high level (V3P3), and writing a ‘0’ causes the corresponding pin to be held at low level (GND). The data direction registers
DIR0, DIR1, and DIR2 define individual pins as input or output pins (see section Digital I/O for details).
Register SFR
Address R/W Description
P0 0x80 R/W Register for port 0 read and write operations (pins DIO4…DIO7)
DIR0 0xA2 R/W Data direction register for port 0. Setting a bit to 1 means that the corresponding pin is
an output.
P1 0x90 R/W Register for port 1 read and write operations (pins DIO8…DIO11, DIO14…DIO15)
DIR1 0x91 R/W Data direction register for port 1.
P2 0xA0 R/W Register for port 2 read and write operations (pins DIO16…DIO17)
DIR2 0xA1 R/W Data direction register for port 2.
Table 10: Port Registers
All DIO ports on the chip are bi-directional. Each of them consists of a Latch (SFR ‘P0’ to ‘P2’), an output driver, and an input
buffer, therefore the MPU can output or read data through any of these ports. Even if a DIO pin is configured as an output, the
state of the pin can still be read by the MPU, for example when counting pulses issued via DIO pins that are under
CE control.
The technique of reading the status of or generating interrupts based on DIO pins configured as outputs, can be
used to implement pulse counting.

Instruction Set
All instructions of the generic 8051 microcontroller are supported. A complete list of the instruction set and of the associated
op-codes is contained in the 71M6521 Software User’s Guide (SUG).
UART
The 71M6521BE includes a UART (UART0) that can be programmed to communicate with a variety of AMR modules. A
second UART (UART1) is connected to the optical port, as described in the optical port description.
The UART is a dedicated 2-wire serial interface, which can communicate with an external host processor at up to 38,400 bits/s
((with MPU clock = 1.2288MHz). The operation of each pin is as follows:
RX: Serial input data are applied at this pin. Conforming to RS-232 standard, the bytes are input LSB first.
TX: This pin is used to output the serial data. The bytes are output LSB first.

The 71M6521BE has several UART-related registers for the control and buffering of serial data. All UART transfers are pro-
grammable for parity enable, parity, 2 stop bits/1 stop bit and XON/XOFF options for variable communication baud rates from
300 to 38400 bps. Table 12 shows how the baud rates are calculated. Table 13 shows the selectable UART operation modes.

Table 13: UART Modes
Parity of serial data is available through the P flag of the accumulator. Seven-bit serial modes with parity, such as
those used by the FLAG protocol, can be simulated by setting and reading bit 7 of 8-bit output data. Seven-bit serial
modes without parity can be simulated by setting bit 7 to a constant 1. 8-bit serial modes with parity can be simulated
by setting and reading the 9th bit, using the control bits TB80 (S0CON.3) and TB81 (S1CON.3) in the S0CON and S1CON
SFRs for transmit and RB81 (S1CON.2) for receive operations. SM20 (S0CON.5) and SM21 (S1CON.5) can be used as
handshake signals for inter-processor communication in multi-processor systems.

Timers and Counters
The 80515 has two 16-bit timer/counter registers: Timer 0 and Timer 1. These registers can be configured for counter or timer
operations.
In timer mode, the register is incremented every machine cycle meaning that it counts up after every 12 periods of the MPU
clock signal.
In counter mode, the register is incremented when the falling edge is observed at the corresponding input signal T0 or T1 (T0
and T1 are the timer gating inputs derived from certain DIO pins, see the DIO Ports chapter). Since it takes two machine
cycles to recognize a 1-to-0 event, the maximum input count rate is 1/2 of the oscillator frequency. There are no restrictions on
the duty cycle, however to ensure proper recognition of 0 or 1 state, an input should be stable for at least 1 machine cycle.
The timers/counters are controlled by the TCON Register

WD Timer (Software Watchdog Timer)
The software watchdog timer is a 16-bit counter that is incremented once every 24 or 384 clock cycles. After a reset, the
watchdog timer is disabled and all registers are set to zero. The watchdog consists of a 16-bit counter (WDT), a reload register
(WDTREL), prescalers (by 2 and by 16), and control logic. Once the watchdog is started, it cannot be stopped unless the
internal reset signal becomes active.
Note: It is recommended to use the hardware watchdog timer instead of the software watchdog timer.
WD Timer Start Procedure: The WDT is started by setting the SWDT flag. When the WDT register enters the state 0x7CFF,
an asynchronous WDTS signal will become active. The signal WDTS sets bit 6 in the IP0 register and requests a reset state.
WDTS is cleared either by the reset signal or by changing the state of the WDT timer.
Refreshing the WD Timer: The watchdog timer must be refreshed regularly to prevent the reset request signal from becoming
active. This requirement imposes an obligation on the programmer to issue two instructions. The first instruction sets WDT and
the second instruction sets SWDT. The maximum delay allowed between setting WDT and SWDT is 12 clock cycles. If this
period has expired and SWDT has not been set, the WDT is automatically reset, otherwise the watchdog timer is reloaded with
the content of the WDTREL register and the WDT is automatically reset. Since the WDT requires exact timing, firmware needs
to be designed with special care in order to avoid unwanted WDT resets.
TERIDIAN strongly discourages the use of the software WDT.

Interrupts
The 80515 provides 11 interrupt sources with four priority levels. Each source has its own request flag(s) located in a special
function register (TCON, IRCON, and SCON). Each interrupt requested by the corresponding flag can be individually enabled or
disabled by the enable bits in SFRs IEN0, IEN1, and IEN2.
External interrupts are the interrupts external to the 80515 core, i.e. signals that originate in other parts of the
71M6521BE, for example the CE, DIO, EEPROM interface.
Interrupt Overview
When an interrupt occurs, the MPU will vector to the predetermined address as shown in Table 52. Once interrupt service has
begun, it can be interrupted only by a higher priority interrupt. The interrupt service is terminated by a return from instruction,
"RETI". When an RETI is performed, the processor will return to the instruction that would have been next when the interrupt
occurred.

When an interrupt occurs, the MPU will vector to the predetermined address as shown in Table 52. Once interrupt service has
begun, it can be interrupted only by a higher priority interrupt. The interrupt service is terminated by a return from instruction,
"RETI". When a RETI instruction is performed, the processor will return to the instruction that would have been next when the
interrupt occurred.
When the interrupt condition occurs, the processor will also indicate this by setting a flag bit. This bit is set regardless of
whether the interrupt is enabled or disabled. Each interrupt flag is sampled once per machine cycle, then samples are polled
by the hardware. If the sample indicates a pending interrupt when the interrupt is enabled, then the interrupt request flag is set.
On the next instruction cycle, the interrupt will be acknowledged by hardware forcing an LCALL to the appropriate vector
address, if the following conditions are met:
No interrupt of equal or higher priority is already in progress.
An instruction is currently being executed and is not completed.
The instruction in progress is not RETI or any write access to the registers IEN0, IEN1, IEN2, IP0 or IP1.

External Interrupts
The 71M6521BE MPU allows seven external interrupts. These are connected as shown in Table 45. The direction of interrupts
2 and 3 is programmable in the MPU. Interrupts 2 and 3 should be programmed for falling sensitivity. The generic 8051 MPU
literature states that interrupt 4 through 6 are defined as rising edge sensitive. Thus, the hardware signals attached to
interrupts 5 and 6 are inverted to achieve the edge polarity shown in Table 45.

0 Digital I/O High Priority see DIO_Rx automatic
1 Digital I/O Low Priority see DIO_Rx automatic
2 FWCOL0, FWCOL1 falling automatic
3 CE_BUSY falling automatic
4 PLL_OK (rising), PLL_OK (falling) rising automatic
5 EEPROM busy falling automatic
6 XFER_BUSY falling manual
Table 45: External MPU Interrupts
FWCOLx interrupts occur when the CE collides with a flash write attempt. See the flash write description for more detail.
SFR (special function register) enable bits must be set to permit any of these interrupts to occur. Likewise, each interrupt has
its own flag bit, which is set by the interrupt hardware, and reset by the MPU interrupt handler. Note that XFER_BUSY,
FWCOL0, FWCOL1, PLLRISE, PLLFALL, have their own enable and flag bits in addition to the interrupt 6, 4, and 2 enable and
flag bits.
IE0 through IEX6 are cleared automatically when the hardware vectors to the interrupt handler. The other flags, IE_XFER
through IE_PB, are cleared by writing a zero to them. Since these bits are in a bit-addressable SFR byte, common practice
would be to clear them with a bit operation. This is to be avoided. The hardware implements bit operations as a byte wide read-
modify-write hardware macro. If an interrupt occurs after the read, but before the write, its flag will be cleared unintentionally.
The proper way to clear the flag bits is to write a byte mask consisting of all ones except for a zero in the location of the bit to
be cleared. The flag bits are configured in hardware to ignore ones written to them.

The AUTOWAKE and PB flag bits are shown in Table 46 because they behave similarly to interrupt flags, even though they are
not actually related to an interrupt. These bits are set by hardware when the MPU wakes from a push button or wake timeout.
The bits are reset by writing a zero. Note that the PB flag is set whenever the PB is pushed, even if the part is already awake.
Each interrupt has its own flag bit, which is set by the interrupt hardware and is reset automatically by the MPU interrupt
handler (0 through 5). XFER_BUSY has its own enable and flag bit in addition to the interrupt 6 enable and flag bit (see Table
46), and these interrupts must be cleared by the MPU software.
The external interrupts are connected as shown in Table 46. The polarity of interrupts 2 and 3 is programmable in the MPU via
the I3FR and I2FR bits in T2CON. Interrupts 2 and 3 should be programmed for falling sensitivity. The generic 8051 MPU
literature states that interrupts 4 through 6 are defined as rising edge sensitive. Thus, the hardware signals attached to
interrupts 5 and 6 are inverted to achieve the edge polarity shown in Table 46.
SFR (special function register) enable bits must be set to permit any of these interrupts to occur. Likewise, each interrupt has
its own flag bit that is set by the interrupt hardware and is reset automatically by the MPU interrupt handler (0 through 5).
Interrupt Priority Level Structure
All interrupt sources are combined in groups, as shown in Table 47.
Each group of interrupt sources can be programmed individually to one of four priority levels by setting or clearing one bit in the
special function register IP0 and one in IP1. If requests of the same priority level are received simultaneously, an internal
polling sequence as per Table 51 determines which request is serviced first.
An overview of the interrupt structure is given in Figure 6.

IEN enable bits must be set to permit any of these interrupts to occur. Likewise, each interrupt has its own flag bit that is set by
the interrupt hardware and is reset automatically by the MPU interrupt handler (0 through 5). XFER_BUSY has its own enable

software.

On-Chip Resources
Oscillator
The 71M6521BE oscillator drives a standard 32.768kHz watch crystal. These crystals are accurate and do not require a high-
current oscillator circuit. The 71M6521BE oscillator has been designed specifically to handle these crystals and is compatible
with their high impedance and limited power handling capability.
PLL and Internal Clocks
Timing for the device is derived from the 32.768kHz oscillator output. On-chip timing functions include the MPU master clock
and the delta-sigma sample clock. In addition, the MPU has two general counter/timers (see MPU section).
The ADC master clock, CKADC, is generated by an on-chip PLL. It multiplies the oscillator output frequency (CK32) by 150.
The CE clock frequency is always CK32 * 150, or 4.9152MHz, where CK32 is the 32kHz clock. The MPU clock frequency is
determined by MPU_DIV and can be 4.9152MHz *2-MPU_DIV Hz where MPU_DIV varies from 0 to 7 (MPU_DIV is 0 on power-
up). This makes the MPU clock scalable from 4.9152MHz down to 38.4kHz. The circuit also generates a 2x MPU clock for use
by the emulator. This clock is not generated when ECK_DIS is asserted by the MPU.
The setting of MPU_DIV is maintained when the device transitions to BROWNOUT mode, but the time base in BROWNOUT
mode is 28,672Hz.
Temperature Sensor
The device includes an on-chip temperature sensor for determining the temperature of the bandgap reference. The MPU may
request an alternate multiplexer frame containing the temperature sensor output by asserting MUX_ALT. The primary use of
the temperature data is to determine the magnitude of compensation required to offset the thermal drift in the system (see
section titled “Temperature Compensation”).
Physical Memory
Flash Memory: The 71M6521 includes 8KB of on-chip flash memory. The flash memory primarily contains MPU and CE
program code. It also contains images of the CE DRAM, MPU RAM, and I/O RAM. On power-up, before enabling the CE, the
MPU copies these images to their respective locations.
Allocated flash space for the CE program cannot exceed 1024 words (2KB). The CE program must begin on a 1KB boundary
of the flash address. The CE_LCTN[4:0] word defines which 1KB boundary contains the CE code. Thus, the first CE instruction
is located at 1024*CE_LCTN[4:0]. The CE_LCTN[4:0] register must be set before the CE is enabled.
The flash memory is segmented into 512 byte individually erasable pages.
The CE engine cannot access its program memory when flash write occurs. Thus, the flash write procedure is to begin a
sequence of flash writes when CE_BUSY falls (CE_BUSY interrupt) and to make sure there is sufficient time to complete the
sequence before CE_BUSY rises again. The actual time for the flash write operation will depend on the exact number of cycles
required by the CE program. Typically (CE program is 512 instructions, mux frame is 13 CK32 cycles), there will be 200µs of
flash write time, enough for 4 bytes of flash write. If the CE code is shorter, there will be even more time.
Two interrupts warn of collisions between the 8051 firmware and the CE timing. If a flash write is attempted while the CE is
busy, the flash write will not execute and the FW_COL0 interrupt will be issued. If a flash write is still in progress when the CE
would otherwise begin a code pass, the code pass is skipped, the write is completed, and the FW_COL1 interrupt is issued.
The bit FLASH66Z (see I/O RAM table) defines the speed for accessing flash memory. To minimize supply current draw, this bit
should be set to 1.
Flash erasure is initiated by writing a specific data pattern to specific SFR registers in the proper sequence. These special
pattern/sequence requirements prevent inadvertent erasure of the flash memory.

The mass erase sequence is:
1. Write 1 to the FLSH_MEEN bit (SFR address 0xB2[1].
2. Write pattern 0xAA to FLSH_ERASE (SFR address 0x94)
The mass erase cycle can only be initiated when the ICE port is enabled.
The page erase sequence is:
1. Write the page address to FLSH_PGADR (SFR address 0xB7[7:1]
2. Write pattern 0x55 to FLSH_ERASE (SFR address 0x94)
The MPU may write to the flash memory. This is one of the non-volatile storage options available to the user in addition to
external EEPROM.
FLSH_PWE (flash program write enable) differentiates 80515 data store instructions (MOVX@DPTR,A) between Flash and
XRAM writes.
Updating individual bytes in flash memory:
The original state of a flash byte is 0xFF (all ones). Once, a value other than 0xFF is written to a flash memory cell, overwriting
with a different value usually requires that the cell is erased first. Since cells cannot be erased individually, the page has to be
copied to RAM, followed by a page erase. After this, the page can be updated in RAM and then written back to the flash
memory.
MPU RAM: The 71M6521BE includes 2K-bytes of static RAM memory on-chip (XRAM) plus 256-bytes of internal RAM in the
MPU core. The 2K-bytes of static RAM are used for data storage during normal MPU operations.
CE DRAM: The CE DRAM is the working data memory of the CE (128 32-bit words). The MPU can read and write the CE
DRAM as the primary means of data communication between the two processors.
Optical Interface
The device includes an interface to implement an IR/optical port. The pin OPT_Tx is designed to directly drive an external LED
for transmitting data on an optical link. The pin OPT_RX is designed to sense the input from an external photo detector used
as the receiver for the optical link. These two pins are connected to a dedicated UART port (UART1).
The OPT_TX and OPT_RX pins can be inverted with configuration bits OPT_TXINV and OPT_RXINV, respectively.
Additionally, the OPT_TX output may be modulated at 38kHz. Modulation is available when system power is present (i.e. not
in BROWNOUT mode). The OPT_TXMOD bit enables modulation. Duty cycle is controlled by OPT_FDC[1:0], which can select
50%, 25%, 12.5%, and 6.25% duty cycle. 6.25% duty cycle means OPT_TX is low for 6.25% of the period. Figure 7 illustrates
the OPT_TX generator.
When not needed for the optical UART, the OPT_TX pin can alternatively be configured as DIO2 or WPULSE. The
configuration bits are OPT_TXE[1:0]. Likewise, OPT_RX can alternately be configured as DIO_1. Its control is OPT_RXDIS.

Digital I/O
The device includes up to 14 pins of general purpose digital I/O. These pins are compatible with 5V inputs (no current-limiting
resistors are needed). Some are dual function that can alternatively be used as LCD drivers (DIO4-11, 14-17) and some share
functions with the optical port (DIO1, DIO2). On reset or power-up, all DIO pins are inputs until they are configured for the
desired direction under MPU control. The pins are configured by the DIO registers and by the five bits of the LCD_NUM
register (located in I/O RAM). Once declared as DIO, each pin can be configured independently as an input or output with the
DIO_DIRn bits. A 3-bit configuration word, DIO_Rx, can be used for certain pins, when configured as DIO, to individually assign
an internal resource such as an interrupt or a timer control. Table 53 lists the direction registers and configurability associated
with each group of DIO pins. Table 54 shows the configuration for a DIO pin through its associated bit in its DIO_DIR register.
Tables showing the relationship between LCD_NUM and the available segment/DIO pins can be found in the Applications
section and in the I/O RAM Description under LCD_NUM[4:0].

Additionally, if DIO6 is declared an output, it can be configured as dedicated pulse output (WPULSE = DIO6) using the
DIO_PW register. In this case, DIO6 is under CE control. DIO4 and DIO5 can be configured to implement the EEPROM
Interface.
The PB pin is a dedicated digital input. If the optical UART is not used, OPT_TX and OPT_RX can be configured as dedicated
DIO pins (DIO1, DIO2, see Optical Interface section).
A 3-bit configuration word, I/O RAM register, DIO_Rx (0x2009[2:0] through 0x200E[6:4]) can be used for certain pins, when
configured as DIO, to individually assign an internal resource such as an interrupt or a timer control (see Table 55 for DIO pins
available for this option). This way, DIO pins can be tracked even if they are configured as outputs.
Tracking DIO pins configured as outputs is useful for pulse counting without external hardware.
When driving LEDs, relay coils etc., the DIO pins should sink the current into GNDD (as shown in Figure 8,
right), not source it from V3P3D (as shown in Figure 8, left). This is due to the resistance of the internal
switch that connects V3P3D to either V3P3SYS or VBAT.
When configured as inputs, the dual-function (DIO/SEG) pins should not be pulled above V3P3SYS in
MISSION and above VBAT in LCD and BROWNOUT modes. Doing so will distort the LCD waveforms of the
other pins. This limitation applies to any pin that can be configured as a LCD driver.

LCD Drivers
The device contains 20 dedicated LCD segment drivers in addition to the 15 multi-use pins described above. Thus, the device
is capable of driving between 80 to 140 pixels of LCD display with 25% duty cycle (or 60 to 105 pixels with 33% duty cycle). At
eight pixels per digit, this corresponds to 10 to 17 digits.
The LCD drivers are grouped into 4 commons and 35 segment drivers. The LCD interface is flexible and can drive either digit
segments or enunciator symbols.
Segment drivers SEG18 and SEG19 can be configured to blink at either 0.5Hz or 1Hz. The blink rate is controlled by LCD_Y.
There can be up to four pixels/segments connected to each of these drivers. LCD_BLKMAP18[3:0] and LCD_BLKMAP19[3:0]
identify which pixels, if any, are to blink.
LCD interface memory is powered by the non-volatile supply. The bits of the LCD memory are preserved in
LCD and SLEEP modes, even if their pin is not configured as SEG. In this case, they can be useful as general-
purpose non-volatile storage.
Battery Monitor
The battery voltage is measured by the ADC during alternative MUX frames if the BME (Battery Measure Enable) bit is set.
While BME is set, an on-chip 45kΩ load resistor is applied to the battery and a scaled fraction of the battery voltage is applied
to the ADC input. After each alternative MUX frame, the result of the ADC conversion is available at CE DRAM address 0x07.
BME is ignored and assumed zero when system power is not available. See the Battery Monitor section of the Electrical
Specification section for details regarding the ADC LSB size and the conversion accuracy.
EEPROM Interface
The 71M6521BE provides hardware support for either type of EEPROM interface, a two-pin interface and a three-pin interface.
The interfaces use the EECTRL and EEDATA registers for communication.
Two-Pin EEPROM Interface
The dedicated 2-pin serial interface communicates with external EEPROM devices. The interface is multiplexed onto DIO4
(SCK) and DIO5 (SDA) controlled by the DIO_EEX bit (see I/O RAM Table). The MPU communicates with the interface
through two SFR registers: EEDATA and EECTRL. If the MPU wishes to write a byte of data to EEPROM, it places the data in
EEDATA and then writes the ‘Transmit’ command (CMD = 0011) to EECTRL. The write to EECTRL initiates the transmit
operation. The transmit operation is finished when the BUSY bit falls. INT5 is also asserted when BUSY falls. The MPU can
then check the RX_ACK bit to see if the EEPROM acknowledged the transmission.
71M6521BE
Energy Meter IC
DATA SHEET
JANUARY 2008
Page: 42 of 97 © 2005-2008 TERIDIAN Semiconductor Corporation V1.0
A byte is read by writing the ‘Receive’ command (CMD = 0001) to EECTRL and waiting for the BUSY bit to fall. Upon comple-
tion, the received data is in EEDATA. The serial transmit and receive clock is 78kHz during each transmission, and the clock is
held in a high state until the next transmission. The bits in EECTRL are shown in Table 56.
The EEPROM interface can also be operated by controlling the DIO4 and DIO5 pins directly. However, controlling
DIO4 and DIO5 directly is discouraged, because it may tie up the MPU to the point where it may become too
busy to process interrupts.

Table 56: EECTRL Status Bits
Three-Wire EEPROM Interface
A 500kHz three-wire interface, using SDATA, SCK, and a DIO pin for CS is available. The interface is selected with
DIO_EEX=3. The same 2-wire EECTRL register is used, except the bits are reconfigured, as shown in Table 57. When EECTRL
is written, up to 8 bits from EEDATA are either written to the EEPROM or read from the EEPROM, depending on the values of
the EECTRL bits.The timing diagrams in Figure 9 through Figure 13 describe the 3-wire EEPROM interface behavior. All
commands begin when the EECTRL register is written. Transactions start by first raising the DIO pin that is connected to CS.
Multiple 8-bit or less commands such as those shown in Figure 9 through Figure 13 are then sent via EECTRL and EEDATA.
When the transaction is finished, CS must be lowered. At the end of a Read transaction, the EEPROM will be driving SDATA,
but will transition to HiZ (high impedance) when CS falls. The firmware should then immediately issue a write command with
CNT=0 and HiZ=0 to take control of SDATA and force it to a low-Z state.

the low order bits of EEDATA. If RD=0, CNT bits will be sent MSB first to
EEPROM, shifted out of EEDATA’s MSB. If CNT is zero, SDATA will
simply obey the HiZ bit.

Hardware Watchdog Timerre Watchdog Timer
In addition to the basic watchdog timer included in the 80515 MPU, an independent,
robust, fixed-duration, watchdog timer (WDT) is included in the device. It uses the crystal
oscillator as its time base and must be refreshed by the MPU firmware at least every 1.5
seconds. When not refreshed on time the WDT overflows, and the part is reset as if the
RESET pin were pulled high, except that the I/O RAM bits will be in the same state as after
a wake-up from SLEEP or LCD modes (see the I/O RAM description for a list of I/O RAM
bit states after RESET and wake-up). 4100 oscillator cycles (or 125ms) after the WDT
overflow, the MPU will be launched from program address 0x0000.

A status bit, WD_OVF, is set when WDT overflow occurs. This bit is powered by the
nonvolatile supply and can be read by the MPU when WAKE rises to determine if the part
is initializing after a WD overflow event or after a power-up. After it is read, MPU firmware
must clear WD_OVF. The WD_OVF bit is cleared by the RESET pin
There is no internal digital state that deactivates the WDT. For debug purposes, however,
the WDT can be disabled by tying the V1 pin to V3P3 (see Figure 35). Of course, this also
deactivates V1 power fault detection. Since there is no firmware way to disable the crystal
oscillator or the WDT, it is guaranteed that whatever state the part might find itself in, upon
watchdog overflow, the part will be reset to a known state.
Asserting ICE_E will also deactivate the WDT. This is the only method that will work in
BROWNOUT mode.
In normal operation, the WDT is reset by periodically writing a one to the WDT_RST bit. The
watchdog timer is also reset when the internal signal WAKE=0 (see section on Wake Up
Behavior).
Figure 14: Functions defined by V1.
Program Security
When enabled, the security feature limits the ICE to global flash erase operations only. All other ICE operations are blocked.
This guarantees the security of the user’s MPU and CE program code. Security is enabled by MPU code that is executed in a
32 cycle preboot interval before the primary boot sequence begins. Once security is enabled, the only way to disable it is to
perform a global erase of the flash, followed by a chip reset.
The first 32 cycles of the MPU boot code are called the preboot phase because during this phase the ICE is inhibited. A read-
only status bit, PREBOOT, identifies these cycles to the MPU. Upon completion of preboot, the ICE can be enabled and is
permitted to take control of the MPU.
SECURE, the security enable bit, is reset whenever the chip is reset. Hardware associated with the bit permits only ones to be
written to it. Thus, preboot code may set SECURE to enable the security feature but may not reset it. Once SECURE is set, the
preboot code is protected and no external read of program code is possible
Specifically, when SECURE is set:
The ICE is limited to bulk flash erase only.
Page zero of flash memory, the preferred location for the user’s preboot code, may not be page-erased by either
MPU or ICE. Page zero may only be erased with global flash erase.
Writes to page zero, whether by MPU or ICE are inhibited.
The SECURE bit is to be used with caution! Inadvertently setting this bit will inhibit access to the part via the ICE
interface, if no mechanism for actively resetting the part between reset and erase operations is provided (see ICE
Interface description).

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Theory of Operation
The energy delivered by a power source into a load can be expressed as:
=
tdttItVE
0
)()(
Assuming phase angles are constant, the following formulae apply:
P = Real Energy [Wh] = V * A * cos φ* t
Q = Reactive Energy [VARh] = V * A * sin φ * t
S = Apparent Energy [VAh] = 22 QP +
For a practical meter, not only voltage and current amplitudes, but also phase angles and harmonic content may change
constantly. Thus, simple RMS measurements are inherently inaccurate. A modern solid-state electricity meter IC such as the
TERIDIAN 71M6521BE functions by emulating the integral operation above, i.e. it processes current and voltage samples
through an ADC at a constant frequency. As long as the ADC resolution is high enough and the sample frequency is beyond
the harmonic range of interest, the current and voltage samples, multiplied with the time period of sampling will yield an
accurate quantity for the momentary energy. Summing up the momentary energy quantities over time will result in accumulated
energy.

Figure 15 shows the shapes of V(t), I(t), the momentary power and the accumulated energy, resulting from 50 samples of the
voltage and current signals over a period of 20ms. The application of 240VAC and 100A results in an accumulation of 480Ws
(= 0.133Wh) over the 20ms period, as indicated by the Accumulated Energy curve.
The described sampling method works reliably, even in the presence of dynamic phase shift and harmonic distortion.

System Timing Summary
Figure 16 summarizes the timing relationships between the input MUX states, the CE_BUSY signal, and the two serial output
streams. In this example, MUX_DIV=4 and FIR_LEN=1 (384). The duration of each MUX frame is 1 + MUX_DIV * 2 if
FIR_LEN=288, and 1 + MUX_DIV * 3 if FIR_LEN=384. An ADC conversion will always consume an integer number of CK32
clocks. Followed by the conversions is a single CK32 cycle where the bandgap voltage is allowed to recover from the change
in CROSS.
Each CE program pass begins when ADC0 (channel IA) conversion begins. Depending on the length of the CE program, it
may continue running until the end of the ADC3 (VB) conversion. CE opcodes are constructed to ensure that all CE code
passes consume exactly the same number of cycles. The result of each ADC conversion is inserted into the CE DRAM when
the conversion is complete. The CE is written to tolerate sudden changes in ADC data. The exact CK count when each ADC
value is loaded into DRAM is shown in Figure 16.
Figure 16 also shows that the serial RTM data stream begins transmitting at the beginning of state ‘S.’ RTM, consisting of 140
CK cycles, will always finish before the next code pass starts.

Battery Modes
Shortly after system power (V3P3SYS) is applied, the part will be in MISSION mode. MISSION mode means that the part is
operating with system power and that the internal PLL is stable. This mode is the normal operation mode where the part is
capable of measuring energy.
When system power is not available (i.e. when V1<VBIAS), the 71M6521DE/FE can be in one of three battery modes, i.e.
BROWNOUT, LCD, or SLEEP mode. As soon as V1 falls below VBIAS or when the part wakes up under battery power (with
sufficient voltage margin), the part will automatically enter BROWNOUT mode (see Wake Up Behavior section). From
BROWNOUT mode, the MPU may enter either LCD mode or SLEEP mode by setting either the LCD_ONLY or SLEEP I/O RAM
bits (only one bit can be set at the same time in BROWNOUT mode, since setting one bit will already force the part into SLEEP
or LCD mode, disabling the MPU).
Figure 18 shows a state diagram of the various operation modes, with the possible transitions between modes. For information
on the timing of mode transitions refer to Figure 22 through Figure 24.
When V1 falls below VBIAS or the part wakes up under battery power, the part will automatically enter BROWNOUT mode
(see Wake Up Behavior section). From BROWNOUT mode, the part may choose to enter either LCD mode or SLEEP mode,
as controlled by the MPU via the I/O RAM bits LCD_ONLY and SLEEP.
Meters that do not require functionality in the battery modes still need to contain code that brings the chip from
BROWNOUT mode to SLEEP mode. Otherwise, the chip remains in BROWNOUT mode, once the system power is
missing, and consumes more current than intended.
Similarly, meters equipped with batteries need to contain code that transitions the chip to SLEEP mode as soon as the
battery is attached in production. Otherwise, remaining in BROWNOUT mode would add unnecessary drain to the
battery.
The transition from MISSION mode to BROWNOUT mode is signaled by the IE_PLLFALL interrupt flag (in SFR 0xE8[7]). The
transition in the other direction is signaled by the IE_PLLRISE interrupt flag (SFR 0xE8[6]), when the PLL becomes stable.
Transitions from both LCD and SLEEP mode are initiated by wake-up timer timeout conditions or pushbutton events. When the
PB pin is pulled high (pushbutton is pressed), the IE_PB interrupt flag (SFR 0xE8[4]) is set, and when the wake-up timer times
out, the IE_WAKE interrupt flag (SFR 0xE8[5]) is set.
In the absence of system power, if the voltage margin for the LDO regulator providing 2.5V to the internal circuitry becomes too
low to be safe, the part automatically enters sleep mode (BAT_OK false). The battery voltage must stay above 3V to ensure
that BAT_OK remains true. Under this condition, the 71M6521BE stays in SLEEP mode, even if the voltage margin for the
LDO improves (BAT_OK true).
Table 59 shows the circuit functions available in each operating mode.

BROWNOUT Mode
In BROWNOUT mode, most non-metering digital functions, as shown in Table 59, are active, including ICE, UART, EEPROM,
and LCD. In BROWNOUT mode, a low bias current regulator will provide 2.5 Volts to V2P5 and the nonvolatile V2P5 net. The
regulator has an output called BAT_OK to indicate that it has sufficient overhead. When BAT_OK = 0, the part will enter
SLEEP mode.
The V3P3D output pin is active in BROWNOUT mode, and low-current external components, such as EEPROMs can be
supplied with the current from this pin while the chip is in BROWNOUT mode.
From BROWNOUT mode, the processor can voluntarily enter LCD or SLEEP modes. When system power is restored, the part
will automatically transition from any of the battery modes to mission mode, once the PLL has settled.
The MPU will run at crystal clock rate in BROWNOUT mode. The value of MPU_DIV will be remembered (not changed) as the
part enters and exits BROWNOUT.
While PLL_OK = 0, the I/O RAM bits ADC_E and CE_E are held in zero state disabling both ADC and CE. When PLL_OK falls,
the CE program counter is cleared immediately and all FIR processing halts. Figure 19 shows the functional blocks active in
BROWNOUT mode.

LCD Mode
In LCD mode, the data contained in the LCD_SEG registers is displayed, i.e. up to four LCD segments connected to each of the
pins SEG18 and SEG19 can be made to blink without the involvement of the MPU, which is disabled in LCD mode. The
V3P3D output pin is inactive in LCD mode.
This mode can be exited only by system power up, a timeout of the wake-up timer, or a push button. Figure 20 shows the
functional blocks active in LCD mode.
SLEEP Mode
In SLEEP mode, the battery current is minimized and only the Oscillator is active. The V3P3D output pin is inactive in LCD
mode. This mode can be exited only by system power-up, a timeout of the wake-up timer, or a push button event. Figure 21
shows the functional blocks active in SLEEP mode.

Fault and Reset Behavior
Reset Mode: When the RESET pin is pulled high all digital activity stops. The oscillator module continues to run. Additionally,
all I/O RAM bits are set to their default states. As long as V1, the input voltage at the power fault block, is greater than VBIAS,
the internal 2.5V regulator will continue to provide power to the digital section.
Once initiated, the reset mode will persist until the reset timer times out, signified by WAKE rising. This will occur in 4100
cycles of the real time clock after RESET goes low, at which time the MPU will begin executing its preboot and boot sequences
from address 00. See the security section for more description of preboot and boot.
If system power is not present, the reset timer duration will be 2 cycles of the crystal clock, at which time the MPU will begin
executing in BROWNOUT mode, starting at address 00.
Power Fault Circuit: The 71M6521BE includes a comparator to monitor system power fault conditions. When the output of
the comparator falls (V1<VBIAS), the I/P RAM bits PLL_OK is zeroed and the part switches to BROWNOUT mode if a battery
is present. Once, system power returns, the MPU remains in reset and does not start Mission Mode until 4100 oscillator clocks
later, when PLL_OK rises. If a battery is not present, indicated by BAT_OK=0, WAKE will fall and the part will enter SLEEP
mode.
There are several conditions the part could be in as system power returns. If the part is in BROWNOUT mode, it will auto-
matically switch to mission mode when PLL_OK rises. It will receive an interrupt indicating this. No configuration bits will be
reset or reconfigured during this transition.
If the part is in LCD or SLEEP mode when system power returns, it will also switch to mission mode when PLL_OK rises. In
this case, all configuration bits will be in the reset state due to WAKE having been zero. The MPU RAM must be re-initialized.
The hardware watchdog timer will become active when the part enters MISSION mode.

If there is no battery when system power returns, the part will switch to mission mode when PLL_OK rises. All configuration
bits will be in reset state, and MPU RAM data will be unknown and must be initialized by the MPU.
Wake Up Behavior
As described above, the part will always wake up in mission mode when system power is restored. Additionally, the part will
wake up in BROWNOUT mode when PB rises (push button pressed) or when a timeout of the wake-up timer occurs.
Wake on PB
If the part is in SLEEP or LCD mode, it can be awakened by a rising edge on the PB pin. This pin is normally pulled to GND
and can be pulled high by a push button depression. Before the PB signal rises, the MPU is in reset due to WAKE being low.
When PB rises, WAKE rises and within three crystal cycles, the MPU begins to execute. The MPU can determine whether the
PB signal woke it up by checking the IE_PB flag.
For debouncing, the PB pin is monitored by a state machine operating from a 32Hz clock. This circuit will reject between 31ms
and 62ms of noise. Detection hardware will ignore all transitions after the initial rising edge. This will continue until the MPU
clears the IE_PB bit.

Wake on Timer
If the part is in SLEEP or LCD mode, it can be awakened by the wake-up timer. Until this timer times out, the MPU is in reset
due to WAKE being low. When the wake-up timer times out, the WAKE signal rises and within three crystal cycles, the MPU
begins to execute. The MPU can determine whether the timer woke it by checking the AUTOWAKE interrupt flag (IE_WAKE).
The wake-up timer begins timing when the part enters LCD or SLEEP mode. Its duration is controlled by WAKE_PRD[2:0] and
WAKE_RES. WAKE_RES selects a timer LSB of either 1 minute (WAKE_RES=1) or 2.5 seconds (WAKE_RES=0).
WAKE_PRD[2:0] selects a duration of from 1 to 7 LSBs.
The timer is armed by WAKE_ARM=1. It must be armed at least three crystal clock cycles before SLEEP or LCD_ONLY is
initiated. Setting WAKE_ARM presets the timer with the values in WAKE_RES and WAKE_PRD and readies the timer to start
when the processor writes to SLEEP or LCD_ONLY. The timer is reset and disarmed whenever the processor is awake. Thus, if
it is desired to wake the MPU periodically (every 5 seconds, for example) the timer must be rearmed every time the MPU is
awakened.

Data Flow
The data flow between CE and MPU is shown in Figure 26. In a typical application, the 32-bit compute engine (CE) sequen-
tially processes the samples from the voltage inputs on pins IA, VA, IB, and VB, performing calculations to measure active
power (Wh). These measurements are then accessed by the MPU, processed further and output using the peripheral devices
available to the MPU.

CE/MPU Communication
Figure 27 shows the functional relationship between CE and MPU. The CE is controlled by the MPU via shared registers in the
I/O RAM and by registers in the CE DRAM. The CE outputs two interrupt signals to the MPU: CE_BUSY and XFER_BUSY,
which are connected to the MPU interrupt service inputs as external interrupts. CE_BUSY indicates that the CE is actively
processing data. This signal will occur once every multiplexer cycle. XFER_BUSY indicates that the CE is updating data to the
output region of the CE DRAM. This will occur whenever the CE has finished generating a sum by completing an accumulation
interval determined by SUM_CYCLES * PRE_SAMPS samples. Interrupts to the MPU occur on the falling edges of the
XFER_BUSY and CE_BUSY signals.

Temperature Measurement
Measurement of absolute temperature uses the on-chip temperature sensor while applying the following formula:
n
n
nT
SNTN
T+
=))((
In the above formula T is the temperature in °C, N(T) is the ADC count at temperature T, Nn is the ADC count at 25°C, Sn is
the sensitivity in LSB/°C as stated in the Electrical Specifications, and Tn is +25°C.
Example: At 25°C a temperature sensor value of 518,203,584 (Nn) is read by the ADC. At an unknown temperature T the
value 449.648.000 is read at (N(T)). The absolute temperature is then determined by dividing both Nn and N(T) by 512 to
account for the 9-bit shift of the ADC value and then inserting the results into the above formula, using –2220 for LSB/°C:
CCT °=+
=3.8525
)2220( 512 4518,203,58-0449.648.00
It is recommended to base temperature measurements on TEMP_RAW_X which is the sum of two consecutive temperature
readings thus being higher by a factor of two than the raw sensor readings.
Temperature Compensation
Temperature Coefficients: The internal voltage reference is calibrated during device manufacture.
The temperature coefficients TC1 and TC2 are given as constants that represent typical component behavior (in µV/°C and
µV/°C2, respectively).
Since TC1 and TC2 are given in µV/°C and µV/°C2, respectively, the value of the VREF voltage (1.195V) has to be
taken into account when transitioning to PPM/°C and PPM/°C2. This means that PPMC = 26.84*TC1/1.195, and
PPMC2 = 1374*TC2/1.195).
Temperature Compensation: The CE provides the bandgap temperature to the MPU, which then may digitally compensate
the power outputs for the temperature dependence of VREF, using the CE register GAIN_ADJ. Since the band gap amplifier is
chopper-stabilized via the CHOP_EN bits, the most significant long-term drift mechanism in the voltage reference is removed.
The MPU, not the CE, is entirely in charge of providing temperature compensation. The MPU applies the following formula to
determine GAIN_ADJ (address 0x12). In this formula TEMP_X is the deviation from nominal or calibration temperature
expressed in multiples of 0.1°C:

In a production electricity meter, the 71M6521BE is not the only component contributing to temperature dependency. A whole
range of components (e.g. current transformers, resistor dividers, power sources, filter capacitors) will contribute temperature
effects.
Since the output of the on-chip temperature sensor is accessible to the MPU, temperature-compensation mechanisms
with great flexibility are possible. MPU access to GAIN_ADJ permits a system-wide temperature correction over the
entire meter rather than local to the chip.

Figure 30: Connecting LCDs
Nineteen pins are dedicated LCD segment pins (SEG0 to SEG18). If more pins are needed to drive segments, the dual-
function pins CKTEST/SEG19, E_RXTX/SEG38, E_TCLK/SEG33, and E_RST/SEG32 can be used.
Even more segment pins are available in the form of combined DIO and segment pins (SEG24/DIO4 to SEG31/DIO11,
SEG34/DIO14 to SEG37/DIO17).
The split between DIO and LCD use of the combined pins is controlled with the DIO register LCD_NUM. LCD_NUM can be
assigned any number between 0 and 18. The first dual-purpose pin to be allocated as LCD is SEG37/DIO17. Thus if
LCD_NUM=5, SEG37 will be configured as LCD. The remaining SEG36 to SEG24 will be configured as DIO16 to DIO4. DIO1
and DIO2 are always available, if not used for the optical port.
Pins CKTEST/SEG19, E_RXTX/SEG38, E_TCLK/SEG33, and E_RST/SEG32 are not affected by LCD_NUM.

Pull-up resistors of roughly 10kΩ to V3P3D (to ensure operation in BROWNOUT mode) should be used for both SCL and SDA

DIO5 connects to both the DI and DO pins of the three-wire device. The CS pin must be connected to a vacant DIO pin of the
71M6521BE. A pull-up resistor of roughly 10kΩ to V3P3D (to ensure operation in BROWNOUT mode) should be used for the
DI/DO signals, and the CS pin should be pulled down with a resistor to prevent that the three-wire device is selected on power-
up, before the 71M6521BE can establish a stable signal for CS. The DIO_EEX register in I/O RAM must be set to 10 in order to
convert the DIO pins DIO4 and DIO5 to uWire pins. The pull-up resistor for DIO5 may not be necessary.

Optical Interface
The pins OPT_TX and OPT_RX can be used for a regular serial interface, e.g. by connecting a RS-232 transceiver, or they
can be used to directly operate optical components, e.g. an infrared diode and phototransistor implementing a FLAG interface.
Figure 34 shows the basic connections. The OPT_TX pin becomes active when the I/O RAM register OPT_TXDIS is set to 0.
The polarity of the OPT_TX and OPT_RX pins can be inverted with configuration bits OPT_TXINV and OPT_RXINV, re-
spectively.
The OPT_TX output may be modulated at 38kHz when system power is present. Modulation is not available in BROWNOUT
mode. The OPT_TXMOD bit enables modulation. The duty cycle is controlled by OPT_FDC[1:0], which can select 50%, 25%,
12.5%, and 6.25% duty cycle. A 6.25% duty cycle means OPT_TX is low for 6.25% of the period.
The receive pin (OPT_RX) may need an analog filter when receiving modulated optical signals.
With modulation, an optical emitter can be operated at higher current than nominal, enabling it to increase the distance
along the optical path.
If operation in BROWNOUT mode is desired, the external components should be connected to V3P3D.

Connecting V1 and Reset Pins
A voltage divider should be used to establish that V1 is in a safe range when the meter is in mission mode (V1 must be lower
than 2.9V in all cases in order to keep the hardware watchdog timer enabled). For proper debugging or loading code into the
71M6521BE mounted on a PCB, it is necessary to have a provision like the header shown above R1 in Figure 35. A shorting
jumper on this header pulls V1 up to V3P3 disabling the hardware watchdog timer.
The parallel impedance of R1 and R2 should be approximately 20 to 30kΩ in order to provide hysteresis for the power fault
monitor.

Even though a functional meter will not necessarily need a reset switch, it is useful to have a reset pushbutton for prototyping,
as shown in Figure 36, left side. The RESET signal may be sourced from V3P3SYS (functional in MISSION mode only),
V3P3D (MISSION and BROWNOUT modes), VBAT (all modes, if battery is present), or from a combination of these sources,
depending on the application. When the 71M6521BE is used in an EMI environment, the RESET pin should be protected by
the external components shown in Figure 36, right side. R1 should be in the range of 100Ω and mounted as closely as possible
to the IC.
Since the 71M6521BE generates its own power-on reset, a reset button or circuitry, as shown in Figure 36, left side, is
only required for test units and prototypes.

Connecting the Emulator Port Pins
Capacitors to ground must be used for protection from EMI. Production boards should have the ICE_E pin connected to
ground.
If the ICE pins are used to drive LCD segments, the pull-up resistors should be omitted, as shown in Figure 37, and 22pF
capacitors to GNDD should be used for protection from EMI.
It is important to bring out the ICE_E pin to the programming interface in order to create a way for reprogramming
parts that have the flash SECURE bit (SFR 0xB2[6]) set. Providing access to ICE_E ensures that the part can be reset
between erase and program cycles, which will enable programming devices to reprogram the part. The reset required is im-
plemented with a watchdog timer reset (i.e. the hardware WDT must be enabled).

Crystal Oscillator
The oscillator of the 71M6521BE drives a standard 32.768kHz watch crystal. The oscillator has been designed specifically to
handle these crystals and is compatible with their high impedance and limited power handling capability. The oscillator power
dissipation is very low to maximize the lifetime of any battery backup device attached to VBAT.
Board layouts with minimum capacitance from XIN to XOUT will require less battery current. Good layouts will have XIN and
XOUT shielded from each other.
Since the oscillator is self-biasing, an external resistor must not be connected across the crystal.
With a typical 32kHz crystal, the 71M6521BE needs 600 to 650 milliseconds to stabilize the oscillator clock after power-up.
This time is added to the 125ms (4096 CK32 cycles) for the PLL_OK signal to become true which is required for the part to
enter MISSION mode.
Flash Programming
Operational or test code can be programmed into the flash memory using either an in-circuit emulator or the Flash
Programmer Module (TFP-1) available from TERIDIAN. The flash programming procedure uses the E_RST, E_RXTX, and
E_TCLK pins.
MPU Firmware Library
All application-specific MPU functions mentioned above under “Application Information” are available from TERIDIAN as a
standard ANSI C library and as ANSI “C” source code. The code is available as part of the Demonstration Kit for the
71M6521BE IC. The Demonstration Kits come with the 71M6521BE IC preprogrammed with demo firmware mounted on a
functional sample meter PCB (Demo Board). The Demo Boards allow for quick and efficient evaluation of the IC without having
to write firmware or having to supply an in-circuit emulator (ICE).
Meter Calibration
Once the TERIDIAN 71M6521BE energy meter device has been installed in a meter system, it has to be calibrated for
tolerances of the current sensors, voltage dividers and signal conditioning components. The device can be calibrated using the
gain and phase adjustment factors accessible to the CE. The gain adjustment is used to compensate for tolerances of
components used for signal conditioning, especially the resistive components. Phase adjustment is provided to compensate for
phase shifts introduced by the current sensors.
Due to the flexibility of the MPU firmware, any calibration method, such as calibration based on energy, or current and voltage
can be implemented. It is also possible to implement segment-wise calibration (depending on current range).
The 71M6521BE supports common industry standard calibration techniques, such as single-point (energy-only), multi-point
(energy, Vrms, Irms), and auto-calibration.

I/O RAM DESCRIPTION – Alphabetical Order
Bits with a W (write) direction are written by the MPU into configuration RAM. Typically, they are initially stored in flash memory
and copied to the configuration RAM by the MPU. Some of the more frequently programmed bits are mapped to the MPU SFR
memory space. The remaining bits are mapped to 2xxx. Bits with R (read) direction can be read by the MPU. Columns labeled
Rst and Wk describe the bit values upon reset and wake, respectively. No entry in one of these columns means the bit is
either read-only or is powered by the nonvolatile supply and is not initialized. Write only bits will return zero when they are read.
Name Location Rst Wk Dir Description
ADC_E 2005[3] 0 0 R/W Enables ADC and VREF. When disabled, removes bias current
BME 2020[6] 0 - R/W Battery Measure Enable. When set, a load current is immediately
applied to the battery and it is connected to the ADC to be measured

FLSH_ERASE is used to initiate either the Flash Mass Erase cycle or
the Flash Page Erase cycle. Specific patterns are expected for
FLSH_ERASE in order to initiate the appropriate Erase cycle.
(default = 0x00).
0x55 – Initiate Flash Page Erase cycle. Must be proceeded by a
write to FLSH_PGADR @ SFR 0xB7.
0xAA – Initiate Flash Mass Erase cycle. Must be proceeded by a
write to FLSH_MEEN @ SFR 0xB2 and the debug (CC)
port must be enabled.
Any other pattern written to FLSH_ERASE will have no effect.
FLSH_MEEN SFRB2[1] 0 0 W Mass Erase Enable
0 – Mass Erase disabled (default).
1 – Mass Erase enabled.
Must be re-written for each new Mass Erase cycle.
FLSH_PGADR[6:0] SFRB7[7:1] 0 0 W Flash Page Erase Address
FLSH_PGADR[6:0] – Flash Page Address (page 0 thru 127) that will
be erased during the Page Erase cycle. (default = 0x00).
Must be re-written for each new Page Erase cycle.
FLSH_PWE SFRB2[0] 0 0 R/W Program Write Enable
0 – MOVX commands refer to XRAM Space, normal operation
(default).

IE_PB SFRE8[4] 0 -- R/W PB flag. Indicates that a rising edge occurred on PB. Firmware must
write a zero to this bit to clear it. The bit is also cleared when MPU
requests SLEEP or LCD mode. On bootup, the MPU can read this
bit to determine if the part was woken with the PB DIO0[0].
IE_PLLRISE
SFRE8[6] 0 0 R/W Indicates that the MPU was woken or interrupted (int 4) by System
power becoming available, or more precisely, by PLL_OK rising.
Firmware must write a zero to this bit to clear it
IE_PLLFALL SFRE8[7] 0 0 R/W Indicates that the MPU has entered BROWNOUT mode because
System power has become unavailable (int 4), or more precisely,
because PLL_OK fell.
Note: this bit will not be set if the part wakes into
BROWNOUT mode because of PB or the WAKE timer.
Firmware must write a zero to this bit to clear it.

section applies to CE code revision CE6521BE_A04.
Formats
All CE words are 4 bytes. Unless specified otherwise, they are in 32-bit two’s complement (-1 = 0xFFFFFFFF). ‘Calibration’
parameters are defined in flash memory (or external EEPROM) and must be copied to CE data memory by the MPU before
enabling the CE. ‘Internal’ variables are used in internal CE calculations. ‘Input’ variables allow the MPU to control the behavior
of the CE code. ‘Output’ variables are outputs of the CE calculations.
Constants
Constants used in the CE Data Memory tables are:
FS = 32768Hz/13 = 2520.62Hz.
F0 is the fundamental frequency.
IMAX is the external rms current corresponding to 250mV pk at the inputs IA and IB.
VMAX is the external rms voltage corresponding to 250mV pk at the VA and VB inputs.
NACC, the accumulation count for energy measurements is PRE_SAMPS*SUM_CYCLES.
Accumulation count time for energy measurements is PRE_SAMPS*SUM_CYCLES/FS.
The system constants IMAX and VMAX are used to convert internal quantities (as used by the CE) to external, i.e. metering
quantities. Their values are determined by the off-chip scaling of the voltage and current sensors used in an actual meter. The
LSB values used in this document relate digital quantities at the CE interface to external meter input quantities. For example, if
a SAG threshold of 80V peak is desired at the meter input, the digital value that should be programmed into SAG_THR would
be 80V/SAG_THRLSB, where SAG_THRLSB is the LSB value in the description of SAG_THR.
The parameters EQU, CE_E, PRE_SAMPS, and SUM_CY CLES essential to the function of the CE are stored in I/O RAM (see I/O
RAM section).
Environment
Before starting the CE using the CE_E bit, the MPU has to establish the proper environment for the CE by implementing the
following steps:
Load the CE data into CE DRAM.
Establish the equation to be applied in EQU.
Establish the accumulation period and number of samples in PRE_SAMPS and SUM_CYCLES.
Establish the number of cycles per ADC mux frame.
Set PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] to 81.
Set FIR_LEN to 1 and MUX_DIV to 1.
There must be thirteen 32768Hz cycles per ADC mux frame (see System Timing Diagram, Figure 16). This means that the
product of the number of cycles per frame and the number of conversions per frame must be 12 (allowing for one settling
cycle). The required configuration is FIR_LEN = 1 (three cycles per conversion) and MUX_DIV = 1 (4 conversions per mux
frame).
During operation, the MPU is in charge of controlling the multiplexer cycles, for example by inserting an alternate multiplexer
sequence at regular intervals using MUX_ALT. This enables temperature measurement. The polarity of chopping circuitry must
be altered for each sample. It must also alternate for each alternate multiplexer reading. This is accomplished by maintaining
CHOP_E = 00.

CE Calculations
The CE performs the precision computations necessary to accurately measure energy. These computations include offset
cancellation, products, product smoothing, product summation, frequency detection, and sag detection. All data computed by
the CE is dependent on the selected meter equation as given by EQU (in I/O RAM). However, for the 6521BE CE code, EQU is
always 0.

CESTATUS
Since the CE_BUSY interrupt occurs at 2520.6Hz, it is desirable to minimize the computation required in the interrupt handler
of the MPU. The MPU can read the CE status word at every CE_BUSY interrupt.
CE
Address Name Description
0x11E8 CESTATUS See description of CE status word below
The CE Status Word is used for generating early warnings to the MPU. It contains sag warnings for VA as well as the F0 bit, a
clock derived from the fundamental input frequency. CESTATUS provides information about the status of voltage and input AC
signal frequency, which are useful for generating early power fail warnings, e.g. to initiate necessary data storage. CESTATUS
represents the status flags for the preceding CE code pass (CE busy interrupt). Sag alarms are not remembered from one
code pass to the next. The CE Status word is refreshed at every CE_BUSY interrupt.
The significance of the bits in CESTATUS is shown in the table below:

The CE is initialized by the MPU using CECONFIG (CESTATE). This register contains in packed form the control bits for
SAG_CNT, FREQSEL, NEUTRAL_TAMPER, IB_SHUNT, IA_SHUNT, PULSE_SLOW, and PULSE_FAST.
CE
Address Name Default Description
0x1040 CECONFIG 0x5000 See description of CECONFIG below
The significance of the bits in CECONFIG is shown in the table below:
IA_SHUNT and/or IB_SHUNT can configure their respective current inputs to accept shunt resistor sensors. In this case the CE
provides an additional gain of 8 to the selected current input. WRATE may need to be adjusted based on the values of
IA_SHUNT and IB_SHUNT. Whenever IA_SHUNT or IB_SHUNT are set to 1, In_8 (in the equation for Kh) is assigned a value of
8.
The CE pulse generator is controlled only by the CE (internal) variables.
Note: The 6521BE Demo Code creep function halts both internal and external pulse generation.

[0] PULSE_SLOW 0
When PULSE_SLOW = 1, the pulse generator input is reduced by a factor of
64. When PULSE_FAST = 1, the pulse generator input is increased 16x.
These two parameters control the pulse gain factor X (see table below).
Allowed values are either 1 or 0. Default is 0 (X = 6).

CE TRANSFER VARIABLES
When the MPU receives the XFER_BUSY interrupt, it knows that fresh data is available in the transfer variables.
Fundamental Energy Measurement Variables
The table below describes each transfer variable for fundamental energy measurement. All variables are signed 32 bit
integers. Accumulated variables such as WSUM are internally scaled so they have at least 2x margin before overflow when the
integration time is 1 second. Additionally, the hardware will not permit output values to ‘fold back’ upon overflow.

Pulse Generation
CE
Address Name Default Description
0x1044 WRATE 389
Kh = VMAX*IMAX*47.1132 / (In_8*WRATE*NACC*X) Wh/pulse. The default
value results in a Kh of 1.0Wh/pulse when 2520 samples are taken in each
accumulation interval (and VMAX=600, IMAX = 208, In_8 = 1, X = 6).
The maximum value for WRATE is 215 – 1.
WRATE controls the number of pulses that are generated per measured Wh quantities. The lower WRATE is the slower the
pulse rate for measured energy quantity. The metering constant Kh is derived from WRATE as the amount of energy measured
for each pulse. That is, if Kh = 1Wh/pulse, a power applied to the meter of 120V and 30A results in one pulse per second. If
the load is 240V at 150A, ten pulses per second will be generated. X is controlled by the PULSE_FAST and PULSE_SLOW bits
in the CECONFIG register.
The maximum pulse rate is 7.5kHz. The maximum time jitter is 67µs and is independent of the number of pulses measured.
Thus, if the pulse generator is monitored for 1 second, the peak jitter is 67ppm. After 10 seconds, the peak jitter is 6.7ppm.
The average jitter is always zero. If it is attempted to drive either pulse generator faster than its maximum rate, it will simply
output at its maximum rate without exhibiting any rollover characteristics. The actual pulse rate, using WSUM as an example,
is:

CE Calibration Parameters
The table below lists the parameters that are typically entered to effect calibration of meter accuracy.

0x1020 CAL_IA 16384
0x1024 CAL_VA 16384
0x1028 CAL_IB 16384
0x102C CAL_VB 16384
These constants control the gain of their respective channels. The nominal
value for each parameter is 214 = 16384. The gain of each channel is directly
proportional to its CAL parameter. Thus, if the gain of a channel is 1% slow,
CAL should be scaled by 1/(1 – 0.01).
0x1030 PHADJ_A 0
0x1034 PHADJ_B 0
These two constants control the CT phase compensation. No compensation
occurs when PHADJ_X = 0. As PHADJ_X is increased, more compensation
(lag) is introduced. Range: ±215 – 1. If it is desired to delay the current by the

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Power/Ground Pins:
Name Type Circuit Description
GNDA P -- Analog ground: This pin should be connected directly to the ground plane.
GNDD P -- Digital ground: This pin should be connected directly to the ground plane.
V3P3A P -- Analog power supply: A 3.3V power supply should be connected to this pin, must be the
same voltage as V3P3SYS.
V3P3SYS P -- System 3.3V supply. This pin should be connected to a 3.3V power supply.
V3P3D O 13
Auxiliary voltage output of the chip, controlled by the internal 3.3V selection switch. In
mission mode, this pin is internally connected to V3P3SYS. In BROWNOUT mode, it is
internally connected to VBAT. This pin is floating in LCD and sleep mode.
VBAT P 12
Battery backup power supply. A battery or super-capacitor is to be connected between
VBAT and GNDD. If no battery is used, connect VBAT to V3P3SYS.
V2P5 O 10
Output of the internal 2.5V regulator. A 0.1µF capacitor to GNDA should be connected to
this pin.
Analog Pins:
Name Type Circuit Description
IA, IB I 6
Line Current Sense Inputs: These pins are voltage inputs to the internal A/D converter.
Typically, they are connected to the outputs of current sensors. Unused pins must be
connected to V3P3A.
VA, VB I 6
Line Voltage Sense Inputs: These pins are voltage inputs to the internal A/D converter.
Typically, they are connected to the outputs of resistor dividers. Unused pins must be
connected to V3P3A or tied to the voltage sense input that is in use.
V1 I 7
Comparator Input: This pin is a voltage input to the internal comparator. The voltage ap-
plied to the pin is compared to an internal BIAS voltage (1.6V). If the input voltage is
above the reference, the comparator output will be high (1). If the comparator output is
low, a voltage fault will occur. A 0.1µF capacitor to GNDA should be connected to this pin.
VREF O 9
Voltage Reference for the ADC. This pin is normally disabled by setting the VREF_CAL bit
in the I/O RAM and can be left unconnected. If enabled, a 0.1µF capacitor to GNDA
should be connected.
XIN
XOUT I 8
Crystal Inputs: A 32kHz crystal should be connected across these pins. Typically, a 27pF
capacitor is also connected from each pin to GNDA. It is important to minimize the
capacitance between these pins. See the crystal manufacturer datasheet for details.
Pin types: P = Power, O = Output, I = Input, I/O = Input/Output
The circuit number denotes the equivalent circuit, as specified under “I/O Equivalent Circuits”.

Multi-use pins, configurable as either LCD SEG driver or DIO. (DIO4 = SCK, DIO5 =
SDA when configured as EEPROM interface, WPULSE = DIO6 when configured as
pulse outputs). If unused, these pins must be configured as outputs.
SEG34/DIO14…
SEG37/DIO17 I/O 3, 4, 5 Multi-use pins, configurable as either LCD SEG driver or DIO. If unused, these
pins must be configured as outputs.
E_RXTX/SEG38 I/O 1, 4, 5
E_RST/SEG32 I/O 1, 4, 5
E_TCLK/SEG33 O 4, 5
Multi-use pins, configurable as either emulator port pins (when ICE_E pulled high) or
LCD SEG drivers (when ICE_E tied to GND).
ICE_E I 2
ICE enable. When zero, E_RST, E_TCLK, and E_RXTX become SEG32, SEG33,
and SEG38 respectively. For production units, this pin should be pulled to GND to
disable the emulator port. This pin should be brought out to the programming inter-
face in order to create a way for reprogramming parts that have the SECURE bit set.
CKTEST/SEG19 O 4, 5
Multi-use pin, configurable as either Clock PLL output or LCD segment driver. Can
be enabled and disabled by CKOUT_EN.
TMUXOUT O 4
Digital output test multiplexer. Controlled by TMUX[4:0].
OPT_RX/DIO1 I/O 3, 4, 7
Multi-use pin, configurable as either Optical Receive Input or general DIO. When
configured as OPT_RX, this pin receives a signal from an external photo-detector
used in an IR serial interface. If unused, this pin must be configured as an
output or terminated to V3P3D or GNDD.
OPT_TX/DIO2 I/O 3, 4
Multi-use pin, configurable as either Optical LED Transmit Output, WPULSE,
RPULSE, or general DIO. When configured as OPT_TX, this pin is capable of
directly driving an LED for transmitting data in an IR serial interface. If unused, this
pin must be configured as an output or terminated to V3P3D or GNDD.
RESET I 3
This input pin resets the chip into a known state. For normal operation, this pin is
connected to GNDD. To reset the chip, this pin should be pulled high. No external
reset circuitry is necessary.
RX I 3
UART input. If unused, this pin must be terminated to V3P3D or GNDD.
TX O 4 UART output.
TEST I 7
Enables Production Test. Must be grounded in normal operation.
PB I 3
Push button input. A rising edge sets the IE_PB flag and causes the part to wake up
if it is in SLEEP or LCD mode. PB does not have an internal pull-up or pull-down. If
unused, this pin must be terminated to GNDD.
X4MHZ I 3
This pin must be connected to GNDD.
Pin types: P = Power, O = Output, I = Input, I/O = Input/Output
