GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADE75181 integrates the Analog Devices, Inc., energy
(ADE) metering IC analog front end and fixed function DSP
solution with an enhanced 8052 MCU core, an RTC, an LCD
driver, and all the peripherals to make an electronic energy
meter with an LCD display in a single part.
The ADE measurement core includes active, reactive, and apparent
energy calculations, as well as voltage and current rms measure-
ments. This information is ready to use for energy billing by using
built-in energy scalars. Many power line supervisory features,
such as SAG, peak, and zero crossing, are included in the energy
measurement DSP to simplify energy meter design.
The microprocessor functionality includes a single-cycle 8052 core,
a real-time clock with a power supply backup pin, a UART, and an
SPI or I2C® interface. The ready-to-use information from the
ADE core reduces the program memory size requirement, making
it easy to integrate complicated design into 16 kB of flash
memory.
The ADE7518 also includes a 108-segment LCD driver. This
driver generates waveforms capable of driving LCDs up to 3.3 V.

TIMING SPECIFICATIONS
AC inputs during testing were driven at VSWOUT − 0.5 V for Logic 1
and 0.45 V for Logic 0. Timing measurements were made at VIH
minimum for Logic 1 and VIL maximum for Logic 0, as shown in
Figure 2.
For timing purposes, a port pin is no longer floating when a
100 mV change from load voltage occurs. A port pin begins to
float when a 100 mV change from the loaded VOH/VOL level
occurs, as shown in Figure 2.
For Tabl e 4 to Table 9, CLOAD = 80 pF for all outputs, VDD = 2.7 V to
3.6 V, and all specifications TMIN to TMAX, unless otherwise noted.

through a resistor when pulled low on power-up or reset. On reset, this pin momentarily becomes an input
and the status of the pin is sampled. If there is no pull-down resistor in place, the pin momentarily goes high
and then user code is executed. If the pin is pulled down on reset, the embedded serial download/debug
kernel executes, and this pin remains low during the internal program execution. After reset, this pin can be
used as a digital output port pin (P2.3).
45 BCTRL/INT1/P0.0 Digital Input for Battery Control, External Interrupt Input 1, or General-Purpose Digital I/O Port 0.0. This logic
input connects VDD or VBAT to VSWOUT internally when set to logic high or logic low, respectively. When left
open, the connection between VDD and VSWOUT or between VBAT and VSWOUT is selected internally.
46 XTAL2 A crystal can be connected across this pin and XTAL1 (see the XTAL1 pin description) to provide a clock
source for the ADE7518. The XTAL2 pin can drive one CMOS load when an external clock is supplied at XTAL1
or by the gate oscillator circuit. An internal 6 pF capacitor is connected to this pin.
47 XTAL1 An external clock can be provided at this logic input. Alternatively, a parallel resonant AT crystal can be
connected across XTAL1 and XTAL2 to provide a clock source for the ADE7518. The clock frequency for
specified operation is 32.768 kHz. An internal 6 pF capacitor is connected to this pin.

TERMINOLOGY
Measurement Error
The error associated with the energy measurement made by the
ADE7518 is defined by the following formula:
Percentage Error =
%100×
EnergyTrue
EnergyTrueRegisterEnergy
Phase Error Between Channels
The digital integrator and the high-pass filter (HPF) in the current
channel have a nonideal phase response. To offset this phase
response and equalize the phase response between channels,
two phase correction networks are placed in the current channel:
one for the digital integrator and the other for the HPF. The
phase correction networks correct the phase response of the
corresponding component and ensure a phase match between
current channel and voltage channel to within ±0.1° over a
range of 45 Hz to 65 Hz with the digital integrator off. With
the digital integrator on, the phase is corrected to within ±0.
over a range of 45 Hz to 65 Hz.
Power Supply Rejection (PSR)
PSR quantifies the ADE7518 measurement error as a percentage
of reading when the power supplies are varied. For the ac PSR
measurement, a reading at nominal supplies (3.3 V) is taken.
A second reading is obtained with the same input signal levels
when an ac (100 mV rms/120 Hz) signal is introduced onto the
supplies. Any error introduced by this ac signal is expressed as a
percentage of reading (see the Measurement Error definition).
For the dc PSR measurement, a reading at nominal supplies
(3.3 V) is taken. A second reading is obtained with the same
input signal levels when the supplies are varied ±5%. Any error
introduced is again expressed as a percentage of the reading.
ADC Offset Error
ADC offset error is the dc offset associated with the analog
inputs to the ADCs. It means that, with the analog inputs
connected to AGND, the ADCs still see a dc analog input
signal. The magnitude of the offset depends on the gain and
input range selection (see the Typical Performance Characteristics
section). However, when HPF1 is switched on, the offset is
removed from the current channel, and the power calculation
is not affected by this offset. The offsets can be removed by
performing an offset calibration (see the Analog Inputs section).
Gain Error
Gain error is the difference between the measured ADC output
code (minus the offset) and the ideal output code (see the
Current Channel ADC section and the Voltage Channel ADC
section). It is measured for each of the gain settings on the
current channel (1, 2, 4, 8, and 16). The difference is expressed
as a percentage of the ideal code.

POWER SUPPLY ARCHITECTURE
The ADE7518 has two power supply inputs, VDD and VBAT, and
requires only a single 3.3 V power supply at VDD for full operation.
A battery backup, or secondary power supply, with a maximum
of 3.7 V, can be connected to the VBAT input. Internally, the
ADE7518 connects VDD or VBAT to VSWOUT, which is used to derive
power for the ADE7518 circuitry. The VSWOUT output pin reflects
the voltage at the internal power supply (VSWOUT) and has a
maximum output current of 6 mA. This pin can also be used
to power a limited number of peripheral components. The 2.5 V
analog supply (VINTA) and the 2.5 V supply for the core logic
(VINTD) are derived by on-chip linear regulators from VSWOUT.
Figure 27 shows the power supply architecture of ADE7518.
The ADE7518 provides automatic battery switchover between
VDD and VBAT based on the voltage level detected at VDD or VDCIN.
Additionally, the BCTRL input can be used to trigger a battery
switchover. The conditions for switching VSWOUT from VDD to
VBAT and back to VDD are described in the Battery Switchover
section. VDCIN is an input pin that can be connected to a 0 V to
3.3 V dc signal. This input is intended for power supply super-
visory purposes and does not provide power to the ADE7518
circuitry (see the Battery Switchover section).

BATTERY SWITCHOVER
The ADE7518 monitors VDD, VBAT, and VDCIN. Automatic battery
switchover from VDD to VBAT can be configured based on the
status of the VDD, VDCIN, or BCTRL pin. Battery switchover is
enabled by default. Setting Bit 1 in the Battery Switchover Configu-
ration SFR (BATPR, 0xF5) disables battery switchover so that
VDD is always connected to VSWOUT (see Table 17). The source of
VSWOUT is indicated by Bit 6 in the Peripheral Configuration SFR
(PERIPH, 0xF4), which is described in Table 18. Bit 6 is set
when VSWOUT is connected to VDD and cleared when VSWOUT is
connected to VBAT.
The battery switchover functionality provided by the ADE7518
allows a seamless transition from VDD to VBAT. An automatic
battery switchover option ensures a stable power supply to the
ADE7518, as long as the external battery voltage is above 2.75 V.
It allows continuous code execution even while the internal
power supply is switching from VDD to VBAT and back. Note that
the energy metering ADCs are not available when VBAT is being
used for VSWOUT.
Power supply management (PSM) interrupts can be enabled to
indicate when battery switchover occurs and when the VDD
power supply is restored (see the Power Supply Management
(PSM) Interrupt section).
VDD to VBAT
The following three events switch the internal power supply
(VSWOUT) from VDD to VBAT:
VDCIN < 1.2 V. When VDCIN falls below 1.2 V, VSWOUT switches
from VDD to VBAT. This event is enabled when the
BATPRG[1:0] bits in the Battery Switchover Configuration
SFR (BATPR, 0xF5) = 0b01. Setting these bits disables
switchover based on VDCIN. Battery switchover on low
VDCIN is disabled by default.
VDD < 2.75 V. When VDD falls below 2.75 V, VSWOUT switches
from VDD to VBAT. This event is enabled when BATPRG[1:0] in
the BATPR SRF are cleared.
Falling edge on BCTRL. When the battery control pin,
BCTRL, goes low, VSWOUT switches from VDD to VBAT. This
external switchover signal can trigger a switchover to VBAT
at any time. Setting the bits INT1PRG[2:0] to 0bx01 in the
Interrupt Pins Configuration SFR (INTPR, 0xFF) enables
the battery control pin (see Table 15).
Switching from VBAT to VDD
To s witch V SWOUT from VBAT to VDD, all of the following events
that are enabled to force battery switchover must be false:
VDCIN < 1.2 V and VDD < 2.75 V enabled. If the low VDCIN
condition is enabled, VSWOUT switches to VDD after VDCIN
remains above 1.2 V and VDD remains above 2.75 V.
VDD < 2.75 V enabled. VSWOUT switches back to VDD after
VDD remains above 2.75 V.
BCTRL enabled. VSWOUT switches back to VDD after BCTRL
is high, and the first or second bullet point is satisfied.

POWER SUPPLY MANAGEMENT (PSM) INTERRUPT
The power supply management (PSM) interrupt alerts the 8052
core of power supply events. The PSM interrupt is disabled by
default. Setting the EPSM bit in the Interrupt Enable and Priority 2
SFR (IEIP2, 0xA9) enables the PSM interrupt (see Table 60).
The Power Management Interrupt Enable SFR (IPSME, 0xEC)
controls the events that result in a PSM interrupt (see Table 19).
Figure 28 is a diagram illustrating how the PSM interrupt vector
is shared among the PSM interrupt sources. The PSM interrupt
flags are latched and must be cleared by writing to the IPSMF flag
register (see Table 16).

Battery Switchover and Power Supply Restored
PSM Interrupt
The ADE7518 can be configured to generate a PSM interrupt
when the source of VSWOUT changes from VDD to VBAT, indicating
battery switchover. Setting the EBSO bit in the Power Management
Interrupt Enable SFR (IPSME, 0xEC) enables this event to generate
a PSM interrupt (see Table 19).
The ADE7518 can also be configured to generate an interrupt
when the source of VSWOUT changes from VBAT to VDD, indicating
that the VDD power supply has been restored. Setting the EPSR bit
in the Power Management Interrupt Enable SFR (IPSME, 0xEC)
enables this event to generate a PSM interrupt.
The flags in the IPSMF SFR for these interrupts, FBSO and
FPSR, are set regardless of whether the respective enable bits
have been set. The battery switchover and power supply restore
event flags, FBSO and FPSR, are latched. These events must be
cleared by writing 0 to these bits. Bit 6 in the Peripheral
Configuration SFR (PERIPH, 0xF4), VSWSOURCE, tracks the
source of VSWOUT. The bit is set when VSWOUT is connected to VDD
and cleared when VSWOUT is connected to VBAT.
VDCIN Monitor PSM Interrupt
The VDCIN voltage is monitored by a comparator. The FVDCIN
bit in the Power Management Interrupt Flag SFR (IPSMF, 0xF8)
is set when the VDCIN input level is lower than 1.2 V. Setting the
EVDCIN bit in the IPSME SFR enables this event to generate
a PSM interrupt. This event, which is associated with the SAG
monitoring, can be used to detect a power supply (VDD) being
compromised and to trigger further actions prior to deciding a
switch of VDD to VBAT.
SAG Monitor PSM Interrupt
The ADE7518 energy measurement DSP monitors the ac voltage
input at the VP and VN input pins. The SAGLVL register is used
to set the threshold for a line voltage SAG event. The FSAG bit
in the Power Management Interrupt Flag SFR (IPSMF, 0xF8) is
set if the line voltage stays below the level set in the SAGLVL
register for the number of line cycles set in the SAGCYC register.
See the Line Voltage SAG Detection section for more informa-
tion. Setting the ESAG bit in the Power Management Interrupt
Enable SFR (IPSME, 0xEC) enables this event to generate a
PSM interrupt.

USING THE POWER SUPPLY FEATURES
In an energy meter application, the 3.3 V power supply (VDD)
is typically generated from the ac line voltage and regulated to
3.3 V by a voltage regulator IC. The preregulated dc voltage,
typically 5 V to 12 V, can be connected to VDCIN through a resis-
tor divider. A 3.6 V battery can be connected to VBAT. Figure 29
shows how the ADE7518 power supply inputs are set up in this
application.
Figure 30 shows the sequence of events that occurs if the main
power supply generated by the PSU starts to fail in the power
meter application shown in Figure 29. The SAG detection can
provide the earliest warning of a potential problem on VDD.
When a SAG event occurs, user code can be configured to back
up data and prepare for battery switchover if desired. The rela-
tive spacing of these interrupts depends on the design of the
power supply.
Figure 31 shows the sequence of events that occurs if the main
power supply starts to fail in the power meter application shown
in Figure 29, with battery switchover on low VDCIN or low VDD
enabled.
Finally, the transition between VDD and VBAT and the different
power supply modes (see the Operating Modes section) are
represented in Figure 32 and Figure 33.

OPERATING MODES
PSM0 (NORMAL MODE)
In PSM0, normal operating mode, VSWOUT is connected to VDD.
All of the analog circuitry and digital circuitry powered by
VINTD and VINTA are enabled by default. In normal mode, the
default clock frequency, fCORE, established during a power-on
reset or software reset, is 1.024 MHz.
PSM1 (BATTERY MODE)
In PSM1, battery mode, VSWOUT is connected to VBAT. In this
operating mode, the 8052 core and all of the digital circuitry are
enabled by default. The analog circuitry for the ADE energy
metering DSP powered by VINTA is disabled. This analog circuitry
automatically restarts, and the switch to the VDD power supply
occurs when the VDD supply is above 2.75 V and the PWRDN
bit in the MODE1 register (0x0B) is cleared (see Table 31). The
default fCORE for PSM1, established during a power-on reset or
software reset, is 1.024 MHz.
PSM2 (SLEEP MODE)
PSM2 is a low power consumption sleep mode for use in battery
operation. In this mode, VSWOUT is connected to VBAT. All of the
2.5 V digital and analog circuitry powered through VINTA and VINTD
are disabled, including the MCU core, resulting in the following:
The RAM in the MCU is no longer valid.
The program counter for the 8052, also held in volatile
memory, becomes invalid when the 2.5 V supply is shut
down. Therefore, the program does not resume from
where it left off but always starts from the power-on reset
vector when the ADE7518 exits PSM2.
The 3.3 V peripherals (RTC, and LCD) are active in PSM2.
They can be enabled or disabled to reduce power consumption
and are configured for PSM2 operation when the MCU core is
active (see Table 27 for more information about the individual
peripherals and their PSM2 configuration). The ADE7518
remains in PSM2 until an event occurs to wake them up.
In PSM2, the ADE7518 provides four scratch pad RAM SFRs
that are maintained during this mode. These SFRs can be used
to save data from PSM0 or PSM1 when entering PSM2 (see
Table 20 to Table 23).
In PSM2, the ADE7518 maintains some SFRs (see Table 26).
The SFRs that are not listed in this table should be restored
when the part enters PSM0 or PSM1 from PSM2.

3.3 V PERIPHERALS AND WAKE-UP EVENTS
Some of the 3.3 V peripherals are capable of waking the ADE7518
from PSM2. The events that can cause the ADE7518 to wake up
from PSM2 are listed in the Wake-Up Event column in Table 27.
The interrupt flag associated with these events must be cleared
prior to executing instructions that put the ADE7518 in PSM2
mode after wake-up.

is set to indicate that VSWOUT is connected to VDD.
RTC Midnight Nonmaskable Midnight IRTC
The ADE7518 wakes up at midnight every day to update its
calendars. The RTC interrupt needs to be serviced and

Alarm Maskable Alarm IRTC An alarm can be set to wake the ADE7518 after the desired
amount of time. The RTC alarm is enabled by setting the
ALARM bit in the RTC Configuration SFR (TIMECON, 0xA1).
The RTC interrupt needs to be serviced and acknowledged
prior to entering PSM2 mode.

TRANSITIONING BETWEEN OPERATING MODES
The operating mode of the ADE7518 is determined by the power
supply connected to VSWOUT. Therefore, changes in the power
supply, such as when VSWOUT switches from VDD to VBAT or when
VSWOUT switches to VDD, alter the operating mode. This section
describes events that change the operating mode.
Automatic Battery Switchover (PSM0 to PSM1)
If any of the enabled battery switchover events occur (see the
Battery Switchover section), VSWOUT switches to VBAT. This switch-
over results in a transition from the PSM0 to PSM1 operating
mode. When battery switchover occurs, the analog circuitry used
in the ADE energy measurement DSP is disabled. To reduce power
consumption, the user code can initiate a transition to PSM2.
Entering Sleep Mode (PSM1 to PSM2)
To reduce power consumption when VSWOUT is connected to
VBAT, user code can initiate sleep mode, PSM2, by setting Bit 4
in the Power Control SFR (POWCON, 0xC5) to shut down the
MCU core. Events capable of waking the MCU can be enabled
(see the 3.3 V Peripherals and Wake-Up Events section).
Servicing Wake-Up Events (PSM2 to PSM1)
The ADE7518 may need to wake up from PSM2 to service
wake-up events (see the 3.3 V Peripherals and Wake-Up Events
section). PSM1 code execution begins at the power-on reset
vector. After servicing the wake-up event, the ADE7518 can be
returned to PSM2 by setting Bit 4 in the Power Control SFR
(POWCON, 0xC5) to shut down the MCU core.
Automatic Switch to VDD (PSM2 to PSM0)
If the conditions to switch VSWOUT from VBAT to VDD occur (see
the Battery Switchover section), the operating mode switches to
PSM0. When this switch occurs, the MCU core and the analog
circuitry used in the ADE energy measurement DSP automatically
restart. PSM0 code execution begins at the power-on reset vector.
Automatic Switch to VDD (PSM1 to PSM0)
If the conditions to switch VSWOUT from VBAT to VDD occur (see
the Battery Switchover section), the operating mode switches to
PSM0. When this switch occurs, the analog circuitry used in the
ADE energy measurement DSP automatically restarts. Note that
normal code execution continues. A software reset can be per-
formed to start PSM0 code execution at the power-on reset vector.
USING THE POWER MANAGEMENT FEATURES
Because program flow is different for each operating mode, the
status of VSWOUT must be known at all times. The VSWSOURCE
bit in the Peripheral Configuration SFR (PERIPH, 0xF4) indicates
what VSWOUT is connected to (see Table 18). This bit can be used
to control program flow on wake-up. Because code execution
always starts at the power-on reset vector, Bit 6 of the PERIPH
SRF can be tested to determine which power supply is being
used and to branch to normal code execution or to wake up
event code execution. Power supply events can also occur when
the MCU core is active. To be aware of the events that change
what VSWOUT is connected to, use the following guidelines:
Enable the battery switchover interrupt (EBSO)
if VSWOUT = VDD at power-up.
Enable the power supply restored interrupt (EPSR)
if VSWOUT = VBAT at power-up.
An early warning that battery switchover is about to occur is
provided by SAG detection and possibly low VDCIN detection
(see the Battery Switchover section).
For a user-controlled battery switchover, enable automatic
battery switchover on low VDD only. Then, enable the low VDCIN
event to generate the PSM interrupt. When a low VDCIN event
occurs, start data backup. Upon completion of the data backup,
enable battery switchover on low VDCIN. Battery switchover
occurs 30 ms later.

ENERGY MEASUREMENT
The ADE7518 offers a fixed function, energy measurement,
digital processing core that provides all the information needed
to measure energy in single-phase energy meters. The part
provides two ways to access the energy measurements: direct
access through SFRs for time sensitive information and indirect
access through address and data SFR registers for the majority
of energy measurements. The Irms, Vrms, interrupts, and waveform
registers are readily available through SFRs, as shown in Table 29.
Other energy measurement information is mapped to a page
of memory that is accessed indirectly through the MADDPT,
MDATL, MDATM, and MDATH SFRs. The address and data
registers act as pointers to the energy measurement internal
registers.
ACCESS TO ENERGY MEASUREMENT SFRs
Access to the energy measurement SFRs is achieved by reading
or writing to the SFR addresses detailed in Table 29. The internal
data for the MIRQx SFRs are latched byte by byte into the SFR
when the SFR is read.
The WAV1x, WAV2x, VRMSx, and IRMSx registers are all 3-byte
SFRs. The 24-bit data is latched into these SFRs when the high
byte is read. Reading the low or medium byte before the high
byte results in reading the data from the previous latched sample.
Sample code to read the VRMSx register is as follows:
MOV R1, VRMSH ;latches data in VRMSH,
VRMSM, and VRMSL SFRs
MOV R2, VRMSM
MOV R3, VRMSL
ACCESS TO INTERNAL ENERGY MEASUREMENT
REGISTERS
Access to the internal energy measurement registers is achieved
by writing to the Energy Measurement Pointer Address SFR
(MADDPT, 0x91). This SFR selects the energy measurement
register to be accessed and determines if a read or a write is
performed (see Table 28).
Table 28. Energy Measurement Pointer Address SFR
(MADDPT, 0x91)
Bit Description
7 1 = write, 0 = read
6 to 0 Energy measurement internal register address
Writing to the Internal Energy Measurement Registers
When Bit 7 of the Energy Measurement Pointer Address SFR
(MADDPT, 0x91) is set, the contents of the MDATx SFRs
(MDATL, MDATM, and MDATH) are transferred to the internal
energy measurement register designated by the address in the
MADDPT SFR. If the internal register is 1 byte long, only the
MDATL SFR content is copied to the internal register, and the
MDATM SFR and MDATH SFR contents are ignored.
The energy measurement core functions with an internal clock
of 4.096 MHz  5, or 819.2 kHz. Because the 8052 core functions
with another clock, 4.096 MHz  2CD, synchronization between
the two clock environments when CD = 0 or 1 is an issue. When
data is written to the internal energy measurement registers, a
small wait period needs to be implemented before another read
or write to these registers can take place.
Sample code to write 0x0155 to the 2-byte SAGLVL register
located at 0x14 in the energy measurement memory space is
as follows:
MOV MDATM,#01h
MOV MDATL,#55h
MOV MADDPT,#SAGLVL_W (Address 0x94)
MOV A,#05h
DJNZ ACC,$
;Next write or read to energy
measurement SFR can be done after
this.
Reading the Internal Energy Measurement Registers
When Bit 7 of Energy Measurement Pointer Address SFR
(MADDPT, 0x91) is cleared, the content of the internal energy
measurement register designated by the address in MADDPT
is transferred to the MDATx SFRs. If the internal register is
1 byte long, only the MDATL SFR content is updated with a
new value, whereas the MDATM SFR and MDATH SFR contents
are reset to 0x00.
The energy measurement core functions with an internal clock
of 4.096 MHz  5, or 819.2 kHz. Because the 8052 core functions
with another clock, 4.096 MHz  2CD, synchronization between
the two clock environments when CD = 0 or 1 is an issue. When
data is read from the internal energy measurement registers, a
small wait period needs to be implemented before the MDATx
SFRs are transferred to another SFR.
Sample code to read the peak voltage in the 2-byte VPKLVL
register located at 0x16 into the data pointer is as follows:
MOV MADDPT,#VPKLVL_R (Address 0x16)
MOV A,#05h
DJNZ ACC,$
MOV DPH,MDATM
MOV DPL,MDATL

ANALOG INPUTS
The ADE7518 has two fully differential voltage input channels.
The maximum differential input voltage for input pairs VP/VN
and IP/IN is ±0.4 V.
Each analog input channel has a programmable gain amplifier
(PGA) with possible gain selections of 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16. The
gain selections are made by writing to the GAIN register (see
Table 36 and Figure 36). Bit 0 to Bit 2 select the gain for the PGA
in the current channel, and Bit 5 to Bit 7 select the gain for the
PGA in the voltage channel. Figure 35 shows how a gain selection
for the current channel is made using the gain register.

ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERSION
Each ADE7518 has two Σ- analog-to-digital converters
(ADCs). The outputs of these ADCs are mapped directly to
waveform sampling SFRs (Address 0xE2 to Address 0xE7) and
are used for energy measurement internal digital signal processing.
In PSM1 (battery mode) and PSM2 (sleep mode), the ADCs are
powered down to minimize power consumption.
For simplicity, the block diagram in Figure 38 shows a first-
order Σ-∆ ADC. The converter is made up of the Σ-∆ modulator
and the digital low-pass filter.
A Σ-∆ modulator converts the input signal into a continuous serial
stream of 1s and 0s at a rate determined by the sampling clock.
In the ADE7518, the sampling clock is equal to 4.096 MHz/5.
The 1-bit DAC in the feedback loop is driven by the serial data
stream. The DAC output is subtracted from the input signal.
If the loop gain is high enough, the average value of the DAC
output (and, therefore, the bit stream) can approach that of the
input signal level.
For any given input value in a single sampling interval, the data
from the 1-bit ADC is virtually meaningless. A meaningful
result is obtained only when a large number of samples is
averaged. This averaging is carried into the second part of the
ADC, the digital low-pass filter. By averaging a large number of
bits from the modulator, the low-pass filter can produce 24-bit
data-words that are proportional to the input signal level.
The Σ-∆ converter uses two techniques to achieve high resolution
from what is essentially a 1-bit conversion technique. The first
is oversampling. Oversampling means that the signal is sampled
at a rate (frequency) that is many times higher than the bandwidth
of interest. For example, the sampling rate in the ADE7518 is
4.096 MHz/5, or 819.2 kHz, and the band of interest is 40 Hz to
2 kHz. Oversampling has the effect of spreading the quantization
noise (noise due to sampling) over a wider bandwidth. With the
noise spread more thinly over a wider bandwidth, the quantization
noise in the band of interest is lowered (see Figure 37).
However, oversampling alone is not efficient enough to improve
the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in the band of interest. For example,
an oversampling ratio of four is required to increase the SNR by
only 6 dB (1 bit). To keep the oversampling ratio at a reasonable
level, it is possible to shape the quantization noise so that the
majority of the noise lies at the higher frequencies. In the Σ-∆
modulator, the noise is shaped by the integrator, which has a
high-pass-type response for the quantization noise. The result is
that most of the noise is at the higher frequencies, where it can
be removed by the digital low-pass filter. This noise shaping is
shown in Figure 37.

Antialiasing Filter
Figure 38 also shows an analog low-pass filter (RC) on the input
to the modulator. This filter is present to prevent aliasing, an
artifact of all sampled systems. Aliasing means that frequency
components in the input signal to the ADC, which are higher
than half the sampling rate of the ADC, appear in the sampled
signal at a frequency below half the sampling rate. Figure 39
illustrates the effect. Frequency components (the black arrows)
above half the sampling frequency (also known as the Nyquist
frequency, that is, 409.6 kHz) are imaged or folded back down
below 409.6 kHz. This happens with all ADCs regardless of the
architecture. In the example shown in Figure 39, only frequencies
near the sampling frequency (819.2 kHz) move into the band of
interest for metering (40 Hz to 2 kHz). This allows the use of a
very simple low-pass filter (LPF) to attenuate high frequency
(near 819.2 kHz) noise and prevents distortion in the band of
interest.
For conventional current sensors, a simple RC filter (single-pole
LPF) with a corner frequency of 10 kHz produces an attenuation
of approximately 40 dB at 819.2 kHz (see Figure 39). The 20 dB
per decade attenuation is usually sufficient to eliminate the
effects of aliasing for conventional current sensors. However,
for a di/dt sensor such as a Rogowski coil, the sensor has a 20 dB
per decade gain. This neutralizes the −20 dB per decade attenua-
tion produced by one simple LPF. Therefore, when using a di/dt
sensor, care should be taken to offset the 20 dB per decade gain.
One simple approach is to cascade two RC filters to produce the
−40 dB per decade attenuation needed.

Figure 39. ADC and Signal Processing in Current Channel Outline Dimensions
ADC Transfer Function
Both ADCs in the ADE7518 are designed to produce the same
output code for the same input signal level. With a full-scale
signal on the input of 0.4 V and an internal reference of 1.2 V,
the ADC output code is nominally 2,147,483, or 0x20C49B. The
maximum code from the ADC is ±4,194,304; this is equivalent to
an input signal level of ±0.794 V. However, for specified perfor-
mance, it is recommended that the full-scale input signal level
of 0.4 V not be exceeded.
Current Channel ADC
Figure 40 shows the ADC and signal processing chain for the
current channel. In waveform sampling mode, the ADC outputs
a signed, twos complement, 24-bit data-word at a maximum of
25.6 kSPS (4.096 MHz/160).
With the specified full-scale analog input signal of 0.4 V and
PGA1 = 1, the ADC produces an output code that is approximately
between 0x20C49B (+2,147,483d) and 0xDF3B65 (−2,147,483d).
For inputs of 0.25 V, 0.125 V, 82.6 mV, and 31.3 mV with PGA1 = 2,
4, 8, and 16, respectively, the ADC produces an output code that
is approximately between 0x28F5C2 (+2,684,354d) and 0xD70A3E
(–2,684,354d).

Voltage Channel ADC
Figure 41 shows the ADC and signal processing chain for the
voltage channel. In waveform sampling mode, the ADC outputs
a signed, twos complement, 24-bit data-word at a maximum
of 25.6 kSPS (MCLK/160). The ADC produces an output code
that is approximately between 0x28F5 (+10,485d) and 0xD70B
(−10,485d).
Channel Sampling
The waveform samples of the current ADC and voltage ADC
can also be routed to the waveform registers to be read by the
MCU core. The active, reactive, apparent power, and energy
calculation remain uninterrupted during waveform sampling.
When in waveform sampling mode, one of four output sample
rates can be chosen by using the DTRT[1:0] bits of the WAVMODE
register (see Table 33). The output sample rate can be 25.6 kSPS,
12.8 kSPS, 6.4 kSPS, or 3.2 kSPS. If the WFSM enable bit is set
in the Interrupt Enable 3 SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB), the 8052
core has a pending ADE interrupt. The sampled signals selected
in the WAVMODE register are latched into the Waveform SFRs
when the waveform high byte (WAV1H or WAV2H) is read.
The ADE interrupt stays active until the WFSM status bit is
cleared (see the Energy Measurement Interrupts section).

Zero-Crossing Detection
Each ADE7518 has a zero-crossing detection circuit on the
voltage channel. This zero crossing is used to produce a zero-
crossing internal signal (ZX) and is used in calibration mode.
The zero-crossing is generated by default from the output of
LPF1. This filter has a low cutoff frequency and is intended for
50 Hz and 60 Hz systems. If needed, this filter can be disabled
to allow a higher frequency signal to be detected or to limit the
group delay of the detection. If the voltage input fundamental
frequency is below 60 Hz and a time delay in ZX detection is
acceptable, it is recommended to enable LPF1. Enabling LPF1
limits the variability in the ZX detection by eliminating the high
frequency components. Figure 42 shows how the zero-crossing
signal is generated.

Figure 42. Zero-Crossing Detection on the Voltage Channel
The zero-crossing signal ZX is generated from the output of
LPF1 (bypassed or not). LPF1 has a single pole at 63.7 Hz (at
MCLK = 4.096 MHz). As a result, there is a phase lag between
the analog input signal V2 and the output of LPF1. The phase
lag response of LPF1 results in a time delay of approximately
2 ms (@ 60 Hz) between the zero crossing on the analog inputs
of the voltage channel and ZX detection.
The zero-crossing detection also drives the ZX flag in the Interrupt
Status 3 SFR (MIRQSTH, 0xDE). If the ZX bit in the Interrupt
Enable 3 SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB) is set, the 8052 core has a
pending ADE interrupt. The ADE interrupt stays active until
the ZX status bit is cleared (see the Energy Measurement
Interrupts section).
Zero-Crossing Timeout
The zero-crossing detection also has an associated timeout
register, ZXTOUT. This unsigned, 12-bit register is decremented
(1 LSB) every 160/MCLK seconds. The register is reset to its
user-programmed full-scale value every time a zero crossing is
detected on the voltage channel. The default power-on value in
this register is 0xFFF. If the internal register decrements to 0
before a zero crossing is detected in the Interrupt Status 3 SFR
(MIRQSTH, 0xDE) and the ZXTO bit in the Interrupt Enable 3
SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB) is set, the 8052 core has a pending
ADE interrupt.
The ADE interrupt stays active until the ZXTO status bit is
cleared (see the Energy Measurement Interrupts section). The
ZXTOUT register (Address 0x11) can be written to or read from
the 8052 by the user (see the energy measurement register list in
Table 30). The resolution of the register is 160/MCLK seconds
per LSB. Thus, the maximum delay for an interrupt is 0.16 sec
(1/MCLK × 212) when MCLK = 4.096 MHz.
Figure 43 shows the mechanism of the zero-crossing timeout
detection when the line voltage stays at a fixed dc level for more
than MCLK/160 × ZXTOUT seconds.

Period or Frequency Measurements
The ADE7518 provides the period or frequency measurement
of the line. The period or frequency measurement is selected
by clearing or setting the FREQSEL bit in the MODE2 register
(0x0C). The period/frequency register, PER_FREQ register
(0x0A), is an unsigned 16-bit register that is updated every
period. If LPF1 is enabled, a settling time of 1.8 seconds is
associated with this filter before the measurement is stable.
When the period measurement is selected, the measurement has a
2.44 µs/LSB (4.096 MHz/10) resolution, which represents 0.014%
when the line frequency is 60 Hz. When the line frequency is
60 Hz, the value of the period register is approximately 0d6827.
The length of the register enables the measurement of line
frequencies as low as 12.5 Hz. The period register is stable at
±1 LSB when the line is established and the measurement does
not change.
When the frequency measurement is selected, the measurement
has a 0.0625 Hz/LSB resolution when MCLK = 4.096 MHz,
which represents 0.104% when the line frequency is 60 Hz.
When the line frequency is 60 Hz, the value of the frequency
register is 0d960. The frequency register is stable at ±4 LSB when
the line is established and the measurement does not change.

Line Voltage SAG Detection
In addition to detection of the loss of the line voltage signal
(zero crossing), the ADE7518 can also be programmed to detect
when the absolute value of the line voltage drops below a certain
peak value for a number of line cycles. This condition is illu-
strated in Figure 44.

Figure 44 shows the line voltage falling below a threshold that
is set in the SAG level register (SAGLVL[15:0]) for three line
cycles. The quantities 0 and 1 are not valid for the SAGCYC
register, and the contents represent one more than the desired
number of full line cycles. For example, when the SAG cycle
(SAGCYC[7:0]) contains 0x04, FSAG in the Power Management
Interrupt Flag SFR (IPSMF, 0xF8) is set at the end of the third
line cycle after the line voltage falls below the threshold. If the SAG
enable bit (ESAG) in the Power Management Interrupt Enable SFR
(IPSME, 0xEC) is set, the 8052 core has a pending power supply
management interrupt. The PSM interrupt stays active until the
ESAG bit is cleared (see the Power Supply Management (PSM)
Interrupt section).
In Figure 44, the SAG flag (FSAG) is set on the fifth line cycle
after the signal on the voltage channel first drops below the
threshold level.
SAG Level Set
The 2-byte contents of the SAG level register (SAGLVL, 0x14)
are compared to the absolute value of the output from LPF1.
Therefore, when LPF1 is enabled, writing 0x2038 to the SAG
level register puts the SAG detection level at full scale (see
Figure 44). Writing 0x00 or 0x01 puts the SAG detection level
at 0. The SAG level register is compared to the input of the ZX
detection, and detection is made when the contents of the SAG
level register are greater.
Peak Detection
The ADE7518 can also be programmed to detect when the
absolute value of the voltage or current channel exceeds a
specified peak value. Figure 45 illustrates the behavior of the
peak detection for the voltage channel. Both voltage and current
channels are monitored at the same time.

Figure 45. Peak Level Detection
Figure 45 shows a line voltage exceeding a threshold that is set in
the voltage peak register (VPKLVL[15:0]). The voltage peak event
is recorded by setting the PKV flag in the Interrupt Status 3 SFR
(MIRQSTH, 0xDE). If the PKV enable bit is set in the Interrupt
Enable 3 SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB), the 8052 core has a pending
ADE interrupt. Similarly, the current peak event is recorded by
setting the PKI flag in Interrupt Status 3 SFR (MIRQSTH, 0xDE).
The ADE interrupt stays active until the PKV or PKI status bit
is cleared (see the Energy Measurement Interrupts section).
Peak Level Set
The contents of the VPKLVL and IPKLVL registers are compared
to the absolute value of the voltage and the 2 MSBs of the current
channel, respectively. Thus, for example, the nominal maximum
code from the current channel ADC with a full-scale signal is
0x28F5C2 (see the Current Channel ADC section). Therefore,
writing 0x28F5 to the IPKLVL register puts the peak detection
level of the current channel at full scale and sets the current
peak detection to its least sensitive value. Writing 0x00 puts the
current channel detection level at 0. The detection is done by
comparing the contents of the IPKLVL register to the incoming
current channel sample. The PKI flag indicates that the peak
level is exceeded. If the PKI or PKV bit is set in the Interrupt
Enable 3 SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB), the 8052 core has a pending
ADE interrupt.
Peak Level Record
Each ADE7518 records the maximum absolute value reached by
the voltage and current channels in two different registers,
IPEAK and VPEAK, respectively. Each register is a 24-bit
unsigned register that is updated each time the absolute value of
the waveform sample from the corresponding channel is above
the value stored in the VPEAK or IPEAK register. The contents
of the VPEAK register correspond to the maximum absolute
value observed on the voltage channel input. The contents of
IPEAK and VPEAK represent the maximum absolute value
observed on the current and voltage input, respectively. Reading
the RSTVPEAK and RSTIPEAK registers clears their respective
contents after the read operation.

PHASE COMPENSATION
The ADE7518 must work with transducers that can have
inherent phase errors. For example, a phase error of 0.1° to 0.
is not uncommon for a current transformer (CT). These phase
errors can vary from part to part, and they must be corrected to
perform accurate power calculations. The errors associated with
phase mismatch are particularly noticeable at low power factors.
The ADE7518 provides a means of digitally calibrating these
small phase errors. The part allows a small time delay or time
advance to be introduced into the signal processing chain to
compensate for small phase errors. Because the compensation is
in time, this technique should only be used for small phase
errors in the range of 0.1° to 0.5°. Correcting large phase errors
using a time shift technique can introduce significant phase
errors at higher harmonics.
The phase calibration register (PHCAL[7:0]) is a twos complement,
signed, single-byte register that has values ranging from 0x82
(−126d) to 0x68 (+104d).
The PHCAL register is centered at 0x40, meaning that writing
0x40 to the register results in 0 delay. By changing this register,
the time delay in the voltage channel signal path can change
from −231.93 µs to +48.83 µs (MCLK = 4.096 MHz). One LSB
is equivalent to a 1.22 µs (4.096 MHz/5) time delay or advance.
A line frequency of 60 Hz gives a phase resolution of 0.026° at
the fundamental (that is, 360° × 1.22 µs × 60 Hz).
Figure 46 illustrates how the phase compensation is used to
remove a 0.1° phase lead in the current channel due to the
external transducer. To cancel the lead (0.1°) in the current
channel, a phase lead must also be introduced into the voltage
channel. The resolution of the phase adjustment allows the
introduction of a phase lead in increments of 0.026°. The phase
lead is achieved by introducing a time advance into the voltage
channel. A time advance of 4.88 µs is made by writing −4 (0x3C)
to the time delay block, thus reducing the amount of time delay
by 4.88 µs, or equivalently, a phase lead of approximately 0.1° at a
line frequency of 60 Hz (0x3C represents −4 because the register is
centered with 0 at 0x40).

For time sampling signals, rms calculation involves squaring the
signal, taking the average, and obtaining the square root. The
ADE7518 implements this method by serially squaring the input,
averaging them, and then taking the square root of the average.
The averaging part of this signal processing is done by implement-
ing a low-pass filter (LPF3 in Figure 47, Figure 48, and Figure 50).
This LPF has a −3 dB cutoff frequency of 2 Hz when MCLK =

Figure 47. RMS Signal Processing
The Irms signal can be read from the waveform register by setting
the WAVMODE register (0x0D) and setting the WFSM bit in
the Interrupt Enable 3 SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB). Like the current
and voltage channels waveform sampling modes, the waveform
data is available at a sample rate of 25.6 kSPS, 12.8 kSPS, 6.4 kSPS,
or 3.2 kSPS.
It is important to note that when the current input is larger than
40% of full scale, the Irms waveform sample register does not
represent the true processed rms value. The rms value processed
with this level of input is larger than the 24-bit read by the wave-
form register, making the value read truncated on the high end.

Current Channel RMS Calculation
Each ADE7518 simultaneously calculates the rms values for the
current and voltage channels in different registers. Figure 48 shows
the detail of the signal processing chain for the rms calculation on
the current channel. The current channel rms value is processed
from the samples used in the current channel waveform sampling
mode and is stored in an unsigned 24-bit register (Irms). One
LSB of the current channel rms register is equivalent to one LSB
of a current channel waveform sample.
The update rate of the current channel rms measurement is
4.096 MHz/5. To minimize noise in the reading of the register,
the Irms register can also be configured to update only with the
zero crossing of the voltage input. This configuration is done by
setting the ZXRMS bit in the MODE2 register (0x0C).
With the different specified full-scale analog input signal PGA1
values, the ADC produces an output code that is approximately
±0d2,147,483 (PGA1 = 1) or ±0d2,684,354 (PGA1 = 2, 4, 8, or 16).
See the Current Channel ADC section. Similarly, the equivalent
rms value of a full-scale ac signal is 0d1,518,499 (0x172BA3)
when PGA = 1 and 0d1,898,124 (0x1CF68C) when PGA1 = 2,
4, 8, or 16. The current rms measurement provided in the
ADE7518 is accurate to within 0.5% for signal inputs between
full scale and full scale/500. The conversion from the register
value to amps must be done externally in the microprocessor
using an amps/LSB constant.
Current Channel RMS Offset Compensation
The ADE7518 incorporates a current channel rms offset
compensation register (IRMSOS). This is a 12-bit signed register
that can be used to remove offset in the current channel rms
calculation. An offset can exist in the rms calculation due to
input noises that are integrated into the dc component of V2(t).
One LSB of the current channel rms offset is equivalent to
16,384 LSBs of the square of the current channel rms register.
Assuming that the maximum value from the current channel
rms calculation is 0d1,898,124 with full-scale ac inputs, then
1 LSB of the current channel rms offset represents 0.23% of
measurement error at −60 dB down from full scale.

Voltage Channel RMS Calculation
Figure 50 shows details of the signal processing chain for the
rms calculation on the voltage channel. The voltage channel
rms value is processed from the samples used in the voltage
channel waveform sampling mode and is stored in the unsigned
24-bit Vrms register.
The update rate of the voltage channel rms measurement is
MCLK/5. To minimize noise in the reading of the register, the
Vrms register can also be configured to update only with the
zero crossing of the voltage input. This configuration is done
by setting the ZXRMS bit in the MODE2 register (0x0C).
With the specified full-scale ac analog input signal of 0.4 V, the
output from the LPF1 in Figure 50 swings between 0x28F5 and
0xD70B at 60 Hz (see the Voltage Channel ADC section). The
equivalent rms value of this full-scale ac signal is approximately
0d1,898,124 (0x1CF68C) in the Vrms register. The voltage rms
measurement provided in the ADE7518 is accurate to within
±0.5% for signal input between full scale and full scale/20.
The conversion from the register value to volts must be done
externally in the microprocessor using a V/LSB constant.
Voltage Channel RMS Offset Compensation
The ADE7518 incorporates a voltage channel rms offset compensa-
tion register (VRMSOS). This is a 12-bit signed register that can
be used to remove offset in the voltage channel rms calculation.
An offset can exist in the rms calculation due to input noises
and dc offset in the input samples. One LSB of the voltage
channel rms offset is equivalent to 64 LSBs of the rms register.
Assuming that the maximum value from the voltage channel
rms calculation is 0d1,898,124 with full-scale ac inputs, then
1 LSB of the voltage channel rms offset represents 3.37% of
measurement error at −60 dB down from full scale.
Vrms = Vrms0 + 64 × VRMSOS (5)
where Vrms0 is the rms measurement without offset correction.
ACTIVE POWER CALCULATION
Active power is defined as the rate of energy flow from source
to load. It is the product of the voltage and current waveforms.
The resulting waveform is called the instantaneous power signal
and is equal to the rate of energy flow at every instant of time.
The unit of power is watt or joules/second. Equation 8 gives an
expression for the instantaneous power signal in an ac system.

Note that the active power is equal to the dc component of the

is the relationship used to calculate active power in the ADE7518.
The instantaneous power signal p(t) is generated by multiplying the
current and voltage signals. The dc component of the instantaneous
power signal is then extracted by LPF2 (low-pass filter) to obtain
the active power information. This process is illustrated in
Figure 49.

Because LPF2 does not have an ideal brick wall frequency response
(see Figure 51), the active power signal has some ripple due to
the instantaneous power signal. This ripple is sinusoidal and
has a frequency equal to twice the line frequency. Because of its
sinusoidal nature, the ripple is removed when the active power
signal is integrated to calculate energy (see the Active Energy
Calculation section).

Active Power Gain Calibration
Figure 52 shows the signal processing chain for the active
power calculation in the ADE7518. As explained previously,
the active power is calculated by filtering the output of the
multiplier with a low-pass filter. Note that when reading the
waveform samples from the output of LPF2, the gain of the
active energy can be adjusted by using the multiplier and watt
gain register (WGAIN[11:0]). The gain is adjusted by writing
a twos complement 12-bit word to the watt gain register.
Equation 10 shows how the gain adjustment is related to the
contents of the watt gain register.
+×= 12
2
1WGAIN
PowerActiveWGAINOutput (10)
For example, when 0x7FF is written to the watt gain register, the
power output is scaled up by 50% (0x7FF = 2047d, 2047/212 = 0.5).
Similarly, 0x800 = −2048d (signed, twos complement) and
power output is scaled by –50%. Each LSB scales the power
output by 0.0244%. The minimum output range is given when
the watt gain register contents are equal to 0x800 and the
maximum range is given by writing 0x7FF to the watt gain
register. This watt gain register can be used to calibrate the
active power (or energy) calculation in the ADE7518.
Active Power Offset Calibration
The ADE7518 also incorporates an active power offset register
(WATTOS[15:0]). It is a signed, twos complement, 16-bit register
that can be used to remove offsets in the active power calculation
(see Figure 49). An offset can exist in the power calculation due
to crosstalk between channels on the PCB or in the IC itself. The
offset calibration allows the contents of the active power register
to be maintained at 0 when no power is being consumed.
The 256 LSBs (WATTOS = 0x0100) written to the active power
offset register are equivalent to 1 LSB in the waveform sample
register. Assuming the average value, output from LPF2 is
0xCCCCD (838,861d) when inputs on the voltage and current
channels are both at full scale. At −60 dB below full scale on the
current channel (1/1000 of the current channel full-scale input),
the average word value output from LPF2 is 838.861
(838,861/1000). One LSB in the LPF2 output has a measurement
error of 1/838.861 × 100% = 0.119% of the average value. The
active power offset register has a resolution equal to 1/256 LSB
of the waveform register. Therefore, the power offset correction
resolution is 0.000464%/LSB (0.119%/256) at −60 dB.
Active Power Sign Detection
The ADE7518 detects a change of sign in the active power. The
APSIGN flag in the Interrupt Status 1 SFR (MIRQSTL, 0xDC)
records when a change of sign has occurred according to Bit
APSIGN in the ACCMODE register (0x0F). If the APSIGN flag
is set in the Interrupt Enable 1 SFR (MIRQENL, 0xD9), the
8052 core has a pending ADE interrupt. The ADE interrupt
stays active until the APSIGN status bit is cleared (see the
Energy Measurement Interrupts section).
When APSIGN in the ACCMODE register (0x0F) is cleared
(default), the APSIGN flag in the Interrupt Status 1 SFR
(MIRQSTL, 0xDC) is set when a transition from positive to
negative active power has occurred.
If APSIGN in the ACCMODE register (0x0F) is set, the
APSIGN flag in the MIRQSTL SFR is set when a transition
from negative to positive active power occurs.
Active Power No Load Detection
The ADE7518 includes a no load threshold feature on the active
energy that eliminates any creep effects in the meter. The part
accomplishes this by not accumulating energy if the multiplier
output is below the no load threshold. When the active power is
below the no load threshold, the APNOLOAD flag in the Interrupt
Status 1 SFR (MIRQSTL, 0xDC) is set. If the APNOLOAD bit is
set in the Interrupt Enable 1 SFR (MIRQENL, 0xD9), the 8052 core
has a pending ADE interrupt. The ADE interrupt stays active
until the APNOLOAD status bit is cleared (see the Energy
Measurement Interrupts section).
The no load threshold level is selectable by setting the
APNOLOAD bits in the NLMODE register (0x0E). Setting
these bits to 0b00 disables the no load detection, and setting
them to 0b01, 0b10, or 0b11 sets the no load detection threshold
to 0.015%, 0.0075%, or 0.0037%, respectively, of the multipliers
full-scale output frequency. The IEC 62053-21 specification
states that the meter must start up with a load equal to or less
than 0.4% IP, which translates to 0.0167% of the full-scale
output frequency of the multiplier.

ACTIVE ENERGY CALCULATION
As stated in the Active Power Calculation section, power is
defined as the rate of energy flow. This relationship can be
expressed mathematically in Equation 11.
dt
dE
P= (11)
where:
P is power.
E is energy.
Conversely, energy is given as the integral of power.
=dttPE )( (12)
The ADE7518 achieves the integration of the active power signal by
continuously accumulating the active power signal in an internal,
nonreadable, 49-bit energy register. The active energy register
(WATTHR[23:0]) represents the upper 24 bits of this internal
register. This discrete time accumulation or summation is
equivalent to integration in continuous time. Equation 13
expresses the relationship.
×==
=
1
0)(lim)( n
tTnTpdttpE (13)
where:
n is the discrete time sample number.
T is the sample period.
The discrete time sample period (T) for the accumulation
register in the ADE7518 is 1.22 µs (5/MCLK). In addition to
calculating the energy, this integration removes any sinusoidal
components that may be in the active power signal. Figure 52
shows this discrete time integration or accumulation. The active
power signal in the waveform register is continuously added to
the internal active energy register.
The active energy accumulation depends on the setting of the
POAM and ABSAM bits in the ACCMODE register (0x0F).
When both bits are cleared, the addition is signed and, therefore,
negative energy is subtracted from the active energy contents.
When both bits are set, the ADE7518 is set to be in the more
restrictive mode, the positive-only accumulation mode.
When POAM in the ACCMODE register (0x0F) is set, only posi-
tive power contributes to the active energy accumulation. When
ABSAM in the ACCMODE register (0x0F) is set, the absolute
active power is used for the active energy accumulation (see the
Watt-Absolute Accumulation Mode section).
The output of the multiplier is divided by the value in the
WDIV register. If the value in the WDIV register is equal to 0,
the internal active energy register is divided by 1. WDIV is an
8-bit unsigned register. After dividing by WDIV, the active
energy is accumulated in a 49-bit internal energy accumulation
register. The upper 24 bits of this register are accessible through
a read to the active energy register (WATTHR[23:0]). A read to
the RWATTHR register returns the content of the WATTHR
register, and the upper 24 bits of the internal register are cleared.
As shown in Figure 52, the active power signal is accumulated
in an internal 49-bit signed register. The active power signal can
be read from the waveform register by setting the WAVMODE
register (0x0D) and setting the WFSM bit in the Interrupt Enable 3
SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB). Like the current and voltage channels
waveform sampling modes, the waveform data is available at a
sample rate of 25.6 kSPS, 12.8 kSPS, 6.4 kSPS, or 3.2 kSPS.

Note that the energy register contents roll over to full-scale
negative (0x800000) and continue to increase in value when the
power or energy flow is positive (see Figure 53). Conversely, if
the power is negative, the energy register underflows to full-
scale positive (0x7FFFFF) and continues to decrease in value.
By using the interrupt enable register, the ADE7518 can be
configured to issue an ADE interrupt to the 8052 core when the
active energy register is half full (positive or negative) or when
an overflow or underflow occurs.
Integration Time Under Steady Load: Active Energy
As mentioned previously, the discrete time sample period (T)
for the accumulation register is 1.22 µs (5/MCLK). With full-
scale sinusoidal signals on the analog inputs and the WGAIN
register set to 0x000, the average word value from each LPF2
is 0xCCCCD (see Figure 49). The maximum positive value
that can be stored in the internal 49-bit register is 248 (or
0xFFFF,FFFF,FFFF) before it overflows. The integration time
under these conditions when WDIV = 0 is calculated in the
following equation:

When WDIV is set to a value other than 0, the integration time

Active Energy Accumulation Modes
Watt-Signe d Accumulation Mode
The ADE7518 active energy default accumulation mode is a
watt-signed accumulation based on the active power information.
Watt Positive-Only Accumulation Mode
The ADE7518 is placed in watt positive-only accumulation mode
by setting the POAM bit in the ACCMODE register (0x0F). In
this mode, the energy accumulation is only done for positive
power, ignoring any occurrence of negative power above or
below the no load threshold (see Figure 54). The CF pulse also
reflects this accumulation method when in this mode. The
default setting for this mode is off. Detection of the transitions
in the direction of power flow and detection of no load threshold
are active in this mode.

Active Energy Pulse Output
All of the ADE7518 circuitry has a pulse output whose frequency is
proportional to active power (see the Active Power Calculation
section). This pulse frequency output uses the calibrated signal
from the WGAIN register output, and its behavior is consistent
with the setting of the active energy accumulation mode in the
ACCMODE register (0x0F). The pulse output is active low and
should be preferably connected to an LED, as shown in Figure 66.
Line Cycle Active Energy Accumulation Mode
In line cycle active energy accumulation mode, the energy
accumulation of the ADE7518 can be synchronized to the
voltage channel zero crossing so that active energy can be
accumulated over an integer number of half-line cycles. The
advantage of summing the active energy over an integer number
of line cycles is that the sinusoidal component in the active energy
is reduced to 0. This eliminates any ripple in the energy calculation.
Energy is calculated more accurately and more quickly because
the integration period can be shortened. By using this mode,
the energy calibration can be greatly simplified, and the time
required to calibrate the meter can be significantly reduced.
In line cycle active energy accumulation mode, the ADE7518
accumulates the active power signal in the LWATTHR register
for an integral number of line cycles, as shown in Figure 56. The
number of half-line cycles is specified in the LINCYC register.
The ADE7518 can accumulate active power for up to 65,535
half-line cycles. Because the active power is integrated on an
integer number of line cycles, the CYCEND flag in the Interrupt
Status 3 SFR (MIRQSTH, 0xDE) is set at the end of an active
energy accumulation line cycle. If the CYCEND enable bit in
the Interrupt Enable 3 SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB) is set, the 8052
core has a pending ADE interrupt. The ADE interrupt stays
active until the CYCEND status bit is cleared (see the Energy
Measurement Interrupts section). Another calibration cycle
starts as soon as the CYCEND flag is set. If the LWATTHR
register is not read before a new CYCEND flag is set, the
LWATTHR register is overwritten by a new value.

When a new half-line cycle is written in the LINCYC register,
the LWATTHR register is reset, and a new accumulation starts
at the next zero crossing. The number of half-line cycles is then
counted until LINCYC is reached. This implementation provides a
valid measurement at the first CYCEND interrupt after writing
to the LINCYC register (see Figure 57). The line active energy
accumulation uses the same signal path as the active energy
accumulation. The LSB size of these two registers is equivalent.

Note that in this mode, the 16-bit LINCYC register can hold

accumulation mode can be used to accumulate active energy
for a maximum duration of over 65,535 half-line cycles. At
a 60 Hz line frequency, this translates to a total duration of
65,535/120 Hz = 546 sec.
REACTIVE POWER CALCULATION
Reactive power is defined as the product of the voltage and current
waveforms when one of these signals is phase-shifted by 90°.
The resulting waveform is called the instantaneous reactive
power signal. Equation 21 gives an expression for the instanta-
neous reactive power signal in an ac system when the phase of
the current channel is shifted by 90°.

where:

q is referred to as the reactive power.
Note that the reactive power is equal to the dc component of
the instantaneous reactive power signal q(t) in Equation 21.
The instantaneous reactive power signal q(t) is generated by
multiplying the voltage and current channels. In this case, the
phase of the current channel is shifted by 90°. The dc component
of the instantaneous reactive power signal is then extracted by
a low-pass filter to obtain the reactive power information (see
Figure 58).
In addition, the phase-shifting filter has a nonunity magnitude
response. Because the phase-shifted filter has a large attenuation
at high frequency, the reactive power is primarily for calculation
at line frequency. The effect of harmonics is largely ignored in
the reactive power calculation. Note that, because of the magnitude
characteristic of the phase shifting filter, the weight of the reactive
power is slightly different from that of the active power calculation
(see the Energy Register Scaling section).
The frequency response of the LPF in the reactive signal path is
identical to the one used for LPF2 in the average active power
calculation. Because LPF2 does not have an ideal brick wall
frequency response (see Figure 51), the reactive power signal
has some ripple due to the instantaneous reactive power signal.
This ripple is sinusoidal and has a frequency equal to twice the
line frequency. Because the ripple is sinusoidal in nature, it is
removed when the reactive power signal is integrated to calcu-
late energy.
The reactive power signal can be read from the waveform register
by setting the WAVMODE register (0x0D) and the WFSM bit in
the Interrupt Enable 3 SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB). Like the current
and voltage channels waveform sampling modes, the waveform
data is available at a sample rate of 25.6 kSPS, 12.8 kSPS, 6.4 kSPS,
or 3.2 kSPS.

Reactive Power Gain Calibration
Figure 58 shows the signal processing chain for the ADE7518
reactive power calculation. As explained in the Reactive Power
Calculation section, the reactive power is calculated by applying a
low-pass filter to the instantaneous reactive power signal. Note
that, when reading the waveform samples from the output of
LPF2, the gain of the reactive energy can be adjusted by using
the multiplier and by writing a twos complement, 12-bit word
to the VAR gain register (VARGAIN[11:0]). Equation 23 shows
how the gain adjustment is related to the contents of the watt
gain register.
Output VARGAIN =
+× 12

1VARGAIN
PowerReactive (23)
The resolution of the VARGAIN register is the same as the
WGAIN register (see the Active Power Gain Calibration
section). VARGAIN can be used to calibrate the reactive
power (or energy) calculation in the ADE7518.
Reactive Power Offset Calibration
The ADE7518 also incorporates a reactive power offset register
(VAROS[15:0]). This is a signed, twos complement, 16-bit register
that can be used to remove offsets in the reactive power calculation
(see Figure 58). An offset may exist in the reactive power calcula-
tion due to crosstalk between channels on the PCB or in the IC
itself. The offset calibration allows the contents of the reactive
power register to be maintained at 0 when no power is being
consumed.
The 256 LSBs (VAROS = 0x100) written to the reactive power
offset register are equivalent to 1 LSB in the WAVMODE register.
Sign of Reactive Power Calculation
Note that the average reactive power is a signed calculation.
The phase-shift filter has −90° phase shift when the integrator
is enabled, and +90° phase shift when the integrator is disabled.
Table 43 summarizes how the relationship of the phase difference
between the voltage and the current affects the sign of the resulting
VAR ca l c u l a t i o n.
Table 43. Sign of Reactive Power Calculation
Angle Integrator Sign
Between 0° to +90° Off Positive
Between –90° to 0° Off Negative
Between 0° to +90° On Positive
Between –90° to 0° On Negative
Reactive Power Sign Detection
The ADE7518 detects a change of sign in the reactive power.
The VARSIGN flag in the Interrupt Status 1 SFR (MIRQSTL,
0xDC) records when a change of sign has occurred according
to the VARSIGN bit in the ACCMODE register (0x0F). If the
VARSIGN bit is set in the Interrupt Enable 1 SFR (MIRQENL,
0xD9), the 8052 core has a pending ADE interrupt. The ADE
interrupt stays active until the VARSIGN status bit is cleared
(see the Energy Measurement Interrupts section).
When VARSIGN in the ACCMODE register (0x0F) is cleared
(default), the VARSIGN flag in the Interrupt Status 1 SFR
(MIRQSTL, 0xDC) is set when a transition from positive to
negative reactive power occurs.
If VARSIGN in the ACCMODE register (0x0F) is set, the
VARSIGN flag in the Interrupt Status 1 SFR (MIRQSTL,
0xDC) is set when a transition from negative to positive
reactive power occurs.
Reactive Power No Load Detection
The ADE7518 includes a no load threshold feature on the reactive
energy that eliminates any creep effects in the meter. The ADE7518
accomplishes this by not accumulating reactive energy when
the multiplier output is below the no load threshold. When the
reactive power is below the no load threshold, the RNOLOAD
flag in the Interrupt Status 1 SFR (MIRQSTL, 0xDC) is set. If the
RNOLOAD bit is set in the Interrupt Enable 1 SFR (MIRQENL,
0xD9), the 8052 core has a pending ADE interrupt. The ADE
interrupt stays active until the RNOLOAD status bit is cleared
(see the Energy Measurement Interrupts section).
The no load threshold level is selectable by setting the
VARNOLOAD bits in the NLMODE register (0x0E). Setting
these bits to 0b00 disables the no load detection, and setting
them to 0b01, 0b10, or 0b11 sets the no load detection threshold
to 0.015%, 0.0075%, and 0.0037% of the full-scale output
frequency of the multiplier, respectively.
REACTIVE ENERGY CALCULATION
As for reactive energy, the ADE7518 achieves the integration of
the reactive power signal by continuously accumulating the
reactive power signal in an internal, nonreadable, 49-bit energy
register. The reactive energy register (VARHR[23:0]) represents
the upper 24 bits of this internal register.
The discrete time sample period (T) for the accumulation register
in the ADE7518 is 1.22 µs (5/MCLK). As well as calculating the
energy, this integration removes any sinusoidal components
that may be in the active power signal. Figure 58 shows this
discrete time integration or accumulation. The reactive power
signal in the waveform register is continuously added to the
internal reactive energy register.
The reactive energy accumulation depends on the setting of the
SAVARM and ABSVARM bits in the ACCMODE register (0x0F).
When both bits are cleared, the addition is signed and, therefore,
negative energy is subtracted from the reactive energy contents.
When both bits are set, the ADE7518 is set to be in the more
restrictive mode, the absolute accumulation mode.
ADE7518
Rev. 0 | Page 55 of 128
When SAVARM in the ACCMODE register (0x0F) is set, the
reactive power is accumulated depending on the sign of the
active power. When active power is positive, the reactive power
is added as it is to the reactive energy register. When active
power is negative, the reactive power is subtracted from the
reactive energy accumulator (see the VAR Antitamper
Accumulation Mode section).
When ABSVARM in the ACCMODE register (0x0F) is set, the
absolute reactive power is used for the reactive energy accumu-
lation (see the VAR Absolute Accumulation Mode section).
The output of the multiplier is divided by VARDIV. If the value
in the VARDIV register is equal to 0, the internal reactive
energy register is divided by 1. VARDIV is an 8-bit, unsigned
register. After dividing by VARDIV, the reactive energy is
accumulated in a 49-bit internal energy accumulation register.
The upper 24 bits of this register are accessible through a read
to the reactive energy register (VARHR[23:0]). A read to the
RVARHR register returns the content of the VARHR register,
and the upper 24 bits of the internal register are cleared.
As shown in Figure 58, the reactive power signal is accumulated
in an internal 49-bit signed register. The reactive power signal
can be read from the waveform register by setting the WAVMODE
register (0x0D) and setting the WFSM bit in the Interrupt Enable 3
SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB). Like the current and voltage channel
waveform sampling modes, the waveform data is available at a
sample rate of 25.6 kSPS, 12.8 kSPS, 6.4 kSPS, or 3.2 kSPS.
Figure 53 shows this energy accumulation for full-scale signals
(sinusoidal) on the analog inputs. These curves also apply for
the reactive energy accumulation.
Note that the energy register contents roll over to full-scale
negative (0x800000) and continue to increase in value when
the power or energy flow is positive. Conversely, if the power is
negative, the reactive energy register underflows to full-scale
positive (0x7FFFFF) and continues to decrease in value.
By using the interrupt enable register, the ADE7518 can be
configured to issue an ADE interrupt to the 8052 core when the
reactive energy register is half full (positive or negative) or
when an overflow or underflow occurs.

Integration Time Under Steady Load: Reactive Energy
As mentioned in the Active Energy Calculation section, the
discrete time sample period (T) for the accumulation register is
1.22 µs (5/MCLK). With full-scale sinusoidal signals on the
analog inputs and the VARGAIN and VARDIV registers set to

The ADE7518 reactive energy default accumulation mode is a
signed accumulation based on the reactive power information.
VAR Antitamper Accumulation Mode
The ADE7518 is placed in VAR antitamper accumulation mode
by setting the SAVARM bit in the ACCMODE register (0x0F). In
this mode, the reactive power is accumulated depending on the
sign of the active power. When active power is positive, the
reactive power is added as it is to the reactive energy register.
When active power is negative, the reactive power is subtracted
from the reactive energy accumulator (see Figure 59). The CF
pulse also reflects this accumulation method when in this mode.
The default setting for this mode is off. Transitions in the direction
of power flow and no load threshold are active in this mode.

The ADE7518 is placed in absolute accumulation mode by
setting the ABSVARM bit in the ACCMODE register (0x0F). In
absolute accumulation mode, the reactive energy accumulation
is done by using the absolute reactive power and ignoring any
occurrence of power below the no load threshold for the active
energy (see Figure 60). The CF pulse also reflects this accumula-
tion method when in absolute accumulation mode. The default
setting for this mode is off. Transitions in the direction of power

Reactive Energy Pulse Output
The ADE7518 provides all the circuitry with a pulse output
whose frequency is proportional to reactive power (see the
Energy-to-Frequency Conversion section). This pulse fre-
quency output uses the calibrated signal after VARGAIN, and
its behavior is consistent with the setting of the reactive energy
accumulation mode in the ACCMODE register (0x0F). The
pulse output is active low and should preferably be connected to an
LED, as shown in Figure 66.
Line Cycle Reactive Energy Accumulation Mode
In line cycle reactive energy accumulation mode, the energy
accumulation of the ADE7518 can be synchronized to the
voltage channel zero crossing so that reactive energy can be
accumulated over an integer number of half-line cycles. The
advantage of this mode is similar to that described in the Line
Cycle Active Energy Accumulation Mode section.
In line cycle active energy accumulation mode, the ADE7518
accumulates the reactive power signal in the LVARHR register
for an integral number of line cycles, as shown in Figure 61. The
number of half-line cycles is specified in the LINCYC register.
The ADE7518 can accumulate active power for up to 65,535
half-line cycles.
Because the reactive power is integrated on an integer number
of line cycles, the CYCEND flag in the Interrupt Status 3 SFR
(MIRQSTH, 0xDE) is set at the end of an active energy accumula-
tion line cycle. If the CYCEND enable bit in the Interrupt Enable 3
SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB) is set, the 8052 core has a pending
ADE interrupt. The ADE interrupt stays active until the CYCEND
status bit is cleared (see the Energy Measurement Interrupts
section). Another calibration cycle starts as soon as the CYCEND
flag is set. If the LVARHR register is not read before a new
CYCEND flag is set, the LVARHR register is overwritten by a
new value.
When a new half-line cycle is written in the LINCYC register,
the LVARHR register is reset, and a new accumulation starts at
the next zero crossing. The number of half-line cycles is then
counted until LINCYC is reached. This implementation provides a
valid measurement at the first CYCEND interrupt after writing
to the LINCYC register. The line reactive energy accumulation
uses the same signal path as the reactive energy accumulation.
The LSB size of these two registers is equivalent.

APPARENT POWER CALCULATION
Apparent power is defined as the maximum power that can be
delivered to a load. Vrms and Irms are the effective voltage and
current delivered to the load, respectively. Therefore, the apparent
power (AP) = Vrms × Irms. This equation is independent from the
phase angle between the current and the voltage.
Equation 29 gives an expression of the instantaneous power
signal in an ac system with a phase shift.

Figure 62 illustrates the signal processing for the calculation of
the apparent power in the ADE7518.
The apparent power signal can be read from the waveform register
by setting the WAVMODE register (0x0D) and setting the WFSM
bit in the Interrupt Enable 3 SFR (MIRQENH, 0xDB). Like the
current and voltage channel waveform sampling modes, the
waveform data is available at a sample rate of 25.6 kSPS, 12.8 kSPS,
6.4 kSPS, or 3.2 kSPS.
The gain of the apparent energy can be adjusted by using the
multiplier and by writing a twos complement, 12-bit word to the
VAGAIN register (VAGAIN[11:0]). Equation 30 shows how the
gain adjustment is related to the contents of the VAGAIN register.
Output VAGAIN =

PowerApparent (30)
For example, when 0x7FF is written to the VAGAIN register, the
power output is scaled up by 50% (0x7FF = 2047d, 2047/212 = 0.5).
Similarly, 0x800 = –2047d (signed twos complement) and power
output is scaled by –50%. Each LSB represents 0.0244% of the
power output. The apparent power is calculated with the current
and voltage rms values obtained in the rms blocks of the ADE7518.
Apparent Power Offset Calibration
Each rms measurement includes an offset compensation register to
calibrate and eliminate the dc component in the rms value (see the
Current Channel RMS Calculation section and the Voltage
Channel RMS Calculation section). The voltage and current
channels rms values are then multiplied together in the appar-
ent power signal processing. Because no additional offsets are
created in the multiplication of the rms values, there is no
specific offset compensation in the apparent power signal
processing. The offset compensation of the apparent power
measurement is done by calibrating each individual rms
measurement.

APPARENT ENERGY CALCULATION
The apparent energy is given as the integer of the apparent power.
=dttPowerApparentEnergyApparent )( (31)
The ADE7518 achieves the integration of the apparent power
signal by continuously accumulating the apparent power signal
in an internal 48-bit register. The apparent energy register
(VAHR[23:0]) represents the upper 24 bits of this internal
register. This discrete time accumulation or summation is
equivalent to integration in continuous time. Equation 32
expresses the relationship.
×=

where:
n is the discrete time sample number.
T is the sample period.
The discrete time sample period (T) for the accumulation
register in the ADE7518 is 1.22 µs (5/MCLK).
Figure 63 shows this discrete time integration or accumulation.
The apparent power signal is continuously added to the internal
register. This addition is a signed addition even if the apparent
energy theoretically remains positive.
The 49 bits of the internal register are divided by VADIV. If the
value in the VADIV register is 0, the internal apparent energy
register is divided by 1. VADIV is an 8-bit unsigned register.
The upper 24 bits are then written in the 24-bit apparent energy
register (VAHR[23:0]). The RVAHR register (24 bits long) is
provided to read the apparent energy. This register is reset to 0
after a read operation.
Note that the apparent energy register is unsigned. By setting
the VAEHF and VAEOF bits in the Interrupt Enable 2 SFR
(MIRQENM, 0xDA), the ADE7518 can be configured to issue
an ADE interrupt to the 8052 core when the apparent energy
register is half-full or when an overflow occurs. The half-full
interrupt for the unsigned apparent energy register is based on
24 bits as opposed to 23 bits for the signed active energy register.
Integration Times Under Steady Load: Apparent Energy
As mentioned in the Apparent Energy Calculation section, the
discrete time sample period (T) for the accumulation register
is 1.22 µs (5/MCLK). With full-scale sinusoidal signals on the
analog inputs and the VAGAIN register set to 0x000, the average
word value from the apparent power stage is 0x1A36E2 (see the
Apparent Power Calculation section). The maximum value that
can be stored in the apparent energy register before it overflows
is 224 or 0xFF,FFFF. The average word value is added to the internal
register, which can store 248 or 0xFFFF,FFFF,FFFF before it
overflows. Therefore, the integration time under these conditions
with VADIV = 0 is calculated as follows:
Time =

Apparent Energy Pulse Output
All ADE7518 circuitry has a pulse output whose frequency is
proportional to apparent power (see the Energy-to-Frequency
Conversion section). This pulse frequency output uses the
calibrated signal after VAGAIN. This output can also be used
to output a pulse whose frequency is proportional to Irms.
The pulse output is active low and should preferably be connected
to an LED, as shown in Figure 66.
Line Apparent Energy Accumulation
The ADE7518 is designed with a special apparent energy
accumulation mode that simplifies the calibration process.
By using the on-chip zero-crossing detection, the ADE7518
accumulates the apparent power signal in the LVAHR register
for an integral number of half cycles, as shown in Figure 64. Line
apparent energy accumulation mode is always active.
The number of half-line cycles is specified in the LINCYC regis-
ter, which is an unsigned 16-bit register. The ADE7518 can
accumulate apparent power for up to 65,535 combined half
cycles. Because the apparent power is integrated on the same
integral number of line cycles as the line active register and
reactive energy register, these values can easily be compared.
The energies are calculated more accurately because of this
precise timing control, and provide all the information needed
for reactive power and power factor calculation.
At the end of an energy calibration cycle, the CYCEND flag
in the Interrupt Status 3 SFR (MIRQSTH, 0xDE) is set. If the
CYCEND enable bit in the Interrupt Enable 3 SFR (MIRQENH,
0xDB) is enabled, the 8052 core has a pending ADE interrupt.
As for LWATTHR, when a new half-line cycle is written
in the LINCYC register, the LVAHR register is reset and a new
accumulation starts at the next zero crossing. The number of
half-line cycles is then counted until LINCYC is reached.
This implementation provides a valid measurement at the first
CYCEND interrupt after writing to the LINCYC register. The
line apparent energy accumulation uses the same signal path as
the apparent energy accumulation. The LSB size of these two
registers is equivalent.
Apparent Power No Load Detection
The ADE7518 includes a no load threshold feature on the
apparent power that eliminates any creep effects in the meter.
The ADE7518 accomplishes this by not accumulating energy if
the multiplier output is below the no load threshold. When the
apparent power is below the no load threshold, the VANOLOAD
flag in the Interrupt Status 1 SFR (MIRQSTL, 0xDC) is set.
If the VANOLOAD bit is set in the Interrupt Enable 1 SFR
(MIRQENL, 0xD9), the 8052 core has a pending ADE interrupt.
The ADE interrupt stays active until the APNOLOAD status bit
is cleared (see the Energy Measurement Interrupts section).
The no load threshold level is selectable by setting the
VANOLOAD bits in the NLMODE register (0x0E). Setting
these bits to 0b00 disables the no load detection, and setting
them to 0b01, 0b10, or 0b11 sets the no load detection threshold
to 0.030%, 0.015%, and 0.0075% of the full-scale output fre-
quency of the multiplier, respectively.
This no load threshold can also be applied to the Irms pulse
output when selected. In this case, the level of no load threshold
is the same as for the apparent energy.
AMPERE-HOUR ACCUMULATION
In a tampering situation where no voltage is available to the
energy meter, the ADE7518 is capable of accumulating the
ampere-hour instead of apparent power into VAHR, RVAHR, and
LVAHR. When Bit 3 (VARMSCFCON) of the MODE2 register
(0x0C) is set, VAHR, RVAHR, LVAHR, and the input for the
digital-to-frequency converter accumulate Irms instead of
apparent power. All the signal processing and calibration
registers available for apparent power and energy accumulation
remain the same when ampere-hour accumulation is selected.
However, the scaling difference between Irms and apparent
power requires independent values for gain calibration in the
VAG A I N , VA D I V, C F x N U M, and CFxDE N r e g i s t e r s .

ENERGY-TO-FREQUENCY CONVERSION
The ADE7518 also provides two energy-to-frequency conversions
for calibration purposes. After initial calibration at manufacturing,
the manufacturer or end customer often verifies the energy
meter calibration. One convenient way to do this is for the
manufacturer to provide an output frequency that is propor-
tional to the active power, reactive power, apparent power,
or Irms under steady load conditions. This output frequency
can provide a simple, single-wire, optically isolated interface to
external calibration equipment. Figure 65 illustrates the energy-
to-frequency conversion in the ADE7518.

Figure 65. Energy-to-Frequency Conversion
Two digital-to-frequency converters (DFC) are used to generate
the pulsed outputs. When WDIV = 0 or 1, the DFC generates a
pulse each time 1 LSB in the energy register is accumulated. An
output pulse is generated when a CFxNUM/CFxDEN number
of pulses are generated at the DFC output. Under steady load
conditions, the output frequency is proportional to the active
power, reactive power, apparent power, or Irms, depending on
the CFxSEL bits in the MODE2 register (0x0C).
Both pulse outputs can be enabled or disabled by clearing or
setting Bit DISCF1 and Bit DISCF2 in the MODE1 register
(0x0B), respectively.
Both pulse outputs set separate flags in the Interrupt Status 2 SFR
(MIRQSTM, 0xDD), CF1 and CF2. If the CF1 and CF2 enable
bits in the Interrupt Enable 2 SFR (MIRQENM, 0xDA) are set,
the 8052 core has a pending ADE interrupt. The ADE interrupt
stays active until the CF1 or CF2 status bits are cleared (see the
Energy Measurement Interrupts section).
Pulse Output Configuration
The two pulse output circuits have separate configuration bits
in the MODE2 register (0x0C). Setting the CFxSEL bits to
0b00, 0b01, or 0b1x configures the DFC to create a pulse output
proportional to active power, to reactive power, or to apparent
power or Irms, respectively.
The selection between Irms and apparent power is done by the
VARMSCFCON bit in the MODE2 register (0x0C). With this
selection, CF2 cannot be proportional to apparent power if CF1
is proportional to Irms, and CF1 cannot be proportional to apparent
power if CF2 is proportional to Irms.
Pulse Output Characteristic
The pulse output for both DFCs stays low for 90 ms if the pulse
period is longer than 180 ms (5.56 Hz). If the pulse period is
shorter than 180 ms, the duty cycle of the pulse output is 50%.
The pulse output is active low and should preferably be connected
to an LED, as shown in Figure 66.

Figure 66. CF Pulse Output
The maximum output frequency with ac input signals at
full scale and CFxNUM = 0x00 and CFxDEN = 0x00 is
approximately 21.1 kHz.
The ADE7518 incorporates two registers per DFC, CFxNUM[15:0]
and CFxDEN[15:0], to set the CFx frequency. These are unsigned
16-bit registers that can be used to adjust the CFx frequency to
a wide range of values. These frequency scaling registers are
16-bit registers that can scale the output frequency by 1/216 to 1
with a step of 1/216.
If 0 is written to any of these registers, 1 is applied to the regis-
ter. The ratio CFxNUM/CFxDEN should be less than 1 to
ensure proper operation. If the ratio of the CFxNUM/CFxDEN
registers is greater than 1, the register values are adjusted to a
ratio of 1. For example, if the output frequency is 1.562 kHz and
the content of CFxDEN is 0 (0x000), the output frequency can
be set to 6.1 Hz by writing 0xFF to the CFxDEN register.

ENERGY REGISTER SCALING
The ADE7518 provides measurements of active, reactive, and
apparent energies that use separate paths and filtering for calcula-
tion. The difference in data paths may result in small differences
in LSB weight between active, reactive, and apparent energy
registers. These measurements are internally compensated so that
the scaling is nearly one to one. The relationship between these
registers is shown in Table 44.
Table 44. Energy Registers Scaling
Line Frequency = 50 Hz Line Frequency = 60 Hz Integrator
VAR = 0.9952 × WATT VAR = 0.9949 × WATT Off
VA = 0.9978 × WATT VA = 1.0015 × WATT Off
VAR = 0.9997 × WATT VAR = 0.9999 × WATT On
VA = 0.9977 × WATT VA = 1.0015 × WATT On
ENERGY MEASUREMENT INTERRUPTS
The energy measurement part of the ADE7518 has its own
interrupt vector for the 8052 core, Vector Address 0x004B (see
the Interrupt Vectors section). The bits set in the Interrupt
Enable 1 SFR (MIRQENL, 0xD9), Interrupt Enable 2 SFR
(MIRQENM, 0xDA), and Interrupt Enable 3 SFR (MIRQENH,
0xDB) enable the energy measurement interrupts that are
allowed to interrupt the 8052 core. If an event is not enabled,
it cannot create a system interrupt.
The ADE interrupt stays active until the status bit that has created
the interrupt is cleared. The status bit is cleared when a zero is
written to this register bit.

8052 MCU CORE ARCHITECTURE
The ADE7518 has an 8052 MCU core and uses the 8051 instruc-
tion set. Some of the standard 8052 peripherals, such as the
UART, have been enhanced. This section describes the standard
8052 core and its enhancements used in the ADE7518.
The special function register (SFR) space is mapped into the
upper 128 bytes of internal data memory space and is accessed
by direct addressing only. It provides an interface between the
CPU and all on-chip peripherals. A block diagram showing the
programming model of the ADE7518 via the SFR area is shown
in Figure 67.
All registers except the program counter (PC), the instruction
register (IR), and the four general-purpose register banks
reside in the SFR area. The SFR registers include power
control, configuration, and data registers that provide an
interface between the CPU and all on-chip peripherals.

BASIC 8052 REGISTERS
Program Counter (PC)
The program counter holds the 2-byte address of the next instruc-
tion to be fetched. The PC is initialized with 0x00 at reset and is
incremented after each instruction is performed. Note that the
amount added to the PC depends on the number of bytes in the
instruction, so the increment can range from one byte to three
bytes. The program counter is not directly accessible to the user
but can be directly modified by CALL and JMP instructions that
change which part of the program is active.
Instruction Register (IR)
The instruction register holds the operations code of the
instruction being executed. The operations code is the binary
code that results from assembling an instruction. This register is
not directly accessible to the user.
Register Banks
There are four banks that each contains eight byte-wide registers
for a total of 32 bytes of registers. These registers are convenient
for temporary storage of mathematical operands. An instruction
involving the accumulator and a register can be executed in one
clock cycle, as opposed to two clock cycles, to perform an
instruction involving the accumulator and a literal or a byte of
general-purpose RAM. The register banks are located in the first
32 bytes of RAM.
The active register bank is selected by the RS0 and RS1 bits in
the Program Status Word SFR (PSW, 0xD0).
Accumulator
The accumulator is a working register, storing the results of
many arithmetic or logical operations. The accumulator is used
in more than half of the 8052 instructions, where it is usually
referred to as “A.” The program status register (PSW) constantly
monitors the number of bits that are set in the accumulator to
determine if it has even or odd parity. The accumulator is stored
in the SFR space (see Table 45).
B Register
The B register is used by the multiply and divide instructions,
MUL AB and DIV AB, to hold one of the operands. Because
the B register is not used for many instructions, it can be used
as a scratch pad register, such as those in the register banks.
The B register is stored in the SFR space (see Table 45).
Program Status Word (PSW)
The PSW register reflects the status of arithmetic and logical
operations through carry, auxiliary carry, and overflow flags.
The parity flag reflects the parity of the accumulator contents,
which can be helpful for communication protocols. The PSW
bits are described in Table 46. The Program Status Word SFR
(PSW, 0xD0) is bit addressable.
Data Pointer (DPTR)
The data pointer is made up of two 8-bit registers: DPH (high
byte) and DPL (low byte). These provide memory addresses for
internal code and data access. The DPTR can be manipulated as
a 16-bit register (DPTR = DPH, DPL) or as two independent
8-bit registers (DPH, DPL). See Table 48 and Table 49.
The ADE7518 supports dual data pointers. See the Dual Data
Pointers section. Note that the Dual Data Pointers section is the
only section in the data sheet where the main and shadow data
pointers are distinguished. Whenever the data pointer (DPTR) is
mentioned elsewhere in the data sheet, active DPTR is implied.
Stack Pointer (SP)
The stack pointer keeps track of the current address at the top
of the stack. To push a byte of data onto the stack, the stack
pointer is incremented, and the data is moved to the new top of
the stack. To pop a byte of data off the stack, the top byte of data
is moved into the awaiting address, and the stack pointer is
decremented. The stack is a last in, first out (LIFO) method of
data storage because the most recent addition to the stack is the
first to come off it.
The stack is utilized to store the program address when CALL
and RET instructions are executed so that the program can
return to this address when returning from the function call.
The stack is also manipulated when vectoring for interrupts to
keep track of the prior state of the PC.
The stack resides in the internal extended RAM, and the SP
register holds the address of the stack in the extended RAM
(XRAM). The advantage of this solution is that the stack is
segregated to the internal XRAM. The use of the general-purpose
RAM can be limited to data storage, and the use of the extended
internal RAM can be limited to the stack pointer. This separation
limits the chance of data RAM corruption when the stack pointer
overflows in data RAM.
Data can still be stored in XRAM by using the MOVX command.

XRAM space, use the following code:

STANDARD 8052 SFRS
The standard 8052 special function registers include the ACC,
B, PSW, DPTR, and SP SFRs described in the Basic 8052 Registers
section. The standard 8052 SFRs also define the timers, the
serial port interface, the interrupts, the I/O ports, and the
power-down modes.
Timer SFRs
The 8052 contains three 16-bit timers: the identical Timer0 and
Timer1, as well as a Timer2. These timers can also function as
event counters. Timer2 has a capture feature where the value of
the timer can be captured in two 8-bit registers upon the asser-
tion of an external input signal (see Table 91 and the Timers
section).
Serial Port SFRs
The full-duplex serial port peripheral requires two registers:
one for setting up the baud rate and other communication
parameters, and another for the transmit/receive buffer. The
ADE7518 also has enhanced serial port functionality with a
dedicated timer for baud rate generation with a fractional
divisor and additional error detection. See Table 120 and the
UART Serial Interface section.
Interrupt SFRs
There is a two-tiered interrupt system standard in the 8052 core.
The priority level for each interrupt source is individually selecta-
ble as high or low. The ADE7518 enhances this interrupt system
by creating, in essence, a third interrupt tier for the highest
priority, the power supply management (PSM) interrupt (see
the Interrupt System section).
I/O Port SFRs
The 8052 core supports four I/O ports, Port 0 through Port 3,
where Port 0 and Port 2 are typically used to access external
code and data spaces. The ADE7518, unlike standard 8052
products, provides internal nonvolatile flash memory so that an
external code space is unnecessary. The on-chip LCD driver
requires many pins, some of which are dedicated for LCD
functionality, and others that can be configured as LCD or
general-purpose inputs/outputs. Due to the limited number of
I/O pins, the ADE7518 does not allow access to external code
and data spaces.
The ADE7518 provides 20 pins that can be used for general-
purpose I/O. These pins are mapped to Port 0, Port 1, and Port 2.
They are accessed through three bit-addressable 8052 SFRs, P0,
P1, and P2. Another enhanced feature of the ADE7518 is that
the weak pull-ups that are standard on 8052 Port 1, Port 2, and
Port 3 can be disabled to make open-drain outputs, as is standard
on Port 0. The weak pull-ups can be enabled on a pin-by-pin
basis (see the I/O Ports section).
Program Control Register (PCON, 0x87)
The 8052 core defines two power-down modes: power-down
and idle. The ADE7518 enhances the power control capability
of the traditional 8052 MCU with additional power management
functions. The Power Control SFR (POWCON, 0xC5) is used
to define power control-specific functionality for the ADE7518.
The Program Control SFR (PCON, 0x87) is not bit addressable
(see the Power Management section).
The ADE7518 has many other peripherals not standard to the
8052 core, including
ADE energy measurement DSP
RTC

Battery switchover/power management
SPI/I2C communication

MEMORY OVERVIEW
The ADE7518 contains the following memory blocks:
16 kB of on-chip Flash/EE program and data memory
256 bytes of general-purpose RAM
256 bytes of internal extended RAM (XRAM)
The 256 bytes of general-purpose RAM share the upper 128 bytes
of its address space with special function registers. All of the
memory spaces are shown in Figure 69. The addressing mode
specifies which memory space to access.

Figure 70. General-Purpose RAM and SFR Memory Address Overlap
Both direct and indirect addressing can be used to access general-
purpose RAM from 0x00 through 0x7F. However, only indirect
addressing can be used to access general-purpose RAM from
0x80 through 0xFF because this address space shares the same
space with the special function registers (SFRs).
The 8052 core also has the means to access individual bits of
certain addresses in the general-purpose RAM and special
function memory spaces. The individual bits of general-purpose
RAM Address 0x20 to RAM Address 0x2F can be accessed
through Bit Address 0x00 through Bit Address 0x7F. The
benefit of bit addressing is that the individual bits can be
accessed quickly without the need for bit masking, which takes
more code memory and execution time. The bit addresses for
general-purpose RAM Address 0x20 through RAM Address
0x2F can be seen in Figure 71.

Figure 71. Bit Addressable Area of General-Purpose RAM
Bit addressing can be used for instructions that involve Boolean
variable manipulation and program branching (see the Instruction
Set section).
Special Function Registers
Special function registers are registers that affect the function of
the 8052 core or its peripherals. These registers are located in
RAM in Address 0x80 through Address 0xFF. They are only
accessible through direct addressing, as shown in Figure 70.
The individual bits of some SFRs can be accessed for use in
Boolean and program branching instructions. These SFRs are
labeled as bit-addressable and the bit addresses are given in the
SFR Mapping section.
Extended Internal RAM (XRAM)
The ADE7518 provides 256 bytes of extended on-chip RAM,
which is located in Address 0x0000 through Address 0x00FF in
the extended RAM space. No external RAM is supported. To
select the extended RAM memory space, the extended indirect
addressing modes are used. The internal XRAM is enabled in
the Configuration SFR (CFG, 0xAF) by writing 01 to CFG[1:0].

Code Memory
Code and data memory are stored in the 16 kB flash memory
space. No external code memory is supported. To access code
memory, code indirect addressing is used.
ADDRESSING MODES
The 8052 core provides several addressing modes. The address-
ing mode determines how the core interprets the memory location
or data value specified in assembly language code. There are six
addressing modes, as shown in Table 53.
Table 53. 8052 Addressing Modes

Immediate Addressing
In immediate addressing, the expression entered after the
number sign (#) is evaluated by the assembler and stored in the
specified memory address. This number is referred to as a literal
because it refers only to a value and not to a memory location.
Instructions using this addressing mode are slower than those
between two registers because the literal must be stored and
fetched from memory. The expression can be entered as a
symbolic variable or an arithmetic expression; the value is
computed by the assembler.
ADE7518
Rev. 0 | Page 68 of 128
Direct Addressing
With direct addressing, the value at the source address is moved
to the destination address. Direct addressing provides the fastest
execution time of all the addressing modes when an instruction
is performed between registers. Note that indirect or direct
addressing modes can be used to access general-purpose RAM
Address 0x00 through RAM Address 0x7F. An instruction with
direct addressing that uses an address between 0x80 and 0xFF is
referring to a special function memory location.
Indirect Addressing
With indirect addressing, the value pointed to by the register
is moved to the destination address. For example, to move the
contents of internal RAM Address 0x82 to the accumulator,
use the following instructions:
MOV R0,#82h
MOV A,@R0
These two instructions require a total of four clock cycles and
three bytes of storage in the program memory.
Indirect addressing allows addresses to be computed, which is
useful for indexing into data arrays stored in RAM.
Note that an instruction that refers to Address 0x00 through
Address 0x7F is referring to internal RAM, and indirect or
direct addressing modes can be used. An instruction with
indirect addressing that uses an address between 0x80 and
0xFF is referring to internal RAM, not to an SFR.
Extended Direct Addressing
The DPTR register (see Table 50) is used to access internal
extended RAM in extended indirect addressing mode. The
ADE7518 has 256 bytes of XRAM, accessed through MOVX
instructions. External memory spaces are not supported on
this device.
In extended direct addressing mode, the DPTR register points
to the address of the byte of extended RAM. The following code
moves the contents of extended RAM Address 0x100 to the
accumulator:
MOV DPTR,#100h
MOVX A,@DPTR
These two instructions require a total of seven clock cycles and
four bytes of storage in the program memory.
Extended Indirect Addressing
The internal extended RAM is accessed through a pointer to the
address in indirect addressing mode. The ADE7518 has 256 bytes
of internal extended RAM, accessed through MOVX instructions.
External memory is not supported on the devices.
In extended indirect addressing mode, a register holds the address
of the byte of extended RAM. The following code moves the
contents of extended RAM Address 0x80 to the accumulator:
MOV R0,#80h
MOVX A,@R0
These two instructions require six clock cycles and three bytes
of storage.
Note that there are 256 bytes of extended RAM; therefore, both
extended direct and extended indirect addressing can cover the
whole address range. There is a storage and speed advantage to
using extended indirect addressing because the additional byte
of addressing available through the DPTR register that is not
needed is not stored.
From the three examples demonstrating the access of internal
RAM from 0x80 through 0xFF, and the access of extended
internal RAM from 0x00 through 0xFF, it can be seen that it is
most efficient to use the entire internal RAM accessible through
indirect access before moving to extended RAM.
Code Indirect Addressing
The internal code memory can be accessed indirectly. This can
be useful for implementing lookup tables and other arrays of
constants that are stored in flash. For example, to move the data
stored in flash memory at Address 0x8002 into the accumulator,
use the following code:
MOV DPTR,#8002h
CLR A
MOVX A,@A+DPTR
The accumulator can be used as a variable index into the array
of flash memory located at DPTR.

READ-MODIFY-WRITE INSTRUCTIONS
Some 8052 instructions read the latch and others read the pin.
The state of the pin is read for instructions that input a port bit.
Instructions that read the latch rather than the pin are the ones
that read a value, possibly change it, and rewrite it to the latch.
Because these instructions involve modifying the port, it is
assumed that the pin being modified is an output, so the output
state of the pin is read from the latch. This prevents a possible
misinterpretation of the voltage level of a pin. For example, if a
port pin is used to drive the base of a transistor, a 1 is written to
the bit to turn on the transistor. If the CPU reads the same port
bit at the pin rather than the latch, it reads the base voltage of
the transistor and interprets it as Logic 0. Reading the latch
rather than the pin returns the correct value of 1.
The instructions that read the latch rather than the pin are
called read-modify-write instructions and are listed in Table 55.
When the destination operand is a port or a port bit, these
instructions read the latch rather than the pin.

ORL ORL P1, A Logic OR.

SETB PX.Y1 SETB P0.0 Set Bit Y of Port X.
1 These instructions read the port byte (all eight bits), modify the addressed
bit, and write the new byte back to the latch.
INSTRUCTIONS THAT AFFECT FLAGS
Many instructions explicitly modify the carry bit, such as the
MOV C bit and CLR C instructions. Other instructions that
affect status flags are listed in this section.
ADD A, Source
This instruction adds the source to the accumulator. No status
flags are referenced by the instruction.
Affected Status Flags
C Set if there is a carry out of Bit 7. Cleared otherwise.
Used to indicate an overflow if the operands are
unsigned.
OV Set if there is a carry out of Bit 6 or a carry out of
Bit 7, but not if both are set. Used to indicate an
overflow for signed addition. This flag is set if two
positive operands yield a negative result or if two
negative operands yield a positive result.
AC Set if there is a carry out of Bit 3. Cleared otherwise.
ADDC A, Source
This instruction adds the source and the carry bit to the accu-
mulator. The carry status flag is referenced by the instruction.
Affected Status Flags
C Set if there is a carry out of Bit 7. Cleared otherwise.
Used to indicate an overflow if the operands are
unsigned.
OV Set if there is a carry out of Bit 6 or a carry out of Bit 7,
but not if both are set. Used to indicate an overflow
for signed addition. This flag is set if two positive
operands yield a negative result or if two negative
operands yield a positive result.
AC Set if there is a carry out of Bit 3. Cleared otherwise.
ADE7518
Rev. 0 | Page 72 of 128
SUBB A, Source
This instruction subtracts the source byte and the carry
(borrow) flag from the accumulator. It references the carry
(borrow) status flag.
Affected Status Flags
C Set if there is a borrow needed for Bit 7. Cleared
otherwise. Used to indicate an overflow if the
operands are unsigned.
OV Set if there is a borrow needed for Bit 6 or Bit 7, but
not for both. Used to indicate an overflow for signed
subtraction. This flag is set if a negative number
subtracted from a positive yields a negative result or
if a positive number subtracted from a negative
number yields a positive result.
AC Set if a borrow is needed for Bit 3. Cleared otherwise.
MUL AB
This instruction multiplies the accumulator by the B register.
This operation is unsigned. The lower byte of the 16-bit product
is stored in the accumulator and the higher byte is left in the B
register. No status flags are referenced by the instruction.
Affected Status Flags
C Cleared.
OV Set if the result is greater than 255. Cleared otherwise.
DIV AB
This instruction divides the accumulator by the B register. This
operation is unsigned. The integer part of the quotient is stored
in the accumulator and the remainder goes into the B register.
No status flags are referenced by the instruction.
Affected Status Flags
C Cleared.
OV Cleared unless the B register is equal to 0, in which
case the results of the division are undefined and the
OV flag is set.
DA A
This instruction adjusts the accumulator to hold two 4-bit digits
after the addition of two binary coded decimals (BCDs) with
the ADD or ADDC instructions. If the AC bit is set or if the value
of Bit 0 to Bit 3 exceeds nine, 0x06 is added to the accumulator
to correct the lower four bits. If the carry bit is set when the
instruction begins, or if 0x06 is added to the accumulator in the
first step, 0x60 is added to the accumulator to correct the higher
four bits.
The carry and AC status flags are referenced by this instruction.
Affected Status Flag
C Set if the result is greater than 0x99. Cleared otherwise.
RRC A
This instruction rotates the accumulator to the right through
the carry flag. The old LSB of the accumulator becomes the new
carry flag, and the old carry flag is loaded into the new MSB of
the accumulator.
The carry status flag is referenced by this instruction.
Affected Status Flag
C Equal to the state of ACC.0 before execution of the
instruction.
RLC A
This instruction rotates the accumulator to the left through the
carry flag. The old MSB of the accumulator becomes the new
carry flag, and the old carry flag is loaded into the new LSB of
the accumulator.
The carry status flag is referenced by this instruction.
Affected Status Flag
C Equal to the state of ACC.7 before execution of the
instruction.
CJNE Destination, Source, Relative Jump
This instruction compares the source value to the destination
value and branches to the location set by the relative jump if
they are not equal. If the values are equal, program execution
continues with the instruction after the CJNE instruction.
No status flags are referenced by this instruction.
Affected Status Flag
C Set if the source value is greater than the destination
value. Cleared otherwise.

DUAL DATA POINTERS
The ADE7518 incorporates two data pointers. The second data
pointer is a shadow data pointer and is selected via the Data Pointer
Control SFR (DPCON, 0xA7). DPCON features automatic hard-
ware postincrement and postdecrement, as well as an automatic
data pointer toggle.
Note that this is the only section of the data sheet where the
main and shadow data pointers are distinguished. Whenever the
data pointer (DPTR) is mentioned elsewhere in the data sheet,
active DPTR is implied.
In addition, only the MOVC/MOVX @DPTR instructions
automatically postincrement and postdecrement the DPTR.
Other MOVC/MOVX instructions, such as MOVC PC
or MOVC @Ri, do not cause the DPTR to automatically
postincrement and postdecrement.
To illustrate the operation of DPCON, the following code copies
256 bytes of code memory at Address 0xD000 into XRAM,
starting from Address 0x0000:
MOV DPTR,#0 ;Main DPTR = 0
MOV DPCON,#55H ;Select shadow DPTR
;DPTR1 increment mode
;DPTR0 increment mode
;DPTR auto toggling ON
MOV DPTR,#0D000H ;DPTR = D000H

INTERRUPT SYSTEM
The unique power management architecture of the ADE7518
includes an operating mode (PSM2) where the 8052 MCU core
is shut down. Events can be configured to wake the 8052 MCU
core from the PSM2 operating mode. A distinction is drawn
here between events that can trigger the wake-up of the 8052
MCU core and events that can trigger an interrupt when the
MCU core is active. Events that can wake the core are referred
to as wake-up events, whereas events that can interrupt the
program flow when the MCU is active are called interrupts.
See the 3.3 V Peripherals and Wake-Up Events section to learn
more about events that can wake the 8052 core from PSM2.
The ADE7518 provides 12 interrupt sources with three priority
levels. The power management interrupt is at the highest priority
level. The other two priority levels are configurable through the
Interrupt Priority SFR (IP, 0xB8) and the Interrupt Enable and
Priority 2 SFR (IEIP2, 0xA9).
STANDARD 8052 INTERRUPT ARCHITECTURE
The 8052 standard interrupt architecture includes two tiers of
interrupts, where some interrupts are assigned a high priority
and others are assigned a low priority.
PRIORITY 1
PRIORITY 0
HIGH
LOW
07327-073
Figure 73. Standard 8052 Interrupt Priority Levels
A Priority 1 interrupt can interrupt the service routine of a
Priority 0 interrupt, and if two interrupts of different priorities
occur at the same time, the Priority 1 interrupt is serviced first.
An interrupt cannot be interrupted by another interrupt of the
same priority level. If two interrupts of the same priority level
occur simultaneously, a polling sequence is observed (see the
Interrupt Priority section).
INTERRUPT ARCHITECTURE
The ADE7518 possesses advanced power supply managment
features. To ensure a fast response to time-critical power supply
issues, such as a loss of line power, the power supply managment
interrupt should be able to interrupt any interrupt service routine.
To enable the user to have full use of the standard 8052 interrupt
priority levels, an additional priority level is added for the power
supply management (PSM) interrupt. The PSM interrupt is the
only interrupt at this highest interrupt priority level.

flags associated with them.

TIMECON.2 ALARM RTC Alarm Flag.
WDT (Watchdog Timer) WDCON.2 WDS Watchdog Timeout Flag.
1 There is no specific flag for ISPI/I2CI; however, all flags for SPI2CSTAT need to be read to assess the reason for the interrupt.
A functional block diagram of the interrupt system is shown in
Figure 75. Note that the PSM interrupt is the only interrupt in
the highest priority level.
If an external wake-up event occurs to wake the ADE7518 from
PSM2, a pending external interrupt is generated. When the EX0
or EX1 bit in the Interrupt Enable SFR (IE, 0xA8) is set to enable
external interrupts, the program counter is loaded with the IE0
or IE1 interrupt vector. The IE0 and IE1 interrupt flags in the
TCON register are not affected by events that occur when the
8052 MCU core is shut down during PSM2. See the Power
Supply Management (PSM) Interrupt section.
The RTC and I2C/SPI interrupts are latched such that pending
interrupts cannot be cleared without entering their respective
interrupt service routines. Clearing the RTC midnight flags and
alarm flags does not clear a pending RTC interrupt. Similarly,
clearing the I2C/SPI status bits in the SPI Interrupt Status SFR
(SPISTAT, 0xEA) does not cancel a pending I2C/SPI interrupt.
These interrupts remain pending until the RTC or I2C/SPI
interrupt vectors are enabled. Their respective interrupt service
routines are entered shortly thereafter.
Figure 75 shows how the interrupts are cleared when the interrupt
service routines are entered. Some interrupts with multiple
interrupt sources are not automatically cleared; specifically, the
PSM, ADE, UART, and Timer 2 interrupt vectors. Note that the
INT0 and INT1 interrupts are only cleared if the external interrupt
is configured to be triggered by a falling edge by setting IT0 in
the Timer/Counter 0 and Timer/Counter 1 Control SFR (TCON,
0x88). If INT0 or INT1 is configured to interrupt on a low level,
the interrupt service routine is re-entered until the respective
pin goes high.

INTERRUPT VECTORS
When an interrupt occurs, the program counter is pushed onto
the stack, and the corresponding interrupt vector address is loaded
into the program counter. When the interrupt service routine
is complete, the program counter is popped off the stack by a
RETI instruction. This allows program execution to resume
from where it was interrupted. The interrupt vector addresses
are shown in Table 64.

INTERRUPT LATENCY
The 8052 architecture requires that at least one instruction
executes between interrupts. To ensure this, the 8052 MCU
core hardware prevents the program counter from jumping to
an ISR immediately after completing an RETI instruction or an
access of the IP and IE registers.
The shortest interrupt latency is 3.25 instruction cycles, 800 ns
with a clock of 4.096 MHz. The longest interrupt latency for a
high priority interrupt results when a pending interrupt is
generated during a low priority interrupt RETI, followed by a
multiply instruction. This results in a maximum interrupt
latency of 16.25 instruction cycles, 4 µs with a clock of 4.096 MHz.
CONTEXT SAVING
When the 8052 vectors to an interrupt, only the program counter
is saved on the stack. Therefore, the interrupt service routine
must be written to ensure that registers used in the main
program are restored to their preinterrupt state. Common
registers that can be modified in the ISR are the accumulator
register and the PSW register. Any general-purpose registers
that are used as scratch pads in the ISR should also be restored
before exiting the interrupt. The following example 8052 code
shows how to restore some commonly used registers:
GeneralISR:
; save the current accumulator value
PUSH ACC
; save the current status and register bank
selection
PUSH PSW
; service interrupt
; restore t he status and regi ster ban k
selection
POP PSW
; restore the accumulator

WATCHDOG TIMER
The watchdog timer generates a device reset or interrupt within
a reasonable amount of time if the ADE7518 enters an erroneous
state, possibly due to a programming error or electrical noise. The
watchdog is enabled by default with a timeout of two seconds and
creates a system reset if not cleared within two seconds. The
watchdog function can be disabled by clearing the watchdog
enable bit (WDE) in the Watchdog Timer SFR (WDCON, 0xC0).
The watchdog circuit generates a system reset or interrupt (WDS)
if the user program fails to set the WDE bit within a predeter-
mined amount of time (set by PRE[3:0]). The watchdog timer is
clocked from the 32.768 kHz external crystal connected between
the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins.
The WDCON SFR can be written only by user software if the
double write sequence described in the Writing to the Watchdog
Timer SFR (WDCON, 0xC0) section is initiated on every write
access to the WDCON SFR.
To prevent any code from inadvertently disabling the watchdog,
a watchdog protection can be activated. This watchdog protection
locks in the watchdog enable and event settings so that they cannot
be changed by user code. The protection is activated by clearing
a watchdog protection bit in the flash memory. The watchdog
protection bit is the most significant bit at Address 0x3FFA of
the flash memory. When this bit is cleared, the WDIR bit is forced
to 0, and the WDE bit is forced to 1. Note that the sequence for
configuring the flash protection bits must be followed to modify
the watchdog protection bit at Address 0x3FFA (see the Protecting
the Flash Memory section).

when the watchdog timeout period has expired. When set, the watchdog generates an
interrupt when the watchdog timeout period has expired.
2 0xC2 WDS 0 Watchdog Status Bit. This bit is set to indicate that a watchdog timeout has occurred. It is
cleared by writing a 0 or by an external hardware reset. A watchdog reset does not clear
WDS; therefore, it can be used to distinguish between a watchdog reset and a hardware
reset from the RESET pin.
1 0xC1 WDE 1 Watchdog Enable Bit. When set, this bit enables the watchdog and clears its counter. The
watchdog counter is subsequently cleared again whenever WDE is set. If the watchdog is
not cleared within its selected timeout period, it generates a system reset or watchdog
interrupt, depending on the WDIR bit.

Table 66. Watchdog and Flash Protection Byte in Flash (Flash Address = 0x3FFA)
Bit Mnemonic Default Description
7 WDPROT_PROTKY7 1 This bit holds the protection for the watchdog timer and the seventh bit of the flash protection key.
When this bit is cleared, the watchdog enable (WDE) and interrupt response bits (WDIR) cannot
be changed by user code. The watchdog configuration is then fixed to WDIR = 0 and WDE = 1.
The watchdog timeout in PRE[3:0] can still be modified by user code.
The value of this bit is also used to set the flash protection key. If this bit is cleared to protect the
watchdog, then the default value for the flash protection key is 0x7F instead of 0xFF (see the
Protecting the Flash Memory section for more information on how to clear this bit).
6 to 0 PROTKY[6:0] 0xFF These bits hold the flash protection key. The content of this flash address is compared to the
Flash Protection Key SFR (PROTKY, 0xBB) when the protection is being set or changed. If the two
values match, the new protection is written to Flash Address 0x3FFF to Flash Address 0x3FFB.
See the Protecting the Flash Memory section for more information on how to configure these bits.
Writing to the Watchdog Timer SFR (WDCON, 0xC0)
Writing data to the WDCON SFR involves a double instruction
sequence. The WDWR bit must be set and the following
instruction must be a write instruction to the WDCON SFR.
Disable Watch dog
CLR EA
SETB WDWR
CLR WDE
SETB EA
This sequence is necessary to protect the WDCON SFR from
code execution upsets that may unintentionally modify this
SFR. Interrupts should be disabled during this operation due to
the consecutive instruction cycles.
Watchdog Timer Interrupt
If the watchdog timer is not cleared within the watchdog timeout
period, a system reset occurs unless the watchdog timer interrupt
is enabled. The watchdog timer interrupt enable bit (WDIR) is
located in the Watchdog Timer SFR (WDCON, 0xC0). Enabling
the WDIR bit allows the program to examine the stack or other
variables that may have led the program to execute inappropriate
code. The watchdog timer interrupt also allows the watchdog to
be used as a long interval timer.
Note that WDIR is automatically configured as a high priority
interrupt. This interrupt cannot be disabled by the EA bit in the
IE register (see Table 58). Even if all of the other interrupts are
disabled, the watchdog is kept active to watch over the program.

LCD DRIVER
Using shared pins, the LCD module is capable of directly driving
an LCD panel of 17 × 4 segments without compromising any
ADE7518 functions. It is capable of driving LCDs with 2×, 3×,
and 4× multiplexing. The LCD waveform voltages are generated
through an external resistor ladder.
Each ADE7518 has an embedded LCD control circuit, driver, and
power supply circuit. The LCD module is functional in all operat-
ing modes (see the Operating Modes section).
LCD REGISTERS
There are six LCD control registers that configure the driver for
the specific type of LCD in the end system and set up the user
display preferences. The LCD Configuration SFR (LCDCON,
0x95), the LCD Configuration X SFR (LCDCONX, 0x9C), and
the LCD Configuration Y SFR (LCDCONY, 0xB1) contain general
LCD driver configuration information, including the LCD enable
and reset, as well as the method of LCD voltage generation and
multiplex level. The LCD Clock SFR (LCDCLK, 0x96) configures
timing settings for LCD frame rate and blink rate. LCD pins are
configured for LCD functionality in the LCD Segment Enable
SFR (LCDSEGE, 0x97) and the LCD Segment Enable 2 SFR
(LCDSEGE2, 0xED).

LCD SETUP
The LCD Configuration SFR (LCDCON, 0x95) configures the
LCD module to drive the type of LCD in the user end system.
The BIAS and LMUX[1:0] bits in this SFR should be set according
to the LCD specifications.
The COM2/FP28 and COM3/FP27 pins default to LCD segment
lines. Selecting the 3× multiplex level in the LCD Configuration
SFR (LCDCON, 0x95) by setting LMUX[1:0] = 10 changes the
FP28 pin functionality to COM2. The 4× multiplex level selection,
LMUX[1:0] = 11, changes the FP28 pin functionality to COM2
and the FP27 pin functionality to COM3.
LCD segments FP0 to FP15 and FP26 are enabled by default.
Additional pins are selected for LCD functionality in the LCD
Segment Enable SFR (LCDSEGE, 0x97) and the LCD Segment
Enable 2 SFR (LCDSEGE2, 0xED), where there are individual
enable bits for the FP16 to FP25 segment pins. The LCD pins do
not have to be enabled sequentially. For example, if the alternate
function of FP23, the Timer 2 input, is required, any of the
other shared pins, FP16 to FP25, can be enabled instead.
The Display Element Control section contains details about
setting up the LCD data memory to turn individual LCD
segments on and off. Setting the LCDRST bit in the LCD
Configuration SFR (LCDCON, 0x95) resets the LCD data
memory to its default (0). A power-on reset also clears the
LCD data memory.
LCD TIMING AND WAVEFORMS
An LCD segment acts like a capacitor that is charged and
discharged at a certain rate. This rate, the refresh rate, determines
the visual characteristics of the LCD. A slow refresh rate results
in the LCD blinking on and off between refreshes. A fast refresh
rate presents a screen that appears to be continuously lit. In
addition, a faster refresh rate consumes more power.
The frame rate, or refresh rate, for the LCD module is derived
from the LCD clock, fLCDCLK. The LCD clock is selected as 2048 Hz
or 128 Hz by the CLKSEL bit in the LCD Configuration SFR
(LCDCON, 0x95). The minimum refresh rate needed for the
LCD to appear solid (without blinking) is independent of the
multiplex level.
The LCD waveform frequency, fLCD, is the frequency at which
the LCD switches the active common line. Thus, the LCD
waveform frequency depends heavily on the multiplex level.
The frame rate and LCD waveform frequency are set by the
fLCDCLK, the multiplex level, and the FD[3:0] frame rate selection
bits in the LCD Clock SFR (LCDCLK, 0x96).
The LCD module provides 16 different frame rates for fLCDCLK
= 2048 Hz, ranging from 8 Hz to 128 Hz for an LCD with 4×
multiplexing. Fewer options are available with fLCDCLK = 128 Hz,
ranging from 8 Hz to 32 Hz for a 4× multiplexed LCD. The
128 Hz clock is beneficial for battery operation because it
consumes less power than the 2048 Hz clock. The frame rate is
set by the FD[3:0] bits in the LCD Clock SFR (LCDCLK, 0x96);
see Table 72 and Table 73.
The LCD waveform is inverted at twice the LCD waveform
frequency, fLCD. This way, each frame has an average dc offset
of zero. ADC offset degrades the lifetime and performance of
the LCD.

Rev. 0 | Page 85 of 128
BLINK MODE
Blink mode is enabled by setting the BLINKEN bit in the LCD
Configuration SFR (LCDCON, 0x95). This mode is used to
alternate between the LCD on state and LCD off state so that
the LCD screen appears to blink. There are two blinking modes:
a software controlled blink mode and an automatic blink mode.
Software Controlled Blink Mode
The LCD blink rate can be controlled by user code with the
BLKMOD[1:0] bits in the LCD Clock SFR (LCDCLK, 0x96) by
toggling the bits to turn the display on and off at a rate deter-
mined by the MCU code.
Automatic Blink Mode
There are five blink rates available. These blink rates are
selected by the BLKMOD[1:0] and BLKFREQ[1:0] bits in the
LCD Clock SFR (LCDCLK, 0x96); see Table 71.
DISPLAY ELEMENT CONTROL
A bank of 15 bytes of data memory located in the LCD module
controls the on or off state of each LCD segment. The LCD data
memory is stored in Address 0 through Address 14 in the LCD
module. Each byte configures the on and off states of two segment
lines. The LSBs store the state of the even numbered segment
lines, and the MSBs store the state of the odd numbered segment
lines. For example, LCD Memory Address 0 refers to segment
lines one and zero (see Table 78). Note that the LCD data memory
is maintained in PSM2 operating mode.
The LCD data memory is accessed indirectly through the LCD
Pointer SFR (LCDPTR, 0xAC) and LCD Data SFR (LCDDAT,
0xAE). Moving a value to the LCDPTR SFR selects the LCD
data byte to be accessed and initiates a read or write operation
(see Table 75).
Writing to LCD Data Registers
To update the LCD data memory, first set the LSB of the LCD
Configuration Y SFR (LCDCONY, 0xB1) to freeze the data
being displayed on the LCD while updating it. Then, move the
data to the LCD Data SFR (LCDDAT, 0xAE) prior to accessing
the LCD Pointer SFR (LCDPTR, 0xAC). When the MSB of the
LCDPTR SFR is set, the content of the LCDDAT SFR is trans-
ferred to the internal LCD data memory designated by the address
in the LCDPTR SFR. Clear the LSB of the LCD Configuration Y
SFR (LCDCONY, 0xB1) when all of the data memory has been
updated to allow the use of the new LCD setup for display.
To update the segments attached to the FP10 and FP11 pins, use
the following sample 8052 code:
ORL LCDCONY,#01h ;start updating the data
MOV LCDDAT,#FFh
MOV LCDPTR,#80h OR 05h
ANL LCDCONY,#0FEh ;update finished
Reading LCD Data Registers
When the MSB of the LCD Pointer SFR (LCDPTR, 0xAC) is
cleared, the content of the LCD data memory address designated by
LCDPTR is transferred to the LCD Data SFR (LCDDAT, 0xAE).
Sample 8052 code to read the contents of LCD Data Memory
Address 0x07, which holds the on and off state of the segments
attached to FP14 and FP15, is as follows:

MOV R1, LCDDAT

To enable the external resistor ladder, set the EXTRES bit in
the LCD Configuration X SFR (LCDCONX, 0x9C). When
EXTRES = 1, the LCD waveform voltages are supplied by the
external resistor ladder. Because the LCD voltages are not
generated on chip, the LCD bias compensation implemented to
maintain contrast over temperature and supply is not possible.
The external circuitry needed for the resistor ladder option is
shown in Figure 77. The resistors required should be in the
range of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ and based on the current required
by the LCD being used.

Example LCD Setup
An example of how to set up the LCD peripheral for a specific
LCD is described in this section with the following parameters:
Type of LCD: 4× multiplexed with 1/3 bias, 96 segments
Refresh rate: 64 Hz
A 96-segment LCD with 4× multiplexing requires 96/4 = 24
segment lines. Sixteen pins, FP0 to FP15, are automatically
dedicated for use as LCD segments. Eight more pins must be
chosen for the LCD function. Because the LCD has 4× multi-
plexing, all four common lines are used. As a result, COM2/FP28
and COM3/FP27 cannot be used as segment lines. Based on the
alternate functions of the pins used for FP16 through FP25,
FP16 to FP23 are chosen for the eight remaining segment lines.
These pins are enabled for LCD functionality in the LCD
Segment Enable SFR (LCDSEGE, 0x97) and LCD Segment
Enable 2 SFR (LCDSEGE2, 0xED).
The LCD is set up with the following 8052 code:

FLASH MEMORY
OVERVIEW
Flash memory is a type of nonvolatile memory that is in-circuit
programmable. The default state of a byte of flash memory is 0xFF
(erased). When a byte of flash memory is programmed, the
required bits change from 1 to 0. The flash memory must be
erased to turn the 0s back to 1s. However, a byte of flash memory
cannot be erased individually. The entire segment, or page, of
flash memory that contains the byte must be erased.
The ADE7518 provides 16 kB of flash program/information
memory. This memory is segmented into 32 pages of 512 bytes
each. Therefore, to reprogram one byte of flash memory, the
other 511 bytes in that page must be erased. The flash memory
can be erased by page or all at once in a mass erase. There is a
command to verify that a flash write operation has completed
successfully. The ADE7518 flash memory controller also offers
configurable flash memory protection.
The 16 kB of flash memory are provided on-chip to facilitate
code execution without any external discrete ROM device
requirements. The program memory can be programmed in-
circuit, using the serial download or emulation options provided or
using conventional third party memory programmers.
Flash/EE Memory Reliability
The flash memory arrays on the ADE7518 are fully qualified for
two key Flash/EE memory characteristics: Flash/EE memory
cycling endurance and Flash/EE memory data retention.
Endurance quantifies the ability of the Flash/EE memory to be
cycled through many program, read, and erase cycles. In real
terms, a single endurance cycle is composed of the following four
independent, sequential events:
1. Initial page erase sequence.
2. Read/verify sequence.
3. Byte program sequence.
4. Second read/verify sequence.
In reliability qualification, every byte in both the program and
data Flash/EE memory is cycled from 0x00 to 0xFF until a first
fail is recorded, signifying the endurance limit of the on-chip
Flash/EE memory.
As indicated in the Specifications section, the ADE7518 flash
memory endurance qualification has been carried out in
accordance with JEDEC Standard 22 Method A117 over the
industrial temperature range of −40°C, +25°C, and +85°C. The
results allow the specification of a minimum endurance figure
over supply and temperature of 100,000 cycles, with a minimum
endurance figure of 20,000 cycles of operation at 2C.
Retention is the ability of the flash memory to retain its pro-
grammed data over time. Again, the parts have been qualified
in accordance with the formal JEDEC Standard 22 Method A117
at a specific junction temperature (TJ = 55°C). As part of this
qualification procedure, the flash memory is cycled to its specified
endurance limit before data retention is characterized. This
means that the flash memory is guaranteed to retain its data for
its full specified retention lifetime every time the flash memory is
reprogrammed. It should also be noted that retention lifetime,
based on an activation energy of 0.6 eV, derates with TJ, as shown
in Figure 78.

FLASH MEMORY ORGANIZATION
The 16 kB of flash memory provided by the ADE7518 are seg-
mented into 32 pages of 512 bytes each. It is up to the user to
decide which flash memory to allocate for data memory. It is
recommended that each page be dedicated solely to program
memory or to data memory. Doing so prevents the program
counter from being loaded with data memory instead of an
operations code from the program memory. It also prevents
program memory used to update a byte of data memory from
being erased.

Figure 79. Flash Memory Organization
The flash memory can be protected from read or write/erase
(W/E) access. The protection is implemented in part of the last
page of the flash memory, Page 31. Four of the bytes from this
page are used to set up write/erase protection for each page.
Another byte is used for configuring read protection of the flash
memory. The read protection is selected for groups of four pages.
Finally, one byte is used to store the key required for modifying
the protection scheme. The last page of flash memory must be
write/erase protected for any flash protection to be active.
The implication of write/erase protecting the last page is that
the content of the 506 bytes in this page that are available to the
user must not change.
Thus, if code protection is enabled, it is recommended to use
this last page for program memory only (if the firmware does
not need to be updated in the field). If the firmware must be
protected and can be updated at a future date, the last page
should be used only for constants utilized by the program code.
Therefore, Page 0 through Page 30 are for general program and
data memory use. It is recommended that Page 31 be used for
constants or code that do not need to be updated. Note that the
last six bytes of Page 31 are reserved for protecting the flash
memory.
USING THE FLASH MEMORY
The 16 kB of flash memory are configured as 32 pages, each of
512 bytes. As with the other ADE7518 peripherals, the interface
to this memory space is via a group of registers mapped in the
SFR space (see Table 80).
A data register, EDATA, holds the byte of data to be accessed. The
byte of flash memory is addressed via the EADRH and EADRL
registers. Finally, ECON is an 8-bit control register that can be
written to with one of seven flash memory access commands to
trigger various read, write, erase, and verify functions.

ECON—Flash/EE Memory Control SFR
Programming flash memory is done through the Flash Control
SFR (ECON, 0xB9). This SFR allows the user to read, write, erase,
or verify the 16 kB of flash memory. As a method of security, a
key must be written to the FLSHKY register to initiate any user
access to the flash memory. Upon completion of the flash memory
operation, the FLSHKY register is reset so that it must be written
to prior to another flash memory operation. Requiring the key
to be set before an access to the flash memory decreases the
likelihood of user code or data being overwritten by a program
inappropriately modified during its execution.
The program counter (PC) is held on the instruction where the
ECON register is written to until the flash memory controller is
done performing the requested operation. Then, the PC incre-
ments to continue with the next instruction.
Any interrupt requests that occur while the flash controller is
performing an operation are not handled until the flash operation
is complete. All peripherals, such as timers and counters, continue
to operate as configured throughout the flash memory access.

Bit Mnemonic Value Description
7 to 0 ECON 1 Write Byte. The value in EDATA is written to the flash memory at the page address given by EADRH and
EADRL. Note that the byte being addressed must be pre-erased.
2 Erase Page. A 512-byte page of flash memory address is erased. The page is selected by the address in
EADRH/EADRL. Any address in the page can be written to EADRH/EADRL to select it for erasure.
3 Erase All. All 16 kB of the flash memory are erased. Note that this command is used during serial and
parallel download modes but should not be executed by user code.
4 Read Byte. The byte in the flash memory addressed by EADRH/EADRL is read into EDATA.
5 Erase Page and Write Byte. The page that holds the byte addressed by EADRH/EADRL is erased. Data in
EDATA is then written to the byte of flash memory addressed by EADRH/EADRL.

If the protection key in the flash is 0xFF, the PROTKY SFR value is not used for comparison. This SFR is
also used to write the protection key in the flash. This is done by writing the desired value in PROTKY
and by writing 0x08 in the ECON SFR. This operation can only be done once.

PROTECTING THE FLASH MEMORY
Two forms of protection are offered for this flash memory: read
protection and write/erase protection. The read protection ensures
that any pages that are read protected are not able to be read by
the end user. The write protection ensures that the flash memory
cannot be erased or written over. This protects the end system
from tampering and can prevent the code from being overwritten
in the event of an unexpected disruption of the normal execution
of the program.
Write/erase protection is individually selectable for all 32 pages.
Read protection is selected in groups of four pages (see Figure 79
for the groupings). The protection bits are stored in the last flash
memory locations, Address 0x3FFA through Address 0x3FFF (see
Figure 81); four bytes are reserved for write/erase protection,
one byte is for read protection, and another byte sets the protection
security key. The user must enable read and write/erase protection
for the last page for the entire protection scheme to work.
Note that the read protection does not prevent MOVC
commands from being executed within the code.
There is an additional layer of protection offered by a protection
security key. The user can set up this security key so that the
protection scheme cannot be changed without this key. Once
the protection key has been configured, it cannot be modified.
Enabling Flash Protection by Code
The protection bytes in the flash memory can be programmed
using the flash controller command and programming ECON to
0x08. In this case, the EADRH, EADRL, PROTB1, and PROTB0
bytes are used to store the data to be written to the 32 bits of write
protection. Note that the EADRH and EADRL registers are not
used as data pointers here but to store write protection data.

Figure 81. Flash Protection in Page 31
The sequence for writing the protection bits is as follows:
1. Set up the EADRH, EADRL, PROTB1, and PROTB0
registers with the write/erase protection bits. When erased,
the protection bits default to 1 (like any other bit of flash
memory). The default protection setting is for no protection.
To enable protection, write a 0 to the bits corresponding to
the pages that should be protected.
2. Set up the PROTR register with the read protection bits.
Note that every read protection bit protects four pages.
To enable the read protection bit, write a 0 to the bits that
should be read protected.
3. To enable the protection key, write to the PROTKY register.
If enabled, the protection key is required to modify the
protection scheme. The protection key, Flash Memory
Address 0x3FFA, defaults to 0xFF; if the PROTKY register
is not written to, it remains 0xFF. If the protection key is
written to, the PROTKY register must be written with this
value every time the protection functionality is accessed.
Note that once the protection key is configured, it cannot
be modified. Also, note that the most significant bit of
Address 0x3FFA is used to enable a lock mechanism for
the watchdog settings (see the Watchdog Timer section
for more information).
4. Run the protection command by writing 0x08 to the
ECON register.
5. Reset the chip to activate the new protection.
To enable read and write/erase protection for the last page only, use
the following 8052 code. Writing the flash protection command
to the ECON register initiates programming of the protection
bits in the flash.

pages only

Enabling Flash Protection by Emulator Commands
Another way to set the flash protection bytes is to use some
reserved emulator commands available only in download mode.
These commands write directly to the SFRs and can be used to
duplicate the operation mentioned in the Enabling Flash Protection
by Code section. When these flash bytes are written, the part
can exit emulation mode by a reset and the protections are
effective. This method can be used in production and imple-
mented after downloading the program. The commands used
for this operation are an extension of the commands listed in
Application Note uC004, Understanding the Serial Download
Protocol, available at www.analog.com.
Command with ASCII Code I or 0x49 writes the data into R0.
Command with ASCII Code F or 0x46 writes R0 into the
SFR address defined in the data of this command.
By omitting the protocol defined in Application Note uC004,
Understanding the Serial Download Protocol, the sequence to
load protections is similar to the sequence presented in the
Enabling Flash Protection by Code section, except that two
emulator commands are necessary to replace one assembly
command. For example, to write the protection value in
EADRH, the two following commands need to be executed:
Command I with data = value of Protection Byte 0x3FFF.
Command F with data = 0xC7.
Following this protocol, the protection can be written to the
flash using the same sequence as mentioned in the Enabling
Flash Protection by Code section. When the part is reset, the
protection is effective.
Notes on Flash Protection
The flash protection scheme is disabled by default so that none
of the pages of the flash are protected from reading or writing/
erasing.
The last page must be read and write/erase protected for the
protection scheme to work.
To activate the protection settings, the ADE7518 must be reset
after configuring the protection.
After configuring protection on the last page and resetting the
part, protections that have been enabled can only be removed by
mass erasing the flash memory. The protection bits are read and
erase protected by enabling read and write/erase protection on the
last page, but the protection bits are never truly write protected.
Protection bits can be modified from 1 to 0, even after the last
page has been protected. In this way, more protection can be
added but none can be removed.
The protection scheme is intended to protect the end system. Pro-
tection should be disabled while developing and emulating code.

Note that the core microcontroller operation is idled until the
requested flash memory operation is complete. In practice, this
means that even though the flash operation is typically initiated
with a two-machine-cycle MOV instruction to write to the
Flash Control SFR (ECON, 0xB9), the next instruction is not
executed until the Flash/EE operation is complete. This means
that the core cannot respond to interrupt requests until the
Flash/EE operation is complete, although the core peripheral
functions, such as counters and timers, continue to count as
configured throughout this period.
IN-CIRCUIT PROGRAMMING
Serial Downloading
The ADE7518 facilitates code download via the standard UART
serial port. The parts enter serial download mode after a reset or
a power cycle if the SDEN pin is pulled low through an external
1 kΩ resistor. When in serial download mode, the hidden embed-
ded download kernel executes. This allows the user to download
code to the full 16 kB of flash memory while the device is in-circuit
in its target application hardware.
Protection configured in the last page of the ADE7518 affects
whether flash memory can be accessed in serial download mode.
Read protected pages cannot be read. Write/erase protected pages
cannot be written or erased.

TIMERS
The ADE7518 has three 16-bit timer/counters: Timer/Counter 0,
Timer/Counter 1, and Timer/Counter 2. The timer/counter
hardware is included on chip to relieve the processor core of
overhead inherent in implementing timer/counter functionality in
software. Each timer/counter consists of two 8-bit registers: THx
and TLx (x = 0, 1, or 2). All three timers can be configured to
operate as timers or as event counters.
When functioning as a timer, the TLx register is incremented
every machine cycle. Thus, users can think of it as counting
machine cycles. Because a machine cycle on a single cycle core
consists of one core clock period, the maximum count rate is
the core clock frequency.
When functioning as a counter, the TLx register is incremented
by a 1-to-0 transition at its corresponding external input pin:
T0, T1, or T2. When the samples show a high in one cycle and a
low in the next cycle, the count is incremented. Because it takes
two machine cycles (two core clock periods) to recognize a 1-to-0
transition, the maximum count rate is half the core clock frequency.
There are no restrictions on the duty cycle of the external input
signal, but to ensure that a given level is sampled at least once
before it changes, it must be held for a minimum of one full
machine cycle. User configuration and control of all timer
operating modes is achieved via the SFRs listed in Table 91.

TIMER 0 AND TIMER 1
Timer/Counter 0 and Timer/Counter 1 Data Registers
Each timer consists of two 8-bit registers. They are Timer 0
High Byte SFR (TH0, 0x8C), Timer 0 Low Byte SFR (TL0, 0x8A),
Timer 1 High Byte SFR (TH1, 0x8D), and Timer 1 Low Byte SFR
(TL1, 0x8B). These can be used as independent registers or
combined into a single 16-bit register, depending on the timer
mode configuration (see Table 95 to Table 98).
Timer/Counter 0 and Timer/Counter 1 Operating Modes
This section describes the operating modes for Timer/Counter 0
and Timer/Counter 1. Unless otherwise noted, these modes of
operation are the same for both Timer 0 and Timer 1.
Mode 0 (13-Bit Timer/Counter)
Mode 0 configures an 8-bit timer/counter. Figure 82 shows
Mode 0 operation. Note that the divide-by-12 prescaler is not
present on the single cycle core.

Figure 82. Timer/Counter 0, Mode 0
In this mode, the timer register is configured as a 13-bit register.
As the count rolls over from all 1s to all 0s, it sets the timer
overflow flag, TF0. TF0 can then be used to request an interrupt.
The counted input is enabled to the timer when TR0 = 1 and either
Gate0 = 0 or INT0 = 1. Setting Gate0 = 1 allows the timer to be
controlled by external input INT0 to facilitate pulse width
measurements. TR0 is a control bit in the Timer/Counter 0 and
Timer/Counter 1 Control SFR (TCON, 0x88); the Gate0/Gate1
bits are in the Timer/Counter 0 and Timer/Counter 1 Mode SFR
(TMOD, 0x89). The 13-bit register consists of all eight bits of
Timer 0 High Byte SFR (TH0, 0x8C) and the lower five bits of
Timer 0 Low Byte SFR (TL0, 0x8A). The upper three bits of the
TL0 SFR are indeterminate and should be ignored. Setting the
run flag (TR0) does not clear the registers.
Mode 1 (16-Bit Timer/Counter)
Mode 1 is the same as Mode 0 except that the Mode 1 timer
register runs with all 16 bits. Mode 1 is shown in Figure 83.

Mode 2 (8-Bit Timer/Counter with Autoreload)
Mode 2 configures the timer register as an 8-bit counter (TL0)
with automatic reload, as shown in Figure 84. Overflow from TL0
not only sets TF0 but also reloads TL0 with the contents of TH0,
which is preset by software. The reload leaves TH0 unchanged.

Mode 3 (Two 8-Bit Timer/Counters)
Mode 3 has different effects on Timer 0 and Timer 1. Timer 1 in
Mode 3 simply holds its count. The effect is the same as setting
TR1 = 0. Timer 0 in Mode 3 establishes TL0 and TH0 as two
separate counters. This configuration is shown in Figure 85.
TL0 uses the Timer 0 control bits, C/T0, Gate0 (see Table 92),
TR0, TF0 (see Table 93), and INT0. TH0 is locked into a timer
function (counting machine cycles) and takes over the use of
TR1 and TF1 from Timer 1. Therefore, TH0 controls the Timer 1
interrupt. Mode 3 is provided for applications requiring an
extra 8-bit timer or counter.
When Timer 0 is in Mode 3, Timer 1 can be turned on and off
by switching it out of and into its own Mode 3, or it can be used
by the serial interface as a baud rate generator. In fact, Timer 1
can be used in any application not requiring an interrupt from
Timer 1 itself.

TIMER 2
Timer/Counter 2 Data Registers
Timer/Counter 2 also has two pairs of 8-bit data registers asso-
ciated with it: Timer 2 High Byte SFR (TH2, 0xCD), Timer 2
Low Byte SFR (TL2, 0xCC), Timer 2 Reload/Capture High Byte
SFR (RCAP2H, 0xCB), and Timer 2 Reload/Capture Low Byte
SFR (RCAP2L, 0xCA). These are used as both timer data registers
and as timer capture/reload registers (see Table 99 to Table 102).
Timer/Counter 2 Operating Modes
The following sections describe the operating modes for
Timer/Counter 2. The operating modes are selected by bits in
the Timer/Counter 2 Control SFR (T2CON, 0xC8), as shown in
Table 94 and Table 103.
Table 103. T2CON Operating Modes
RCLK or TCLK CAP2 TR2 Mode
0 0 1 16-bit autoreload
0 1 1 16-bit capture
1 X 1 Baud rate
X X 0 Off
16-Bit Autoreload Mode
Autoreload mode has two options that are selected by Bit EXEN2
in Timer/Counter 2 Control SFR (T2CON, 0xC8). If EXEN2 = 0
when Timer 2 rolls over, it not only sets TF2 but also causes the
Timer 2 registers to be reloaded with the 16-bit value in both the
Timer 2 Reload/Capture High Byte SFR (RCAP2H, 0xCB) and
Timer 2 Reload/Capture Low Byte SFR (RCAP2L, 0xCA)
registers, which are preset by software. If EXEN2 = 1, Timer 2
performs the same events as when EXEN2 = 0 but adds a 1-to-0
transition at the external input T2EX, which triggers the 16-bit
reload and sets EXF2. Autoreload mode is shown in Figure 86.
16-Bit Capture Mode
Capture mode has two options that are selected by Bit EXEN2
in Timer/Counter 2 Control SFR (T2CON, 0xC8). If EXEN2 = 0,
Timer 2 is a 16-bit timer or counter that, upon overflowing, sets
Bit TF2, the Timer 2 overflow bit, which can be used to generate
an interrupt. If EXEN2 = 1, Timer 2 performs the same events
as when EXEN2 = 0 but adds a l-to-0 transition on external
input T2EX, which causes the current value in the Timer 2
registers, TL2 and TH2, to be captured into the RCAP2L and
RCAP2H registers, respectively. In addition, the transition at
T2EX causes Bit EXF2 in T2CON to be set, and EXF2, like TF2,
can generate an interrupt. Capture mode is shown in Figure 87.
The baud rate generator mode is selected by RCLK = 1 and/or
TCLK = 1.
In either case, if Timer 2 is used to generate the baud rate, the TF2
interrupt flag does not occur. Therefore, Timer 2 interrupts do not
occur and do not have to be disabled. In this mode, the EXF2 flag
can, however, still cause interrupts that can be used as a third
external interrupt. Baud rate generation is described as part of the
UART serial port operation in the UART Serial Interface section.

PLL
The ADE7518 is intended for use with a 32.768 kHz watch crystal.
A PLL locks onto a multiple of this frequency to provide a stable
4.096 MHz clock for the system. The core can operate at this
frequency or at binary submultiples of it to allow power savings
when maximum core performance is not required. The default
core clock is the PLL clock divided by 4, or 1.024 MHz. The ADE
energy measurement clock is derived from the PLL clock and is
maintained at 4.096 MHz/5 MHz, or 819.2 kHz, across all CD
settings.
The PLL is controlled by the CD[2:0] bits in the Power Control
SFR (POWCON, 0xC5). To protect erroneous changes to the
POWCON SRF, a key is required to modify the register. First,
the Key SFR (KYREG, 0xC1) is written with the key, 0xA7, and
then a new value is written to the POWCON SFR.
If the PLL loses lock, the MCU is reset and the PLL_FLT bit is
set in the Peripheral Configuration SFR (PERIPH, 0xF4). Set
the PLLACK bit in the Start ADC Measurement SFR (ADCGO,
0xD8) to acknowledge the PLL fault, clearing the PLL_FLT bit.

REAL-TIME CLOCK
The ADE7518 has an embedded real-time clock (RTC), as
shown in Figure 88. The external 32.768 kHz crystal is used as
the clock source for the RTC. Calibration is provided to
compensate the nominal crystal frequency and for variations in
the external crystal frequency over temperature. By default, the
RTC is maintained active in all power saving modes. The RTC
counters retain their values through watchdog resets and
external resets. They are only reset during a power-on reset.

READ AND WRITE OPERATIONS
Writing to the RTC Registers
The RTC circuitry runs off a 32.768 kHz clock. The timekeeping
registers, Hundredths of a Second Counter SFR (HTHSEC, 0xA2),
Seconds Counter SFR (SEC, 0xA3), Minutes Counter SFR (MIN,
0xA4), and Hours Counter SFR (HOUR, 0xA5), are updated
with a 32.768 kHz clock. However, the RTC Configuration SFR
(TIMECON, 0xA1) and Alarm Interval SFR (INTVAL, 0xA6)
are updated with a 128 Hz clock. It takes up to two 128 Hz clock
cycles from when the MCU writes to the TIMECON SFR or the
INTVAL SFR until there is a successful update in the RTC.
To protect the RTC timekeeping registers from runaway code,
a key must be written to the Key SFR (KYREG, 0xC1), which is
described in Table 105, to obtain write access to the HTHSEC,
SEC, MIN, and HOUR SFRs. KYREG should be set to 0xEA to
unlock the timekeeping registers and reset to 0 after a timekeeping
register is written to. The RTC registers can be written to using
the following 8052 assembly code:
MOV RTCKey,#0EAh
CALL UpdateRTC
UpdateRTC:
MOV KYREG,RTCKey
MOV SEC,#30
MOV KYREG,RTCKey
MOV MIN,#05
MOV KYREG,RTCKey
MOV HOUR,#04
MOV KYREG,#00h
RET
Reading the RTC Counter SFRs
The RTC cannot be stopped to read the current time because
stopping the RTC introduces an error in its timekeeping.
Therefore, the RTC is read on the fly, and the counter registers
must be checked for overflow. This can be accomplished
through the following 8052 assembly code:
ReadAgain:
MOV R0,HTHSEC ; using Bank 0
MOV R1,SEC
MOV R2,MIN
MOV R3,HOUR
MOV A,HTHSEC
CJNE A, 00h, Re adAgain ; 00h is R0 in
Bank 0
RTC MODES
The RTC can be configured in a 24-hour mode or a 256-hour
mode. A midnight event is generated when the RTC hour
counter rolls over from 23 to 0 or 255 to 0, depending on
whether the TFH bit is set in the RTC Configuration SFR
(TIMECON, 0xA1). The midnight event sets the MIDNIGHT
flag in the TIMECON SFR, and a pending RTC interrupt is
created. The RTC midnight event wakes the 8052 MCU core if
the MCU is asleep in PSM2 when the midnight event occurs.
In the 24-hour mode, the midnight event is generated once a
day at midnight. The 24-hour mode is useful for updating a
software calendar to keep track of the current day. The 256-hour
mode results in power savings during extended operation in
PSM2 because the MCU core wakes up less frequently.
RTC INTERRUPTS
The RTC midnight interrupt and alarm interrupt are enabled by
setting the ETI bit in the Interrupt Enable and Priority 2 SFR
(IEIP2, 0xA9). When a midnight or alarm event occurs, a pending
RTC interrupt is generated. If the RTC interrupt is enabled, the
program vectors to the RTC interrupt address and the pending
interrupt is cleared. If the RTC interrupt is disabled, the RTC
interrupt remains pending until the RTC interrupt is enabled.
The program then vectors to the RTC interrupt address.
The MIDNIGHT flag and ALARM flag are set when the mid-
night event and alarm event occur, respectively. The user should
manage these flags to keep track of which event caused an RTC
interrupt by servicing the event and clearing the appropriate
flag in the RTC interrupt servicing routine.
Note that if the ADE7518 is awakened by an RTC event, either
by the MIDNIGHT event or the ALARM event, the pending
RTC interrupt must be serviced before the device can go back
to sleep again. The ADE7518 keeps waking up until this inter-
rupt has been serviced.
Interval Timer Alarm
The RTC can be used as an interval timer. When the interval timer
is enabled by setting the ITEN bit in the RTC Configuration SFR
(TIMECON, 0xA1), the interval timer clock source selected by
the ITS1 and ITS0 bits is passed through an 8-bit counter. This
counter increments on every interval timer clock pulse until it is
equal to the value in the Alarm Interval SFR (INTVAL, 0xA6).
Then, an alarm event is generated, setting the ALARM flag and
creating a pending RTC interrupt. If the SIT bit in the RTC
Configuration SFR (TIMECON, 0xA1) is cleared, the 8-bit
counter is also cleared and starts counting again. If the SIT bit is
set, the 8-bit counter is held in reset after the alarm occurs.
ADE7518
Rev. 0 | Page 104 of 128
Take care when changing the interval timer time base. The
recommended procedure is as follows:
1. If the Alarm Interval SFR (INTVAL, 0xA6) is going to
be modified, write to this register first. Then, wait for
one 128 Hz clock cycle to synchronize with the RTC,
64,000 cycles at a 4.096 MHz instruction cycle clock.
2. Disable the interval timer by clearing the ITEN bit in the
RTC Configuration SFR (TIMECON, 0xA1). Then, wait
for one 128 Hz clock cycle to synchronize with the RTC,
64,000 cycles at a 4.096 MHz instruction cycle clock.
3. Read the TIMECON SFR to ensure that the ITEN bit is
clear. If it is not, wait for another 128 Hz clock cycle.
4. Set the time base bits (ITS[1:0]) in the TIMECON SFR to
configure the interval. Wait for a 128 Hz clock cycle for this
change to take effect.
The RTC alarm event wakes the 8052 MCU core if the MCU is
in PSM2 when the alarm event occurs.
RTC CALIBRATION
The RTC provides registers to calibrate the nominal external
crystal frequency and its variation over temperature. A frequency
error up to ±248 ppm can be calibrated by the RTC circuitry,
which adds or subtracts pulses from the external crystal signal.
The nominal crystal frequency should be calibrated with the
RTC nominal compensation register so that the clock going into
the RTC is precisely 32.768 kHz at 25°C. The RTC Temperature
Compensation SFR (TEMPCAL, 0xF7) is used to compensate
for the external crystal drift over temperature by adding or
subtracting additional pulses based on temperature.
The LSB of each RTC compensation register represents a
±2 ppm frequency error. The RTC compensation circuitry adds
the RTC Temperature Compensation SFR (TEMPCAL, 0xF7)
and the RTC Nominal Compensation SFR (RTCCOMP, 0xF6)
to determine how much compensation is required. Note that
the sum of these two registers is limited to ±248 ppm.
Calibration Flow
An RTC calibration pulse output is provided on the P0.2/CF1/
RTCCAL pin. Enable the RTC output by setting the RTCCAL
bit in the Interrupt Pins Configuration SFR (INTPR, 0xFF).
The RTC calibration is accurate to within ±2 ppm over a 30.5 sec
window in all operational modes: PSM0, PSM1, and PSM2. Two
output frequencies are offered for the normal RTC mode: 1 Hz
with FSEL[1:0] = 00 and 512 Hz with FSEL[1:0] = 01 in the
Interrupt Pins Configuration SFR (INTPR, 0xFF).
A shorter window of 0.244 sec is offered for fast calibration
during PSM0 or PSM1. Two output frequencies are offered for
this RTC calibration output mode: 500 Hz with FSEL[1:0] = 10
and 16.384 kHz with FSEL[1:0] = 11 in the INTPR SFR. Note
that for the 0.244 sec calibration window, the RTC is clocked
125 times faster than in normal mode, resulting in timekeeping
registers that represent seconds/125, minutes/125, and hours/125
instead of seconds, minutes, and hours. Therefore, this mode
should be used for calibration only.
Table 119. RTC Calibration Options
Option FSEL[1:0]
Calibration
Window (Sec) fRTCCAL (Hz)
Normal Mode 0 00 30.5 1
Normal Mode 1 01 30.5 512
Calibration Mode 0 10 0.244 500
Calibration Mode 1 11 0.244 16,384
When no RTC compensation is applied, that is, when RTC
Nominal Compensation SFR (RTCCOMP, 0xF6) and RTC
Temperature Compensation SFR (TEMPCAL, 0xF7) are equal
to 0, the nominal compensation required to account for the
error in the external crystal can be determined. In this case, it is
not necessary to wait for an entire calibration window to determine
the error in the pulse output. Calculating the error in frequency
between two consecutive pulses on the P0.2/CF1/RTCCAL pin
is sufficient.
The value to write to the RTC Nominal Compensation SFR
(RTCCOMP, 0xF6) is calculated from the % error or seconds per
day error on the frequency output. Each LSB of the RTCCOMP
SFR represents 2 ppm of correction where 1 sec/day error is
equal to 11.57 ppm.

UART SERIAL INTERFACE
The ADE7518 UART can be configured in one of four modes.
Shift register with baud rate fixed at fCORE/12
8-bit UART with variable baud rate
9-bit UART with baud rate fixed at fCORE/64 or fCORE/32
9-bit UART with variable baud rate
Variable baud rates are defined by using an internal timer to
generate any rate between 300 baud/sec and 115,200 baud/sec.
The UART serial interface provided in the ADE7518 is a full-
duplex serial interface. It is also receive-buffered by storing the
first received byte in a receive buffer until the reception of the
second byte is complete. The physical interface to the UART is
provided via the RxD (P1.0) and TxD (P1.1) pins, whereas the
firmware interface is through the SFRs presented in Table 120.
Both the serial port receive and transmit registers are accessed
through the Serial Port Buffer SFR (SBUF, 0x99). Writing to
SBUF loads the transmit register, and reading SBUF accesses a
physically separate receive register.
An enhanced UART mode is offered by using the UART timer
and by providing enhanced frame error, break error, and overwrite
error detection. This mode is enabled by setting the EXTEN bit
in the Configuration SFR (CFG, 0xAF) (see the UART Additional
Features section). The Enhanced Serial Baud Rate Control SFR
(SBAUDT, 0x9E) and UART Timer Fractional Divider SFR
(SBAUDF, 0x9D) are used to configure the UART timer and to
indicate the enhanced UART errors.

UART OPERATION MODES
Mode 0 (Shift Register with Baud Rate Fixed at fCORE/12)
Mode 0 is selected when the SM0 and SM1 bits in the Serial
Communications Control Register Bit Description SFR (SCON,
0x98) are cleared. In this shift register mode, serial data enters
and exits through RxD. TxD outputs the shift clock. The baud
rate is fixed at fCORE/12. Eight data bits are transmitted or
received.
Transmission is initiated by any instruction that writes to the
Serial Port Buffer SFR (SBUF, 0x99). The data is shifted out of
the RxD line. The eight bits are transmitted with the least
significant bit (LSB) first.
Reception is initiated when the receive enable bit (REN) is 1
and the receive interrupt bit (RI) is 0. When RI is cleared, the
data is clocked into the RxD line, and the clock pulses are
output from the TxD line, as shown in Figure 89.

07327-089
Figure 89. 8-Bit Shift Register Mode
Mode 1 (8-Bit UART, Variable Baud Rate)
Mode 1 is selected by clearing SM0 and setting SM1. Each data
byte (LSB first) is preceded by a start bit (0) and followed by a
stop bit (1). Therefore, each frame consists of 10 bits transmitted
on TxD or received on RxD.
The baud rate is set by a timer overflow rate. Timer 1 or Timer 2
can be used to generate baud rates, or both timers can be used
simultaneously where one generates the transmit rate and the
other generates the receive rate. There is also a dedicated timer
for baud rate generation, the UART timer, which has a fractional
divisor to precisely generate any baud rate (see the UART Timer
Generated Baud Rates section).
Transmission is initiated by a write to the Serial Port Buffer SFR
(SBUF, 0x99). Next, a stop bit (1) is loaded into the ninth bit
position of the transmit shift register. The data is output bit by
bit until the stop bit appears on TxD and the transmit interrupt
flag (TI) is automatically set as shown in Figure 90.

Figure 90. 8-Bit Variable Baud Rate
Reception is initiated when a 1-to-0 transition is detected on
RxD. Assuming that a valid start bit is detected, character
reception continues. The eight data bits are clocked into the
serial port shift register.
All of the following conditions must be met at the time the final
shift pulse is generated to receive a character:
If the extended UART is disabled (EXTEN = 0 in the CFG
SFR), RI must be 0 to receive a character. This ensures that
the data in the SBUF SFR is not overwritten if the last
received character has not been read.
If frame error checking is enabled by setting SM2, the
received stop bit must be set to receive a character. This
ensures that every character received comes from a valid
frame, with both a start bit and a stop bit.
If any of these conditions are not met, the received frame is
irretrievably lost, and the receive interrupt flag (RI) is not set.
If the received frame has met the previous criteria, the following
events occur:
The eight bits in the receive shift register are latched into
the SBUF SFR.
The ninth bit (stop bit) is clocked into RB8 in the SCON SFR.
The receiver interrupt flag (RI) is set.
Mode 2 (9-Bit UART with Baud Fixed at fCORE/64 or fCORE/32)
Mode 2 is selected by setting SM0 and clearing SM1. In this
mode, the UART operates in 9-bit mode with a fixed baud rate.
The baud rate is fixed at fCORE/64 by default, although setting the
SMOD bit in the Program Control SFR (PCON, 0x87) doubles
the frequency to fCORE/32. Eleven bits are transmitted or received:
a start bit (0), eight data bits, a programmable ninth bit, and a
stop bit (1). The ninth bit is most often used as a parity bit or as
part of a multiprocessor communication protocol, although it
can be used for anything, including a ninth data bit, if required.
To use the ninth data bit as part of a communication protocol for
a multiprocessor network such as RS-485, the ninth bit is set to
indicate that the frame contains the address of the device with
which the master wants to communicate. The devices on the
network are always listening for a packet with the ninth bit set
and are configured such that if the ninth bit is cleared, the frame
is not valid, and a receive interrupt is not generated. If the ninth
bit is set, all devices on the network receive the address and obtain a
receive character interrupt. The devices examine the address and,
if it matches one of the devices preprogrammed addresses, that
device configures itself to listen to all incoming frames, even those
with the ninth bit cleared. Because the master has initiated
communication with that device, all the following packets with
the ninth bit cleared are intended specifically for that addressed
device until another packet with the ninth bit set is received. If
the address does not match, the device continues to listen for
address packets.

To transmit, the eight data bits must be written into the Serial
Port Buffer SFR (SBUF, 0x99). The ninth bit must be written
to TB8 in the Serial Communications Control Register SFR
(SCON, 0x98). When transmission is initiated, the eight data
bits from SBUF are loaded into the transmit shift register (LSB
first). The ninth data bit, held in TB8, is loaded into the ninth
bit position of the transmit shift register. The transmission starts
at the next valid baud rate clock. The transmit interrupt flag (TI)
is set as soon as the transmission completes, when the stop bit
appears on TxD.
All of the following conditions must be met at the time the final
shift pulse is generated to receive a character:
If the extended UART is disabled (EXTEN = 0 in the CFG
SFR), RI must be 0 to receive a character. This ensures that
the data in SBUF is not overwritten if the last received
character has not been read.
If multiprocessor communication is enabled by setting
SM2, the received ninth bit must be set to receive a character.
This ensures that only frames with the ninth bit set, that is,
frames that contain addresses, generate a receive interrupt.
If any of these conditions are not met, the received frame is
irretrievably lost, and the receive interrupt flag (RI) is not set.
Reception for Mode 2 is similar to that of Mode 1. The eight
data bytes are input at RxD (LSB first) and loaded onto the
receive shift register. If the received frame has met the previous
criteria, the following events occur:
The eight bits in the receive shift register are latched into
the SBUF SFR.
The ninth data bit is latched into RB8 in the SCON SFR.
The receiver interrupt flag (RI) is set.
Mode 3 (9-Bit UART with Variable Baud Rate)
Mode 3 is selected by setting both SM0 and SM1. In this mode,
the 8052 UART serial port operates in 9-bit mode with a variable
baud rate. The baud rate is set by a timer overflow rate. Timer 1
or Timer 2 can be used to generate baud rates, or both timers
can be used simultaneously, where one generates the transmit
rate and the other generates the receive rate. There is also a
dedicated timer for baud rate generation, the UART timer,
which has a fractional divisor to precisely generate any baud
rate (see the UART Timer Generated Baud Rates section). The
operation of the 9-bit UART is the same as for Mode 2, but the
baud rate can be varied.
In all four modes, transmission is initiated by any instruction
that uses SBUF as a destination register. Reception is initiated in
Mode 0 when RI = 0 and REN = 1. Reception is initiated in the
other modes by the incoming start bit if REN = 1.

Mode 2 Baud Rate Generation
The baud rate in Mode 2 depends on the value of the PCON[7]
(SMOD) bit in the Program Control SFR (PCON, 0x87). If
SMOD = 0, the baud rate is 1/32 of the core clock. If SMOD = 1,
the baud rate is 1/16 of the core clock.

Mode 1 and Mode 3 Baud Rate Generation
The baud rates in Mode 1 and Mode 3 are determined by the
overflow rate of the timer generating the baud rate, that is,
either Timer 1, Timer 2, or the dedicated baud rate generator,
UART timer, which has an integer and fractional divisor.
Timer 1 Generated Baud Rates
When Timer 1 is used as the baud rate generator, the baud rates
in Mode 1 and Mode 3 are determined by the Timer 1 overflow
rate. The value of SMOD is as follows:
Mode 1 or Mode 3 Baud Rate =

The Timer 1 interrupt should be disabled in this application.
The timer itself can be configured for either timer or counter
operation, in any of its three running modes. In the most typical
application, it is configured for timer operation in autoreload
mode (high nibble of TMOD = 0010 binary). In that case, the
baud rate is given by the following formula:
Mode 1 or Mode 3 Baud Rate = )256(32

Timer 2 Generated Baud Rates
Baud rates can also be generated by using Timer 2. Using Timer 2
is similar to using Timer 1 in that the timer must overflow 16 times
before a bit is transmitted or received. Because Timer 2 has a
16-bit autoreload mode, a wider range of baud rates is possible.
Mode 1 or Mode 3 Baud Rate = 16
1 × Timer 2 Overflow Rate
Therefore, when Timer 2 is used to generate baud rates, the
timer increments every two clock cycles rather than every core
machine cycle as before. It increments six times faster than
Timer 1, and, therefore, baud rates six times faster are possible.
Because Timer 2 has 16-bit autoreload capability, very low baud
rates are still possible. Timer 2 is selected as the baud rate
generator by setting TCLK and/or RCLK in Timer/Counter 2
Control SFR (T2CON, 0xC8). The baud rates for transmit and
receive can be simultaneously different. Setting RCLK and/or
ADE7518

UART Timer Generated Baud Rates
The high integer dividers in a UART block mean that high speed
baud rates are not always possible. In addition, generating baud
rates requires the exclusive use of a timer, rendering it unusable
for other applications when the UART is required. To address
this problem, each ADE7518 has a dedicated baud rate timer
(UART timer) specifically for generating highly accurate baud
rates. The UART timer can be used instead of Timer 1 or Timer 2
for generating very accurate high speed UART baud rates,
including 115,200 bps. This timer also allows a much wider
range of baud rates to be obtained. In fact, every desired bit rate
from 12 bps to 393,216 bps can be generated to within an error
of ±0.8%. The UART timer also frees up the other three timers,
allowing them to be used for different applications. A block
diagram of the UART timer is shown in Figure 91.

Two SFRs, Enhanced Serial Baud Rate Control SFR (SBAUDT,
0x9E) and UART Timer Fractional Divider SFR (SBAUDF,
0x9D), are used to control the UART timer. SBAUDT is the
baud rate control SFR; it sets up the integer divider (DIV) and
the extended divider (SBTH) for the UART timer.
The appropriate value to write to the DIV[2:0] and SBTH[1:0]
bits can be calculated using the following formula, where fCORE is

value must be rounded down to the nearest integer.

UART ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Enhanced Error Checking
The extended UART provides frame error, break error, and
overwrite error detection. Framing errors occur when a stop bit
is not present at the end of the frame. A missing stop bit implies
that the data in the frame may not have been received properly.
Break error detection indicates whether the Rx line has been
low for longer than a 9-bit frame. It indicates that the data just
received, a 0 or null character, is not valid because the master has
disconnected. Overwrite error detection indicates when the
received data has not been read fast enough and, as a result, a
byte of data has been lost.
The 8052 standard UART offers frame-error checking for an 8-bit
UART through the SM2 and RB8 bits. Setting the SM2 bit prevents
frames without a stop bit from being received. The stop bit is
latched into the RB8 bit in the Serial Communications Control
Register SFR (SCON, 0x98). This bit can be examined to
determine if a valid frame was received. The 8052 does not,
however, provide frame error checking for a 9-bit UART. This
enhanced error checking functionality is available through the
frame error bit, FE, in the Enhanced Serial Baud Rate Control
SFR (SBAUDT, 0x9E). The FE bit is set on framing errors for
both 8-bit and 9-bit UARTs.

The 8052 standard UART does not provide break error detection.
However, for an 8-bit UART, a break error can be detected when
the received character is 0, a null character, and when there is a
no stop bit because the RB8 bit is low. Break error detection is
not possible for a 9-bit 8052 UART because the stop bit is not
recorded. The ADE7518 enhanced break error detection is
available through the BE bit in the SBAUDT SFR.
The 8052 standard UART prevents overwrite errors by not
allowing a character to be received when the receive interrupt
flag, RI, is set. However, it does not indicate if a character has
been lost because the RI bit is set when the frame is received.
The enhanced UART overwrite error detection provides this
information. When the enhanced 8052 UART is enabled, a
frame is received regardless of the state of the RI flag. If RI = 1
when a new byte is received, the byte in SCON is overwritten,
and the overwrite error flag is set. The overwrite error flag is
cleared when SBUF is read.
The extended UART is enabled by setting the EXTEN bit in the
Configuration SFR (CFG, 0xAF).
UART TxD Signal Modulation
There is an internal 38 kHz signal that can be ORed with the
UART transmit signal for use in remote control applications
(see the 38 kHz Modulation section).
One of the events that can wake the MCU from sleep mode is
activity on the RxD pin (see the 3.3 V Peripherals and Wake-Up
Events section).
ADE7518
Rev. 0 | Page 112 of 128
SERIAL PERIPHERAL INTERFACE (SPI)
The ADE7518 integrates a complete hardware serial peripheral
interface on-chip. The SPI is full duplex so that eight bits of data
are synchronously transmitted and simultaneously received.
This SPI implementation is double buffered, allowing users to
read the last byte of received data while a new byte is shifted in.
The next byte to be transmitted can be loaded while the current
byte is shifted out.
The SPI port can be configured for master or slave operation. The
physical interface to the SPI is via the MISO (P0.5), MOSI (P0.4),
SCLK (P0.6), and SS (P0.7) pins, whereas the firmware interface
is via the SPI Configuration SFR 1 (SPIMOD1, 0xE8), the SPI
Configuration SFR 2 (SPIMOD2, 0xE9), the SPI Interrupt
Status SFR (SPISTAT, 0xEA), the SPI/I2C Transmit Buffer SFR
(SPI2CTx, 0x9A), and the SPI/I2C Receive Buffer SFR
(SPI2CRx, 0x9B).
Note that the SPI pins are shared with the I2C pins. Therefore, the
user can enable only one interface at a time. The SCPS bit in the
Configuration SFR (CFG, 0xAF) selects which peripheral is active.

SPI PINS
MISO (Master In, Slave Out Data I/O Pin)
The MISO pin is configured as an input line in master mode
and as an output line in slave mode. The MISO line on the
master (data in) should be connected to the MISO line in the
slave device (data out). The data is transferred as byte-wide
(8-bit) serial data, MSB first.
MOSI (Master Out, Slave In Pin)
The MOSI pin is configured as an output line in master mode
and as an input line in slave mode. The MOSI line on the master
(data out) should be connected to the MOSI line in the slave
device (data in). The data is transferred as byte-wide (8-bit)
serial data, MSB first.
SCLK (Serial Clock I/O Pin)
The master serial clock (SCLK) is used to synchronize the data
being transmitted and received through the MOSI and MISO
data lines. The SCLK pin is configured as an output in master
mode and as an input in slave mode.
In master mode, the bit rate, polarity, and phase of the clock are
controlled by the SPI Configuration SFR 1 (SPIMOD1, 0xE8) and
SPI Configuration SFR 2 (SPIMOD2, 0xE9).
In slave mode, the SPI Configuration SFR 2 (SPIMOD2, 0xE9)
must be configured with the phase and polarity of the expected
input clock.
In both master and slave modes, the data is transmitted on one
edge of the SCLK signal and sampled on the other. It is important,
therefore, that the SPICPHA and SPICPOL bits be configured
the same for the master and slave devices.
ADE7518
Rev. 0 | Page 116 of 128
SS (Slave Select Pin)
In SPI slave mode, a transfer is initiated by the assertion of SS
low. The SPI port then transmits and receives 8-bit data until
the data is concluded by the deassertion of SS according to the
SPICON bit setting. In slave mode, SS is always an input.
In SPI master mode, the SS can be used to control data transfer
to a slave device. In automatic slave select control mode, the SS
is asserted low to select the slave device and then raised to deselect
the slave device after the transfer is complete. Automatic slave
select control is enabled by setting the AUTO_SS bit in the SPI
Configuration SFR 1 (SPIMOD1, 0xE8).
In a multimaster system, the SS can be configured as an input so
that the SPI peripheral can operate as a slave in some situations
and as a master in others. In this case, the slave selects for the
slaves that are controlled by this SPI peripheral should be gener-
ated with general I/O pins.
SPI MASTER OPERATING MODES
The double-buffered receive and transmit registers can be used to
maximize the throughput of the SPI peripheral by continuously
streaming out data in master mode. Continuous transmit mode is
designed to use the full capacity of the SPI. In this mode, the
master transmits and receives data until the SPI/I2C Transmit
Buffer SFR (SPI2CTx, 0x9A) is empty at the start of a byte
transfer. Continuous mode is enabled by setting the SPICONT bit
in the SPI Configuration SFR 2 (SPIMOD2, 0xE9). The SPI
peripheral also offers a single byte read/write function.
In master mode, the type of transfer is handled automatically,
depending on the configuration of the SPICONT bit in the SPI
Configuration SFR 2 (SPIMOD2, 0xE9). The following proce-
dures show the sequence of events that should be performed for
each master operating mode. Based on the SS configuration,
some of these events take place automatically.
Procedures for Using SPI as a Master
Single Byte Mode—SPICONT (SPIMOD2[7]) = 0
1. Write to SPI2CTx SFR.
2. SS is asserted low and a write routine is initiated.
3. SPITxIRQ interrupt flag is set when the SPI2CTx register
is empty.
4. SS is deasserted high.
5. Write to SPI2CTx SFR to clear the SPITxIRQ interrupt flag.
Continuous Byte Mode—SPICONT (SPIMOD2[7]) = 1
1. Write to SPI2CTx SFR.
2. SS is asserted low and write routine is initiated.
3. Wait for the SPITxIRQ interrupt flag to write to SPI2CTx
SFR. Transfer continues until the SPI2CTx register and
transmit shift registers are empty.
4. SPITxIRQ interrupt flag is set when the SPI2CTx register
is empty.
5. SS is deasserted high.
6. Write to SPI2CTx SFR to clear the SPITxIRQ interrupt flag.

and continuous mode selections. Note that if the continuous mode
is not used, a short delay is inserted between transfers.

SPI INTERRUPT AND STATUS FLAGS
The SPI interface has several status flags that indicate the status
of the double-buffered receive and transmit registers. Figure 96
shows when the status and interrupt flags are raised. The transmit
interrupt occurs when the transmit shift register is loaded with
the data in the SPI/I2C Transmit Buffer SFR (SPI2CTx, 0x9A).
If the SPI master is in transmit operating mode, and the SPI/I2C
Transmit Buffer SFR (SPI2CTx, 0x9A) register has not been
written with new data by the beginning of the next byte transfer,
the transmit operation stops.
When a new byte of data is received in the SPI/I2C Receive Buffer
SFR (SPI2CRx, 0x9B), the SPI receive interrupt flag is raised.
If the data in the SPI/I2C Receive Buffer SFR (SPI2CRx, 0x9B) is
not read before new data is ready to be loaded into the SPI/I2C
Receive Buffer SFR (SPI2CRx, 0x9B), an overflow condition has
occurred. This overflow condition, indicated by the SPIRxOF
flag, forces the new data to be discarded or overwritten if the
RxOFW bit is set.

I2C-COMPATIBLE INTERFACE
The ADE7518 supports a fully licensed I2C interface. The I2C
interface is implemented as a full hardware master.
SDATA is the data I/O pin, and SCLK is the serial clock. These
two pins are shared with the MOSI and SCLK pins of the on-chip
SPI interface. Therefore, the user can enable only one interface
on these pins at any given time. The SCPS bit in the Configuration
SFR (CFG, 0xAF) selects which peripheral is active.
The two pins used for data transfer, SDATA and SCLK, are
configured in a wire-AND format that allows arbitration in a
multimaster system.
The transfer sequence of an I2C system consists of a master device
initiating a transfer by generating a start condition while the bus
is idle. The master transmits the address of the slave device and
the direction of the data transfer in the initial address transfer.
If the slave acknowledges the start condition, the data transfer is
initiated. This continues until the master issues a stop condition
and the bus becomes idle.
SERIAL CLOCK GENERATION
The I2C master in the system generates the serial clock for a
transfer. The master channel can be configured to operate in
fast mode (256 kHz) or standard mode (32 kHz).
The bit rate is defined in the I2CMOD SFR as follows:
]0:1[2
216 CRI

SLAVE ADDRESSES
The I2C Slave Address SFR (I2CADR, 0xE9) contains the slave
device ID. The LSB of this register contains a read/write request.
A write to this SFR starts the I2C communication.
I2C REGISTERS
The I2C peripheral interface consists of five SFRs.
I2CMOD
SPI2CSTAT
I2CADR
SPI2CTx
SPI2CRx
Because the SPI and I2C serial interfaces share the same pins,
they also share the same SFRs, such as the SPI2CTx and SPI2CRx
SFRs. In addition, the I2CMOD, I2CADR, and SPI2CSTAT SFRs
are shared with the SPIMOD1, SPIMOD2, and SPISTAT SFRs,
respectively.

Figure 99. I2C Write Operation
Figure 98 and Figure 99 depict I2C read and write operations,
respectively. Note that the LSB of the I2CADR register is used to
select whether a read or write operation is performed on the
slave device. During the read operation, the master acknowledges
are generated automatically by the I2C peripheral. The master-
generated NACK (no acknowledge) before the end of a read
operation is also automatically generated after the I2CRCT,
Bits[4:0] have been read from the slave. If the I2CADR register
is updated during a transmission, instead of generating a stop at
the end of the read or write operation, the master generates a
start condition and continues with the next communication.
Reading the SPI/I2C Receive Buffer SFR (SPI2CRx, 0x9B)
Reading the SPI2CRx SFR should be done with a 2-cycle
instruction, such as
Mov a, spi2crx or Mov R0, spi2crx.
A 3-cycle instruction such as
Mov 3dh, spi2crx
does not transfer the right data into RAM Address 0x3D.

I2C RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT FIFOS
The I2C peripheral has a 4-byte receive FIFO and a 4-byte transmit
FIFO. The buffers reduce the overhead associated with using
the I2C peripheral. Figure 100 shows the operation of the I2C
receive and transmit FIFOs.
The Tx FIFO can be loaded with four bytes to be transmitted to
the slave at the beginning of a write operation. When the
transmit FIFO is empty, the I2C transmit interrupt flag is set,
and the PC vectors to the I2C interrupt vector if this interrupt is
enabled. If a new byte is not loaded into the Tx FIFO before it is
needed in the transmit shift register, the communication stops.
An error, such as not receiving an acknowledge, also causes the
communication to terminate. In case of an error during a write
operation, the Tx FIFO is flushed.
The Rx FIFO allows four bytes to be read in from the slave
before the MCU has to read the data. A receive interrupt can
be generated after each byte is received or when the Rx FIFO
is full. If the peripheral is reading from a slave address, the
communication stops once the number of received bytes equals
the number set in I2CRCT, Bits [4:0]. An error, such as not
receiving an acknowledge, also causes the communication to
terminate.

I/O PORTS
PARALLEL I/O
The ADE7518 uses three input/output ports to exchange data
with external devices. In addition to performing general-purpose
I/O, some are capable of driving an LCD or performing alternate
functions for the peripherals available on-chip. In general, when a
peripheral is enabled, the pins associated with it cannot be used as
a general-purpose I/O. The I/O port can be configured through
the SFRs listed in Table 136.
Table 136. I/O Port SFRs

PINMAP0 0xB2 No Port 0 Weak
Pull-Up Enable.
PINMAP1 0xB3 No Port 1 Weak

PINMAP2 0xB4 No Port 2 Weak
Pull-Up Enable.
The three bidirectional I/O ports have internal pull-ups that can
be enabled or disabled individually for each pin. The internal
pull-ups are enabled by default. Disabling an internal pull-up
causes a pin to become open drain. Weak internal pull-ups are
configured through the PINMAPx SFRs.
Figure 101 shows a typical bit latch and I/O buffer for an I/O pin.
The bit latch (one bit in each port’s SFR) is represented as a
Type D flip-flop, which clocks in a value from the internal bus
in response to a write-to-latch signal from the CPU. The Q output
of the flip-flop is placed on the internal bus in response to a read
latch signal from the CPU. The level of the port pin itself is
placed on the internal bus in response to a read pin signal from
the CPU. Some instructions that read a port activate the read
latch signal, and others activate the read pin signal. See the
Read-Modify-Write Instructions section for details.

Figure 101. Port 0 Bit Latch and I/O Buffer
Weak Internal Pull-Ups Enabled
A pin with weak internal pull-up enabled is used as an input by
writing a 1 to the pin. The pin is pulled high by the internal pull-
ups, and the pin is read using the circuitry shown in Figure 101.
If the pin is driven low externally, it sources current because of
the internal pull-ups.
A pin with internal pull-up enabled is used as an output by
writing a 1 or a 0 to the pin to control the level of the output.
If a 0 is written to the pin, it drives a logic low output voltage
(VOL) and is capable of sinking 1.6 mA.
Open Drain (Weak Internal Pull-Ups Disabled)
When the weak internal pull-up on a pin is disabled, the pin
becomes open drain. Use this open-drain pin as a high impedance
input by writing a 1 to the pin. The pin is read using the circuitry
shown in Figure 101. The open-drain option is preferable for
inputs because it draws less current than the internal pull-ups
that were enabled.
38 kHz Modulation
The ADE7518 provides a 38 kHz modulation signal. The
38 kHz modulation is accomplished by internally XOR’ing the
level written to the I/O pin with a 38 kHz square wave. Then,
when a 0 is written to the I/O pin, it is modulated as shown in
Figure 102.

Uses for this 38 kHz modulation include IR modulation of
a UART transmit signal or a low power signal to drive an
LED. The modulation can be enabled or disabled with the
MOD38EN bit in the CFG SFR. The 38 kHz modulation is
available on eight pins, selected by the MOD38[7:0] bits in
the Extended Port Configuration SFR (EPCFG, 0x9F).

PORT 0
Port 0 is controlled directly through the bit-addressable Port 0
SFR (P0, 0x80). The weak internal pull-ups for Port 0 are confi-
gured through the Port 0 Weak Pull-Up Enable SFR (PINMAP0,
0xB2); they are enabled by default. The weak internal pull-up is
disabled by writing a 1 to PINMAP0.x.
Port 0 pins also have various secondary functions as described
in Table 144. The alternate functions of Port 0 pins can be
activated only if the corresponding bit latch in the Port 0 SFR
contains a 1. Otherwise, the port pin remains at 0.
PORT 1
Port 1 is an 8-bit bidirectional port controlled directly through
the bit-addressable Port 1 SFR (P1, 0x90). The weak internal
pull-ups for Port 1 are configured through the Port 1 Weak

default. The weak internal pull-up is disabled by writing a 1 to
PINMAP1.x.
Port 1 pins also have various secondary functions as described
in Table 145. The alternate functions of Port 1 pins can be
activated only if the corresponding bit latch in the Port 1 SFR
contains a 1. Otherwise, the port pin remains at 0.
PORT 2
Port 2 is a 4-bit bidirectional port controlled directly through
the bit-addressable Port 2 SFR (P2, 0xA0). Note that P2.3 can be
used as an output only. Consequently, any read operation, such
as a CPL P2.3, cannot be executed on this I/O. The weak internal
pull-ups for Port 2 are configured through the Port 2 Weak
Pull-Up Enable SFR (PINMAP2, 0xB4); they are enabled by
default. The weak internal pull-up is disabled by writing a 1 to
PINMAP2.x.
Port 2 pins also have various secondary functions as described
in Table 146. The alternate functions of Port 2 pins can be
activated only if the corresponding bit latch in the Port 2 SFR
