mode that simplifies the calibration process. By using the on-
chip, zero-crossing detection, the ADE7758 updates the watt-hr
accumulation registers after an integer number of zero crossings
(see Figure 71). The line-active energy accumulation mode for
watt-hr accumulation is activated by setting the LWATT bit
From Equation 25, it can be seen that there is a small ripple in
the energy calculation due to the sin(2ωt) component (see
Figure 70). The ripple gets larger with larger loads. Choosing a
lower output frequency for APCF during calibration by using a
large APCFDEN value and keeping APCFNUM relatively small
can significantly reduce the ripple. Averaging the output
frequency over a longer period achieves the same results.

lated over an integer number of half-line cycles is written to the
watt-hr accumulation registers after the LINECYC number of zero
crossings is detected. When using the line cycle accumulation
mode, the RSTREAD bit (Bit 6) of the LCYCMODE register
should be set to Logic 0.
