Maximum Output Frequencies
Table II shows the maximum output frequencies of FOUT and
F1, F2 for the various operating modes of the AD7750. The
table shows the maximum output frequencies for dc and ac
input signals on V1 and V2. When an ac signal (sinusoidal) is
applied to V1 and V2 the AD7750 produces an output frequency
which is proportional to the product of the rms value of these
inputs. If two ac signals with peak differential values of V1MAX
and V2MAX are applied to Channels 1 and 2, respectively, then
the output frequency is proportional to V1MAX/sqrt(2) × V2MAX/
sqrt(2) = (V1MAX × V2MAX)/2. If V1MAX and V2MAX are also the
maximum dc input voltages then the maximum output frequen-
cies for ac signals will always be half that of dc input signals.
Example calculation of F1, F2 max for Mode 2 and Gain = 1.
The maximum input voltage (dc) on Channel 1 is 2 V (V1+ =
+1 V, V1– = –1 V)—see Analog Inputs section. The maximum
input voltage on Channel 2 is 1 V. Using the transfer function:
k = (1.32 × V1 × V2 × Gain)/VREF2
k = 0.4224
F1, F2 = k.6.8 Hz = 2.9 Hz
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7750 combines two analog-to-digital converters, a digi-
tal multiplier, digital filters and a digital-to-frequency (DTF)
converter onto one low cost integrated circuit. The AD7750 is
fabricated on a double poly CMOS process (0.6 µ) and retains
its high accuracy by performing all multiplications and manipu-
lations in the digital domain. The schematic in Figure 15 shows
an equivalent circuit for the AD7750 signal processing chain.
The first thing to notice is that the analog signals are first con-
verted to digital signals by the two second-order sigma-delta
modulators. All subsequent signal processing is carried out in
the digital domain. The main source of errors in an application
is therefore in the analog-to-digital conversion process. For this
reason great care must be taken when interfacing the analog
inputs of the AD7750 to the transducer. This is discussed in the
Applications section.
HPF in Channel 1
To remove any dc offset that may be present at the output
modulator 1, a user selectable high-pass IIR filter (Pin ACDC)
can be introduced into the signal path. This HPF is necessary
when carrying out power measurements. However, this HPF
has an associated phase lead given by 90°–tan–1(f/2.25). Figure
16 shows the transfer function of the HPF in Channel 1. The
Phase lead is 2.58° at 50 Hz. In order to equalize the phase
difference between the two channels a fixed time delay is intro-
duced. The time delay is set at 143 µs, which is equivalent to a
phase lag of –2.58° at 50 Hz. Thus the cumulative phase shift
through Channel 1 is 0°.
Because the time delay is fixed, external phase compensation
circuitry will be required if the line frequency differs from
50 Hz. For example with a line frequency of 60 Hz the phase
lead due to the HPF is 2.148° and the phase lag due to the fixed
time delay is 3.1°. This means there is a net phase lag in Chan-
nel 1 of 0.952°. This phase lag in Channel 1 can be compen-
sated for by using a phase lag compensation circuit like the
one shown in Figure 17. The phase lag compensation is placed
on Channel 2 (voltage channel) to equalize the channels. The
antialiasing filter associated with Channel 1 (see Applications
section) produces a phase lag of 0.6° at 50 Hz; therefore, to
equalize the channels, a net phase lag of (0.6° + 0.952°) 1.552°
should be in place on Channel 2. The gain trim resistor VR1
(100 Ω) produces a phase lag variation of 1.4° to 1.5° with VR2
= 0 Ω. VR2 can add an additional 0.1° phase lag (VR2 = 200 Ω).
