Single-Phase Energy Meter Solution for Advanced Applications
TIDM-EMETER-CORTEXM3: This design features a dual-core microcontroller implementing an integrated electricity metering solution. The meter has been tested to prove 0.5% accuracy across a current dynamic range of 2000:1 by using a precision, low-noise op-amp and a programmable gain amplifier (PGA) to provide four gain stages. The metrology calculations are performed independently of the MCUs' integrated cores, leaving both MCUs available for other applications, including Power Line Communications(PLC). Developers will benefit from this design by taking advantage of both the M3 and C28x MCUs to provide the e-meter host applications and PLC communications.
Isolated IGBT Gate-Drive Push-Pull Power Supply with 4 Outputs
TIDA-00181: This reference design provides isolated positive and negative voltage rails required for Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) gate drivers from a single 24-volt DC input supply. IGBTs are used in three phase inverters for variable-frequency drives to control the speed of AC motors. This reference design uses a push-pull isolated control topology and provides isolation compliant to IEC61800-5 and is intended to operate from a pre-regulated 24Vdc input. With a regulated (within 5%) input source, a simple open-loop, free-running oscillator can be implemented with a push-pull PWM controller. This topology is essentially a forward converter with two primary windings used to create a dual-drive winding. This fully utilizes the transformer core's magnetizing current more efficiently than flyback or the forward topologies. Another advantage this configuration has over flyback and forward configurations is that the supply output can be scaled up for higher power drives. This reference design also takes advantage of another benefit of the push pull topology in that multiple transformers can be controlled in parallel from a single controller to generate all the isolated voltage rails required for 3-phase IGBT inverters. Lastly, larger IGBTs for higher power drives sometimes require more gate drive current than what is provided by a typical IGBT gate driver, for which designers often use additional transistors for gate current boosting. This reference design provides +16V on the positive outputs and -8V on the negative outputs to compensate for the added voltage drop in those transistors.
Synchronizing Multiple JESD204B ADCs for Emitter Position Location Reference Design
TIDA-00467: A common technique to estimate the position of emitters uses the amplitude and phase shift data of a signal derived from an array of spatially distributed sensors. For such systems, it is important to guarantee a deterministic phase relationship between the sensors to minimize errors in the actual measured data. This application design will discuss how multiple Analog to Digital Converters (ADCs) with a JESD204B interface can be synchronized so that the sampled data from the ADCs are phase aligned.
High Fidelity Audio Headphone Playback Reference Design for Portable and Smartphone Applications
TIDA-00385: Since the use of high fidelity headphones is a growing trend for portable audio playback, higher performance DAC and Headphone Amplifiers are demanded. This system converts digital audio from USB, SPDIF, or optical sources into analog using PCM5242 audio DAC. A high performance TPA6120A2 headphone amplifier in conjunction with the differential DAC achieves stunning musical clarity and definition as well as industry leading noise performance, critical for low noise headphone playback. The power supply architecture is designed to work from a 3.3V source to increase flexibility and integration into existing products and systems.
