power factors. All signal processing is carried out in the digital domain for superior stability over

temperature and time.

Accumulating this real power information generates the low frequency output of the BL0921. This

low frequency inherently means a long accumulation time between output pulses. The output

frequency is therefore proportional to the average real power. This average real power information

can, in turn, be accumulated (e.g., by a counter) to generate real energy information. Because of its

high output frequency and hence shorter integration time, the CF output is proportional to the

instantaneous real power. This is useful for system calibration purposes that would take place

under steady load conditions.

Offset Effect

The dc offsets come from the input signals and the forepart analog circuitry.

Effect of Offset

As can be seen, for each phase input, if there are simultaneous dc offsets on the voltage channel

and the current channel, these offsets contribute a dc component for the result of multiplication.
