4.2 Principles of each unit circuit

aPower sensing circuit

The power meter sensing circuit is composed of a chopper and a linear correction circuit. The chopper is designed with high sensitivity and low noiseMOS—FETA series chopper composed of switching tubes. Its function is to modulate the DC signal input through the power probe into an equivalent AC signal, which is more convenient for the processing of the subsequent amplification circuit. The linear correction circuit is composed of a spreadsheet that stores sensor parameters and is passed throughCPUThe processing was carried out.

bPre amplifier

A preamplifier is a hybrid amplifier composed of high gain transistors and high impedance, low barrier operational amplifiers. The AC gain of this amplifier is approximately600It utilizes the low noise of transistors and the high gain of operational amplifiers.

c.Attenuation network and main amplifier

The attenuation network is composed of analog switches and resistors, and is controlled by a central processing unit. It determines the range conversion. The main amplifier is mainly composed of programmable gain amplifiers, which can be adjusted to the appropriate gain under the control of the central processing unit.

dAmplification network and analog-to-digital converter

The amplification network is composed of high impedance and low barrier operational amplifiers, respectivelyX1、X10andX100Amplify the network and generate signals of three different ranges. Three signals enter the multi-channel, high-speed analog-to-digital converter simultaneously, and the central processor reads the corresponding data according to different ranges.

eZero network adjustment

Zeroing network is composed of digital to analog converters and corresponding devices. When the instrument is performing a zero adjustment operation, the data read from the analog-to-digital converter by the central processing unit is analyzed accordingly and the digital to analog converter provides the opposite signal to cancel out the zero point error in the circuit and achieve the zero adjustment effect.

gRecorder output circuit and meter drive circuit

The output circuit of the recorder and the driving circuit of the electric meter are composed of digital to analog converters and corresponding operational amplifiers. The central processing unit drives this part of the circuit based on the results of each measurement.

h.Central Processing Unit

The central processing unit adopts high-performance technology8bitmicroprocessor. It manages the operation of the entire instrument.

i.Panel Circuit
