SBOSAB4A May 2023 – September 2023 INA700
PRODUCTION DATA
The current and charge are calculated after temperature and shunt voltage measurements, while the power and energy are calculated after a bus voltage measurement. Power and energy are calculated based on the previous current calculation and the latest bus voltage measurement.
The current, voltage, and temperature values are immediate results when the number of averages is set to one (see Figure 7-6). However, when averaging is used, each ADC measurement is an intermediate result that is stored in the corresponding averaging registers. Following every ADC sample, the newly-calculated values for current, voltage, and temperature are appended to their corresponding averaging registers until the set number of averages is achieved. After all of the samples have been measured, the average current and voltage is determined, then the power is calculated and the results are loaded to the corresponding output registers where they can then be read.
The energy and charge values are accumulated for each conversion cycle. Therefore the INA700 averaging function is not applied to these.
Calculations for power, charge and energy are performed in the background and do not add to the overall conversion time.
