BL0940 Overview

Part: BL0940

Type: Calibration-Free Energy Metering IC

Description: Single-phase energy metering IC with dual Sigma-Delta ADCs, integrated 1.218 V reference, and SPI/UART interfaces for measuring RMS voltage, RMS current, active power, and temperature.

Operating Conditions:

  • Supply voltage: 3.0–3.6 V (3.3 V typical)
  • Operating temperature: -40 to +85 °C
  • Power consumption: 10 mW typical (3 mA at VDD = 3.3 V)

Absolute Maximum Ratings:

  • Max supply voltage: -0.3 to +4 V
  • Max junction/storage temperature: -55 to +150 °C

Key Specs:

  • Internal voltage reference: 1.218 V
  • Current channel differential input: ±50 mV peak (35 mV rms) max
  • Voltage channel differential input: ±100 mV (70 mV rms) / ±200 mV peak max
  • Analog input impedance: 370 kΩ
  • Active energy measurement accuracy: 0.2% (35 A to 100 mA @ 1 mΩ shunt)
  • Current RMS measurement accuracy: 0.2% (35 A to 100 mA @ 1 mΩ shunt)
  • Fast RMS response time: 10 to 40 ms (50 Hz), 8.3 to 33 ms (60 Hz)
  • Zero-crossing output delay: 571 μs

Features:

  • Dual independent Sigma-Delta ADCs for current and voltage
  • Calibration-free with batch factory gain error under 1%
  • Measures RMS current, RMS voltage, fast RMS current, active power, and phase angle
  • Leakage and overcurrent monitoring on current channel with configurable threshold
  • Built-in waveform register (7.8 kHz update rate) for load type analysis
  • Integrated temperature sensor for internal and external temperature monitoring
  • Power-down reset monitoring (trips below 2.7 V)
  • SPI (up to 900 kHz) and UART (4800 bps) digital interfaces

Applications:

  • Single-phase multi-function energy meters
  • Smart plugs / smart sockets
  • Smart home appliances
  • Electric bicycle charging stations
  • Power consumption data acquisition

Package:

  • TSSOP14
