71M6543F/71M6543G
Energy Meter ICs
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 71M6543F/71M6543G are 4th-generation polyphase metering
systems-on-chips (SoCs) with a 5MHz 8051-compatible MPU core,
low-power real-time clock (RTC) with digital temperature
compensation, flash memory, and LCD driver. Our Single
Converter Technology® with a 22-bit delta-sigma ADC, seven
analog inputs, digital metrology temperature compensation,
precision voltage reference, and a 32-bit computation engine (CE)
supports a wide range of metering applications with very few
external components.
The 71M6543F/71M6543G support optional interfaces to the
71M6xx3 series of isolated sensors that offer BOM cost reduction,
immunity to magnetic tamper, and enhanced reliability. The ICs
feature ultra-low-power operation in active and battery modes, 5KB
shared RAM, and 64KB (71M6543F) or 128KB (71M6543G) of
flash memory, which can be programmed with code and/or data
during meter operation.
A complete array of code development tools, demonstration code,
and reference designs enable rapid development and certification of
meters that meet all ANSI and IEC electricity metering standards
worldwide.

1 Introduction
This data sheet covers the 71M6543F (64KB) and 71M6543G (128KB) 4th-generation polyphase energy
measurement system-on-chips (SoCs). The term “71M6543” is used when discussing a device feature or
behavior that is applicable to all four part numbers. The specific part numbers are used when discussing
those features that apply only to specific part numbers. This data sheet also covers details about the
companion 71M6xx3 isolated current sensor device.
This document covers the use of the 71M6543 in conjunction with the 71M6xx3 isolated current sensor.
The 71M6543 and 71M6xx3 ICs make it possible to use one non-isolated and three additional isolated
shunt current sensors to create polyphase energy meters using inexpensive shunt resistors, while
achieving unprecedented performance with this type of sensor technology. The 71M6543 SoCs also
support Current Transformers (CT).

2 Hardware Description
2.1 Hardware Overview
The 71M6543 single-chip energy meter integrates all primary functional blocks required to implement a
solid-state electricity meter. Included on the chip are:
An analog front-end (AFE) featuring a 22-bit second-order sigma-delta ADC
An independent 32-bit digital computation engine (CE) to implement DSP functions
An 8051-compatible microprocessor (MPU) which executes one instruction per clock cycle (80515)
A precision voltage reference (VREF)
A temperature sensor for digital temperature compensation of:
- Metrology (MPU)
- Automatic RTC in all power states
- MPU assisted RTC compensation
LCD Driver
RAM and Flash memory
A real time clock (RTC)
A variety of I/O pins
A power failure interrupt
A zero-crossing interrupt
Selectable current sensor interfaces for locally-connected sensors as well as isolated sensors (i.e.,
using the 71M6xx3 companion IC with a shunt resistor sensor)
Resistive Shunt and Current Transformers are supported
In order to implement a polyphase meter with or without neutral current sensing, one resistive shunt
current sensor may be connected directly (non-isolated) to the 71M6543 device, while up to three
additional current shunts are isolated using a companion 71M6xx3 isolated sensor IC. An inexpensive,
small size pulse transformer is used to electrically isolate the 71M6xx3 remote sensor from the 71M6543.
The 71M6543 performs digital communications bi-directionally with the 71M6xx3 and also provides power
to the 71M6xx3 through the isolating pulse transformer. Isolated (remote) shunt current sensors are
connected to the differential input of the 71M6xx3. The 71M6543 may also be used with Current
Transformers; in this case the 71M6xx3 isolated sensors are not required. Included on the 71M6xx3
companion isolator chip are:
Digital isolation communications interface
An analog front-end (AFE) featuring a 22-bit second-order sigma-delta ADC
A precision voltage reference (VREF)
A temperature sensor (for current-sensing digital temperature compensation)
A fully differential shunt resistor sensor input
A pre-amplifier to optimize shunt current sensor performance
Isolated power circuitry obtains dc power from pulses sent by the 71M6543
In a typical application, the 32-bit compute engine (CE) of the 71M6543 sequentially processes the
samples from the voltage inputs on analog input pins and performs calculations to measure active energy
(Wh) and reactive energy (VARh), as well as A2h, and V2h for four-quadrant metering. These measurements
are then accessed by the MPU, processed further and output using the peripheral devices available to the
MPU.
In addition to advanced measurement functions, the real time clock (RTC) function allows the 71M6543 to
record time of use (TOU) metering information for multi-rate applications and to time-stamp tamper or other
events. An automatic RTC temperature compensation circuit operates in all power states including when the
MPU is halted, and continues to compensate using back-up battery power during power outages.
Measurements can be displayed on 3.3 V LCDs commonly used in low-temperature environments. The
integrated charge pump and temperature sensor can be used by the MPU to enhance 3.3 V LCD
performance at cold temperatures. The on-chip charge pump may also drive 5 V LCDs. Flexible mapping of
LCD display segments facilitates the integration of existing custom LCDs. Design trade-off between the
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet

number of LCD segments and DIO pins can be implemented in software to accommodate various
requirements.
In addition to the temperature-trimmed ultra-precision voltage reference, the on-chip digital temperature
compensation mechanism includes a temperature sensor and associated controls for correction of unwanted
temperature effects on metrology and RTC accuracy (i.e., to meet the requirements of ANSI and IEC
standards). Temperature-dependent external components such as the crystal oscillator, current
transformers (CTs), Current Shunts and their corresponding signal conditioning circuits can be character-
ized and their correction factors can be programmed to produce electricity meters with exceptional accuracy
over the industrial temperature range.
One of the two internal UARTs is adapted to support an Infrared LED with internal drive and sense
configuration and can also function as a standard UART. The optical output can be modulated at 38 kHz.
This flexibility makes it possible to implement AMR meters with an IR interface. A block diagram of the IC
is shown in Figure 1.
2.2 Analog Front-End (AFE)
The AFE functions as a data acquisition system, controlled by the MPU. The 71M6543 AFE may also be
augmented by isolated 71M6xx3 sensors in order to support low-cost current shunt sensors. Figure 2,
and Figure 3 show the two most common configurations; other configurations are possible. Sensors that
are connected directly to the 71M6543 (i.e., IADC0-IADC1, VADC8, VADC9 and VADC10) are
multiplexed into the single second-order sigma-delta ADC input for sampling in the 71M6543. The
71M6543 ADC output is decimated by the FIR filter and stored in CE RAM where it can be accessed and
processed by the CE.
Shunt current sensors that are isolated by using a 71M6xx3 device, are sampled by a second-order
sigma delta ADC in the 71M6xx3 and the signal samples are transferred over the digital isolation interface
through the low-cost isolation pulse transformer.
Figure 2 shows the 71M6543 using shunt current sensors and the 71M6xx3 isolated sensor devices.
Figure 2 supports neutral current measurement with a local shunt connected to the IADC0-IADC1 input
plus three remote (isolated) shunt sensors. As seen in Figure 2, when a remote isolated shunt sensor is
connected via the 71M6xx3, the samples associated with this current channel are not routed to the
multiplexer, and are instead transferred digitally to the 71M6543 via the isolation interface and are directly
stored in CE RAM. The MUX_SELn[3:0] I/O RAM control fields allow the MPU to configure the AFE for the
desired multiplexer sampling sequence. Refer to Table 1 and Table 2 for the appropriate CE code and the
corresponding AFE settings.
See Figure 31 for the meter wiring configuration corresponding to Figure 2.

The 71M6543 AFE can also be directly interfaced to Current Transformers (CTs), as seen in Figure 3. In
this case, all voltage and current channels are multiplexed into a single second-order sigma-delta ADC in
the 71M6543 and the 71M6xx3 remote isolated sensors are not used. The fourth CT and the
measurement of Neutral current via the IADC0-IADC1 current channel are optional.

2.2.1 Signal Input Pins
The 71M6543 features eleven ADC input pins.
IADC0 through IADC7 are intended for use as current sensor inputs. These eight current sensor inputs can
be configured as four single-ended inputs, or can be paired to form four differential inputs. For best
performance, it is recommended to configure the current sensor inputs as differential inputs (i.e., IADC0-
IADC1, IADC2-IADC3, IADC4-IADC5 and IADC6-IADC7). The first differential input (IADC0-IADC1)
features a pre-amplifier with a selectable gain of 1 or 8, and is intended for direct connection to a shunt
resistor sensor, and can also be used with a Current Transformer (CT). The three remaining differential
pairs (i.e., IADC2-IADC3, IADC4-IADC5 and IADC6-IADC7) may be used with CTs, or may be enabled to
interface to a remote 71M6xx3 isolated current sensor providing isolation for a shunt resistor sensor using a
low cost pulse transformer.
The remaining three inputs VADC8 (VA), VADC9 (VB) and VADC10 (VC) are single-ended, and are
intended for sensing each of the phase voltages in a polyphase meter application. These three single-ended
inputs are referenced to the V3P3A pin.
All ADC input pins measure voltage. In the case of shunt current sensors, currents are sensed as a voltage
drop in the shunt resistor sensor. In the case of Current Transformers (CT), the current is measured as a
voltage across a burden resistor that is connected to the secondary of the CT. Meanwhile, line voltages are
sensed through resistive voltage dividers. The VADC8 (VA), VADC9 (VB) and VADC10 (VC) pins are
single-ended and their common return is the V3P3A pin. See Figure 27, Figure 28, Figure 29 and Figure
30 for detailed connections for each type of sensor. Also refer to the 71M6543 Demonstration Board
schematic and bill of materials for typical component values used in these and other circuits.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
14 v2
Pins IADC0-IADC1 can be programmed individually to be differential or single-ended as determined by
the DIFF0_E (I/O RAM 0x210C[4]) control bit. However, for most applications, IADC0-IADC1 are
configured as a differential input to work with a resistive shunt or CT directly interfaced to the IADC0-
IADC1 differential input with the appropriate external signal conditioning components.
The performance of the IADC0-IADC1 pins can be enhanced by enabling a pre-amplifier with a fixed gain
of 8, using the I/O RAM control bit PRE_E (I/O RAM 0x2704[5]). When PRE_E = 1, IADC0-IADC1 become
the inputs to the 8x pre-amplifier, and the output of this amplifier is supplied to the multiplexer. The 8x
amplification is useful when current sensors with low sensitivity, such as shunt resistors, are used. With
PRE_E set, the IADC0-IADC1 input signal amplitude is restricted to 31.25 mV peak. When PRE_E = 0
(Gain = 1), the IADC0-IADC1 input signal is restricted to 250 mV peak.
For the 71M6543 application utilizing shunt resistor sensors (Figure 2), the IADC0-IADC1 pins are
configured for differential mode to interface to a local shunt by setting the DIFF0_E control bit. Meanwhile,
the IADC2-IADC3 , IADC4-IADC5 and IADC6-IADC7 pins are re-configured as digital remote sensor
interface designed to communicate with a 71M6xx3 isolated sensor by setting the RMTx_E control bits (I/O
RAM 0x2709[5:3]). The 71M6xx3 communicates with the 71M6543 using a bi-directional digital data stream
through an isolating pulse transformer. The 71M6543 also supplies power to the 71M6xx3 through the
isolating transformer. This type of interface is further described at the end of this chapter. See 2.2.8
71M6xx3 Isolated Sensor Interface.
For use with Current Transformers (CTs), as shown in Figure 3, the RMTx_E control bits are reset, so that
IADC2-IADC3, IADC4-IADC5 and IADC6-IADC7 are configured as local analog inputs. The IADC0-IADC1
pins cannot be configured as a remote sensor interface.
2.2.2 Input Multiplexer
When operating with locally connected sensors, the input multiplexer sequentially applies the input signals
from the analog input pins to the input of the ADC (see Figure 3), according to the sampling sequence
determined by the eleven MUXn_SEL[3:0] control fields. One complete sampling sequence is called a
multiplexer frame. The multiplexer of the 71M6543 can select up to eleven input signals when the current
sensor inputs are configured for single-ended mode. When the current sensor inputs are configured in
differential mode (recommended for best performance), the number of input signals is seven (i.e., IADC0-
IADC1, IADC2-IADC3, IADC4-IADC5, IADC6-IADC7, VADC8, VADC9 and VADC10) per multiplexer frame.
The number of slots in the multiplexer frame is controlled by the I/O RAM control field MUX_DIV[3:0] (I/O
RAM 0x2100[7:4]) (see Figure 4). The multiplexer always starts at state 0 and proceeds until the number
of sensor channels determined by the MUX_DIV[3:0] field setting have been converted.
The 71M6543 requires a unique CE code that is written for the specific meter configuration. Moreover,
each CE code requires specific AFE and MUX settings in order to function properly. Table 1 provides
the CE code and settings corresponding to the 1-Local / 3-Remote sensor configuration shown in
Figure 2. Table 2 provides the CE code and settings corresponding to the CT configuration shown in
Figure 3.

1. MUX_DIV[3:0] must be set to 0 while writing the other RAM locations in this table.
2. Each unused slot must be assigned to a valid (0 to A), but unused ADC handle.
3. This channel is remote (71M6xx3), hence DIFFx_E is irrelevant.
4. Must use the CE code that corresponds to the specific 71M6xx3 device used.
Maxim updates the CE code periodically. Contact your local Maxim representative to obtain
the latest CE code and the associated settings.

For a polyphase configuration with neutral current sensing using shunt resistor current sensors and the
71M6xx3 isolated sensors, as shown in Figure 2, the IADC0-IADC1 input must be configured as a
differential input, to be connected to a local shunt (see Figure 30 for the shunt connection details). The
local shunt connected to the IADC0-IADC1 input is used to sense the Neutral current. The voltage
sensors (VADC8, VADC9 and VADC10) are also directly connected to the 71M6543 (see Figure 27 for
the connection details) and are also routed though the multiplexer, as seen in Figure 2. Meanwhile, the
IADC2-IADC3, IADC4-IADC5 and IADC6-IADC7 current inputs are configured as remote sensor digital
interfaces and the corresponding samples are not routed through the multiplexer. For this configuration,
the multiplexer sequence is as shown in Figure 4.
For a polyphase configuration with optional neutral current sensing using Current Transformer (CTs)
sensors, as shown in Figure 3, all four current sensor inputs must be configured as a differential inputs, to
be connected to their corresponding CTs (see Figure 29 for the differential CT connection details). The
IADC0-IADC1 current sensor input is optionally used to sense the Neutral current for anti-tampering
purposes. The voltage sensors (VADC8, VADC9 and VADC10) are directly connected to the 71M6543
(see Figure 27 for the voltage sensor connection details). No 71M6xx3 isolated sensors are used in this
configuration and all sensors are routed though the multiplexer, as seen in Figure 3. For this
configuration, the multiplexer sequence is as shown in Figure 5.
The multiplexer sequence shown in Figure 4 corresponds to the configuration shown in Figure 2. The
frame duration is 13 CK32 cycles (where CK32 = 32,768 Hz), therefore, the resulting sample rate is
32,768 Hz / 13 = 2,520.6 Hz. Note that Figure 4 only shows the currents that pass through the 71M6543
multiplexer, and does not show the currents that are copied directly into CE RAM from the remote
sensors (see Figure 2), which are sampled during the second half of the multiplexer frame. The two
unused conversion slots shown are necessary to produce the desired 2,520.6 Hz sample rate.

The multiplexer sequence shown in Figure 5 corresponds to the CT configuration shown in Figure 3.
Since in this case all current sensors are locally connected to the 71M6543, all currents are routed
through the multiplexer, as seen in Figure 3. For this multiplexer sequence, the frame duration is 15 CK32

Multiplexer advance, FIR initiation and chopping of the ADC reference voltage (using the internal CROSS
signal, see 2.2.7 Voltage References) are controlled by the internal MUX_CTRL circuit. Additionally,
MUX_CTRL launches each pass of the CE through its code. MUX_CTRL is clocked by CK32, the 32768 Hz
clock from the PLL block. The behavior of the MUX_CTRL circuit is governed by:
CHOP_E[1:0] (I/O RAM 0x2106[3:2])
MUX_DIV[3:0] (I/O RAM 0x2100[7:4])
FIR_LEN[1:0] (I/O RAM 0x210C[2:1])
ADC_DIV (I/O RAM 0x2200[5])
The duration of each multiplexer state depends on the number of ADC samples processed by the FIR as
determined by the FIR_LEN[1:0] (I/O RAM 0x210C[2:1] control field. Each multiplexer state starts on the
rising edge of CK32, the 32-kHz clock.
It is required that MUX_DIV[3:0] (I/O RAM 0x2100[7:4]) be set to zero while changing the ADC
configuration to minimize system transients. After all configuration bits are set, MUX_DIV[3:0]
should be set to the required value.
The duration of each time slot in CK32 cycles depends on FIR_LEN[1:0], ADC_DIV and PLL_FAST:
Time_Slot_Duration = (3-2*PLL_FAST)*(FIR_LEN[1:0]+1) * (ADC_DIV+1)
The duration of a multiplexer frame in CK32 cycles is:
MUX_Frame_Duration = 3-2*PLL_FAST + Time_Slot_Duration * MUX_DIV[3:0]
The duration of a multiplexer frame in CK_FIR cycles is:
MUX frame duration (CK_FIR cycles) =
[3-2*PLL_FAST + Time_Slot_Duration * MUX_DIV] * (48+PLL_FAST*102)
The ADC conversion sequence is programmable through the MUXn_SEL control fields (I/O RAM 0x2100
to 0x2105). As stated above, there are up to eleven ADC time slots in the 71M6543, as set by
MUX_DIV[3:0] (I/O RAM 0x2100[7:4]). In the expression MUXn_SEL[3:0] = x, ‘n’ refers to the multiplexer
frame time slot number and ‘x’ refers to the desired ADC input number or ADC handle (i.e., IADC0 to VADC10,
or simply 0 to 10 decimal). Thus, there are a total of 11 valid ADC handles in the 71M6543 devices. For
example, if MUX0_SEL[3:0] = 0, then IADC0, corresponding to the sample from the IADC0-IADC1 input
(configured as a differential input), is positioned in the multiplexer frame during time slot 0. See Table 1 and
Table 2 for the appropriate MUXn_SEL[3:0] settings and other settings applicable to a particular meter
configuration and CE code.
Note that when the remote sensor interface is enabled, the samples corresponding to the remote
sensor currents do not pass through the 71M6543 multiplexer. The sampling of the remote current
sensors occurs in the second half of the multiplexer frame. The VA, VB and VC voltages are assigned
the last three slots in the frame. With this slot assignment for VA, VB and VC, the sampling of the
corresponding remote sensor currents bears a precise timing relationship to their corresponding phase
voltages, and delay compensation is accurately performed (see 2.2.3 Delay Compensation on page 19).
Also when using remote sensors, it is necessary to introduce unused slots to realize the number of
slots specified by the MUX_DIV[3:0] (I/O RAM 0x2100[7:4]) field setting (see Figure 4 and Figure 5). The
MUXn_SEL[3:0] control fields for these unused (“dummy”) slots must be written with a valid ADC handle
(i.e., 0 to 10 decimal) that is not otherwise being used. In this manner, the unused ADC handle, is used
as a dummy” place holder in the multiplexer frame, and the correct duration multiplexer frame
sequence is generated and also the desired sample rate. The resulting sample data stored in the CE
RAM location corresponding to the “dummy” ADC handle is ignored by the CE code. Meanwhile, the
digital isolation interface takes care of automatically storing the samples for the remote current sensors
in the appropriate CE RAM locations.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
v2 19
Delay compensation and other functions in the CE code require the settings for MUX_DIV[3:0],
MUXn_SEL[3:0], RMT_E, FIR_LEN[1:0], ADC_DIV and PLL_FAST to be fixed for a given CE code.
Refer to Table 1 and Table 2 for the settings that are applicable to the 71M6543.

2.2.3 Delay Compensation
When measuring the energy of a phase (i.e., Wh and VARh) in a service, the voltage and current for that
phase must be sampled at the same instant. Otherwise, the phase difference, Ф, introduces errors.
o
delay
o
delay
ft
T
t360360 ==
φ
Where f is the frequency of the input signal, T = 1/f and tdelay is the sampling delay between current and
voltage.
Traditionally, sampling is accomplished by using two A/D converters per phase (one for voltage and the
other one for current) controlled to sample simultaneously. Maxim’s Single Converter Technology,
however, exploits the 32-bit signal processing capability of its CE to implement “constant delay” all-pass
filters. The all-pass filter corrects for the conversion time difference between the voltage and the
corresponding current samples that are obtained with a single multiplexed A/D converter.
The “constant delay” all-pass filter provides a broad-band delay 360o - θ, which is precisely matched to
the difference in sample time between the voltage and the current of a given phase. This digital filter does
not affect the amplitude of the signal, but provides a precisely controlled phase response.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
20 v2
The recommended ADC multiplexer sequence samples the current first, immediately followed by
sampling of the corresponding phase voltage, thus the voltage is delayed by a phase angle Ф relative to
the current. The delay compensation implemented in the CE aligns the voltage samples with their
corresponding current samples by first delaying the current samples by one full sample interval (i.e.,
360o), then routing the voltage samples through the all-pass filter, thus delaying the voltage samples by
360o - θ, resulting in the residual phase error between the current and its corresponding voltage of θ Ф.
The residual phase error is negligible, and is typically less than ±1.5 milli-degrees at 100Hz, thus it does
not contribute to errors in the energy measurements.
When using remote sensors, the CE performs the same delay compensation described above to align
each voltage sample with its corresponding current sample. Even though the remote current samples do
not pass through the 71M6543 multiplexer, their timing relationship to their corresponding voltages is
fixed and precisely known, provided that the MUXn_SEL[3:0] slot assignment fields are programmed as
shown in Table 1. Note that these slot assignments result in VA, VB and VC occupying multiplexer slots
3, 4 and 5, respectively (see Figure 4).
2.2.4 ADC Pre-Amplifier
The ADC pre-amplifier is a low-noise differential amplifier with a fixed gain of 8 available only on the
IADC0-IADC1 sensor input pins. A gain of 8 is enabled by setting PRE_E = 1 (I/O RAM 0x2704[5]). When
disabled, the supply current of the pre-amplifier is <10 nA and the gain is unity. With proper settings of the
PRE_E and DIFF0_E (I/O RAM 0x210C[4]) bits, the pre-amplifier can be used whether differential mode
is selected or not. For best performance, the differential mode is recommended. In order to save power,
the bias current of the pre-amplifier and ADC is adjusted according to the ADC_DIV control bit (I/O RAM
0x2200[5]).
2.2.5 A/D Converter (ADC)
A single 2nd order sigma-delta A/D converter digitizes the voltage and current inputs to the device. The
resolution of the ADC, including the sign bit, is 21 bits (FIR_LEN[1:0] = 01, I/O RAM 0x210C[2:1]), or 22
bits (FIR_LEN[1:0] = 10). The ADC is clocked by CKADC.
Initiation of each ADC conversion is controlled by the internal MUX_CTRL circuit as described earlier. At
the end of each ADC conversion, the FIR filter output data is stored into the CE RAM location determined by
the multiplexer selection.
2.2.6 FIR Filter
The finite impulse response filter is an integral part of the ADC and it is optimized for use with the multiplexer.
The purpose of the FIR filter is to decimate the ADC output to the desired resolution. At the end of each
ADC conversion, the output data is stored into the fixed CE RAM location determined by the multiplexer
selection stored in the MUXn_SEL[3:0] fields. FIR data is stored after being shifted left by 9 bits.
2.2.7 Voltage References
A bandgap circuit provides the reference voltage to the ADC. The amplifier within the reference is chopper
stabilized, i.e., the chopper circuit can be enabled or disabled by the MPU using the I/O RAM control field
CHOP_E[1:0] (I/O RAM 0x2106[3:2]). The two bits in the CHOP_E[1:0] field enable the MPU to operate the
chopper circuit in regular or inverted operation, or in toggling modes (recommended). When the chopper
circuit is toggled in between multiplexer cycles, dc offsets on VREF are automatically be averaged out,
therefore the chopper circuit should always be configured for one of the toggling modes.
Since the VREF band-gap amplifier is chopper-stabilized, the dc offset voltage, which is the most
significant long-term drift mechanism in the voltage references (VREF), is automatically removed by the
chopper circuit. Both the 71M6543 and the 71M6xx3 feature chopper circuits for their respective VREF
voltage reference.
The general topology of a chopped amplifier is shown in Figure 6. The CROSS signal is an internal on-
chip signal and is not accessible on any pin or register.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
v2 21
Figure 6: General Topology of a Chopped Amplifier
It is assumed that an offset voltage Voff appears at the positive amplifier input. With all switches, as
controlled by CROSS (an internal signal), in the A position, the output voltage is:
Voutp Voutn = G (Vinp + Voff Vinn) = G (Vinp Vinn) + G Voff
With all switches set to the B position by applying the inverted CROSS signal, the output voltage is:
Voutn Voutp = G (Vinn Vinp + Voff) = G (Vinn Vinp) + G Voff, or
Voutp Voutn = G (Vinp Vinn) - G Voff
Thus, when CROSS is toggled, e.g., after each multiplexer cycle, the offset alternately appears on the
output as positive and negative, which results in the offset effectively being eliminated, regardless of its
polarity or magnitude.
When CROSS is high, the connection of the amplifier input devices is reversed. This preserves the overall
polarity of that amplifier gain; it inverts its input offset. By alternately reversing the connection, the amplifier’s
offset is averaged to zero. This removes the most significant long-term drift mechanism in the voltage
reference. The CHOP_E[1:0] (I/O RAM 0x2106[3:2]) control field controls the behavior of CROSS. On the
first CK32 rising edge after the last multiplexer state of its sequence, the multiplexer waits one additional
CK32 cycle before beginning a new frame. At the beginning of this cycle, the value of CROSS is updated
according to the CHOP_E[1:0] field. The extra CK32 cycle allows time for the chopped VREF to settle.
During this cycle, MUXSYNC is held high. The leading edge of MUXSYNC initiates a pass through the CE
program sequence.
CHOP_E[1:0] has four states: positive, reverse, and two toggle states. In the positive state, CHOP_E[1:0]
= 01, CROSS is held low. In the reverse state, CHOP_E[1:0] = 10, CROSS is held high. The two
automatic toggling states are selected by setting CHOP_E=11 or CHOP_E=00.
Figure 7: CROSS Signal with CHOP_E = 00
Figure 7 shows CROSS over two accumulation intervals when CHOP_E[1:0] = 00: At the end of the
first interval, CROSS is high, at the end of the second interval, CROSS is low. Operation with
CHOP_E[1:0] = 00 does not require control of the chopping mechanism by the MPU.
In the second toggle state, CHOP_E[1:0] = 11, CROSS does not toggle at the end of the last multiplexer
cycle in an accumulation interval.

2.2.8 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensor Interface
2.2.8.1 General Description
Non-isolating sensors, such as shunt resistors, can be connected to the inputs of the 71M6543 via a
combination of a pulse transformer and a 71M6xx3 IC (a top-level block diagram of this sensor interface
is shown in Figure 31). The 71M6xx3 receives power directly from the 71M6543 via a pulse transformer
and does not require a dedicated power supply circuit. The 71M6xx3 establishes 2-way communication
with the 71M6543, supplying current samples and auxiliary information such as sensor temperature via a
serial data stream.
Up to three 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensors can be supported by the 71M6543. When a remote sensor
interface is enabled, the two analog current inputs become re-configured as a digital remote sensor
interface. For example, when control bit RMT2_E = 1, the IADC2-IADC3 analog pins are re-configured as
the digital interface pins to the remote sensor.
Each 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensor consists of the following building blocks:
Power supply that derives power from pulses received from the 71M6543
Bi-directional digital communications interface
Shunt signal pre-amplifier
22-bit 2nd Order Sigma-Delta ADC Converter with precision bandgap reference (chopping amplifier)
Temperature sensor (for digitally compensating VREF)
Fuse system containing part-specific information
During an ordinary multiplexer cycle, the 71M6543 internally determines which other channels are
enabled with MUX_DIV[3:0] (I/O RAM 0x2100[7:4]). At the same time, it decimates the modulator output
from the 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensors. Each result is written to CE RAM during one of its CE access time
slots.
2.2.8.2 Communication between 71M6543 and 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensor
The ADC of the 71M6xx3 derives its timing from the power pulses generated by the 71M6543 and as a
result, operates its ADC slaved to the frequency of the power pulses. The generation of power pulses, as well
as the communication protocol between the 71M6543 and 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensor, is automatic and
transparent to the user. Details are not covered in this data sheet.
2.2.8.3 Control of the 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensor
The 71M6543 can read or write certain types of information from each 71M6xx3 remote sensor.
The data to be read is selected by a combination of the RCMD[4:0] and TMUXRn[2:0]. To perform a read
transaction from one of the 71M6xx3 devices, the MPU first writes the TMUXRn[2:0] field (where n = 2, 4, 6,
located at I/O RAM 0x270A[2:0], 0x270A[6:4] and 0x2709[2:0], respectively). Next, the MPU writes
RCMD[4:0] (SFR 0xFC[4:0]) with the desired command and phase selection. When the RCMD[4:2] bits
have cleared to zero, the transaction has been completed and the requested data is available in
RMT_RD[15:0] (I/O RAM 0x2602[7:0] is the MSB and 0x2603[7:0] is the LSB). The read parity error bit,
PERR_RD (SFR 0xFC[6]) is also updated during the transaction. If the MPU writes to RCMD[4:0] before a
previously initiated read transaction is completed, the command is ignored. Therefore, the MPU must wait
for RCMD[4:2]=0 before proceeding to issue the next remote sensor read command.
If the CE is running (CE_E=1), the MPU must write RCMD[4:0] immediately after a CE_BUSY rising
edge. RCMD[4:0] must be written before the next rising edge of MUX_SYNC. Failure to do this can cause
incorrect data to be read.
The RCMD[4:0] field is divided into two sub-fields, COMMAND=RCMD[4:2] and PHASE=RCMD[1:0], as
shown in Table 4.

Notes:

operation. These are RCMD[4:2] = 001 and 010. Codes 000 and 101
are invalid and will be ignored if used. The remaining codes are
reserved and must not be used.
2. For the RCMD[1:0] control field, codes 01, 10 and 11 are valid and 00
is invalid and must not be used.
3. The specific phase (A, B or C) associated with each TMUXRn[2:0]
field, is determined by how the IADCn input pins are connected in the
meter design.
Table 5 shows the allowable combinations of values in RCMD[4:2] and TMUXRn[2:0], and the
corresponding data type and format sent back by the 71M6xx3 remote sensor and how the data is stored
in RMT_RD[15:8] and RMT_RD[7:0]. The MPU selects which of the three phases is read by asserting the
proper code in the RCMD[1:0] field, as shown in Table 4.

2.3 Digital Computation Engine (CE)
The CE, a dedicated 32-bit signal processor, performs the precision computations necessary to accurately
measure energy. The CE calculations and processes include:
Multiplication of each current sample with its associated voltage sample to obtain the energy per
sample (when multiplied by the constant sample time).
Frequency-insensitive delay cancellation on all channels (to compensate for the delay between
samples caused by the multiplexing scheme).
90° phase shifter (for VAR calculations).
Pulse generation.
Monitoring of the input signal frequency (for frequency and phase information).
Monitoring of the input signal amplitude (for sag detection).
Scaling of the processed samples based on calibration coefficients.
Scaling of samples based on temperature compensation information.
2.3.1 CE Program Memory
The CE program resides in flash memory. Common access to flash memory by the CE and MPU is
controlled by a memory share circuit. Each CE instruction word is two bytes long. Allocated flash space
for the CE program cannot exceed 4096 16-bit words (8 KB). The CE program counter begins a pass
through the CE code each time multiplexer state 0 begins. The code pass ends when a HALT instruction
is executed. For proper operation, the code pass must be completed before the multiplexer cycle ends.
The CE program must begin on a 1 KB boundary of the flash address. The I/O RAM control field
CE_LCTN[6/5:0] (I/O RAM 0x2109[6/5:0]) on the 71M6543F and CE_LCTN[6:0] (I/O RAM 0x2109[6:0]) on
the 71M6543G defines which 1 KB boundary contains the CE code. Thus, the first CE instruction is
located at 1024*CE_LCTN[5:0] on the 71M6543F and 1024*CE_LCTN[6:0] on the 71M6543G.
2.3.2 CE Data Memory
The CE and MPU share data memory (RAM). Common access to XRAM by the CE and MPU is controlled
by a memory share circuit. The CE can access up to 3 KB of the 5 KB data RAM (XRAM), i.e. from RAM
address 0x0000 to 0x0C00.
The XRAM can be accessed by the FIR filter block, the RTM circuit, the CE, and the MPU. Assigned time
slots are reserved for FIR and MPU, respectively, to prevent bus contention for XRAM data access by the CE.
The MPU reads and writes the XRAM shared between the CE and MPU as the primary means of data
communication between the two processors.
The CE is aided by support hardware to facilitate implementation of equations, pulse counters, and
accumulators. This hardware is controlled through I/O RAM field EQU[2:0] (equation assist, I/O RAM
0x2106[7:5]), bit DIO_PV (I/O RAM 0x2457[6]), bit DIO_PW (pulse count assist, I/O RAM 0x2457[7]), and
SUM_SAMPS[12:0] (accumulation assist, I/O RAM 0x2107[4:0] and 0x2108[7:0]).
The integration time for each energy output, when using standard CE code, is SUM_SAMPS[12:0] /2184.53
(with MUX_DIV[3:0] = 7, I/O RAM 0x2100[7:4] ). CE hardware issues the XFER_BUSY interrupt when the
accumulation is complete.
2.3.3 CE Communication with the MPU
The CE outputs six signals to the MPU: CE_BUSY, XFER_BUSY, XPULSE, YPULSE, WPULSE and
VPULSE. These are connected to the MPU interrupt service. CE_BUSY indicates that the CE is actively
processing data. This signal occurs once every multiplexer frame. XFER_BUSY indicates that the CE is
updating to the output region of the CE RAM, which occurs whenever an accumulation cycle has been
completed. Both, CE_BUSY and XFER_BUSY are cleared when the CE executes a HALT instruction.
XPULSE and YPULSE can be configured to interrupt the MPU and indicate zero crossings of the mains
voltage, sag failures, or other significant events. Additionally, these signals can be connected directly to DIO
pins to provide direct outputs from the CE. Interrupts associated with these signals always occur on the
leading edge.

26 v2
2.3.4 Meter Equations
The 71M6543 provides hardware assistance to the CE in order to support various meter equations. This
assistance is controlled through I/O RAM field EQU[2:0] (equation assist, I/O RAM 0x2106[7:5]). The
Compute Engine (CE) firmware configurations can implement the equations listed in Table 7. EQU[2:0]
specifies the equation to be used based on the meter configuration and on the number of phases used for
metering.

2.3.5 Real-Time Monitor (RTM)
The CE contains a Real-Time Monitor (RTM), which can be programmed to monitor four selectable XRAM
locations at full sample rate. The data from the four monitored locations are serially output to the TMUXOUT
pin via the digital output multiplexer at the beginning of each CE code pass. The RTM can be enabled and
disabled with RTM_E (I/O RAM 0x2106[1]). The RTM output clock is available on the TMUX2OUT pin. Each
RTM word is clocked out in 35 cycles and contains a leading flag bit. See Figure 8 for the RTM output
format. RTM is low when not in use.
Figure 8: RTM Timing
2.3.6 Pulse Generators
The 71M6543 provides four pulse generators, VPULSE, WPULSE, XPULSE and YPULSE. The XPULSE
and YPULSE generators are used by standard CE code to output CE status indicators, for example the
status of the sag detection, to DIO pins. All pulses can be configured to generate interrupts to the MPU.
The polarity of the pulses may be inverted with PLS_INV (I/O RAM 0x210C[0]). When this bit is set, the
pulses are active high, rather than the more usual active low. PLS_INV inverts all the pulse outputs.
The function of each pulse generator is determined by the CE code and the MPU code must configure the
corresponding pulse outputs in agreement with the CE code. For example, standard CE code produces a
mains zero-crossing pulse on XPULSE and a SAG pulse on YPULSE.

A common use of the zero-crossing pulses is to generate interrupts in order to drive real-time clock
software in places where the mains frequency is sufficiently accurate to do so and also to adjust for
crystal aging. A common use for the SAG pulse is to generate an interrupt that alerts the MPU when mains
power is about to fail, so that the MPU code can store accumulated energy and other data to EEPROM
before the V3P3SYS supply voltage actually drops.
2.3.6.1 XPULSE and YPULSE
Pulses generated by the CE may be exported to the XPULSE and YPULSE pulse output pins. Pins
SEGDIO6 and SEGDIO7 are used for these pulses, respectively. Generally, the XPULSE and YPULSE
outputs can be updated once on each pass of the CE code.
See 5.3 CE Interface Description on page 116 for details.
2.3.6.2 VPULSE and WPULSE
Referring to Figure 9, during each CE code pass the hardware stores exported WPULSE and VPULSE sign
bits in an 8-bit FIFO and outputs them at a specified interval. This permits the CE code to calculate the
VPULSE and WPULSE outputs at the beginning of its code pass and to rely on hardware to spread them
over the multiplexer frame. As seen in Figure 9, the FIFO is reset at the beginning of each multiplexer
frame. As also seen in Figure 9, the I/O RAM register PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] (I/O RAM 0x210B[7:0]) controls
the delay to the first pulse update and the interval between subsequent updates. The LSB of the
PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] register is equivalent to 4 CK_FIR cycles (CK_FIR is typically 4.9152MHz if PLL_FAST=1
and ADC_DIV=0, but other CK_FIR frequencies are possible; see the ADC_DIV definition in Table 70.) If
PLS_INTERVAL[7:0]=0, the FIFO is deactivated and the pulse outputs are updated immediately.
The MUX frame duration in units of CK_FIR clock cycles is given by:
If PLL_FAST=1:
MUX frame duration in CK_FIR cycles = [1 + (FIR_LEN+1) * (ADC_DIV+1) * (MUX_DIV)] * [150 / (ADC_DIV+1)]
If PLL_FAST=0:
MUX frame duration in CK_FIR cycles = [3 + 3*(FIR_LEN+1) * (ADC_DIV+1) * (MUX_DIV)] * [48 / (ADC_DIV+1)]
PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] in units of CK_FIR clock cycles is calculated by:
PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] = floor ( Mux frame duration in CK_FIR cycles / CE pulse updates per Mux frame / 4 )
Since the FIFO resets at the beginning of each multiplexer frame, the user must specify
PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] so that all of the possible pulse updates occurring in one CE execution are output
before the multiplexer frame completes. For instance, the 71M6543 CE code outputs six updates per
multiplexer interval, and if the multiplexer interval is 1950 CK_FIR clock cycles long, the ideal value for
the interval is 1950/6/4 = 81.25. However, if PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] = 82, the sixth output occurs too late and
would be lost. In this case, the proper value for PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] is 81 (i.e., round down the result).
Since one LSB of PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] is equal to 4 CK_FIR clock cycles, the pulse time interval TI in units of
CK_FIR clock cycles is:
TI = 4*PLS_INTERVAL[7:0]
If the FIFO is enabled (i.e., PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] ≠ 0), hardware also provides a maximum pulse width feature
in control register PLS_MAXWIDTH[7:0] (I/O RAM 0x210A) . By default, WPULSE and VPULSE are negative
pulses (i.e., low level pulses, designed to sink current through an LED). PLS_MAXWIDTH[7:0] determines the
maximum negative pulse width TMAX in units of CK_FIR clock cycles based on the pulse interval TI
according to the formula:
TMAX = (2 * PLS_MAXWIDTH[7:0] + 1) * TI
If PLS_MAXWIDTH = 255 or PLS_INTERVAL=0, no pulse width checking is performed, and the pulses
default to 50% duty cycle.
The polarity of the pulses may be inverted with the control bit PLS_INV (I/O RAM 0x210C[0]). When
PLS_INV is set, the pulses are active high. The default value for PLS_INV is zero, which selects active low
pulses.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
28 v2
The WPULSE and VPULSE pulse generator outputs are available on pins SEGDIO0/WPULSE and
SEGDIO1/VPULSE, respectively (pins 45 and 44). The pulses can also be output on OPT_TX pin 53
(see OPT_TXE[1:0], I/O RAM 0x2456[3:2] for details).
Figure 9. Pulse Generator FIFO Timing
2.3.7 CE Functional Overview
The ADC processes one sample per channel per multiplexer cycle. Figure 10 shows the timing of the
samples taken during one multiplexer cycle with MUX_DIV[3:0] = 7 (I/O RAM 0x2100[7:4]).
The number of samples processed during one accumulation cycle is controlled by the I/O RAM register
SUM_SAMPS[12:0] (0x2107[4:0] and 0x2108[7:0]). The integration time for each energy output is:
SUM_SAMPS[12:0] / 2184.53, where 2184.53 is the sample rate in Hz
For example, SUM_SAMPS[12:0] = 2184 establishes 2184 multiplexer cycles per accumulation cycle or
2184/2184.53 = 0.9998 seconds. After an accumulation cycle is completed, the XFER_BUSY interrupt
signals to the MPU that accumulated data are available. The slight difference between the nominal length
of the accumulation interval (1000 ms) and the actual length of 999.8 ms (0.025%) is accounted for in the
CE code and is of no practical consequence.

Figure 10: Samples from Multiplexer Cycle (Frame)
The end of each multiplexer cycle is signaled to the MPU by the CE_BUSY interrupt. At the end of each
multiplexer cycle, status information, such as sag data and the digitized input signal, is available to the MPU.
Figure 11: Accumulation Interval
Figure 11 shows the accumulation interval resulting from SUM_SAMPS[12:0] = 1819 (I/O RAM 0x2107[4:0]
and 0x2108[7:0]), consisting of 1819 samples of 457.8 µs each, followed by the XFER_BUSY interrupt.
The sampling in this example is applied to a 50 Hz signal. There is no correlation between the line signal
frequency and the choice of SUM_SAMPS[12:0]. Furthermore, sampling does not have to start when the
line voltage crosses the zero line, and the length of the accumulation interval need not be an integer
multiple of the signal cycles.

2.4 80515 MPU Core
The 71M6543 include an 80515 MPU (8-bit, 8051-compatible) that processes most instructions in one clock
cycle. Using a 4.9 MHz clock results in a processing throughput of 4.9 MIPS. The 80515 architecture
eliminates redundant bus states and implements parallel execution of fetch and execution phases. Normally, a
machine cycle is aligned with a memory fetch, therefore, most of the 1-byte instructions are performed in a
single machine cycle (MPU clock cycle). This leads to an 8x average performance improvement (in terms of
MIPS) over the Intel 8051 device running at the same clock frequency.
Table 8 shows the CKMPU frequency as a function of the MCK clock (19.6608 MHz) divided by the MPU
clock divider MPU_DIV[2:0] (I/O RAM 0x2200[2:0]). Actual processor clocking speed can be adjusted to the
total processing demand of the application (metering calculations, AMR management, memory
management, LCD driver management and I/O management) using MPU_DIV[2:0], as shown in Table 8.

Typical measurement and metering functions based on the results provided by the internal 32-bit compute
engine (CE) are available for the MPU as part of the Maxim demonstration code, which is provided to
help reduce the product design cycle.
2.4.1 Memory Organization and Addressing
The 80515 MPU core incorporates the Harvard architecture with separate code and data spaces. Memory
organization in the 80515 is similar to that of the industry standard 8051. There are three memory areas:
Program memory (Flash, shared by MPU and CE), external RAM (Data RAM, shared by the CE and MPU,
Configuration or I/O RAM), and internal data memory (Internal RAM). Table 9 shows the memory map.
Program Memory
The 80515 can address up to 64 KB of program memory space (0x0000 to 0xFFFF). Program memory is
read when the MPU fetches instructions or performs a MOVC operation.
After reset, the MPU starts program execution from program memory location 0x0000. The lower part of
the program memory includes reset and interrupt vectors. The interrupt vectors are spaced at 8-byte
intervals, starting from 0x0003.
MPU External Data Memory (XRAM)
Both internal and external memory is physically located on the 71M6543 device. The external memory
referred to in this documentation is only external to the 80515 MPU core.
5 KB of RAM starting at address 0x0000 is shared by the CE and MPU. The CE normally uses the first
1 KB, leaving 4 KB for the MPU. Different versions of the CE code use varying amounts. Consult the
documentation for the specific code version being used for the exact limit.
To change the slot assignments established by MUXn_SEL[3:0], first set MUX_DIV[3:0] to zero,
then change the MUXn_SEL[3:0] slot assignments, and finally set MUX_DIV[3:0] to the number of
active MUX frame slots.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
v2 31
The 80515 writes into external data memory when the MPU executes a MOVX @Ri,A or MOVX
@DPTR,A instruction. The MPU reads external data memory by executing a MOVX A,@Ri or MOVX
A,@DPTR instruction (PDATA, SFR 0xBF, provides the upper 8 bytes for the MOVX A,@Ri instruction).

MOVX Addressing
There are two types of instructions differing in whether they provide an 8-bit or 16-bit indirect address to
the external data RAM.
In the first type, MOVX A,@Ri, the contents of R0 or R1 in the current register bank provide the eight
lower-ordered bits of address. The eight high-ordered bits of the address are specified with the PDATA
SFR. This method allows the user paged access (256 pages of 256 bytes each) to all ranges of the
external data RAM.
In the second type of MOVX instruction, MOVX A,@DPTR, the data pointer generates a 16-bit address.
This form is faster and more efficient when accessing very large data arrays (up to 64 KB), since no
additional instructions are needed to set up the eight high ordered bits of the address.
It is possible to mix the two MOVX types. This provides the user with four separate data pointers, two with
direct access and two with paged access, to the entire 64 KB of external memory range.
Dual Data Pointer
The Dual Data Pointer accelerates the block moves of data. The standard DPTR is a 16-bit register that is
used to address external memory or peripherals. In the 80515 core, the standard data pointer is called
DPTR, the second data pointer is called DPTR1. The data pointer select bit, located in the LSB of the DPS
register (DPS[0], SFR 0x92), chooses the active pointer. DPTR is selected when DPS[0] = 0 and DPTR1 is
selected when DPS[0] = 1.
The user switches between pointers by toggling the LSB of the DPS register. The values in the data pointers
are not affected by the LSB of the DPS register. All DPTR related instructions use the currently selected
DPTR for any activity.
The second data pointer may not be supported by certain compilers.
DPTR1 is useful for copy routines, where it can make the inner loop of the routine two instructions faster
compared to the reloading of DPTR from registers. Any interrupt routine using DPTR1 must save and
restore DPS, DPTR and DPTR1, which increases stack usage and slows down interrupt latency.
By selecting the Evatronics R80515 core in the Keil compiler project settings and by using the compiler
directive “MODC2”, dual data pointers are enabled in certain library routines.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
32 v2
An alternative data pointer is available in the form of the PDATA register (SFR 0xBF), sometimes referred
to as USR2). It defines the high byte of a 16-bit address when reading or writing XDATA with the instruction
MOVX A,@Ri or MOVX @Ri,A.
Internal Data Memory Map and Access
The Internal data memory provides 256 bytes (0x00 to 0xFF) of data memory. The internal data memory
address is always 1 byte wide. Table 10 shows the internal data memory map.
The Special Function Registers (SFR) occupy the upper 128 bytes. The SFR area of internal data memory
is available only by direct addressing. Indirect addressing of this area accesses the upper 128 bytes of
Internal RAM. The lower 128 bytes contain working registers and bit addressable memory. The lower 32
bytes form four banks of eight registers (R0-R7). Two bits on the program memory status word (PSW, SFR
0xD0 ) select which bank is in use. The next 16 bytes form a block of bit addressable memory space at
addresses 0x00-0x7F. All of the bytes in the lower 128 bytes are accessible through direct or indirect
addressing.

Only a few addresses in the SFR memory space are occupied, the others are not implemented. A read
access to unimplemented addresses returns undefined data, while a write access has no effect. SFRs
specific to the 71M6543 are shown in bold print on a gray field. The registers at 0x80, 0x88, 0x90, etc.,

Accumulator (ACC, A, SFR 0x E0):
ACC is the accumulator register. Most instructions use the accumulator to hold the operand. The mnemonics
for accumulator-specific instructions refer to accumulator as A, not ACC.
B Register (SFR 0xF0):
The B register is used during multiply and divide instructions. It can also be used as a scratch-pad register to
hold temporary data.
Program Status Word (PSW, SFR 0xD0):
This register contains various flags and control bits for the selection of the register banks (see Table 13).

Stack Pointer (SP, SFR 0x81):
The stack pointer is a 1-byte register initialized to 0x07 after reset. This register is incremented before
PUSH and CALL instructions, causing the stack to begin at location 0x08.
Data Pointer:
The data pointers (DPTR and DPRT1) are 2 bytes wide. The lower part is DPL (SFR 0x82) and DPL1 (SFR
0x84), respectively. The highest is DPH (SFR 0x83) and DPH1 (SFR 0x85), respectively. The data pointers
can be loaded as two registers (e.g. MOV DPL,#data8). They are generally used to access external code
or data space (e.g. MOVC A,@A+DPTR or MOVX A,@DPTR respectively).
Program Counter:
The program counter (PC) is 2 bytes wide and initialized to 0x0000 after reset. This register is incremented
when fetching operation code or when operating on data from program memory.
Port Registers:
SEGDIO0 through SEGDIO15 are controlled by Special Function Registers P0, P1, P2, and P3 as shown
in Table 14. Above SEGDIO15, the LCD_SEGDIOn[ ] registers in I/O RAM are used. Since the direction
bits are contained in the upper nibble of each SFR Pn register and the DIO bits are contained in the lower
nibble, it is possible to configure the direction of a given DIO pin and set its output value with a single
write operation, thus facilitating the implementation of bit-banged interfaces. Writing a 1 to a DIO_DIR
bit configures the corresponding DIO as an output, while writing a 0 configures it as an input. Writing a 1
to a DIO bit causes the corresponding pin to be at high level (V3P3), while writing a 0 causes the
corresponding pin to be held at a low level (GND). See 2.5.10 Digital I/O for additional details.

All DIO ports on the chip are bi-directional. Each of them consists of a latch (SFR P0 to P3), an output
driver and an input buffer, therefore the MPU can output or read data through any of these ports. Even if
a DIO pin is configured as an output, the state of the pin can still be read by the MPU, for example when
counting pulses issued via DIO pins that are under CE control.
At power-up SEGDIO0-15 are configured as outputs, but the pins are in a high-impedance state
because PORT_E = 0 (I/O RAM 0x270C[5]). Host firmware should first configure SEGDIO0-15 to
the desired state, then set PORT_E = 1 to enable the function.
Clock Stretching (CKCON[2:0], SFR 0x8E)
The CKCON[2:0] field defines the stretch memory cycles that are used for MOVX instructions when
accessing external peripherals. The practical value of this register for the 71M6543 is to guarantee access
to XRAM between CE, MPU, and SPI. The default setting of CKCON[2:0] (001) should be changed to 000
for best performance.
Table 15 shows how the signals of the External Memory Interface change when stretch values are set
from 0 to 7. The widths of the signals are counted in MPU clock cycles. The post-reset state of the
CKCON[2:0] field (001), which is shown in bold in the table, performs the MOVX instructions with a
stretch value equal to 1.

2.4.4 Instruction Set
All instructions of the generic 8051 microcontroller are supported. A complete list of the instruction set
and of the associated op-codes is contained in the 71M654x Software User’s Guide (SUG).
2.4.5 UARTs
The 71M6543 include a UART (UART0) that can be programmed to communicate with a variety of AMR
modules and other external devices. A second UART (UART1) is connected to the optical port, as
described in the 2.5.9 UART and Optical Interface on page 56.
The UARTs are dedicated 2-wire serial interfaces, which can communicate with an external host processor
at up to 38,400 bits/s (with MPU clock = 1.2288 MHz). The operation of the RX and TX UART0 pins is as
follows:
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
36 v2
UART0 RX: Serial input data are applied at this pin. Conforming to RS-232 standard, the bytes are
input LSB first.
UART0 TX: This pin is used to output the serial data. The bytes are output LSB first.
The 71M6543 has several UART-related registers for the control and buffering of serial data.
A single SFR register serves as both the transmit buffer and receive buffer (S0BUF, SFR 0x99 for UART0
and S1BUF, SFR 0x9C for UART1). When written by the MPU, SxBUF acts as the transmit buffer, and
when read by the MPU, it acts as the receive buffer. Writing data to the transmit buffer starts the
transmission by the associated UART. Received data are available by reading from the receive buffer.
Both UARTs can simultaneously transmit and receive data.
WDCON[7] (SFR 0xD8) selects whether timer 1 or the internal baud rate generator is used. All UART
transfers are programmable for parity enable, parity, 2 stop bits/1 stop bit and XON/XOFF options for
variable communication baud rates from 300 to 38400 bps. Table 16 shows how the baud rates are
calculated. Table 17 shows the selectable UART operation modes.

(S0RELL, S0RELH, S1RELL, S1RELH are SFR 0xAA, SFR 0xBA, SFR 0x9D and SFR 0xBB, respectively) SMOD
is the SMOD bit in the SFR PCON register (SFR 0x87). TH1 (SFR 0x8D) is the high byte of timer 1.

Parity of serial data is available through the P flag of the accumulator. 7-bit serial modes with
parity, such as those used by the FLAG protocol, can be simulated by setting and reading bit 7 of
8-bit output data. 7-bit serial modes without parity can be simulated by setting bit 7 to a constant 1.
8-bit serial modes with parity can be simulated by setting and reading the 9th bit, using the control
bits TB80 (S0CON[3]) and TB81 (S1CON[3]) in the S0CON (SFR 0x98) and S1CON (SFR 0x9B) registers
for transmit and RB81 (S1CON[2]) for receive operations.
All supported operation modes use oversampling for the incoming bit stream when receiving data. Each
bit is sampled three times at the projected middle of the bit duration. This technique allows for deviations
of the received baud rate from nominal of up to 3.5%.
The feature of receiving 9 bits (Mode 3 for UART0, Mode A for UART1) can be used as handshake signals
for inter-processor communication in multi-processor systems. In this case, the slave processors have bit
SM20 (S0CON[5]) for UART0, or SM21 (S1CON[5] for UART1, set to 1. When the master processor outputs
the slave’s address, it sets the 9th bit to 1, causing a serial port receive interrupt in all the slaves. The slave
processors compare the received byte with their address. If there is a match, the addressed slave clears
SM20 or SM21 and receive the rest of the message. The rest of the slaves ignore the message. After
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
v2 37
addressing the slave, the host outputs the rest of the message with the 9th bit set to 0, so no additional
serial port receive interrupts is generated.
UART Control Registers:
The functions of UART0 and UART1 depend on the setting of the Serial Port Control Registers S0CON
and S1CON shown in Table 18 and Table 19, respectively, and the PCON register shown in Table 20.
Since the TI0, RI0, TI1 and RI1 bits are in an SFR bit addressable byte, common practice
would be to clear them with a bit operation, but this must be avoided. The hardware implements
bit operations as a byte wide read-modify-write hardware macro. If an interrupt occurs after
the read, but before the write, its flag is cleared unintentionally.
The proper way to clear these flag bits is to write a byte mask consisting of all ones except
for a zero in the location of the bit to be cleared. The flag bits are configured in hardware to
ignore ones written to them.

2.4.6 Timers and Counters
The 80515 has two 16-bit timer/counter registers: Timer 0 and Timer 1. These registers can be configured
for counter or timer operations.
In timer mode, the register is incremented every machine cycle, i.e. it counts up once for every 12 periods of
the MPU clock. In counter mode, the register is incremented when the falling edge is observed at the
corresponding input signal T0 or T1 (T0 and T1 are the timer gating inputs derived from certain DIO pins, see
2.5.10 Digital I/O). Since it takes 2 machine cycles to recognize a 1-to-0 event, the maximum input count rate
is 1/2 of the clock frequency (CKMPU). There are no restrictions on the duty cycle, however to ensure proper
recognition of the 0 or 1 state, an input should be stable for at least 1 machine cycle.
Four operating modes can be selected for Timer 0 and Timer 1, as shown in Table 21 and Table 22. The
TMOD (SFR 0x89) register, shown in
Table 23, is used to select the appropriate mode. The timer/counter operation is controlled by the TCON
(SFR 0x88) register, which is shown in Table 24. Bits TR1 (TCON[6]) and TR0 (TCON[4]) in the TCON
register start their associated timers when set.

counter/timer 0 or 1 for counter/timer 1.
1 1 Mode 3
If Timer 1 M1 and M0 bits are set to 1, Timer 1 stops.
If Timer 0 M1 and M0 bits are set to 1, Timer 0 acts as two independent
8-bit Timer/Counters.
In Mode 3, TL0 is affected by TR0 and gate control bits, and sets the TF0 flag on overflow, while TH0
is affected by the TR1 bit, and the TF1 flag is set on overflow.

2.4.7 WD Timer (Software Watchdog Timer)
There is no internal software watchdog timer. Use the standard hardware watchdog timer instead (see
2.5.13 Hardware Watchdog Timer).
2.4.8 Interrupts
The 80515 provides 11 interrupt sources with four priority levels. Each source has its own interrupt request
flag(s) located in a special function register (TCON, IRCON, and SCON). Each interrupt requested by the
corresponding flag can be individually enabled or disabled by the enable bits in IEN0 (SFR 0xA8), IEN1
(SFR 0xB8), and IEN2 (SFR 0x9A). Figure 12 shows the device interrupt structure.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
40 v2
Referring to Figure 12, interrupt sources can originate from within the 80515 MPU core (referred to as
Internal Sources) or can originate from other parts of the 71M6543 SoC (referred to as External Sources).
There are seven external interrupt sources, as seen in the leftmost part of Figure 12, and in Table 25 and
Table 26 (i.e., EX0-EX6).
Interrupt Overview
When an interrupt occurs, the MPU vectors to the predetermined address as shown in Table 37. Once
the interrupt service has begun, it can be interrupted only by a higher priority interrupt. The interrupt service
is terminated by a return from instruction, RETI. When an RETI is performed, the processor returns to the
instruction that would have been next when the interrupt occurred.
When the interrupt condition occurs, the processor also indicates this by setting a flag bit. This bit is set
regardless of whether the interrupt is enabled or disabled. Each interrupt flag is sampled once per
machine cycle, then samples are polled by the hardware. If the sample indicates a pending interrupt when
the interrupt is enabled, then the interrupt request flag is set. On the next instruction cycle, the interrupt is
acknowledged by hardware forcing an LCALL to the appropriate vector address, if the following conditions
are met:
No interrupt of equal or higher priority is already in progress.
An instruction is currently being executed and is not completed.
The instruction in progress is not RETI or any write access to the registers IEN0, IEN1, IEN2, IP0 or IP1.
Special Function Registers for Interrupts
The following SFR registers control the interrupt functions:

External MPU Interrupts
The seven external interrupts are the interrupts external to the 80515 core, i.e. signals that originate in
other parts of the 71M6543, for example the CE, DIO, RTC, or EEPROM interface.
The external interrupts are connected as shown in Table 31. The polarity of interrupts 2 and 3 is
programmable in the MPU via the I3FR and I2FR bits in T2CON (SFR 0xC8). Interrupts 2 and 3 should
be programmed for falling sensitivity (I3FR = I2FR = 0). The generic 8051 MPU literature states that
interrupts 4 through 6 are defined as rising-edge sensitive. Thus, the hardware signals attached to
interrupts 5 and 6 are inverted to achieve the edge polarity shown in Table 31.

External interrupt 0 and 1 can be mapped to pins on the device using DIO resource maps. See 2.5.10
Digital I/O for more information.
SFR enable bits must be set to permit any of these interrupts to occur. Likewise, each interrupt has its own
flag bit, which is set by the interrupt hardware, and reset by the MPU interrupt handler. XFER_BUSY,
RTC_1SEC, RTC_1MIN, RTC_T, SPI, PLLRISE and PLLFALL have their own enable and flag bits in
addition to the interrupt 6, 4 and enable and flag bits (see Table 32: Interrupt Enable and Flag Bits).
IE0 through IEX6 are cleared automatically when the hardware vectors to the interrupt handler.
The other flags, IE_XFER through IE_VPULSE, are cleared by writing a zero to them.
Since these bits are in an SFR bit addressable byte, common practice would be to clear them
with a bit operation, but this must be avoided. The hardware implements bit operations as a
byte wide read-modify-write hardware macro. If an interrupt occurs after the read, but before
the write, its flag is cleared unintentionally.
The proper way to clear the flag bits is to write a byte mask consisting of all ones except for a
zero in the location of the bit to be cleared. The flag bits are configured in hardware to ignore
ones written to them.

Each group of interrupt sources can be programmed individually to one of four priority levels (as shown in
Table 34) by setting or clearing one bit in the SFR interrupt priority register IP0 (SFR 0xA9) and one in
IP1(SFR 0xB9) (Table 35). If requests of the same priority level are received simultaneously, an internal
polling sequence as shown in Table 36 determines which request is serviced first.
Changing interrupt priorities while interrupts are enabled can easily cause software defects. It is best
to set the interrupt priority registers only once during initialization before interrupts are enabled.

2.5 On-Chip Resources
2.5.1 Physical Memory
2.5.1.1 Flash Memory
The device includes 64 KB (71M6543F) or 128 KB (71M6543G) of on-chip flash memory. The flash
memory primarily contains MPU and CE program code. It also contains images of the CE RAM and I/O
RAM. On power-up, before enabling the CE, the MPU copies these images to their respective locations.
Flash space allocated for the CE program is limited to 4096 16-bit words (8 KB). The CE program must
begin on a 1-KB boundary of the flash address space. The CE_LCTN[6/5:0] (I/O RAM 0x2109[5:0]) field
on the 71M6543F and the CE_LCTN[6:0] (I/O RAM 0x2109[6:0]) field on the 71M6543G define which 1-KB
boundary contains the CE code. Thus, the first CE instruction is located at 1024*CE_LCTN[6/5:0] on the
71M6543F and at 1024*CE_LCTN[6:0] on the 71M6543G.
Flash memory can be accessed by the MPU, the CE, and by the SPI interface (R/W).

Access only when SFM is invoked (MPU halted).
Flash Write Procedures
If the FLSH_UNLOCK[3:0] (I/O RAM 0x2702[7:4]) key is correctly programmed, the MPU may write to the
flash memory. This is one of the non-volatile storage options available to the user in addition to external
EEPROM.
The flash program write enable bit, FLSH_PSTWR (SFR 0xB2[0]), differentiates 80515 data store instructions
(MOVX@DPTR,A) between Flash and XRAM writes. This bit is automatically cleared by hardware after
each byte write operation. Write operations to this bit are inhibited when interrupts are enabled.
If the CE is enabled (CE_E = 1, I/O RAM 0x2106[0]), flash write operations must not be attempted unless
FLSH_PSTWR is set. This bit enables the “posted flash write” capability. FLSH_PSTWR has no effect when
CE_E = 0). When CE_E = 1, however, FLSH_PSTWR delays a flash write until the time interval between
the CE code passes. During this delay time, the FLSH_PEND (SFR 0xB2[3]) bit is high, and the MPU
continues to execute commands. When the CE code pass ends (CE_BUSY falls), the FLSH_PEND bit
falls and the write operation occurs. The MPU can query the FLSH_PEND bit to determine when the
write operation has been completed. While FLSH_PEND = 1, further flash write requests are ignored.
Updating Individual Bytes in Flash Memory
The original state of a flash byte is 0xFF (all bits are 1). Once a value other than 0xFF is written to a flash
memory cell, overwriting with a different value usually requires that the cell be erased first. Since cells
cannot be erased individually, the page has to be first copied to RAM, followed by a page erase. After
this, the page can be updated in RAM and then written back to the flash memory.
Flash Erase Procedures
Flash erasure is initiated by writing a specific data pattern to specific SFR registers in the proper sequence.
These special pattern/sequence requirements prevent inadvertent erasure of the flash memory.
The mass erase sequence is:
Write 1 to the FLSH_MEEN bit (SFR 0xB2[1]).
Write the pattern 0xAA to the FLSH_ERASE (SFR 0x94) register.
The mass erase cycle can only be initiated when the ICE port is enabled.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
v2 47
The page erase sequence is:
Write the page address to FLSH_PGADR[5:0] (SFR 0xB7[7:2]).
Write the pattern 0x55 to the FLSH_ERASE register (SFR 0x94).
Bank-Switching in the 71M6543G
The 128 KB program memory in the 71M6543G consists of a fixed lower bank of 32 KB, addressable at
0x0000 to 0x7FFF plus an upper banked area of 32 KB, addressable at 0x8000 to 0xFFFF. The I/O RAM
register FL_BANK[1:0] (SFR 0xB6[1:0]) is used to switch four memory banks of 32 KB each into the
address range from 0x8000 to 0xFFFF. Note that when FL_BANK[1:0] (SFR 0xB6[1:0]) = 0, the upper
bank is the same as the lower bank.

In the 71M6543G, the address that the FLSH_PGADR[6:0] (SFR 0xB7[7:1]) points to in the program
address space can reference different flash memory locations, depending on the setting of the
FL_BANK[1:0] (SFR 0xB6[1:0]) bits. The CE_LCTN[6:0] (I/O RAM 0x2109[6:0]) field on the 71M6543G on
the other hand, points directly to a location in the flash memory are not affected by the FL_BANK[1:0]
(SFR 0xB6[1:0]) bits
Program Security
When enabled, the security feature limits the ICE to global flash erase operations only. All other ICE
operations, such as reading via the SPI or ICE port, are blocked. This guarantees the security of the user’s
MPU and CE program code. Security is enabled by MPU code that is executed in a 64 CKMPU cycle
pre-boot interval before the primary boot sequence begins. Once security is enabled, the only way to
disable it is to perform a global erase of the flash, followed by a chip reset.
The first 64 cycles of the MPU boot code are called the pre-boot phase because during this phase the
ICE is inhibited. A read-only status bit, PREBOOT (SFR 0xB2[7]), identifies these cycles to the MPU.
Upon completion of pre-boot, the ICE can be enabled and is permitted to take control of the MPU.
The security enable bit, SECURE (SFR 0xB2[6]), is reset whenever the chip is reset. Hardware associated
with the bit allows only ones to be written to it. Thus, pre-boot code may set SECURE to enable the security
feature but may not reset it. Once SECURE is set, the pre-boot and CE code are protected from erasure,
and no external read of program code is possible.
Specifically, when the SECURE bit is set, the following applies:
The ICE is limited to bulk flash erase only.
Page zero of flash memory, the preferred location for the user’s pre-boot code, may not be
page-erased by either MPU or ICE. Page zero may only be erased with global flash erase.
Write operations to page zero, whether by MPU or ICE are inhibited.
The 71M6543 also includes hardware to protect against unintentional Flash write and erase. To enable flash
write and erase operations, a 4-bit hardware key that must be written to the FLSH_UNLOCK[3:0] field. The
key is the binary number ‘0010’. If FLSH_UNLOCK[3:0] is not ‘0010’, the Flash erase and write operation is
inhibited by hardware. Proper operation of this security key requires that there be no firmware function that
writes ‘0010’ to FLSH_UNLOCK[3:0]. The key should be written by the external SPI master, in the case of
SPI flash programming (SFM mode), or through the ICE interface in the case of ICE flash programming.
When a boot loader is used, the key should be sent to the boot load code which then writes it to
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
48 v2
FLSH_UNLOCK[3:0]. FLSH_UNLOCK[3:0] is not automatically reset. It should be cleared when the SPI or
ICE has finished changing the Flash. Table 40 summarizes the I/O RAM registers used for flash security.

0x2109[6:0]) on the 71M6543G. Also inhibits
the read of flash via the ICE and SPI ports.
SPI Flash Mode
In normal operation, the SPI slave interface cannot read or write the flash memory. However, the
71M6543 contains a Special Flash Mode (SFM) that facilitates initial (production) programming of the
flash memory. When the 71M6543 is in SFM mode, the SPI interface can erase, read, and write the
flash. Other memory elements such as XRAM and I/O RAM are not accessible to the SPI in this mode.
In order to protect the flash contents, several operations are required before the SFM mode is successfully
invoked.
When the 71M6543G is operating SFM, SPI single-byte transactions are used to write to FL_BANK[1:0]
(SFR 0xB6[1:0]). During an SPI single-byte transaction, SPI_CMD[1:0] will over-write the contents of
FL_BANK[1:0] (SFR 0xB6[1:0]). This will allow for access of the entire 128 KB flash memory while
operating in SFM.
If the SPI port is used for code updates (in lieu of a programmer that uses the ICE port), then a code that
disables the flash access via SPI can potentially lock out flash program updates.
Details on the SFM can be found in 2.5.12 SPI Slave Port.
2.5.1.2 MPU/CE RAM
The 71M6543 includes 5 KB of static RAM memory on-chip (XRAM) plus 256 bytes of internal RAM in the
MPU core. The 5KB of static RAM are used for data storage by both MPU and CE and for the
communication between MPU and CE.
2.5.1.3 I/O RAM (Configuration RAM)
The I/O RAM can be seen as a series of hardware registers that control basic hardware functions. I/O
RAM address space starts at 0x2000. The registers of the I/O RAM are listed in Table 68.
The 71M6543 includes 128 bytes non-volatile RAM memory on-chip in the I/O RAM address space
(addresses 0x2800 to 0x287F). This memory section is supported by the voltage applied at VBAT_RTC,
and the data in it are preserved in BRN, LCD, and SLP modes as long as the voltage at VBAT_RTC is
within specification.
2.5.2 Oscillator
The 71M6543 oscillator drives a standard 32.768 kHz watch crystal. This type of crystal is accurate and
does not require a high-current oscillator circuit. The oscillator has been designed specifically to handle
watch crystals and is compatible with their high impedance and limited power handling capability. The
oscillator power dissipation is very low to maximize the lifetime of any battery attached to VBAT_RTC.
Oscillator calibration can improve the accuracy of both the RTC and metering. Refer to 2.5.4, Real-Time
Clock (RTC) for more information.
The oscillator is powered from the V3P3SYS pin or from the VBAT_RTC pin, depending on the V3OK
internal bit (i.e., V3OK = 1 if V3P3SYS 2.8 VDC and V3OK = 0 if V3P3SYS < 2.8 VDC). The oscillator
requires approximately 100 nA, which is negligible compared to the internal leakage of a battery.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
v2 49
Although the oscillator may appear to work when VBAT is not connected, this mode of operation is not re-
commended.
If VBAT_RTC is connected to a drained battery or disconnected, a battery test that sets
TEMP_BAT may drain the supply connected to VBAT_RTC and cause the oscillator to stop. A
stopped oscillator may force the device to reset. Therefore, an unexpected reset during a battery
test should be interpreted as a battery failure.
2.5.3 PLL and Internal Clocks
Timing for the device is derived from the 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator output that is multiplied by a PLL by
600 to obtain 19.660800 MHz, the master clock (MCK). All on-chip timing, except for the RTC clock, is
derived from MCK. Table 41 provides a summary of the clock functions and their controls.
The two general-purpose counter/timers contained in the MPU are controlled by CKMPU (see 2.4.6
Timers and Counters).
The master clock can be boosted to 19.66 MHz by setting the PLL_FAST bit = 1 (I/O RAM 0x2200[4]) and
can be reduced to 6.29 MHz by PLL_FAST = 0. The MPU clock frequency CKMPU is determined by
another divider controlled by the I/O RAM control field MPU_DIV[2:0] (I/O RAM 0x2200[2:0]) and can be
set to MCK*2-(MPU_DIV+2) where MPU_DIV[2:0] may vary from 0 to 4. When the ICE_E pin is high, the
circuit also generates the 9.83 MHz clock for use by the emulator.
The PLL is only turned off in SLP mode or in LCD mode when LCD_BSTE is disabled. The LCD_BSTE
value depends on the setting of the LCD_VMODE [1:0] field (see Table 51).
When the part is waking up from SLP or LCD modes, the PLL is turned on in 6.29 MHz mode, and the
PLL frequency is not be accurate until the PLL_OK (SFR 0xF9[4]) flag rises. Due to potential overshoot, the
MPU should not change the value of PLL_FAST until PLL_OK is true.

The RTC is driven directly by the crystal oscillator and is powered by either the V3P3SYS pin or the
VBAT_RTC pin, depending on the V3OK internal bit. The RTC consists of a counter chain and output
registers. The counter chain consists of registers for seconds, minutes, hours, day of week, day of month,
month, and year. The chain registers are supported by a shadow register that facilitates read and write
operations.
Table 42 shows the I/O RAM registers for accessing the RTC.

2.5.4.2 Accessing the RTC
Two bits, RTC_RD (I/O RAM 0x2890[6]) and RTC_WR (I/O RAM 0x2890[7]), control the behavior of the
shadow register.
When RTC_RD is low, the shadow register is updated by the RTC after each two milliseconds. When
RTC_RD is high, this update is halted and the shadow register contents become stationary and are suitable
to be read by the MPU. Thus, when the MPU wishes to read the RTC, it freezes the shadow register by
setting the RTC_RD bit, reads the shadow register, and then lowers the RTC_RD bit to let updates to the
shadow register resume. Since the RTC clock is only 500 Hz, there may be a delay of approximately
2 ms from when the RTC_RD bit is lowered until the shadow register receives its first update. Reads to
RTC_RD continues to return a one until the first shadow update occurs.
When RTC_WR is high, the update of the shadow register is also inhibited. During this time, the MPU may
overwrite the contents of the shadow register. When RTC_WR is lowered, the shadow register is written into
the RTC counter on the next 500Hz RTC clock. A ‘change’ bit is included for each word in the shadow
register to ensure that only programmed words are updated when the MPU writes a zero to RTC_WR.
Reads of RTC_WR returns one until the counter has actually been updated by the register.
The sub-second register of the RTC, RTC_SBSC (I/O RAM 0x2892), can be read by the MPU after the one
second interrupt and before reaching the next one second boundary. RTC_SBSC contains the count since
the last full second, in 1/128 second nominal clock periods, until the next one-second boundary. When the
RST_SUBSEC bit is written, the SUBSEC counter is restarted, counting from 0 to 127. Reading and resetting
the sub-second counter can be used as part of an algorithm to accurately set the RTC.
The RTC is capable of processing leap years. Each counter has its own output register. The RTC chain
registers are not be affected by the reset pin, watchdog timer resets, or by transitions between the battery
modes and mission mode.

2.5.4.3 RTC Rate Control
The 71M6543 has two rate adjustment mechanisms:
The first rate adjustment mechanism is an analog rate adjustment, using the I/O RAM register
RTCA_ADJ[6:0], that trims the crystal load capacitance.
The second rate adjustment mechanism is a digital rate adjust that affects the way the clock frequency
is processed in the RTC.
Setting RTCA_ADJ[6:0] to 00 minimizes the load capacitance, maximizing the oscillator frequency. Setting
RTCA_ADJ[6:0] to 0x7F maximizes the load capacitance, minimizing the oscillator frequency. The adjustable
capacitance is approximately:
pF
ADJRTCA
C
ADJ
5.16
128
_=
The precise amount of adjustment depends on the crystal properties, the PCB layout and the value of the
external crystal capacitors (see CXS and CXS in Table 87). The adjustment may occur at any time, and the
resulting clock frequency should be measured over a one-second interval.
The second rate adjustment is digital, and can be used to adjust the clock rate up to ±988ppm, with a
resolution of 3.8 ppm. The rate adjustment is implemented starting at the next second-boundary
following the adjustment. Since the LSB (define first) results in an adjustment every four seconds, the
frequency should be measured over an interval that is a multiple of four seconds.
The clock rate is adjusted by writing the appropriate values to RTC_P[16:0] (I/O RAM 0x289B[2:0], 0x289C,
0x289D[7:2]) and RTC_Q[1:0] (I/O RAM 0x289D[1:0]). Updates to RTC rate adjust registers, RTC_P and
RTC_Q, are done through the shadow register described above. The new values are loaded into the
counters when RTC_WR (I/O RAM 0x2890[7]) is lowered.
The default frequency is 32,768 RTCLK cycles per second. To shift the clock frequency by ppm,
RTC_P and RTC_Q are calculated using the following equation:

For example, for a shift of -988 ppm, 4 RTC_P + RTC_Q = 262403 = 0x40103. RTC_P[16:0] = 0x10040,
(I/O RAM 0x289B[2:0], 0x289C, 0x289D[7:2]) and RTC_Q[1:0] = 0x03 (I/O RAM 0x289D[1:0]. The default
values of RTC_P[16:0] and RTC_Q[1:0], corresponding to zero adjustment, are 0x10000 and 0x0, respectively.
Two settings for the TMUX2OUT test pin, PULSE_1S and PULSE_4S, are available for measuring and
calibrating the RTC clock frequency. These are waveforms of approximately 25% duty cycle with 1s or 4s
period.
Default values for RTCA_ADJ[6:0], RTC_P[16:0] and RTC_Q[1:0] should be nominal values, at
the center of the adjustment range. Un-calibrated extreme values (zero, for example) can cause
incorrect operation.
If the crystal temperature coefficient is known, the MPU can integrate temperature and correct the RTC
time as necessary. Alternatively, the characteristics can be loaded into an NV RAM and the OSC_COMP
(I/O RAM 0x28A0[5]) bit may be set. In this case, the oscillator is adjusted automatically, even in SLP
mode. See 2.5.4.4 RTC Temperature Compensation for details.

2.5.4.4 RTC Temperature Compensation
The 71M6543 can be configured to regularly measure die temperature, including in SLP and LCD modes
and while the MPU is halted. If enabled by OSC_COMP, this temperature information is automatically
used to correct for the temperature variation of the crystal. A table lookup method is used.

time the strobe is cleared and LKPADDR[6:0] is
incremented if LKPAUTOI is set.
Referring to Figure 13 the table lookup method uses the 10-bits plus sign-bit value in STEMP[10:0]
right-shifted by two bits to obtain an 8-bit plus sign value (i.e., NV RAM Address = STEMP[10:0]/4). A
limiter ensures that the resulting look-up address is in the 6-bit plus sign range of -64 to +63 (decimal).
The 8-bit NV RAM content pointed to by the address is added as a 2’s complement value to 0x40000,
the nominal value of 4*RTC_P[16:0] + RTC_Q[1:0].
Refer to 2.5.4.3 RTC Rate Control for information on the rate adjustments performed by registers
RTC_P[16:0] and RTC_Q[1:0]. The 8-bit values loaded in to NV RAM must be scaled correctly to produce
rate adjustments that are consistent with the equations given in 2.5.4.3 RTC Rate Control for RTC_P[16:0]
and RTC_Q[1:0]. Note that the sum of the looked-up 8-bit 2’s complement value and 0x40000 form a 19-
bit value, which is equal to 4*RTC_P[16:0] + RTC_Q[1:0], as shown in Figure 13. The output of the
Temperature Compensation is automatically loaded into the RTC_P[16:0] and RTC_Q[1:0] locations after
each look-up and summation operation.

v2 53
For proper operation, the MPU has to load the lookup table with values that reflect the crystal properties
with respect to temperature, which is typically done once during initialization. Since the lookup table is
not directly addressable, the MPU uses the following procedure to load the NV RAM table:
1. Set the LKPAUTOI bit (I/O RAM 0x2887[7]) to enable address auto-increment.
2. Write zero into the I/O RAM register LKPADDR[6:0] (I/O RAM 0x2887[6:0]).
3. Write the 8-bit datum into I/O RAM register LKPDAT (I/O RAM 0x2888).
4. Set the LKP_WR bit (I/O RAM 0x2889[0]) to write the 8-bit datum into NV_RAM
5. Wait for LKP_WR to clear (LKP_WR auto-clears when the data has been copied to NV RAM).
6. Repeat steps 3 through 5 until all data has been written to NV RAM.
The NV RAM table can also be read by writing a 1 into the LKP_RD bit (I/O RAM 0x2889[1]). The process
of reading from and writing to the NV RAM is accelerated by setting the LKPAUTOI bit (I/O RAM 0x2887[7]).
When LKPAUTOI is set, LKPADDR[6:0] (I/O RAM 0x2887[6:0]) auto-increments every time LKP_RD or
LKP_WR is pulsed. It is also possible to perform random access of the NV RAM by writing a 0 to the
LKPAUTOI bit and loading the desired address into LKPADDR[6:0].
If the oscillator temperature compensation feature is not being used, it is possible to use the NV
RAM storage area as ordinary battery-backed NV storage space using the procedure described
above to read and write NV RAM data. In this case, the OSC_COMP bit (I/O RAM 0x28A0[5]) is
reset to disable the automatic oscillator temperature compensation feature.
2.5.4.5 RTC Interrupts
The RTC generates interrupts each second and each minute. These interrupts are called RTC_1SEC
and RTC_1MIN. In addition, the RTC functions as an alarm clock by generating an interrupt when the
minutes and hours registers both equal their respective target counts as defined in Table 44. The alarm
clock interrupt is called RTC_T. All three interrupts appear in the MPU’s external interrupt 6. See Table 32
in the interrupt section for the enable bits and flags for these interrupts.
The minute and hour target registers are listed in Table 44.

2.5.5 71M6543 Temperature Sensor
The 71M6543 includes an on-chip temperature sensor for determining the temperature of its bandgap
reference. The primary use of the temperature data is to determine the magnitude of compensation
required to offset the thermal drift in the system for the compensation of current, voltage and energy
measurement and the RTC. See 4.5 Metrology Temperature Compensation on page 88. Also see 2.5.4.4
RTC Temperature Compensation on page 52.
Unlike earlier generation Maxim SoCs, the 71M6543 does not use the ADC to read the temperature
sensor. Instead, it uses a technique that is operational in SLP and LCD mode, as well as BRN and MSN
modes. This means that the temperature sensor can be used to compensate for the frequency variation
of the crystal, even in SLP mode while the MPU is halted. See 2.5.4.4 RTC Temperature Compensation
on page 52.
In MSN and BRN modes, the temperature sensor is awakened on command from the MPU by setting the
TEMP_START (I/O RAM 0x28B4[6]) control bit. In SLP and LCD modes, it is awakened at a regular rate
set by TEMP_PER[2:0] (I/O RAM 0x28A0[2:0]).
The result of the temperature measurement is read from the two I/O RAM locations STEMP[10:3] (I/O
RAM 0x2881) and STEMP[2:0] (I/O RAM 0x2882[7:5]). Note that both of these I/O RAM locations must be
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet

read and properly combined to form the STEMP[10:0] 11-bit value (see STEMP in Table 45). The resulting
11-bit value is in 2’s complement form and ranges from -1024 to +1023 (decimal).
The equations below are used to calculate the sensed temperature. The first equation applies when the
71M6543F and 71M6543G are in MSN mode and TEMP_PWR = 1. The second equation applies when the
71M6543F and 71M6543G are in BRN mode, and in this case, the TEMP_PWR and TEMP_BSEL bits must
both be set to the same value, so that the battery that supplies the temperature sensor is also the battery
that is measured and reported in BSENSE. Thus, the second equation requires reading STEMP and
BSENSE. In the second equation, BSENSE (the sensed battery voltage) is used to obtain a more accurate
temperature reading when the IC is in BRN mode. The coefficients provided in the various STEMP
equations below are typical.

2.5.6 71M6xx3 Temperature Sensor
The 71M6xx3 includes an on-chip temperature sensor for determining the temperature of its bandgap
reference. The primary use of the temperature data is to determine the magnitude of compensation re-
quired to offset the thermal drift in the system for the compensation of the current measurement
performed by the71M6xx3. See the 71M6xxx Data Sheet for the equation to calculate temperature from the
71M6xx3 STEMP[10:0] reading. Also, see 4.5 Metrology Temperature Compensation on page 88.
See 2.2.8.3 Control of the 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensor on page 22 for information on how to read the
STEMP[10:0] information from the 71M6xx3.
2.5.7 71M6543 Battery Monitor
The 71M6543 temperature measurement circuit can also monitor the batteries at the VBAT and
VBAT_RTC pins. The battery to be tested (i.e., VBAT or VBAT_RTC pin) is selected by TEMP_BSEL (I/O
RAM 0x28A0[7]).
When TEMP_BAT (I/O RAM 0x28A0[4]) is set, a battery measurement is performed as part of each
temperature measurement. The value of the battery reading is stored in register BSENSE[7:0] (I/O RAM
0x2885). The following equations are used to calculate the voltage measured on the VBAT pin (or
VBAT_RTC pin) from the BSENSE[7:0] and STEMP[10:0] values. The result of the equation below is in volts.
A slightly different equation is used for MSN mode and BRN mode, as follows.

In MSN mode, a 100 µA de-passivation load can be applied to the selected battery (i.e., selected by the
TEMP_BSEL bit) by setting the BCURR (I/O RAM 0x2704[3]) bit. Battery impedance can be measured by
taking a battery measurement with and without BCURR. Regardless of the BCURR bit setting, the battery
load is never applied in BRN, LCD, and SLP modes.
2.5.8 71M6xx3 VCC Monitor
The 71M6xx3 monitors its VCC pin voltage. The voltage of the VCC pin can be obtained by the 71M6543
by issuing a read command to the 71M6xx3. The 71M6543 must request both the VSENSE[7:0] and
STEMP[10:0] values from the 71M6xx3. See the 71M6xxx Data Sheet for the equation to calculate the
71M6xx3 VCC pin voltage from the VSENSE[7:0] and STEMP[10:0] values read from the 71M6xx3.
See 2.2.8.3 Control of the 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensor on page 22 for information on how to read
VSENSE[7:0] and STEMP[10:0] from the 71M6xx3 remote sensors.
2.5.9 UART and Optical Interface
The 71M6543 provides two asynchronous interfaces, UART0 and UART1. Both can be used to connect
to AMR modules, user interfaces, etc., and also support a mechanism for programming the on-chip flash
memory.
Referring to Figure 14, UART1 includes an interface to implement an IR/optical port. The pin OPT_TX is
designed to directly drive an external LED for transmitting data on an optical link. The pin OPT_RX has
the same threshold as the RX pin, but can also be used to sense the input from an external photo detector
used as the receiver for the optical link. OPT_TX and OPT_RX are connected to a dedicated UART port
(UART1).
The OPT_TX and OPT_RX pins can be inverted with configuration bits OPT_TXINV (I/O RAM 0x2456[0])
and OPT_RXINV (I/O RAM 0x2457[1]), respectively. Additionally, the OPT_TX output may be modulated at
38 kHz. Modulation is available in MSN and BRN modes (see Table 61). The OPT_TXMOD bit (I/O RAM
0x2456[1]) enables modulation. The duty cycle is controlled by OPT_FDC[1:0] (I/O RAM 0x2457[5:4]) ,
which can select 50%, 25%, 12.5%, and 6.25% duty cycle. A 6.25% duty cycle means that OPT_TX is
low for 6.25% of the period.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
v2 57
When not needed for UART1, OPT_TX can alternatively be configured as SEGDIO51. Configuration is
via the OPT_TXE[1:0] (I/O RAM 0x2456[3:2]) field and LCD_MAP[51] (I/O RAM 0x2405[0]). The
OPT_TXE[1:0] field allows the MPU to select VPULSE, WPULSE, SEGDIO51 or the output of the pulse
modulator to be sourced onto the OPT_TX pin. Likewise, the OPT_RX pin can alternately be configured
as SEGDIO55, and its control is OPT_RXDIS (I/O RAM 0x2457[2]) and LCD_MAP[55] (I/O RAM 0x2405[4]).

2.5.10 Digital I/O and LCD Segment Drivers
2.5.10.1 General Information
The 71M6543 combines most DIO pins with LCD segment drivers. Each SEG/DIO pin can be configured
as a DIO pin or as a segment driver pin (SEG).
On reset or power-up, all DIO pins are DIO inputs (except for SEGDIO0-15, see caution note below) until
they are configured as desired under MPU control. The pin function can be configured by the I/O RAM
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
58 v2
registers LCD_MAPn (0x2405 0x240B). Setting the bit corresponding to the pin in LCD_MAPn to 1
configures the pin for LCD, setting LCD_MAPn to 0 configures it for DIO.
After reset or power up, pins SEGDIO0 through SEGDIO15 are initially DIO outputs, but are
disabled by PORT_E = 0 (I/O RAM 0x270C[5]) to avoid unwanted pulses during reset. After
configuring pins SEGDIO0 through SEGDIO15 the MPU must enable these pins by setting
PORT_E.
Once a pin is configured as DIO, it can be configured independently as an input or output. For SEGDIO0
to SEGDIO15, this is done with the SFR registers P0 (SFR 0x80), P1 (SFR 0x90), P2 (SFR 0xA0) and P3
(SFR 0xB0), as shown in Table 47.
Example: SEGDIO12 (pin 32 in Table 47) is configured as a DIO output pin with a value of 1 (high) by
writing 0 to bit 4 of LCD_MAP[15:8], and writing 1 to both P3[4]and P3[0]. The same pin is configured
as an LCD driver by writing 1 to bit 4 of LCD_MAP[15:8]. The display information is written to bits 0 to 5
of LCD_SEG12.
The PB pin is a dedicated digital input and is not part of the SEGDIO system.
The CE features pulse counting registers and each pulse counter interrupt output is internally
routed to the pulse interrupt logic. Thus, no routing of pulse signals to external pins is required in
order to generate pulse interrupts. See interrupt source No. 2 in Figure 12.
A 3-bit configuration word, I/O RAM register DIO_Rn (I/O RAM 0x2009[2:0] through 0x200E[6:4]) can be
used for pins SEGDIO2 through SEGDIO11 (when configured as DIO) and PB to individually assign an
internal resource such as an interrupt or a timer control (DIO_RPB[2:0], I/O RAM 0x2450[2:0], configures
the PB pin). This way, DIO pins can be tracked even if they are configured as outputs. Table 47 lists the
internal resources which can be assigned using DIO_R2[2:0] through DIO_R11[2:0] and DIO_RPB[2:0]. If
more than one input is connected to the same resource, the resources are combined using a logical OR.

Note:
Resources are selectable only on SEGDIO2 through SEGDIO11 and the
PB pin. See Table 48.
When driving LEDs, relay coils etc., the DIO pins should sink the current into GNDD (as
shown in Figure 16, right), not source it from V3P3D (as shown in Figure 16, left). This is due
to the resistance of the internal switch that connects V3P3D to either V3P3SYS or VBAT. See
6.4.6 V3P3D Switch on page 136.
Sourcing current in or out of DIO pins other than those dedicated for wake functions, for
example with pullup or pulldown resistors, must be avoided. Violating this rule leads to
increased quiescent current in sleep and LCD modes.

2.5.10.3 LCD Drivers
The LCD drivers are grouped into up to six commons (COM0 COM5) and up to 56 segment drivers.
The LCD interface is flexible and can drive 7-segment digits, 14-segment digits or enunciator symbols.
A voltage doubler and a contrast DAC generate VLCD from either VBAT or V3P3SYS, depending on the
V3P3SYS voltage. The voltage doubler, while capable of driving into a 500 kΩ load, is able to generate a
maximum LCD voltage that is within 1 V of twice the supply voltage. The doubler and DAC operate from
a trimmed low-power reference.
The configuration of the VLCD generation is controlled by the I/O RAM field LCD_VMODE[1:0] (I/O RAM
0x2401[7:6]). It is decoded into LCD_EXT, LDAC_E, and LCD_BSTE. Table 51 details the
LCD_VMODE[1:0] configurations.

VLCD=V3P3L, the LCD DAC and LCD boost are dis-

battery current.
Notes:
1. LCD_EXT, LDAC_E and LCD_BSTE are 71M6543 internal signals which are decoded from
the LCD_VMODE[1:0] control field setting (I/O RAM 0x2401[7:6]). Each of these decoded signals,
when asserted, has the effect indicated in the description column above, and as summarized
below.
LCD_EXT : When set, the VLCD pin expects an external supply voltage
LDAC_E : When set, LCD DAC is enabled
LCD_BSTE : When set, the LCD boost circuit is enabled
2. V3P3L is an internal supply rail that is supplied from either the VBAT pin or the V3P3SYS pin,
depending on the V3P3SYS pin voltage. When the V3P3SYS pin drops below 3.0 VDC, the
71M6543 switches to BRN mode and V3P3L is sourced from the VBAT pin, otherwise V3P3L
is sourced from the V3P3SYS pin while in MSN mode.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
62 v2
When using the VLCD boost circuit, use care when setting the LCD_DAC[4:0] (I/O RAM 0x240D[4:0])
value to ensure that the LCD manufacturer’s recommended operating voltage specification is not
exceeded.
The voltage doubler is active in all LCD modes including the LCD mode when LCD_BSTE = 1. Current
dissipation in LCD mode can be reduced if the boost circuit is disabled and the LCD system is operated
directly from VBAT.
The LCD DAC uses a low-power reference and, within the constraints of VBAT and the voltage doubler,
generates a VLCD voltage of 2.65 VDC + 2.65 * LCD_DAC[4:0]/31. Two fuse bytes increase the accuracy
of the LCD_DAC. LCDADJ12 and LCDADJ0 indicate the actual VLCD output voltage when the DAC is
programmed to 12 and 0 respectively.
The LCD_BAT (I/O RAM 0x2402[7]) bit causes the LCD system to use the battery voltage in all power
modes. This may be useful when an external supply is available for the LCD system. The advantage of
connecting the external supply to VBAT, rather than VLCD is that the LCD DAC is still active.
If LCD_EXT = 1, the VLCD pin must be driven from an external source. In this case, the LCD DAC has
no effect.
The LCD system has the ability to drive up to six segments per SEG driver. If the display is configured with
six back planes, the 6-way multiplexing reduces the number of SEG pins required to drive a display and
therefore enhances the number of DIO pins available to the application. Refer to the LCD_MODE[2:0] field
(I/O RAM 0x2400[6:4]) settings (Table 52) for the different LCD multiplexing choices. If 5-state multiplexing
is selected, SEGDIO27 is converted to COM4. If 6-state multiplexing is selected, SEGDIO26 is converted
to COM5. These conversions override the SEG/DIO mapping of SEGDIO26 and SEGDIO27. Additionally,
independent of LCD_MODE[2:0], if LCD_ALLCOM = 1 (I/O RAM 0x2400[3]), then SEGDIO26 and
SEGDIO27 become COM4 and COM5 if their LCD_MAP[ ] bits are set.
The LCD_ON (I/O RAM 0x240C[0]) and LCD_BLANK (I/O RAM 0x240C[1]) bits are an easy way to either
blank the LCD display or turn it fully on. Neither bit affects the contents of the LCD data stored in the
LCDSEG_DIO[ ] registers. In comparison, LCD_RST (I/O RAM 0x240C[2]) clears all LCD data to zero.
LCD_RST affects only pins that are configured as LCD.
A small amount of power can be saved by programming the LCD frequency to the lowest value that
provides satisfactory LCD visibility over the required temperature range.
Table 52 shows all I/O RAM registers that control the operation of the LCD interface.

The LCD can be driven in static, ½ bias, and 1/3 bias modes. Figure 17 defines the COM waveforms.
Note that COM pins that are not required in a specific mode maintain a segment off state rather than
GND, VCC, or high impedance.
The segment drivers SEGDIO22 and SEGDIO23 can be configured to blink at either 0.5 Hz or 1 Hz.
The blink rate is controlled by LCD_Y (I/O RAM 0x2400[2]). There can be up to six pixels/segments
connected to each of these driver pins. The I/O RAM fields LCD_BLKMAP22[5:0] (I/O RAM 0x2402[5:0])
and LCD_BLKMAP23[5:0] (I/O RAM 0x2401[5:0]) identify which pixels, if any, are to blink.
LCD_BLKMAP22[5:0] and LCD_BLKMAP23[5:0] are non-volatile.

The LCD bias may be compensated for temperature using the LCD_DAC[4:0] field (I/O RAM 0x240D[4:0]).
The bias may be adjusted from 1.4 V below the 3.3 V supply (V3P3SYS in MSN mode and VBAT in BRN
and LCD modes). When the LCD_DAC[4:0] field is set to 000, the DAC is bypassed and powered
down. This setting can be used to reduce current in LCD mode.

SEG pins or their alternate function (see pins 93 and 92 in Figure 42). If the LCD_MAP[47:46] bits are 1,
then the pins are configured as SEG pins. If the LCD_MAP[47:46] bits are 0, then the pins are configured
as their alternate functions (TMUX2OUT and TMUXOUT, respectively).

For example, if LCD_MAP[46] = 1, then pin 93 (TMUX2OUT/SEG46) is configured as SEG46, and if
LCD_MAP[46]=0, then pin 93 is configured as TMUX2OUT.
The SEG pins with alternate ICE interface function (see pins 56-58 in Figure 42) are forced to their
alternate ICE interface function (i.e., E_RXTX, E_TCLK and E_RST) if the ICE_E pin (pin 59) is driven
high, and in this case, the bits LCD_MAP[50:48] (I/O RAM 0x2405[2:0]) bits aredon’t care” bits. If the
ICE_E pin is driven low, then LCD_MAP[50:48] bits must written with 1 in order to configure these pins as
SEG pins. If the ICE_E pin is low and LCD_MAP[50:48] are written with 0, then these pins are tied to an
internal pullup.
2.5.11 EEPROM Interface
The 71M6543 provides hardware support for either a two-pin or a three-wire -wire) type of EEPROM
interface. The interfaces use the EECTRL (SFR 0x9F) and EEDATA (SFR 0x9E) registers for communication.
2.5.11.1 Two-pin EEPROM Interface
The dedicated 2-pin serial interface communicates with external EEPROM devices. The interface is
multiplexed onto the SEGDIO2 (SDCK) and SEGDIO3 (SDATA) pins and is selected by setting
DIO_EEX[1:0] = 01 (I/O RAM 0x2456[7:6]). The MPU communicates with the interface through the SFR
registers EEDATA and EECTRL. If the MPU wishes to write a byte of data to the EEPROM, it places the
data in EEDATA and then writes the Transmit code to EECTRL. This initiates the transmit operation which
is finished when the BUSY bit falls. INT5 is also asserted when BUSY falls. The MPU can then check the
RX_ACK bit to see if the EEPROM acknowledged the transmission.
A byte is read by writing the Receive command to EECTRL and waiting for the BUSY bit to fall. Upon
completion, the received data is in EEDATA. The serial transmit and receive clock is 78 kHz during each
transmission, and then holds in a high state until the next transmission. The EECTRL bits when the two-pin
interface is selected are shown in Table 54.

The EEPROM interface can also be operated by controlling the DIO2 and DIO3 pins directly. The
direction of the DIO line can be changed from input to output and an output value can be written
with a single write operation, thus avoiding collisions (see Table 14 Port Registers (SEGDIO0-15)).
Therefore, no resistor is required in series SDATA to protect against collisions.

2.5.11.2 Three-Wire-Wire) EEPROM Interface with Single Data Pin
A 500 kHz three-wire interface, using SDATA, SDCK, and a DIO pin for CS is available. The interface is
selected by setting DIO_EEX[1:0] = 10. The EECTRL bits when the three-wire interface is selected are
shown in Table 55. When EECTRL is written, up to 8 bits from EEDATA are either written to the EEPROM
or read from the EEPROM, depending on the values of the EECTRL bits.
2.5.11.3 Three-Wire-Wire/SPI) EEPROM Interface with Separate Di/DO Pins
If DIO_EEX[1:0] = 11, the 71M6543 three-wire interface is the same as above, except DI and DO are
separate pins. In this case, SEGDIO3 becomes DO and SEGDIO8 becomes DI. The timing diagrams
are the same as for DIO_EEX[1:0] = 10 except that all output data appears on DO and all input data is
expected on DI. In this mode, DI is ignored while data is being received on DO. This mode is compatible
with SPI modes 0,0 and 1,1 where data is shifted out on the falling edge of the clock and is strobed in on
the rising edge of the clock.

7 WFR W
Wait for Ready. If this bit is set, the trailing edge of BUSY is delayed until
a rising edge is seen on the data line. This bit can be used during the
last byte of a Write command to cause the INT5 interrupt to occur when
the EEPROM has finished its internal write sequence. This bit is
ignored if HiZ=0.
6 BUSY R
Asserted while the serial data bus is busy. When the BUSY bit falls, an
INT5 interrupt occurs.
5 HiZ W
Indicates that the SD signal is to be floated to high impedance immediately
after the last SDCK rising edge.
4
RD
W
Indicates that EEDATA (SFR 0x9E) is to be filled with data from EEPROM.
3:0 CNT[3:0] W
Specifies the number of clocks to be issued. Allowed values are 0
through 8. If RD = 1, CNT bits of data are read MSB first, and right
justified into the low order bits of EEDATA. If RD = 0, CNT bits are sent
MSB first to the EEPROM, shifted out of the MSB of EEDATA. If
CNT[3:0] is zero, SDATA simply obeys the HiZ bit.
The timing diagrams in Figure 18 through Figure 22 describe the 3-wire EEPROM interface behavior. All
commands begin when the EECTRL register is written. Transactions start by first raising the DIO pin that
is connected to CS. Multiple 8-bit or less commands such as those shown in Figure 18 through Figure 22
are then sent via EECTRL and EEDATA.
When the transaction is finished, CS must be lowered. At the end of a Read transaction, the EEPROM
drives SDATA, but transitions to HiZ (high impedance) when CS falls. The firmware should then
immediately issue a write command with CNT=0 and HiZ=0 to take control of SDATA and force it to a
low-Z state.

2.5.12 SPI Slave Port
The slave SPI port communicates directly with the MPU data bus and is able to read and write Data RAM
and Configuration RAM (I/O RAM) locations. It is also able to send commands to the MPU. The interface
to the slave port consists of the SPI_CSZ, SPI_CKI, SPI_DI and SPI_DO pins. These pins are multiplexed
with the combined DIO/LCD segment driver pins SEGDIO36 to SEGDIO39 (pins 3, 2, 1 and 100).
Additionally, the SPI interface allows flash memory to be read and to be programmed. To facilitate flash
programming, cycling power or asserting RESET causes the SPI port pins to default to SPI mode. The
SPI port is disabled by clearing the SPI_E bit (I/O RAM 0x270C[4]).
Possible applications for the SPI interface are:

1) An external host reads data from CE locations to obtain metering information. This can be used in
applications where the 71M6543 function as a smart front-end with preprocessing capability. Since the
addresses are in 16-bit format, any type of XRAM data can be accessed: CE, MPU, I/O RAM, but not
SFRs or the 80515-internal register bank.
2) A communication link can be established via the SPI interface: By writing into MPU memory locations,
the external host can initiate and control processes in the 71M6543 MPU. Writing to a CE or MPU
location normally generates an interrupt, a function that can be used to signal to the MPU that the
byte that had just been written by the external host must be read and processed. Data can also be
inserted by the external host without generating an interrupt.
3) An external DSP can access front-end data generated by the ADC. This mode of operation uses the
71M6543 as an analog front-end (AFE).
4) Flash programming by the external host (SPI Flash Mode).
SPI Transactions
A typical SPI transaction is as follows. While SPI_CSZ is high, the port is held in an initialized/reset state.
During this state, SPI_DO is held in high impedance state and all transitions on SPI_CLK and SPI_DI are
ignored. When SPI_CSZ falls, the port begins the transaction on the first rising edge of SPI_CLK. As
shown in Table 56, a transaction consists of an optional 16 bit address, an 8 bit command, an 8 bit status
byte, followed by one or more bytes of data. The transaction ends when SPI_CSZ is raised. Some
transactions may consist of a command only.
When SPI_CSZ rises, SPI command bytes that are not of the form x0000000 cause the SPI_CMD (SFR
0xFD) register to be updated and then cause an interrupt to be issued to the MPU. The exception is if the
transaction was a single byte. In this case, the SPI_CMD byte is always updated and the interrupt issued.
SPI_CMD is not cleared when SPI_CSZ is high.
The SPI port supports data transfers up to 10 Mb/s. A serial read or write operation requires at least 8
clocks per byte, guaranteeing SPI access to the RAM is no faster than 1.25 MHz, thus ensuring that SPI
access to DRAM is always possible.

SPI Safe Mode
Sometimes it is desirable to prevent the SPI interface from writing to arbitrary RAM locations and thus
disturbing MPU and CE operation. This is especially true in AFE applications. For this reason, the SPI
SAFE mode was created. In SPI SAFE mode, SPI write operations are disabled except for a 16 byte
transfer region at address 0x400 to 0x40F. If the SPI host needs to write to other addresses, it must use
the SPI_CMD register to request the write operation from the MPU. SPI SAFE mode is enabled by the
SPI_SAFE bit (I/O RAM 0x270C[3]).
Single-Byte Transaction
If a transaction is a single byte, the byte is interpreted as SPI_CMD. Regardless of the byte value,
single-byte transactions always update the SPI_CMD register and cause an SPI interrupt to be generated.
Multi-Byte Transaction
As shown in Figure 23, multi-byte operations consist of a 16 bit address field, an 8 bit CMD, a status byte,
and a sequence of data bytes. A multi byte transaction is three or more bytes.

SPI Flash Mode (SFM)
In normal operation, the SPI slave interface cannot read or write the flash memory. However, the
71M6543 supports a special flash mode (SFM) which facilitates initial programming of the flash memory.
When the 71M6543 is in this mode, the SPI can erase, read, and write the flash memory. Other memory
elements such as XRAM and IO RAM are not accessible in this mode. In order to protect the flash
contents, several operations are required before the SFM mode is successfully invoked.
In SFM mode, the 71M6543 supports n byte reads and dual-byte writes to flash memory. See the SPI
Transaction description on Page 68 for the format of read and write commands. Since the flash write
operation is always based on a two-byte word, the initial address must always be even. Data is written to
the 16-bit flash memory bus after the odd word is written.
When the 71M6543G is operating SFM, SPI single-byte transactions are used to write to FL_BANK[1:0]
(SFR 0xB6[1:0]). During an SPI single-byte transaction, SPI_CMD[1:0] will over-write the contents of
FL_BANK[1:0] (SFR 0xB6[1:0]). This will allow for access of the entire 128 KB flash memory while
operating in SFM.
In SFM mode, the MPU is completely halted. For this reason, the interrupt feature described in the SPI
Transaction section above is not available in SFM mode. The 71M6543 must be reset by the WD timer or
by the RESET pin in order to exit SFM mode.
Invoking SFM
The following conditions must be met prior to invoking SFM:
ICE_E = 1. This disables the watchdog and adds another layer of protection against inadvertent
Flash corruption.
The external power source (V3P3SYS, V3P3A) is at the proper level (> 3.0 VDC).
PREBOOT = 0 (SFR 0xB2[7]). This validates the state of the SECURE bit (SFR 0xB2[6]).
SECURE = 0. This I/O RAM register indicates that SPI secure mode is not enabled. Operations are
limited to SFM Mass Erase mode if the SECURE bit = 1 (Flash read back is not allowed in Secure mode).
FLSH_UNLOCK[3:0] = 0010 (I/O RAM 0x2702[7:4]).
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
v2 71
The I/O RAM registers SFMM (I/O RAM 0x2080) and SFMS (I/O RAM 0x2081) are used to invoke SFM. Only
the SPI interface has access to these two registers. This eliminates an indirect path from the MPU for
disabling the watchdog. SFMM and SFMS need to be written to in sequence in order to invoke SFM. This
sequential write process prevents inadvertent entering of SFM. The sequence for invoking SFM is:
First, write to SFMM (I/O RAM 0x2080) register. The value written to this register defines the SFM mode.
o 0xD1: Mass Erase mode. A Flash Mass erase cycle is invoked upon entering SFM.
o 0x2E: Flash Read back mode. SFM is entered for Flash read back purposes. Flash writes
will not be blocked and it is up to the user to guarantee that only previously unwritten
locations are written. This mode is not accessible when SPI secure mode is set.
o SFM is not invoked if any other pattern is written to the SFMM register.
Next, write 0x96 to the SFMS (I/O RAM 0x2081) register. This write invokes SFM provided that the
previous write operation to SFMM met the requirements. Writing any other pattern to this register
does not invoke SFM. Additionally, any write operations to this register automatically reset the
previously written SFMM register values to zero.
SFM Details
The following occurs upon entering SFM.
The CE is disabled.
The MPU is halted. Once the MPU is halted it can only be restarted with a reset. This reset can be
accomplished with the RESET pin, a watchdog reset, or by cycling power (without battery at the
VBAT pin).
The Flash control logic is reset in case the MPU was in the middle of a Flash write operation or Erase
cycle.
Mass erase is invoked if specified in the SFMM (I/O RAM 0x2080) register (see Invoking SFM, above).
The SECURE bit (SFR 0xB2[6]) is cleared at the end of this and all Mass Erase cycles.
All SPI read and write operations now refer to Flash instead of XRAM space.
The SPI host can access the current state of the pending multi-cycle Flash access by performing a 4-byte
SPI write of any address and checking the status field.
All SPI write operations in SFM mode must be 6-byte write transactions that write two bytes to an even
address. The write transactions must contain a command byte of 0x00 which is the form that does not
create an MPU interrupt. Auto incrementing is disabled for write operations.
SPI read transactions can make use of auto increment and may access single bytes. The command byte
must always be 0x80 in SFM read transactions.
SPI commands in SFM
Interrupts are not generated in SFM since the MPU is halted. The format of the commands is shown in the
SPI Transactions description on Page 68.SPI Transactions
2.5.13 Hardware Watchdog Timer
An independent, robust, fixed-duration, watchdog timer (WDT) is included in the 71M6543. It uses the
RTC crystal oscillator as its time base and must be refreshed by the MPU firmware at least every
1.5 seconds. When not refreshed on time, the WDT overflows and the part is reset as if the RESET pin
were pulled high, except that the I/O RAM bits are in the same state as after a wake-up from SLP or LCD
modes (see the I/O RAM description in 5.2 for a list of I/O RAM bit states after RESET and wake-up).
Four thousand, one hundred CK32 cycles (or 125 ms) after the WDT overflow, the MPU is launched from
program address 0x0000.
The watchdog timer is also reset when the internal signal WAKE=0 (see 3.4 Wake-Up Behavior). The
WDT is disabled when the ICE_E pin is pulled high.
For details, see 3.3.4 Watchdog Timer (WDT) Reset.

2.5.14 Test Ports (TMUXOUT and TMUX2OUT Pins)
Two independent multiplexers allow the selection of internal analog and digital signals for the TMUXOUT
and TMUX2OUT pins. These pins are multiplexed with the SEG47 and SEG46 function. In order to function
as test pins, LCD_MAP[46] (I/O RAM 0x2406[6]) and LCD_MAP[47] (I/O RAM 0x2406[7]) must be 0.
One of the digital or analog signals listed in Table 60 can be selected to be output on the TMUXOUT pin.
The function of the multiplexer is controlled with the I/O RAM register TMUX[4:0] (I/O RAM 0x2502[4:0], as
shown in Table 59.
One of the digital or analog signals listed in Table 60 can be selected to be output on the TMUX2OUT pin.
The function of the multiplexer is controlled with the I/O RAM register TMUX2[4:0] (I/O RAM 0x2503[4:0]), as
shown in.
The TMUX and TMUX2 I/O RAM locations are non-volatile and their contents are preserved by
battery power and across resets.
The TMUXOUT and TMUX2OUT pins may be used for diagnosis purposes or in production test. The
RTC 1-second output may be used to calibrate the crystal oscillator. The RTC 4-second output provides
even higher precision.

The energy delivered by a power source into a load can be expressed as:

)()(
Assuming phase angles are constant, the following formulae apply:
P = Real Energy [Wh] = V * A * cos φ* t
Q = Reactive Energy [VARh] = V * A * sin φ * t
S = Apparent Energy [VAh] =
22
QP +
For a practical meter, not only voltage and current amplitudes, but also phase angles and harmonic
content may change constantly. Thus, simple RMS measurements are inherently inaccurate. A modern
solid-state electricity meter IC such as the 71M6543 functions by emulating the integral operation
above, i.e. it processes current and voltage samples through an ADC at a constant frequency. As long as
the ADC resolution is high enough and the sample frequency is beyond the harmonic range of interest,
the current and voltage samples, multiplied with the time period of sampling yields an accurate quantity
for the momentary energy. Summing-up the momentary energy quantities over time results in
accumulated energy.
Figure 24: Voltage, Current, Momentary and Accumulated Energy
Figure 24 shows the shapes of V(t), I(t), the momentary power and the accumulated power, resulting from
50 samples of the voltage and current signals over a period of 20 ms. The application of 240 VAC and
100 A results in an accumulation of 480 Ws (= 0.133 Wh) over the 20 ms period, as indicated by the
accumulated power curve. The described sampling method works reliably, even in the presence of dynamic
phase shift and harmonic distortion.
3.2 Battery Modes
Shortly after system power (V3P3SYS) is applied, the 71M6543 is in mission mode (MSN mode). MSN
mode means that the part is operating with system power and that the internal PLL is stable. This mode
is the normal operating mode where the part is capable of measuring energy.

When system power is not available, the 71M6543 is in one of three battery modes:
BRN mode (brownout mode)
LCD mode (LCD-only mode)
SLP mode (sleep mode).
An internal comparator monitors the voltage at the V3P3SYS pin (note that V3P3SYS and V3P3A are
typically connected together at the PCB level). When the V3P3SYS dc voltage drops below 2.8 VDC, the
comparator resets an internal power status bit called V3OK . As soon as system power is removed and
V3OK = 0, the 71M6543 is forced to BRN mode. The MPU continues to execute code when the system
transitions from MSN to BRN mode or from BRN to MSN mode. A soft reset should be executed when
returning from BRN to MSN mode in order to re-initialize the I/O RAM. Depending on the MPU code, the
MPU can choose to stay in BRN mode, or transition to LCD or to SLP mode (via the I/O RAM bits
LCD_ONLY, I/O RAM 0x28B2[6] and SLEEP, I/O RAM 0x28B2[7]). BRN mode is similar to MSN mode except
that resources powered by system power, such as the ADC and the CE, are not available (see Table 61),
and that the supply current is drawn from the VBAT pin. In BRN mode, the PLL continues to function at
the same frequency as in MSN mode. The MPU can configure BRN mode as it desires. For instance, it
may choose to minimize battery power by reducing the PLL or MPU clock speed (see 3.2.1 BRN Mode,
for the recommended settings to realize minimum power consumption in BRN mode).
When system power is restored, the 71M6543 automatically transitions from any of the battery modes
(BRN, LCD, SLP) back to MSN mode.
Figure 25 shows a state diagram of the various operating modes, with the possible transitions between modes.
When the part wakes-up under battery power, the part automatically enters BRN mode (see 3.4 Wake-Up
Behavior). From BRN mode, the part may enter either LCD mode or SLP mode, as controlled by the MPU.

Transitions from both LCD and SLP mode to BRN mode can be initiated by the following events:
Wake-up timer timeout.
Pushbutton (PB) is activated.
A rising edge on SEGDIO4, or a high logic level on SEGDIO52 or SEGDIO55.

1. --indicates that the corresponding circuit is not active
2. “Boost” implies that the LCD boost circuit is active (i.e., LCD_VMODE[1:0] = 10 (I/O RAM 0x2401[7:6])). The LCD boost
circuit requires a clock from the PLL to function. Thus, the PLL is automatically kept active if LCD boost is active while in
LCD mode, otherwise the PLL is de-activated.

v2 77
3.2.1 BRN Mode
In BRN mode, most non-metering digital functions are active (as shown in Table 61) including ICE, UART,
EEPROM, LCD and RTC. In BRN mode, the PLL continues to function at the same frequency as MSN
mode. It is up to the MPU to scale down the PLL (using PLL_FAST, I/O RAM 0x2200[4]) or the MPU
frequency (using MPU_DIV[2:0], I/O RAM 0x2200[2:0]) in order to save power.
From BRN mode, the MPU can choose to enter LCD or SLP modes. When system power is restored
while the 71M6543 is in BRN mode, the part automatically transitions to MSN mode.
The recommended minimum power configuration for BRN mode is as follows:
RCE0 = 0x00 (I/O RAM 0x2709[7:0]) - remote sensors disabled
LCD_BAT = 1 (I/O RAM 0x2402[7]) - LCD powered from VBAT
LCD_VMODE[1:0] = 0 (I/O RAM 0x2401[7:6]) - 5V LCD boost disabled
CE6 = 0x00 (I/O RAM 0x2106) - CE, RTM and CHOP are disabled
MUX_DIV[3:0] = 0(I/O RAM 0x2100[7:4]) - the ADC multiplexer is disabled
ADC_E = 0 (I/O RAM 0x2704[4]) - ADC disabled
VREF_CAL = 0 (I/O RAM 0x2704[7]) – Vref not driven out
VREF_DIS = 1 (I/O RAM 0x2704[6]) - Vref disabled
PRE_E = 0 (I/O RAM 0x2704[5] - pre-amp disabled
BCURR = 0 (I/O RAM 0x2704[3]) - battery 100µA current load OFF
TMUX[5:0] = 0x0E (I/O RAM 0x2502[5:0]) TMUXOUT output set to a dc value
TMUX2[4:0] = 0x0E (I/O RAM 0x2503[4:0]) TMUXOUT2 output set to a dc value
CKGN = 0x24 (I/O RAM 0x2200) - PLL set slow, and MPU_DIV[2:0] (I/O RAM 0x2200[2:0]) set to maximum
TEMP_PER[2:0] = 6 (I/O RAM 0x28A0[2:0]) - temp measurement set to automatic every 512 s
TEMP_BSEL = 1 (I/O RAM 0x28A0[7]) - temperature sensor monitors VBAT
PCON |= 1 (SFR 0x87) - at the end of the main BRN loop, halt the MPU and wait for an interrupt
The baud rate registers are adjusted as needed
All unused interrupts are disabled
3.2.2 LCD Mode
LCD mode may be commanded by the MPU at any time by setting the LCD_ONLY control bit (I/O RAM
0x28B2[6]). However, it is recommended that the LCD_ONLY control bit be set by the MPU only after the
71M6543 has entered BRN mode. For example, if the 71M6543 is in MSN mode when LCD_ONLY is set,
the duration of LCD mode is very brief and the 71M6543 immediately 'wakes'.
In LCD mode, V3P3D is disabled, and the VBAT pin supplies the LCD current. Before asserting
LCD_ONLY mode, it is recommended that the MPU minimize PLL current by reducing the output
frequency of the PLL to 6.29 MHz (i.e., write PLL_FAST = 0, I/O RAM 0x2200[4]). The LCD boost system
requires a clock from the PLL for its operation. Thus, if the LCD boost system is enabled (i.e.,
LCD_VMODE[1:0] = 10, I/O RAM 0x2401[7:6]), then the PLL is automatically kept active during LCD
mode, otherwise the PLL is de-activated.
In LCD mode, the data contained in the LCD_SEG registers is displayed using the segment driver pins.
Up to two LCD segments connected to the pins SEGDIO22 and SEGDIO23 can be made to blink without
the involvement of the MPU, which is disabled in LCD mode. To minimize battery power consumption,
only segments that are used should be enabled.
After the transition from LCD mode to MSN or BRN mode, the PC (Program Counter) is at 0x0000, the
XRAM is in an undefined state, and configuration I/O RAM bits are reset (see Table 70 for I/O RAM state
upon wake). The data stored in non-volatile I/O RAM locations is preserved in LCD mode (the shaded
locations in Table 70 are non-volatile).
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
78 v2
3.2.3 SLP Mode
The SLP mode may be commanded by the MPU whenever main system power is absent by asserting the
SLEEP bit (I/O RAM 0x28B2[7]). The purpose of the SLP mode is to consume the least power while still
maintaining the RTC, temperature compensation of the RTC, and the non-volatile portions of the I/O RAM.
In SLP mode, the V3P3D pin is disconnected, removing all sources of leakage from VBAT and V3P3SYS.
The non-volatile memory domain and the basic functions, such as temperature sensor, oscillator, and
RTC, are powered by the VBAT_RTC input. In this mode, the I/O configuration bits, LCD configuration
bits, and NV RAM values are preserved and RTC and oscillator continue to run. This mode can be exited
only by system power-up or one of the wake methods described in 3.4 Wake-Up Behavior.
If the SLEEP bit is asserted when V3P3SYS pin power is present (i.e., while in MSN mode), the 71M6543
enters SLP mode, resetting the internal WAKE signal, at which point the 71M6543 begins the standard
wake from sleep procedures as described in 3.4 Wake-Up Behavior.
After the transition from SLP mode to MSN or BRN mode the PC is at 0x0000, the XRAM is in an
undefined state, and the I/O RAM is only partially preserved (see the description of I/O RAM states in
5.2). The non-volatile sections of the I/O RAM are preserved unless RESET goes high.

3.3 Fault and Reset Behavior
3.3.1 Events at Power-Down
Power fault detection is performed by internal comparators that monitor the voltage at the V3P3A pin and
also monitor the internally generated VDD pin voltage (2.5 VDC). The V3P3SYS and V3P3A pins must be
tied together at the PCB level, so that the comparators, which are internally connected only to the V3P3A
pin, are able to simultaneously monitor the common V3P3SYS and V3P3A pin voltage. The following
discussion assumes that the V3P3A and V3P3SYS pins are tied together at the PCB level.
During a power failure, as V3P3A falls, two thresholds are detected:
The first threshold, at 3.0 VDC (VSTAT[2:0] = 001, SFR 0xF9[2:0]), warns the MPU that the analog
modules are no longer accurate. Other than warning the MPU, the hardware takes no action when
this threshold is crossed. This comparison produces an internal bit named V3OKA.
The second threshold, at 2.8 VDC, causes the 71M6543 to switch to battery power. This switching
happens while the FLASH and RAM systems are still able to read and write. This comparison
produces an internal bit named V3OK.
The power quality is reflected by the VSTAT[2:0] register in I/O RAM space, as shown in Table 62. The
VSTAT[2:0] register is located at SFR address F9 and occupies bits 2:0. The VSTAT[2:0] field can only be
read.
In addition to the state of the main power, the VSTAT[2:0] register provides information about the internal
VDD voltage under battery power. Note that if system power (V3P3A) is above 2.8 VDC, the 71M6543
always switches from battery to system power.
Table 62: VSTAT[2:0] (SFR 0xF9[2:0])
VSTAT[2:0] Description
000
System Power OK. V3P3A > 3.0 VDC. Analog modules are functional and accurate.
001 System Power is low. 2.8 VDC < V3P3A < 3.0 VDC. Analog modules not accurate.
Switch over to battery power is imminent.
010
The IC is on battery power and VDD is OK. VDD > 2.25 VDC. The IC has full digital
functionality.
011 The IC is on battery power and 2.25 VDC > VDD > 2.0 VDC. Flash write operations are
inhibited.
101
The IC is on battery power and VDD < 2.0, which means that the MPU is nearly out of
voltage. A reset occurs in 4 cycles of the crystal clock CK32.
The response to a system power fault is almost entirely controlled by firmware. During a power failure,
system power slowly falls. This fall in power is monitored by internal comparators that cause the
hardware to automatically switch over to taking power from the VBAT input. An interrupt notifies the MPU
that the part is now battery powered. At this point, it is the MPU’s responsibility to reduce power by
slowing the clock rate, disabling the PLL, etc.
Precision analog components such as the bandgap reference, the bandgap buffer, and the ADC are
powered only by the V3P3A pin and become inaccurate and ultimately unavailable as the V3P3A pin
voltage continues to drop (i.e., circuits powered by the V3P3A pin are not backed by the VBAT pin).
When the V3P3A pin falls below 2.8 VDC, the ADC clocks are halted and the amplifiers are unbiased.
Meanwhile, control bits such as ADC_E bit (I/O RAM 0x2704[4]) are not affected, since their I/O RAM
storage is powered from the VDD pin (2.5 VDC). The VDD pin is supplied with power through an internal
2.5 VDC regulator that is connected to the V3P3D pin. In turn, the V3P3D pin is switched to receive
power from the VBAT pin when the V3P3SYS pin drops below 3.0 VDC. Note that the V3P3SYS and
V3P3A pins are typically tied together at the PCB level.

80 v2
3.3.2 IC Behavior at Low Battery Voltage
When system power is not present, the 71M6543 relies on the VBAT pin for power. If the VBAT voltage is
not sufficient to maintain VDD at 2.0 VDC or greater, the MPU cannot operate reliably. Low VBAT voltage
can occur while the part is operating in BRN mode, or while it is dormant in SLP or LCD mode. Two cases
can be distinguished, depending on MPU code:
Case 1: System power is not present, and the part is waking from SLP or LCD mode. In this case,
the hardware checks the value of VDD to determine if processor operation is possible. If it is not
possible, the part configures itself for BRN operation, and holds the processor in reset (WAKE=0). In
this mode, VBAT powers the 1.0 VDC reference for the LCD system, the VDD regulator, the PLL, and
the fault comparator. The part remains in this waiting mode until VDD becomes high due to system
power being applied or the VBAT battery being replaced or recharged.
Case 2: The part is operating under VBAT power and VSTAT[2:0] (SFR 0xF9[2:0]) becomes 101,
indicating that VDD falls below 2.0 VDC. In this case, the firmware has two choices:
1) One choice is to assert the SLEEP bit (I/O RAM 0x28B2[7]) immediately. This assertion preserves
the remaining charge in VBAT. Of course, if the battery voltage is not increased, the 71M6543
enters Case 1 as soon as it tries to wake up.
2) The alternative choice is to enter the waiting mode described in Case 1 immediately. Specifically,
if the firmware does not assert the SLEEP bit, the hardware resets the processor four CE32 clock
cycles (i.e. 122 µs) after VSTAT[2:0] becomes 101 and, as described in Case 1, it begins waiting
for VDD to become greater than 2.0 VDC. The MPU wakes up when system power returns, or
when VDD becomes greater than 2.0 VDC.
In either case, when VDD recovers, and when the MPU wakes up, the WF_BADVDD flag (I/O RAM 0x28B0[2])
can be read to determine that the processor is recovering from a bad VBAT condition. The WF_BADVDD
flag remains set until the next time WAKE falls. This flag is independent of the other WF flags.
In all cases, low VBAT voltage does not corrupt RTC operation, the state of NV memory, or the state of
non-volatile memory. These circuits depend on the VBAT_RTC pin for power.
3.3.3 Reset Sequence
When the RESET pin is pulled high, all digital activity in the chip stops, with the exception of the oscillator
and RTC. Additionally, all I/O RAM bits are forced to their RST state. A reliable reset does not occur until
RESET has been high at least for 2 µs. Note that TMUX and the RTC are not reset unless the TEST pin
is pulled high while RESET is high.
The RESET control bit (I/O RAM 0x 2200[3]) performs an identical reset to the RESET pin except that a
significantly shorter reset timer is used.
Once initiated, the reset sequence waits until the reset timer times out. The time out occurs in 4100
CE32 cycles (125 ms), at which time the MPU begins executing its pre-boot and boot sequences from
address 0x0000. See 2.5.1.1 for a detailed description of the pre-boot and boot sequences.
If system power is not present, the reset timer duration is two CE32 cycles, at which time the MPU begins
executing in BRN mode, starting at address 0x0000.
A softer form of reset is initiated when the E_RST pin of the ICE interface is pulled low. This event causes
the MPU and other registers in the MPU core to be reset but does not reset the remainder of the
71M6543. It does not trigger the reset sequence. This type of reset is intended to reset the MPU
program, but not to make other changes to the chip’s state.
3.3.4 Watchdog Timer (WDT) Reset
The watchdog timer (WDT) is described in 2.5.13.
A status bit, WF_OVF (I/O RAM 0x28B0[4]), is set when a WDT overflow occurs. Similar to the other wake
flags, this bit is powered by the non-volatile supply and can be read by the MPU to determine if the part is
initializing after a WD overflow event or after a power-up. The WF_OVF bit is cleared by the RESET pin.
There is no internal digital state that could deactivate the WDT. For debug purposes, however, the WDT
can be disabled by raising the ICE_E pin to 3.3 VDC.
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
v2 81
In normal operation, the WDT is reset by periodically writing a one to the WD_RST control bit I/O RAM
0x28B4[7]). The watchdog timer is also reset when the 71M6543 wakes from LCD or SLP mode, and
when ICE_E=1.
3.4 Wake-Up Behavior
As described above, the part always wakes up in MSN mode when system power is restored. As stated
in 3.2 Battery Modes, transitions from both LCD and SLP mode to BRN mode can be initiated by a wake-
up timer timeout, when the pushbutton (PB) input is activated, a rising edge on SEGDIO4, or a high logic
level on SEGDIO52 or SEGDIO55, or by activity on the RX or OPT_RX pins.
3.4.1 Wake on Hardware Events
The following pin signal events wake the 71M6543 from SLP or LCD mode: a high level on the PB pin, either
edge on the RX pin, a rising edge on the SEGDIO4 pin, a high level on the SEGDIO52 pin, or a high level on
the SEGDIO55 pin or either edge on the OPT_RX pin. See Table 63 for de-bounce details on each pin and
for further details on the OPT_RX/SEGDIO55 pin. The SEGDIO4, SEGDIO52, and SEGDIO55 pins must
be configured as DIO inputs and their wake enable (EW_x bits) must be set. In SLP and LCD modes, the
MPU is held in reset and cannot poll pins or react to interrupts. When one of the hardware wake events
occurs, the internal WAKE signal rises and within three CK32 cycles the MPU begins to execute. The
MPU can determine which one of the pins awakened it by checking the WF_PB, WF_RX, WF_SEGDIO4,
WF_DIO52, or WF_DIO55 flags (see Table 63).
If the part is in SLP or LCD mode, it can be awakened by a high level on the PB pin. This pin is normally
pulled to GND and can be connected externally so it may be pulled high by a push button depression.
Some pins are de-bounced to reject EMI noise. Detection hardware ignores all transitions after the initial
transition. Table 63 shows which pins are equipped with de-bounce circuitry.
Pins that do not have de-bounce circuits must still be high for at least 2 µs to be recognized.
The wake enable and flag bits are shown in Table 63. The wake flag bits are set by hardware when the
MPU wakes from a wake event. Note that the PB flag is set whenever the PB is pushed, even if the part
is already awake. Table 65 lists the events that clear the WF flags.
In addition to push buttons and timers, the part can also reboot due to the RESET pin, the RESET bit (I/O
RAM 0x2200[3]), the WDT, the cold start detector, and E_RST. As seen in Table 63, each of these
mechanisms has a flag bit to alert the MPU to the source of the wakeup. If the wakeup is caused by
return of system power, there is no active WF flag and the VSTAT[2:0] field (SFR 0xF9[2:0]) indicates that
system power is stable.

Note:
“WAKE falls” implies that the internal WAKE signal has been reset, which happens automatically upon
entry into LCD mode or SLEEP mode (i.e., when the MPU sets the LCD_ONLY bit (I/O RAM 0x28B2[6]) or
the SLEEP (I/O RAM 0x28B2[7]) bit). When the internal WAKE signal resets, all wake flags are reset. Since
the various wake flags are automatically reset when WAKE falls, it is not necessary for the MPU to reset
these flags before entering LCD mode or SLEEP mode. Also, other wake events can cause the wake flag
to reset, as indicated above (e.g., the WF_RST flag can also be reset by any of the following flags setting:
WF_CSTART, WS_RSTBIT, WF_OVF, WF_BADVDD)
3.4.2 Wake on Timer
If the part is in SLP or LCD mode, it can be awakened by the Wake Timer. Until this timer times out, the
MPU is in reset due to the internal WAKE signal being low. When the Wake Timer times out, WAKE rises
and within three CK32 cycles, the MPU begins to execute. The MPU can determine that the timer woke it
by checking the WF_TMR (I/O RAM 0x28B1[2]) wake flag.
The Wake Timer begins timing when the part enters LCD or SLP mode. Its duration is controlled by the
WAKE_TMR[7:0] register (I/O RAM 0x2880). The timer duration is WAKE_TMR[7:0] +1 seconds.
The Wake Timer is armed by setting WAKE_ARM = 1 (I/O RAM 0x28B2[5]). It must be armed at least
three RTC cycles before either SLP or LCD modes are initiated. Setting WAKE_ARM presets the timer
with the value in WAKE_TMR and readies the timer to start when the MPU writes to the SLEEP (I/O RAM
0x28B2[7]) or LCD_ONLY (I/O RAM 0x28B2[6]) bits. The timer is neither reset nor disarmed when the
MPU wakes-up. Thus, once armed and set, the MPU continues to be awakened WAKE_TMR[7:0]
seconds after it requests SLP mode or LCD mode (i.e., once written, the WAKE_TMR[7:0] register holds
its value and does not have to be re-written each time the MPU enters SLP or LCD mode. Also, since
WAKE_TMR[7:0] is non-volatile, it also holds its value through resets and power failures).
3.5 Data Flow and MPU/CE Communication
The data flow between the Compute Engine (CE) and the MPU is shown in Figure 26. In a typical application,
the 32-bit CE sequentially processes the samples from the ADC inputs, performing calculations to measure
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
84 v2
active power (Wh), reactive power (VARh), A2h, and V2h for four-quadrant metering. These measurements
are then accessed by the MPU, processed further and output using the peripheral devices available to the
MPU.
Both the CE and multiplexer are controlled by the MPU via shared registers in the I/O RAM and in RAM.
The CE outputs a total of six discrete signals to the MPU. These consist of four pulses and two interrupts:
CE_BUSY
XFER_BUSY
WPULSE, VPULSE (pulses for active and reactive energy)
XPULSE, YPULSE (auxiliary pulses)
These interrupts are connected to the MPU interrupt service inputs as external interrupts. CE_BUSY
indicates that the CE is actively processing data. This signal occurs once every multiplexer cycle (typically
396 µs), and indicates that the CE has updated status information in its CESTATUS register (CE RAM 0x80).
XFER_BUSY indicates that the CE is updating data to the output region of the RAM. This update occurs
whenever the CE has finished generating a sum by completing an accumulation interval determined by
SUM_SAMPS[12:0], I/O RAM 0x2107[4:0], 2108[7:0], (typically every 1000 ms). Interrupts to the MPU occur
on the falling edges of the XFER_BUSY and CE_BUSY signals.
WPULSE and VPULSE are typically used to signal energy accumulation of real (Wh) and reactive (VARh)
energy. Tying WPULSE and VPULSE into the MPU interrupt system can support pulse counting.
XPULSE and YPULSE can be used to signal events such as sags and zero crossings of the mains voltage
to the MPU. Tying these outputs into the MPU interrupt system relieves the MPU from having to read the
CESTATUS register at every occurrence of the CE_BUSY interrupt in order to detect sag or zero crossing
events.
Refer to 5.3 CE Interface Description on page 116 for additional information on setting up the device
using the MPU firmware.

4.3 Systems Using 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensors and Current Shunts
Figure 31 shows a typical connection for current shunt sensors; using the 71M6xx3 (polyphase) isolated
sensors. Note that one shunt current sensor is connected without isolation, which is the neutral current
sensor in this example (connected to pins IADC0-IADC1). Each 71M6xx3 device is electrically isolated
by a low-cost pulse transformer. The 71M6543 current sensor inputs must be configured for remote
sensor communications, as described in 2.2.8 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensor Interface (page 22). Flexible
remapping using the I/O RAM registers MUXn_SEL[3:0] allows the sequence of analog input pins to be
different from the standard configuration (a corresponding CE code must be used). See Figure 2 for the
AFE configuration corresponding to Figure 31.

4.5 Metrology Temperature Compensation
4.5.1 Temperature Compensation
Since the VREF band-gap amplifier is chopper-stabilized, as set by the CHOP_E[1:0] (I/O RAM 0x2106[3:2])
control field, the dc offset voltage, which is the most significant long-term drift mechanism in the voltage
references (VREF), is automatically removed by the chopper circuit. Both the 71M6543 and the 71M6xx3
feature chopper circuits for their respective VREF voltage reference.
Since the variation in the bandgap reference voltage (VREF) is the major contributor to measurement
error across temperatures, Maxim implements a two-step procedure to trim and characterize the VREF
voltage reference during the device manufacturing process.
The first step in the process is applied to all parts (71M6543F, 71M6543G). In this first step, the reference
voltage (VREF) is trimmed to a target value of 1.195V. During this trimming process, the TRIMT[7:0] (I/O
RAM 0x2309) value is stored in non-volatile fuses. TRIMT[7:0] is trimmed to a value that results in
minimum VREF variation with temperature.
For the 71M6543F and 71M6543G devices, the TRIMT[7:0] value can be read by the MPU during
initialization in order to calculate parabolic temperature compensation coefficients suitable for each
individual 71M6543F and 71M6543G device. The resulting temperature coefficient for VREF in the
71M6543F and 71M6543G is ±40 ppm/°C.
Considering the factory calibration temperature of VREF to be +22°C and the industrial temperature
range (-40°C to +85°C), the VREF error at the temperature extremes for the 71M6543F and 71M6543G
devices can be calculated as:
%252.02520/40)2285( +=+= ppmCppmCC
ooo
and
%248.02480/40)2240( == ppmCppmCC ooo
The above calculation implies that both the voltage and the current measurements are individually
subject to a theoretical maximum error of approximately ±0.25%. When the voltage sample and current
sample are multiplied together to obtain the energy per sample, the voltage error and current error
combine resulting in approximately ±0.5% maximum energy measurement error. However, this
theoretical ±0.5% error considers only the voltage reference (VREF) as an error source. In practice,
other error sources exist in the system. The principal remaining error sources are the current sensors
(shunts or CTs) and their corresponding signal conditioning circuits, and the resistor voltage divider
used to measure the voltage. The 71M6543F and 71M6543G devices should be used in Class 1%
designs, to allow margin for the other error sources in the system.
The preceding discussion in this section also applies to the 71M6603 (0.5%), 71M6113 (0.5%) and
71M6203 (0.1%) remote sensors. Refer to the 71M6xxx Data Sheet for details.
4.5.2 Temperature Coefficients for the 71M6543F and 71M6543G
The equations provided below for calculating TC1 and TC2 apply to the 71M6543F and 71M6543G. In order
to obtain TC1 and TC2, the MPU reads TRIMT[7:0] (I/O RAM 0x2309) and uses the TC1 and TC2 equations
provided. PPMC and PPMC2 are then calculated from TC1 and TC2, as shown. The resulting tracking of
the reference voltage (VREF) is within ±40 ppm/°C.

4.5.4 Temperature Compensation for VREF and Shunt Sensors
This section discusses metrology temperature compensation for the meter designs where current shunt
sensors are used in conjunction with the 71M6xx3 remote isolated sensors, as shown in Figure 31.
Sensors that are directly connected to the 71M6543 are affected by the voltage variation in the 71M6543
VREF due to temperature. On the other hand, shunt sensors that are connected to 71M6xx3 remote
sensor are affected by the VREF in the 71M6xx3. The VREF in both the 71M6543 and 71M6xx3 can be
compensated digitally using a second-order polynomial function of temperature. The 71M6543 and
71M6xx3 feature temperature sensors for the purposes of temperature compensating their corresponding
VREF. The compensation computations must be implemented in MPU firmware.
Referring to Figure 31, the VADC8 (VA), VADC9 (VB) and VADC10 (VC) voltage sensors are always
directly connected to the 71M6543. Thus, the precision of the voltage sensors is primarily affected by
VREF in the 71M6543. The temperature coefficient of the resistors used to implement the voltage dividers
for the voltage sensors (see Figure 27) determine the behavior of the voltage division ratio with respect to
temperature. It is recommended to use resistors with low temperature coefficients, while forming the entire
voltage divider using resistors belonging to the same technology family, in order to minimize the temperature
dependency of the voltage division ratio. The resistors must also have suitable voltage ratings.
The 71M6543 also may have one local current shunt sensor that is connected directly to it via the IADC0-
IADC1 input pins, and therefore this local current sensor is also affected by the VREF in the 71M6543.
The shunt current sensor resistance has a temperature dependency, which also may require
compensation, depending on the required accuracy class.
The IADC2-IADC3, IADC4-IADC5 and IADC6-IADC7 current sensors are isolated by the 71M6xx3 and
depend on the VREF of the 71M6xx3, plus the variation of the corresponding remote shunt current sensor
with temperature.
The MPU has the responsibility of computing the necessary sample gain compensation values required for
each sensor channel based on the sensed temperature. Maxim provides demonstration code that
implements the GAIN_ADJx compensation equation shown below. The resulting GAIN_ADJx values are
stored by the MPU in five CE RAM locations GAIN_ADJ0-GAIN_ADJ5 (CE RAM 0x40-0x44). The
demonstration code thus provides a suitable implementation of temperature compensation, but other
methods are possible in MPU firmware by utilizing the on-chip temperature sensors while storing the
sample gain adjustment results in the CE RAM GAIN_ADJx storage locations for use by the CE. The
demonstration code maintains five separate sets of PPMC and PPMC2 coefficients and computes five
separate GAIN_ADJx values based on the sensed temperature using the equation below:
23
2
14

2_100

_10
16385_ PPMCXTEMPPPMCXTEMP
ADJxGAIN
+
+=
The GAIN_ADJx values stored by the MPU in CE RAM are used by the CE to gain adjust (i.e., multiply)
the sample in each corresponding sensor channel. A GAIN_ADJx value of 16,384 (i.e., 214)corresponds to
unity gain, while values less than 16,384 attenuate the samples and values greater than 16,384 amplify
the samples.
In the above equation, TEMP_X is the deviation from nominal or calibration temperature expressed in
multiples of 0.1 °C. The 10x and 100x factors seen in the above equation are due to 0.1 oC scaling of
TEMP_X. For example, if the calibration (reference) temperature is 22 oC and the measured temperature
is 27 oC, then 10*TEMP_X = (27-22) x 10 = 50 (decimal), which represents a +5 oC deviation from 22oC.
In the demonstration code, TEMP_X is calculated in the MPU from the STEMP[10:0] temperature sensor
reading using the equation provided below and is scaled in 0.1°C units. See 2.5.5 71M6543 Temperature
Sensor on page 53 for the equation to calculate temperature in degrees °C from the STEMP[10:0] value.
Table 66 shows the five GAIN_ADJx equation output storage locations and the voltage or current sensor
channels for which they compensate for the 1 Local / 3 Remote configuration shown in Figure 31.

In the demonstration code, the shape of the temperature compensation second-order parabolic curve is
determined by the values stored in the PPMC (1st order coefficient) and PPMC2 (2nd order coefficient),
which are typically setup by the MPU at initialization time from values that are stored in EEPROM.
To disable temperature compensation in the demonstration code, PPMC and PPMC2 are both set to zero
for each of the five GAIN_ADJx channels. To enable temperature compensation, the PPMC and PPMC2
coefficients are set with values that match the expected temperature variation of the shunt current sensor
(if required) and the corresponding VREF voltage reference (summed together).
The shunt sensor requires a second order polynomial compensation which is determined by the PPMC
and PPMC2 coefficients for the corresponding current measurement channel. The corresponding VREF
voltage reference also requires the PPMC and PPMC2 coefficients to match the second order
temperature behavior of the voltage reference. The PPMC and PPMC2 values associated with the shunt
and with the corresponding VREF are summed together to obtain the compensation coefficients for a
given current-sensing channel (i.e., the 1st order PPMC coefficients are summed together, and the 2nd
order PPMC2 coefficients are summed together).
In the 71M6543F and 71M6543G, the required VREF compensation coefficients PPMC and PPMC2 are
calculated from readable on-chip non-volatile fuses (see 4.5.2 Temperature Coefficients for the
71M6543F). These coefficients are designed to achieve ±40 ppm/°C for VREF in the 71M6543F and
71M6543G. PPMC and PPMC2 coefficients are similarly calculated for the 71M6xx3 remote sensor
(see 4.5.3 Temperature Coefficients for the 71M6xx3).
For the current channels, to determine the PPMC and PPMC2 coefficients for the shunt current
sensors, the designer must either know the average temperature curve of the shunt from its
manufacturer’s data sheet or obtain these coefficients by laboratory characterization of the shunt used
in the design.
4.5.5 Temperature Compensation of VREF and Current Transformers
This section discusses metrology temperature compensation for meter designs where Current
Transformer (CT) sensors are used, as shown in Figure 32.
Sensors that are directly connected to the 71M6543 are affected by the voltage variation in the 71M6543
VREF due to temperature. The VREF in the 71M6543 can be compensated digitally using a second-
order polynomial function of temperature. The 71M6543 features a temperature sensor for the purposes
of temperature compensating its VREF. The compensation computations must be implemented in MPU
firmware and written to the corresponding GAIN_ADJx CE RAM location.
Referring to Figure 32, the VADC8 (VA), VADC9 (VB) and VADC10 (VC) voltage sensors are directly
connected to the 71M6543. Thus, the precision of the voltage sensors is primarily affected by VREF in the
71M6543. The temperature coefficient of the resistors used to implement the voltage dividers for the voltage
sensors (see Figure 27) determine the behavior of the voltage division ratio with respect to temperature. It is
recommended to use resistors with low temperature coefficients, while forming the entire voltage divider
using resistors belonging to the same technology family, in order to minimize the temperature dependency of
the voltage division ratio. The resistors must also have suitable voltage ratings.
The Current Transformers are directly connected to the 71M6543 and are therefore primarily affected by the
VREF temperature dependency in the 71M6543. For best performance, it is recommended to use the
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
v2 91
differential signal conditioning circuit, as shown in Figure 29, to connect the CTs to the 71M6543. Current
transformers may also require temperature compensation. The copper wire winding in the CT has dc
resistance with a temperature coefficient, which makes the voltage delivered to the burden resistor
temperature dependent, and the burden resistor also has a temperature coefficient. Thus, each CT sensor
channel needs to compensate for the 71M6543 VREF, and optionally for the temperature dependency of the
CT and its burden resistor depending on the required accuracy class.
The MPU has the responsibility of computing the necessary sample gain compensation values required for
each sensor channel based on the sensed temperature. Maxim provides demonstration code that
implements the GAIN_ADJx compensation equation shown below. The resulting GAIN_ADJx values are
stored by the MPU in five CE RAM locations GAIN_ADJ0-GAIN_ADJ5 (CE RAM 0x40-0x44). The
demonstration code thus provides a suitable implementation of temperature compensation, but other
methods are possible in MPU firmware by utilizing the on-chip temperature sensor while storing the sample

unity gain, while values less than 16,384 attenuate the samples and values greater than 16,384 amplify
the samples.
In the above equation, TEMP_X is the deviation from nominal or calibration temperature expressed in
multiples of 0.1 °C. The 10x and 100x factors seen in the above equation are due to 0.1 oC scaling of
TEMP_X. For example, if the calibration (reference) temperature is 22 °C and the measured temperature
is 27 °C, then 10*TEMP_X = (27-22) x 10 = 50 (decimal), which represents a +5 °C deviation from 22 °C.
In the demonstration code, TEMP_X is calculated in the MPU from the STEMP[10:0] temperature sensor
reading using the equation provided below and is scaled in 0.1°C units. See 2.5.5 71M6543 Temperature
Sensor on page 53 for the equation to calculate temperature in °C from the STEMP[10:0] reading.
Table 67 shows the five GAIN_ADJx equation output storage locations and the voltage or current
measurements for which they compensate.

In the demonstration code, the shape of the temperature compensation second-order parabolic curve is
determined by the values stored in the PPMC (1st order coefficient) and PPMC2 (2nd order coefficient),
which are typically setup by the MPU at initialization time from values that are stored in EEPROM.
To disable temperature compensation in the demonstration code, PPMC and PPMC2 are both set to zero
for each of the five GAIN_ADJx channels. To enable temperature compensation, the PPMC and PPMC2
coefficients are set with values that match the expected VREF temperature variation and optionally the
71M6543F/71M6543G Data Sheet
92 v2
corresponding sensor circuit (i.e., the CT and burden resistor for current channels or the resistor divider
network for the voltage channels).
In the 71M6543F and 71M6543G, the required VREF compensation coefficients PPMC and PPMC2 are
calculated from readable on-chip non-volatile fuses (see 4.5.2Temperature Coefficients for the
71M6543F). These coefficients are designed to achieve ±40 ppm/°C for VREF.
4.6 Connecting I2C EEPROMs
I2C EEPROMs or other I2C compatible devices should be connected to the DIO pins SEGDIO2 and
SEGDIO3, as shown in Figure 33.
Pullup resistors of roughly 10 k to V3P3D (to ensure operation in BRN mode) should be used for both
SDCK and SDATA signals. The DIO_EEX (I/O RAM 0x2456[7:6]) field must be set to 01 in order to convert
the DIO pins SEGDIO2 and SEGDIO3 to I2C pins SCL and SDATA.
Figure 33: I2C EEPROM Connection
4.7 Connecting Three-Wire EEPROMs
µWire EEPROMs and other compatible devices should be connected to the DIO pins SEGDIO2 and
SEGDIO3, as described in 2.5.11 EEPROM Interface on page 65.
4.8 UART0 (TX/RX)
The UART0 RX pin should be pulled down by a 10 k resistor and additionally protected by a 100 pF
ceramic capacitor, as shown in Figure 34.

4.9 Optical Interface (UART1)
The OPT_TX and OPT_RX pins can be used for a regular serial interface (by connecting a RS_232
transceiver for example), or they can be used to directly operate optical components (for example, an
infrared diode and phototransistor implementing a FLAG interface). Figure 35 shows the basic connections
for UART1. The OPT_TX pin becomes active when the control field OPT_TXE (I/O RAM 0x2456[3:2]) is
set to 01.
The polarity of the OPT_TX and OPT_RX pins can be inverted with the configuration bits, OPT_TXINV
(I/O RAM 0x2456[0]) and OPT_RXINV (I/O RAM 0x2457[1]), respectively.
The OPT_TX output may be modulated at 38 kHz when system power is present. Modulation is not
available in BRN mode. The OPT_TXMOD bit (I/O RAM 0x2456[1]) enables modulation. The duty cycle is
controlled by OPT_FDC[1:0] (I/O RAM 0x2457[5:4]), which can select 50%, 25%, 12.5%, and 6.25% duty
cycle. A 6.25% duty cycle means OPT_TX is low for 6.25% of the period. The OPT_RX pin uses digital
signal thresholds. It may need an analog filter when receiving modulated optical signals.
With modulation, an optical emitter can be operated at higher current than nominal, enabling it to
increase the distance along the optical path.
If operation in BRN mode is desired, the external components should be connected to V3P3D. However,
it is recommended to limit the current to a few mA.
Figure 35: Connection for Optical Components
4.10 Connecting the Reset Pin
Even though a functional meter does not necessarily need a reset switch, it is useful to have a reset
pushbutton for prototyping as shown in Figure 36, left side. The RESET signal may be sourced from
V3P3SYS (functional in MSN mode only), V3P3D (MSN and BRN modes), or VBAT (all modes, if a battery is
present), or from a combination of these sources, depending on the application.
For a production meter, the RESET pin should be protected by the by the external components
shown in Figure 36, right side. R1 should be in the range of 100 and mounted as closely as possible
to the IC.
Since the 71M6543 generates its own power-on reset, a reset button or circuitry, as shown in Figure 36, is
only required for test units and prototypes.

4.11 Connecting the Emulator Port Pins
Even when the emulator is not used, small shunt capacitors to ground (22 pF) should be used for protection
from EMI as illustrated in Figure 37. Production boards should have the ICE_E pin connected to ground.

4.12 Flash Programming
4.12.1 Flash Programming via the ICE Port
Operational or test code can be programmed into the flash memory using either an in-circuit emulator or
the Flash Programmer Module (TFP-2) available from Maxim. The flash programming procedure uses the
E_RST, E_RXTX, and E_TCLK pins.
4.12.2 Flash Programming via the SPI Port
It is possible to erase, read and program the flash memory of the 71M6543 via the SPI port. See 2.5.12
for a detailed description.
4.13 MPU Demonstration Code
All application-specific MPU functions mentioned in 4 Application Information are featured in the
demonstration C source code supplied by Maxim. The code is available as part of the Demonstration Kit
for the 71M6543. The Demonstration Kits come with the 71M6543 preprogrammed with demonstration
firmware and mounted on a functional sample meter Demo Board. The Demo Boards allow for quick and
efficient evaluation of the IC without having to write firmware or having to supply an in-circuit emulator
(ICE).

4.14 Crystal Oscillator
The oscillator of the 71M6543 drives a standard 32.768 kHz watch crystal. The oscillator has been
designed specifically to handle these crystals and is compatible with their high impedance and limited
power handling capability. The oscillator power dissipation is very low to maximize the lifetime of any
battery backup device attached to the VBAT_RTC pin.
Board layouts with minimum capacitance from XIN to XOUT require less battery current. Good layouts
have XIN and XOUT shielded from each other and also keep the XIN and XOUT traces short and away
from LCD and digital signals.
Since the oscillator is self-biasing, an external resistor must not be connected across the crystal.
4.15 Meter Calibration
Once the 71M6543 energy meter device has been installed in a meter system, it must be calibrated. A
complete calibration includes the following:
Establishment of the reference temperature for factory calibration (e.g., typically 22 °C).
Calibration of the metrology section, i.e., calibration for errors of the current sensors, voltage
dividers and signal conditioning components as well as of the internal reference voltage (VREF) at
the reference temperature (e.g., typically 22 °C).
Calibration of the oscillator frequency using the RTCA_ADJ register (I/O RAM 0x2504).
The metrology section can be calibrated using the gain and phase adjustment factors accessible to the
CE. The gain adjustment is used to compensate for tolerances of components used for signal conditioning,
especially the resistive components. Phase adjustment is provided to compensate for phase shifts introduced
by the current sensors or by the effects of reactive power supplies.
Due to the flexibility of the MPU firmware, any calibration method, such as calibration based on energy, or
current and voltage can be implemented. It is also possible to implement segment-wise calibration
(depending on current range).
The 71M6543 supports common industry standard calibration techniques, such as single-point
(energy-only), multi-point (energy, Vrms, Irms), and auto-calibration.
Maxim provides a calibration spreadsheet file to facilitate the calibration process. Contact your Maxim
representative to obtain a copy of the latest calibration spreadsheet file for the 71M6543.

5 Firmware Interface
5.1 I/O RAM Map Functional Order
In Table 68 and Table 69, unimplemented (U) and reserved (R) bits are shaded in light gray. Unimplemented bits are identified with a ‘U’.
Unimplemented bits have no memory storage, writing them has no effect, and reading them always returns zero. Reserved bits are identified with
an ‘R’, and must always be written with a zero. Writing values other than zero to reserved bits may have undesirable side effects and must be
avoided. Non-volatile bits are shaded in dark gray. Non-volatile bits are backed-up during power failures if the system includes a battery connected
to the VBAT pin.
The I/O RAM locations listed in Table 68 have sequential addresses to facilitate reading by the MPU (e.g., in order to verify their contents). These
I/O RAM locations are usually modified only at boot-up. The addresses shown in Table 68 are an alternative sequential address to the addresses
from Table 69 which are used throughout this document. For instance, EQU[2:0] can be accessed at I/O RAM 0x2000[7:5] or at I/O RAM
0x2106[7:5].

5.2 I/O RAM Map Alphabetical Order
Table 70 lists I/O RAM bits and registers in alphabetical order.
Bits with a write direction (W in column Dir) are written by the MPU into configuration RAM. Typically, they are initially stored in flash memory and
copied to the configuration RAM by the MPU. Some of the more frequently programmed bits are mapped to the MPU SFR memory space. The
remaining bits are mapped to the address space 0x2XXX. Bits with R (read) direction can be read by the MPU. Columns labeled Rst and Wk
describe the bit values upon reset and wake, respectively. No entry in one of these columns means the bit is either read-only or is powered by the
NV supply and is not initialized. Write-only bits return zero when they are read.
Locations that are shaded in grey are non-volatile (i.e., battery-backed).

FF
R/W
PLS_MAXWIDTH[7:0] determines the maximum width of the pulse (low-going pulse if
PLS_INV=0 or high-going pulse if PLS_INV=1). The maximum pulse width is
(2*PLS_MAXWIDTH[7:0] + 1)*TI. Where TI is PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] in units of CK_FIR
clock cycles. If PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] = 0 or PLS_MAXWIDTH[7:0] = 255, no pulse
width checking is performed and the output pulses have 50% duty cycle. See 2.3.6.2
VPULSE and WPULSE.
PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] 210B[7:0] 0 0 R/W
PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] determines the interval time between pulses. The time between
output pulses is PLS_INTERVAL[7:0]*4 in units of CK_FIR clock cycles. If
PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] = 0, the FIFO is not used and pulses are output as soon as the CE
issues them. PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] is calculated as follows:
PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] = Floor ( Mux frame duration in CK_FIR cycles / CE pulse updates per Mux
frame / 4 )
For example, since the 71M6543 CE code is written to generate 6 pulses in one integration
interval, when the FIFO is enabled (i.e., PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] 0) and that the frame
duration is 1950 CK_FIR clock cycles, PLS_INTERVAL[7:0] should be written with
Floor(1950 / 6 / 4) = 81 so that the five pulses are evenly spaced in time over the
integration interval and the last pulse is issued just prior to the end of the interval. See
2.3.6.2 VPULSE and WPULSE.

5.3 CE Interface Description
5.3.1 CE Program
The CE performs the precision computations necessary to accurately measure power. These computations
include offset cancellation, phase compensation, product smoothing, product summation, frequency
detection, VAR calculation, sag detection and voltage phase measurement. All data computed by the CE
is dependent on the selected meter equation as given by EQU[2:0] (I/O RAM 0x2106[7:5]).
The standard CE program is supplied by Maxim as a data image that can be merged with the MPU
operational code for meter applications. Typically, this CE program covers most applications and does not
need to be modified. Other variations of CE code may be available from Maxim. The description in this
section applies to CE code revision CE43A01A.
5.3.2 CE Data Format
All CE words are 4 bytes. Unless specified otherwise, they are in 32-bit two’s complement format
(-1 = 0xFFFFFFFF). Calibration parameters are defined in flash memory (or external EEPROM) and
must be copied to CE data memory by the MPU before enabling the CE. Internal variables are used in
internal CE calculations. Input variables allow the MPU to control the behavior of the CE code. Output
variables are outputs of the CE calculations. The corresponding MPU address for the most significant
byte is given by 0x0000 + 4 x CE_address and by 0x0003 + 4 x CE_address for the least significant byte.
5.3.3 Constants
Constants used in the CE Data Memory tables are:
Sampling Frequency: FS = 32768 Hz/15 = 2184.53 Hz.
F0 is the fundamental frequency of the mains phases.
IMAX is the external rms current corresponding to 250 mV pk at each IADC input.
VMAX is the external rms voltage corresponding to 250 mV pk at each VADC input.
NACC, the accumulation count for energy measurements is SUM_SAMPS[12:0] (I/O RAM 0x2107[4:0],
0x2108[7:0]). This value also resides in SUM_PRE (CE RAM 0x23) where it is used for phase angle
measurement.
The duration of the accumulation interval for energy measurements is SUM_SAMPS[12:0] /FS.
X is a gain constant of the pulse generators. Its value is determined by PULSE_FAST and PULSE_SLOW
(see Table 76).
Voltage LSB = VMAX * 7.879810-9 V.
VMAX = 600 V, IMAX = 208 A, and kH = 3.2 Wh/pulse are assumed as default settings.
The system constants IMAX and VMAX are used by the MPU to convert internal digital quantities (as
used by the CE) to external, i.e. metering quantities. Their values are determined by the scaling of the
voltage and current sensors used in an actual meter. The LSB values used in this document relate digital
quantities at the CE or MPU interface to external meter input quantities. For example, if a SAG threshold
of 80 V peak is desired at the meter input, the digital value that should be programmed into SAG_THR (CE
RAM 0x24) would be 80 V/SAG_THRLSB, where SAG_THRLSB is the LSB value in the description of
SAG_THR (Table 77).
The parameters EQU[2:0], CE_E, and SUM_SAMPS[12:0] , essential to the function of the CE are stored in
I/O RAM (see 5.2 for details).

5.3.4 Environment
Before starting the CE using the CE_E bit (I/O RAM 0x2106[0]), the MPU has to establish the proper
environment for the CE by implementing the following steps:
Locate the CE code in Flash memory using CE_LCTN[5:0] (I/O RAM 0x2109[5:0]) in the 71M6543F
and CE_LCTN[6:0] (I/O RAM 0x2109[6:0]) in the 71M6543G.
Load the CE data into RAM.
Establish the equation to be applied in EQU[2:0] (I/O RAM 0x2106[7:5]).
Establish the accumulation period and number of samples in SUM_SAMPS[12:0] (I/O RAM
0x2107[4:0], 0x2108[7:0]).
Establish the number of cycles per ADC multiplexer frame (MUX_DIV[3:0] (I/O RAM 0x2100[7:4])).
Apply proper values to MUXn_SEL, as well as proper selections for DIFFn_E (I/O RAM 0x210C[ ]) and
RMTn_E (I/O RAM 0x2709[ ] in order to configure the analog inputs.
Initialize any MPU interrupts, such as CE_BUSY, XFER_BUSY, or the power-failure detection interrupt.
When different CE codes are used, a different set of environment parameters need to be established.
The exact values for these parameters are listed in the Application Notes and other documentation which
accompanies the CE code.
Operating CE codes with environment parameters deviating from the values specified by Maxim
leads to unpredictable results.
Typically, there are fifteen 32768 Hz cycles per ADC multiplexer frame (see 2.2.2). This means that the
product of the number of cycles per frame and the number of conversions per frame must be 14 (allowing
for one settling cycle). The default configuration is FIR_LEN = 01, I/O RAM 0x210C[1] (two cycles per
conversion) and MUX_DIV[3:0] = 7 (7 conversions per multiplexer cycle).
Sample configurations can be copied from Demo Code provided by Maxim with the Demo Kits.
5.3.5 CE Calculations
Referring to Table 71, The MPU selects the desired equation by writing the EQU[2:0] (I/O RAM
0x2106[7:5]).

5.3.6 CE Front-End Data (Raw Data)
Access to the raw data provided by the AFE is possible by reading CE RAM addresses 0 through A, as
shown in Table 72. In the expression MUXn_SEL[3:0] = x, ‘n’ refers to the multiplexer frame time slot number
and ‘x’ refers to the desired ADC input number or ADC handle (i.e., IADC0 to VADC10, or simply 0 to 10
decimal).
The 71M6543 can support up to eleven sensor inputs, when all the current sensors are configured as
single-ended inputs. If all the current sensor inputs are configured as differential (recommended for
best performance), the number of input sensor channels is reduced to seven (i.e., IADC0-1, IADC2-3,
IADC4-5, IADC6-7, VADC8, VADC9 and VADC10). The MUXn_SEL[3:0] column in Table 72 shows the
MUXn_SEL handles for the various sensor input pins. For example, if differential mode is enabled via
control bit DIFF0_E = 1 (I/O RAM 0x210C[4]), then the IADC0-IADC1 input pins are combined together to
form a single differential input and the corresponding MUXn_SEL handle is 0 (i.e., handle 1 is then unused).
Similarly, the CE RAM location column provides the CE RAM address where the corresponding sample data
is stored. Continuing with the same example, if DIFF0_E = 1, the corresponding CE RAM location where the
samples for the IADC0-IADC1 differential input are stored is CE RAM 0.
The IADC2-3, IADC4-5 and IADC6-7 inputs can be configured as direct-connected sensors (i.e., directly
connected to the 71M6543) or as remote sensors (i.e., using a 71M6xx3 Isolated Sensor). For example, if the
IADC2-3 remote sensor is disabled by RMT2_E = 0 (I/O RAM 0x2007[3]) and differential mode is enabled by
DIFF2_E = 1 (I/O RAM 0x210C[4]), then IADC2-IADC3 form a differential input with a MUXn_SEL handle of 2
(i.e., handle 3 is then unused), and the corresponding samples are stored in CE RAM location 2. If the
remote sensor enable bit RMT2_E = 1, DIFF2_E = x (don’t care), then the MUXn_SEL handle is not required
(i.e., the sensor is not connected to the 71M6543 multiplexer, so MUXn_SEL does not apply), and the
samples corresponding to this remote differential IADC2-IADC3 input are stored in CE RAM location 2
directly by the digital isolation interface (see Figure 2).
The voltage sensor inputs (VADC8, VADC9 and VADC10) are always single-ended inputs and cannot be
configured as remotes, so they do not have any associated configuration bits. VADC8 (VA) has a
MUXn_SEL handle value of 8, and its samples are stored in CE RAM location 8. VADC9 (VB) has a
MUXn_SEL handle value of 9 and its samples are stored in CE RAM location 9. VADC10 (VC) has a
MUXn_SEL handle value of 10 and its samples are stored in CE RAM location 10.

5.3.7 CE Status and Control
The CE Status Word is useful for generating early warnings to the MPU (Table 73). It contains sag warnings
for phase A, B, and C, as well as F0, the derived clock operating at the fundamental input frequency. The
MPU can read the CE status word at every CE_BUSY interrupt. Since the CE_BUSY interrupt occurs at
the sample rate (i.e., 2520.6 Hz for MUX_DIV[3:0]=6 or 2184.5 Hz for MUX_DIV[3:0]=7), it is desirable to
minimize the computation required in the interrupt handler of the MPU.
Table 73: CESTATUS Register
CE Address Name Description
0x80
CESTATUS
See description of CESTATUS bits in Table 74.
CESTATUS provides information about the status of voltage and input AC signal frequency, which are useful
for generating an early power fail warning to initiate necessary data storage. CESTATUS represents the
status flags for the preceding CE code pass (CE_BUSY interrupt). The significance of the bits in
CESTATUS is shown in Table 74.

The CE is initialized by the MPU using CECONFIG (Table 75). This register contains in packed form
SAG_CNT, FREQSEL0, FREQSEL1, EXT_PULSE, PULSE_SLOW, and PULSE_FAST. The CECONFIG bit
definitions are given in Table 76.

temperature compensation is enabled.
The CE pulse generator can be controlled by either the MPU (external) or CE (internal) variables. Control is by
the MPU if EXT_PULSE = 1. In this case, the MPU controls the pulse rate by placing values into APULSEW and
APULSER (CE RAM 0x45 and 0x49). By setting EXT_PULSE = 0, the CE controls the pulse rate based on
WSUM_X (CE RAM 0x84) and VARSUM_X (CE RAM 0x88).
The 71M6543 Demo Code creep function halts both internal and external pulse generation.

The FREQSEL[1:0] field in CECONFIG (CE RAM 0x20[7:6]) selects the phase that is utilized to generate a sag
interrupt. Thus, a SAG_INT event occurs when the selected phase has satisfied the sag event criteria as
set by the SAG_THR (CE RAM 0x24) register and the SAG_CNT field in CECONFIG (CE RAM 0x20[19:8]).
When the SAG_INT bit (CE RAM 0x20[20]) is set to 1, a sag event generates a transition on the YPULSE
output. After a sag interrupt, the MPU should change the FREQSEL[1:0] setting to select the other phase,
if it is powered. Even though a sag interrupt is only generated on the selected phase, all three phases
are simultaneously checked for sag. The presence of power on a given phase can be sensed by directly
checking the SAG_A, SAG_B and SAG_C bits in CESTATUS (CE RAM 0x80[0:1]).
The EXT_TEMP bit enables temperature compensation by the MPU, when set to 1. When 0, internal (CE)
temperature compensation is enabled.

The CE pulse generator can be controlled by either the MPU (external) or CE (internal) variables. Control is by

pulse generation) by placing values into APULSEW and APULSER (CE RAM 0x45 and 0x49). By setting
EXT_PULSE = 0, the CE controls the pulse rate based on WSUM_X (CE RAM 0x84) and VARSUM_X (CE

5.3.8 CE Transfer Variables
When the MPU receives the XFER_BUSY interrupt, it knows that fresh data is available in the transfer
variables. CE transfer variables are modified during the CE code pass that ends with an XFER_BUSY
interrupt. They remain constant throughout each accumulation interval. In this data sheet, the names of
CE transfer variables always end with _X. The transfer variables can be categorized as:
Fundamental energy measurement variables
Instantaneous (RMS) values
Other measurement parameters
Fundamental Energy Measurement Variables
Table 78 describes each transfer variable for fundamental energy measurement. All variables are signed
32-bit integers. Accumulated variables such as WSUM are internally scaled so they have at least 2x
margin before overflow when the integration time is one second. Additionally, the hardware does not permit
output values to fold back upon overflow.

The RMS values can be computed by the MPU from the squared current and voltage samples as follows:
Other transfer variables include those available for frequency and phase measurement, and those reflecting
the count of the zero-crossings of the mains voltage and the battery voltage. These transfer variables are
listed in Table 82.
MAINEDGE_X reflects the number of half-cycles accounted for in the last accumulated interval for the AC
signal of the phase specified in the FREQSEL[1 :0] field of the CECONFIG register (CE RAM 0x20[7:6]) .

Angle in degrees is (0 to 360): PH_AtoC_X * 360/NACC + 4.8*15/13 (for Shunt)
Phase angle measurement accuracy can be increased by writing values > 1 into V_ANG_CNT
(V_ANG_CNT indicates how many accumulation periods to sum PH_AtoB_X and PH_AtoC_X
over. The MPU then has to divide by that number. For standard CE codes that support shunts
with remotes, V_ANG_CNT is at CE address 0x53. For standard CE codes that support shunts
with CT, V_ANG_CNT is at CE address 0x55. For other than standard CE codes, please contact
Maxim for information).
5.3.9 Pulse Generation
Table 83 describes the CE pulse generation parameters.
The combination of the CECONFIG PULSE_SLOW (CE RAM 0x20[0]) and PULSE_FAST (CE RAM 0x20[1])
bits controls the speed of the pulse rate. The default values of 0 and 0 maintain the original pulse rate
given by the Kh equation.
WRATE (CE RAM 0x21) controls the number of pulses that are generated per measured Wh and VARh
quantities. The lower WRATE is the slower the pulse rate for measured energy quantity. The metering
constant Kh is derived from WRATE as the amount of energy measured for each pulse. That is, if Kh =

1Wh/pulse, a power applied to the meter of 120 V and 30 A results in one pulse per second. If the load is
240 V at 150 A, ten pulses per second are generated.
Control is transferred to the MPU for pulse generation if EXT_PULSE = 1 (CE RAM 0x20[5]). In this case,
the pulse rate is determined by APULSEW and APULSER (CE RAM 0x45 and 0x49). The MPU has to load
the source for pulse generation in APULSEW and APULSER to generate pulses. Irrespective of the
EXT_PULSE status, the output pulse rate controlled by APULSEW and APULSER is implemented by the CE
only. By setting EXT_PULSE = 1, the MPU is providing the source for pulse generation. If EXT_PULSE is 0,
W0SUM_X and VAR0SUM_X are the default pulse generation sources. In this case, creep cannot be
controlled since it is an MPU function.
The maximum pulse rate is 3*FS = 7.5 kHz.
See 2.3.6.2 VPULSE and WPULSE (page 27) for details on how to adjust the timing of the output pulses.
The maximum time jitter is 1/6 of the multiplexer cycle period (nominally 67 µs) and is independent of the
number of pulses measured. Thus, if the pulse generator is monitored for one second, the peak jitter is
67 ppm. After 10 seconds, the peak jitter is 6.7 ppm. The average jitter is always zero. If it is attempted
to drive either pulse generator faster than its maximum rate, it simply outputs at its maximum rate without
exhibiting any rollover characteristics. The actual pulse rate, using WSUM as an example, is:

These constants control the gain of their respective channels. The
nominal value for each parameter is 214 = 16384. The gain of each
channel is directly proportional to its CAL parameter. Thus, if the
gain of a channel is 1% low, CAL should be increased by 1%.

Note:
The current sensor inputs are not assigned to the A, B and C phases in a fixed manner. The
assignments of phases A, B and C depends on how the IADC0-1, IADC2-3, IADC4-5, IADC6-7 current
sensing inputs are connected in the meter design. The CE code must be aware of these connections.
See Figure 31 and Figure 32 for typical meter configurations. VADC8, VADC9 and VADC10 are
assigned to voltage phases VA, VB and VC in a fixed manner, respectively.
The CE addresses listed in this table are assigned to phases A, B and C as indicated by their names.

I 6
Differential or Single-Ended Analog Line Current Sense
Inputs. These pins are voltage inputs to the internal A/D
converter. Typically, they are connected to the outputs of
current sensors. Unused pins must be connected to
V3P3A.
When configured as differential inputs (i.e., by setting the
DIFFx_E control bits, where x = 0, 2, 4, 6) pins are paired to
form differential inputs pairs: IADC0-IADC1, IADC2-IADC3,
IADC4-IADC5, and IADC6-IADC7.
IADC2-IADC3, IADC4-IADC5, and IADC6-IADC7 can be
configured for communication with the 71M6xx3 remote
isolated sensor interface (i.e., by setting the RMTx_E
control bits, where x = 2, 4, 6). When configured as remote
sensor interfaces, these pins form balanced digital pairs for
bidirectional digital communications with a 71M6xx3
remote isolated sensor.

Crystal Inputs. A 32 kHz crystal should be connected
across these pins. Typically, a 15 pF capacitor is also
connected from XIN to GNDA and a 10 pF capacitor is
connected from XOUT to GNDA. It is important to
minimize the capacitance between these pins. See the
crystal manufacturer data sheet for details. If an external
clock is used, a 150 mV (p-p) clock signal should be
applied to XIN, and XOUT should be left unconnected.
