EVALSTPM34, EVALSTPM33, EVALSTPM32 evaluation board

Introduction

This user manual describes the EVALSTPM34, EVALSTPM33, EVALSTPM32 evaluation board.

The STPM3x is an ASSP family of mixed signals designed for high accuracy measurement of power

and energy in power line systems using the Rogowski coil, current transformer or shunt current sensors.

According to p/n, the device has up to two voltages and two current channels, for energy measurement

in dual-phase and single-phase (with or without neutral current monitoring) electricity metering systems.

The STPM3x devices provide instantaneous voltage and current waveforms and calculate voltage and

current RMS values, active, reactive and apparent powers and energies for each channel. Moreover,

they embed a full set of calibration and compensation parameters which allow the meter to fit tight

accuracy standards (EN 50470-x, IEC 62053-2x, ANSI12.2x for AC watt meters). All calculated data, as

well as configuration parameters, are stored in internal 32-bit registers accessible through SPI or UART

peripheral. Three boards are available for evaluation purpose:

EVALSTPM34 board with 2 CT

EVALSTPM33 board with CT and shunt

EVALSTPM32 board with shunt

The main features of these boards are:

0.2% accuracy single-phase meter reference design

USB port for connection to the isolated hardware programmer STEVAL-IPE023V1 and PC GUI

RS232 and UART isolated port for connection to PC GUI

SPI/UART switch for device peripheral selection

2x programmable LEDs on-board

Digital expansion to external system-on-chip or MCU

Power supply 3.3 V: external or through the STEVAL-IPE023V1 isolated USB board

IEC61000 standard compliant

1.1 Safety rules

These boards can be connected to the mains voltage (230 V/110 V). In the case of

improper use, wrong installation or malfunction, there is a danger of serious personal injury

and damage to property. All operations such as: transport, installation, and commissioning,

as well as maintenance, should be carried out by skilled technical personnel (national

accident prevention rules must be observed) only.

2.1.2 Power supply

The board does not contain a power supply. VCC = 3.3 V DC supply should be provided

externally, by J7 connector. If the board is interfaced to PC by the STEVAL-IPE023V1

isolated dongle, it provides the board with supply. Since UART section is isolated, to use

either RS232 or J2 UART connectors, a different isolated 3.3 V supply must be provided

through J2 connector.

2.1.3 Enable and reset

The STPM3x enable pin should be shorted to VCC by keeping J4 jumper in EN position. To

reset the device, this jumper has to be in OFF position (GND).

2.1.5 SPI connection

To communicate with the device using the STEVAL-IPE023V1 isolated USB dongle, the

STPM3x SPI peripheral has to be selected. All SWC1 switches have to be in OFF position

before the device powers up. SPI pins are available in J6 connector for 10-pin flat cable

interfacing either to the STEVAL-IPE023V1 or to an external MCU.

2.1.6 UART connection

UART peripheral also communicates to the device. In this case, all SWC1 switches should

be in ON position when the device powers up. RS232 port is isolated from the board

through Si8621 transceiver to safely connect the board to PC; in this case, J3 jumper has

to be connected. UART isolated pins are also available on J2 connector for MCU

connection; in this case J3 jumper has to be disconnected. If UART connection is used, a

separate 3.3 VDC has to be provided to UART section.

2.1.7 Metrology

Current sensing is performed by CT or shunt, while voltage is sensed by voltage

dividers.The EVALSTPM34 board has two currents and two voltage channels, while the

EVALSTPM33 has two currents and one voltage channel, the EVALSTPM32 has one

current and one voltage channel available. Main design parameters are listed in the below

table.

A 22 nF capacitor in parallel with R2 implements an antialiasing filter for voltage signal.

Regarding to current signal, the antialiasing filter is given by a 10 nF capacitor and 1 kOhm

resistors.

2.1.8 LED

Two LEDs are connected to programmable LED pins of the device.

2.1.9 Clock

Clocking is provided to the board through 16 MHz quartz. 1 MOhm resistor and 15 pF

capacitors are used to filter noise.

2.1.10 Voltage reference

The STPM34 and STPM33 devices embed two internal independent voltage references.

J11 jumper shorts VREF, or it can be used to connect the external precision voltage

reference. The external reference should be connected between the desired VREF and

GND, if a single reference has to be used for both channels, VREF1 and VREF2 should be

shorted by J11.

2.2 Connection to the line

The board can be connected to line voltage and current in several ways, as shown in below

pictures.

Please note that, in boards using shunt, the shunt is at the same potential of voltage

neutral faston and therefore it is at the same potential of the board GND. When isolated

power sources are used or phantom loads, this is not important. In case of connection to

the mains, this has to be taken into account since, according to the wire connected to the

shunt, the board GND may be either at the 0 or 230 V potential.
