La carte Click Board™ PAC1954 est une carte complémentaire compacte qui contient une solution de surveillance de l'énergie. Cette carte comprend le PAC1954, un moniteur d'alimentation/d'énergie CC à quatre canaux de Microchip Technology. Il utilise un étalonnage en temps réel pour minimiser les erreurs de décalage et de gain sans qu'aucun filtre d'entrée ne soit requis pour cet appareil. L'une des principales caractéristiques de la conception du PAC1954 est un ensemble de comparateurs numériques qui permettent à l'utilisateur de détecter les surtensions/sous-tensions, les surintensités/sous-intensités et les surpuissances par rapport aux limites programmées par l'utilisateur pour chaque canal et de générer une alerte lorsque le seuil est dépassé.
Le PAC1954 Click Board™ effectue des calculs de puissance et une accumulation d'énergie, permettant une surveillance de l'énergie avec des périodes d'intégration allant jusqu'à un an ou plus.
How Does The PAC1954 Click Board™ Work?
The PAC1954 Click Board™ as its foundation uses the PAC1954, a four-channel energy monitoring solution with bus voltage monitors and current sense amplifiers that feed high-resolution ADCs from Microchip Technology. Its real-time calibration minimizes offset and gain errors. Built-in 8x averaging feature makes low noise high-resolution measurement results. There are four current sense shunt resistors connected to PAC1954's integrated current sense amplifier. Electricity is brought to shunts via screw terminals where the middle screw connector represents GND used for bus voltage monitoring. Bus voltage, sense resistor voltage, and accumulated proportional power are stored in registers for retrieval by the MCU.
One major feature of the PAC1954 design is a set of digital comparators that allows the user to detect over/under voltage, over/undercurrent, and overpower against user-programmed limits for each channel and generate an alert when the threshold is exceeded. Digital circuitry of the PAC1954 performs power calculations and energy accumulation, which enables energy monitoring with integration periods up to one year or longer. After the Start-Up sequence, the PAC1954 is in the Active state and begins sampling the inputs sequentially. Voltage and current are sampled for all active channels at 1024 samples/second by default, and power is calculated and accumulated.
The PAC1954 Click Board™ communicates with MCU using the standard I2C 2-Wire interface to read data and configure settings, supporting Fast Mode operation with a clock frequency up to 1MHz. Besides, it also allows the choice of the least significant bit of its I2C slave address by positioning the SMD jumper labelled as ADDR SEL to an appropriate position marked as 0 and 1. The Power-Down pin, labelled as EN and routed to the CS pin of the mikroBUS™ socket, optimizes power consumption and is used for power on/off purposes. All circuits, including the interface pins, are inactive in this state, and the PAC1954 is in the form of minimum power dissipation.
The SLW pin, routed to the RST pin of the mikroBUS™ socket, serves as the conversion rate control. If the SLW pin is asserted, the sample rate is eight samples per second. For sampling rates lower than 1024 samples/second, the PAC1954 is in a Sleep mode for a portion of the conversion cycle, which results in lower power dissipation. No matter the programmed sample rate, this new sample rate will affect the following conversion cycle.
The alert functionality, routed to the INT pin of the mikroBUS™ socket, has multiple purposes; to notify the system that a conversion cycle for all active channels is complete, or to notify the system that the accumulator or accumulator count has overflowed, or that an electrical parameter is outside the programmed limit. Besides the INT pin, the SLW pin can function as another alert feature by attaching a pull-up resistor to it, which is done via onboard SMD jumper labelled as SLW PULL by positioning 10k resistor to an appropriate position marked as DOWN or UP.
The PAC1954 Click Board™ can operate with both 3.3V and 5V logic voltage levels selected via the VCC SEL jumper. This way, it is allowed for both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs to use the I2C communication lines properly. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing easy-to-use functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.

Software Support
We provide a library for the PAC1954 Click Board™ on our LibStock page, as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Library Description
This library offers a full control of the PAC1954 Click Board™. The main functions are: modification of any configuration register; status, configuration and data registers reading; executing an all necessary conversions and calculations to get entire data in standard units. For more details, please, check the full documentation.
Key Functions
void pac1954_single_write( uint8_t reg_addr, uint8_t data_in );- This function writes single data byte to the selected register.void pac1954_refresh_cmd( void );- The readable registers for the VBUS, VSENSE, Power, accumulator outputs and accumulator count are updated by the REFRESH command and the values will be static until the next REFRESH command.float pac1954_get_calc_measurement( uint8_t meas_sel, uint8_t ch_sel, uint8_t avg_sel, uint8_t meas_mode );- This function will call function for getting the selected measurement data and will perform all necessary calculations to get measurement value in standard unit.
