Bits 31:0 – FREQ[31:0] Frequency of Fundamental Harmonic (uQ20.12)

Frequency of the line voltage fundamental harmonic component is determined by the Metrology module and provided in the variable FREQ, using the dominant phase. In addition, a separate frequency is determined for each individual voltage phase, for each of three phases, x = [A, B, C].

Note: Maximum accuracy in frequency measurement is achieved at the end of the integration period. Therefore, the register should be read immediately after the integration interrupt is generated. However, since this register is updated each time a positive zero-crossing in the voltage line is detected, it is possible to read the register after the full cycle interrupt, enabling a faster refresh of the value.
