NORWOOD, Mass. -- (Business Wire)
Analog
Devices, Inc. (ADI) today announced a data acquisition system (DAS)
that enhances smart grid equipment monitoring in order to protect
equipment from harmful system faults and improve power delivery to
residences and businesses. As electricity demand grows and renewable
energy generation is added, utility companies must increase the scope,
granularity and accuracy of monitoring points across the distribution
grid. Current data acquisition systems often require complex design work
and expensive integration that can exceed the needs of the application.
The new DAS supports Class 0.2 measurement accuracy and enables the
development of faster, more sensitive and affordable fault detection
equipment that helps protection relay operators minimize the high costs
associated with repairing and replacing damaged components.

Data Acquisition System Protects Smart Grid Equipment from Harmful Faults While Improving Power Delivery
The AD7616 DAS simplifies designs and lowers system costs by reducing
the need for multiple parts in high-channel count applications by
integrating dual simultaneous sampling of 16 channels. The AD7616
operates from a single 5 V supply and can accommodate ±10 V, ±5 V, and
±2.5 V true bipolar input signals while sampling at throughput rates up
to 1 MSPS per channel pair. Additionally, the device’s input structure
eliminates the need for additional external protection circuits or
external signal conditioning that add cost. On-chip filtering and high
input impedance (1M ohm) eliminate the need for driver op-amps and
external bipolar supplies. High accuracy on-chip ADCs provide a 90 dB
SNR, enabling Class 0.2 measurement accuracy compliance and producing
more accurate, reliable, time coherent data. Higher SNR performance of
92 dB can be achieved by using the on-chip oversampling mode.
The AD7616 DAS is suitable for a range of distribution applications such
as relay protection for low-voltage distribution and feeder terminal
units. The new device is also ideal for multiphase motor control and
industrial instrumentation applications.
