9. Industry Leading Input Voltage Tolerance and ESD Capability

Typical Applications for the TPAFE51760

Typical Applications for the TPAFE51760

The following flow diagram displays a representative application for DTUs/FTUs in the power industry, where the three-phase voltage and current signals from the power transmission network are input to the ADC either directly after passing through two stages of voltage/current transformers or after signal conditioning through operational amplifiers. The ADC converts these analog signals into digital signals, which are then processed and controlled by the subsequent MCUs.

Thanks to the TPAFE51760's integrated front-end analog signal processing circuit, which has an input voltage range of up to ±10 V, a signal conditioning circuit should not be required for most applications.
