Error Estimation

The following error sources are used to estimate the total measurement error:

  • TPS4141-Q1 HV input offset error, VOFFSET_HV, ±240mV.
  • TPS4141-Q1 HV gain error, GAINERROR, ±0.25%.
  • ADC absolute accuracy, ADCACC. For BQ79731-Q1, ±1.5mV.

For uni-directional operation, Equation 3 is used to estimate the maximum and minimum AOUT voltage for a full scale range of VHV = 1000V, DIVNOM = 320V/V, and VREF = 0V:

Equation 7. V A O U T = 1 ± 0.0025 × 1000 V ± 0.24 V 320
Equation 8. V A O U T _ M A X = 3.13356 V         V A O U T _ M I N = 3.11644 V

The AOUT voltage with no error source contribution (VAOUT_IDEAL) can be found using Equation 1 with VREF = 0V:

Equation 9. V A O U T _ I D E A L = 1000 V 320 = 3.125 V

Using VAOUT_MAX, VAOUT_MIN, and VAOUT_IDEAL, the total full scale range percentage error is ±0.274%. This may also be found by directly using Equation 6:

Equation 10. % E R R O R R E L = ± 100 % × 1 + 0.25 100 × 1 + 0.24 1000 - 1 = ± 0.274 %

The ADC measurement error at full scale range is:

Equation 11. % E R R O R A D C = ± 100 % × 1.5 m V 3.125 V = ± 0.048 %

Adding these error contributions leads to a total estimated error of ±0.322%.
