  1. Operating Modes 1.1. Semi-auto calibration scheme ES252 includes DMM & C lamp-on meter features in single chip. DMM manufacturers need the calibration process in production. The traditional solution needs the variable resistors for calibration by manual adjustment. ES252 provide another calibration scheme and the most variable resistors could be ignored. When ES252 is at OFF -state, pull CALEN (pin 75) to V- to active the calibration scheme after re- power on. A digital controlled voltage output will be act ive from DACO. When semi-auto calibration scheme is active, use HOLD (or REL) key to decrease voltage and use RANGE (or MMX) key to increase the voltage. Decrease the reference voltage means the counts on display will be increased. Increase the reference v oltage means the counts on display will be decreased. The adjustment step is approximate one count. If coarse adjustment is required, push HOLD (or REL) and RANGE (or MMX) larger than one second to speed up to approximate 10 counts per second. After calibr ation process is finished, push HOLD (or REL) and RANGE (or MMX) simultaneously less than 1 second to save the digital control led code to external EEPROM (24LC02). The semi-auto calibration scheme supports the following eleven measurement modes. When CALEN pin is active, set the proper function switches or push KEY to choose the target measurement mode. When mode is selected, the LCD segment of Unit at related measurement will be blinking.

Set to V- to select the initial range at 200.0V and set to floating state to select the initial range at 2.000V. The ES252 support the hazardous live voltage warning. When the voltage measured exceeds the level defined, the buzzer generates 2KHz beep and ALARM (pin 34) drive high output (V+ level) periodically. It can remind the user to notice the hazardous voltage. The buzzer sound warning could be cancelled by DISDGB (pin40). 1.2.1. OL Selection ES252 has a voltage OL selection feature archived by configuring the pin CESEL (pin33). In automatic voltage mode, ES252 will show OL when the voltage exceeds the defaulted level. If CESEL is connected to V-, ES252 will have a 1010V overflow level in voltage mode. If CESEL connected to DGND , the overflow leve l will be set to 610V in DCV and ACV mode.

In order to obtain an accurate reading, a capaci tor must be discharged before measurement begins. The chip has a built-in discharge mode to automatically discharge the capacitor. In discharge mode, the main -display shows dIS.C. Discharging through the chip is quite slow. We recommend users to discharge the capacitor with some other apparatus. 2. The C2 range is calibrated in calibration scheme. 3. The C1 range residual offset could be compensated by the small capacitors near to OVH pin.

V 1.5 12 2016/04/27 ES252 1.7. Continuity Check Continuity check shares the same configuration w ith 200.0Ω manual resistance measurement mode and has buzzer output to indicate continuity. The buzzer generates 2KHz beep and ALARM (pin 34) drive high output (V+ level) whenever the reading is less than 30Ω. The ES252 built in a high-speed short detection circuit and the detection could be less than 10ms. 1.8. Diode Measurement Diode measurement mode shares the same configuration with 2.000V manual voltage measurement mode and has buzzer output to indicate continuity. The buzzer generates a 2KHz sound and A LARM (pin 34) drive high output (V+ level) whenever the reading is less than 30mV . If the test circuit is open or the voltage drop between the two ports of the diode under test is larger than 2V or 2.8 V (depends on DIOV pin level), the LCD panel will show “OL”. DIOV DGND/Floating V- OL 2.000V 2.80V The ES252 also support a LED forward voltage measurement mode. It is necessary to use external source to achieve the measurement.

V 1.5 13 2016/04/27 ES252 1.9. Frequency Counter The time base of the frequency counter is derived from an external crystal oscillator by Tcounter = 4,000,000 Fosc Where Fosc is the frequency of the crystal oscillator. Thus, the counter has a 1- second time base when a 4MHz oscillator is used. The frequency counter can select the proper range automatically or manually. Auto-range operation extends over six decades, from 200.0Hz to 20.00MHz. The following table summarizes the Full-Scale range of the frequency counter. Range Full Scale FR1 200.0Hz FR2 2.000KHz FR3 20.00KHz FR4 200.0KHz FR5 2.000MHz FR6 20.00MHz *If input frequency is less than 1.0Hz, ES252 will show 0.0Hz 1.10. Electrical field detection mode ES252 supports a non- contact AC voltage measurement, which is called electric field measurement also. The ADC input is configured from ADP pin vs. SGND. When no or less electric field is detected, the LCD display shows “EF”. If the electric field is detected, the strength will be showed on the LCD display by “-“ not digits type. Level 1(equivalent to 12.5% full scale of ADC) is “ -“ and the level 4(equivalent to 100% full scale of ADC) is “ ----“. Additional beeper (BUZOUT pin) and LED alarm (ALARM pin) will be active from ES252. The frequency of buzzer and LED alarm depends on the strength of electric field also. The f aster beeper means the stronger electric field (AC voltage) is sensed. Mode FC1~4 SLACDC Input Terminal EF 1,1,1,0 1 ADP V .S.

V 1.5 14 2016/04/27 ES252 1.11. Temperature Measurement mode Temperature measurement mode takes input signal from TEMPin (pin2). The ES252 has ºC to ºF scale translation circuit and standard K-type thermocouple reference table is built-in. External cold-junction compensa tion circuit is still necessary. In temperature measurement mode, there is automatic mode and manual mode . The TSEL pin (pin45) is used to control the automatic mode (0.1OC/1OC resolution) or manual mode (0.1OC resolution) selection. TSYMB (pin 44) could enable or disable display of input terminal symbol on the LCD panel (SEG18). Manual range Auto Range ºC range -200.0 ºC ~ 200.0 ºC -200.0 ºC ~ 200.0 ºC / 1350 ºC ºF range -328.0 ºF ~ 392.0 ºF -328.0 ºF ~ 392.0 ºF / 2462 ºF 1.12. ADP ES252 provides 4 man ual range ADP measurement modes for user define. The ADP pin is auxiliary input terminal for ADC of ES252. The full scale for ADP mode is 200.0mV. If FC5=0, the minus sign will not be shown on LCD segment. Mode FC1~4 SLACDC Full Scale Input Terminal CAL ADP0 0,0,1,1 1 2000 ADP V .S. SGND Yes ADP1 0,0,0,1 1 200.0 ADP V .S.

V 1.5 15 2016/04/27 ES252 1.13. Auto Power Off And Idle Time Selection ES252 has a default auto power off function. If the meter is idle for more than the given idle time duration, the chip automatically turns the power off. The idle time to trigger the auto power off function is determined by APOSEL (pin 42). If APOSEL is connected to V-, the idle time will be set to 30 minutes. If pin APOSEL is floating, the i dle Time will be set to 15 minutes. When APO is occurred, the state of the meter is reserved. The APO symbol on the LCD panel indicates whether the auto power off is enabled or not. In some cases, user might want to disable Auto power off. There are two ways to disable this feature as following: 1. Power on the meter when any of the push functions, except for HOLD, is pressed down. 2. In addition, when RS232 output is active, the auto power off function is also disabled automatically. Note: Powering on the meter while pressing HOLD and lasts 2 seconds turns on all LCD segments until HOLD is pressed again. 1.14. Sleep The meter enters sleep mode after auto power off. The SLEEP (pin 78) asserts low (V-) in the sleep mode, and asserts high (V+, not 0V) after re-power on. 1.15. Re-Power On After auto power-off, pushing any of the push function or changing the rotary mode can turn on the meter again. If the meter is re-powered on by changing the rotary mode, the saved state is cleared. If the meter is re -powered on by push functions, the chip restores the saved state and enters HOLD mode.

Of course, the indication could support LCD symbol /LED /Buzzer driving simultaneously. Especially ES252 could detect the AC voltage in DCV mode and detects the DC voltage in ACV mode. It means if not proper AC or DC voltage signal exists on the DUT when DCV or ACV measurement mode is set, the HV indication will be active. HV indication criterion Function / Range Input DC voltage (typ.) Input AC voltage (typ.) AC mV > +3V OL AC 2V > +20V OL AC 20V – 1000V > +100V > 30V DC mV OL > 3Vrms (40-1kHz) DC 2V OL > 20Vrms (40-1kHz) DC 20V-1000V > 30V or < -30V > 90Vrms (40-1kHz) Frequency modes > 70V or < -70V > 40Vrms (40-1kHz) Res/Cap/Diode modes > 10V or < -10V > 10Vrms (40-1kHz) Note: If AC+DC signal is applied, the voltage criterion will be changed.

V 1.5 17 2016/04/27 ES252 1.17. Multi-level Low Battery Voltage Detection ES252 provides a voltage detection input (pin 91: LBAT) for multi- level low battery ap plication. There are two internal voltage reference Vt1 & Vt2 for comparing with LBAT . If LBAT is larger than Vt1, the LCD segment of SLB 1 – SLB3 will active always. This status implies Full battery. When LBAT is less than Vt1 but larger than Vt2, the LCD segment of SLB 1 will disappear and this status implies Half battery. When LBAT is less than Vt2, the LCD segment of SLB2 will disappear and this status implies l ow battery. When the Low battery status lasts for 10 seconds, the LCD segment of SLB3 will be b linking. When the SLB 3 is blinking for ~ 20 seconds, the operation of meter will be inhibited and LCD panel will show “ Lo.bt” symbol. In this case, it is suggested to replace a new battery immediately. After “Lo.bt” appears and lasts for around 80 seconds, ES252 will enter to auto power off mode instantly.

HOLD and RS232 output Feature HOLD mode makes the meter stop updating the LCD panel. This mode can be nested in most of the special modes. Enabling HO LD function in automatic mode makes the meter switch to manual mode, but the Full-Scale range remains the same. ES252 provides a RS232 output feature. To activate RS232 output feature, press down the HOLD key and last for 2 seconds. The meter will enable UART port output from RSOUT. (Please see section 4.) 3.3. KEY See Section “Measurement Mode Switching” for the function of this pin. 3.4. REL + HOLD In REL mode, the LCD panel displays DN+K - DN, where N = 1, 2, 3, … , D N is the last value before REL key is pushed, and DN+K is the current value. The meter returns to normal operation if REL is pressed again. Pressing HOLD in REL mode makes the meter stop updating the LCD panel. Note: 1. It’s possible that relative value (DN+K - DN) exceeds 2,000 or -2,000 counts. The LCD shows OL in REL mode only if DN or DN+K is more than 2,000 counts.

When MMX key is pressed for the first time, the meter displays the maximum v alue. The meter displays the minimum value, when it is pressed again. When MMX key is pressed for the third time, the meter displays current value. The meter returns to normal operation if MMX is pressed and held for longer than one second. Pressing HOLD in Max/Min mode makes the meter stop updating the maximum or the minimum value.

V 1.5 24 2016/04/27 ES252 3.6. ZERO Function 999.9A/2000A (please refer to section 1.4) mesurement modes, ES252 provides ZERO function to remove the residual current value. Push REL key less than one second to enter ZERO mode. In ZERO mode, the LCD panel displays D N+K - DN, where N = 1, 2, 3, … , D N is the last conversion value before REL key is pushed, and D N+K is the current conversion value. If REL key is pushed again in ZERO mode, the meter will refresh the D N value and displays the D N+K - DN again. The meter returns to normal operation if REL key is pressed and held for longer than one second. Pressing HOLD in ZERO mode makes the meter stop updating the LCD panel. In 2- range auto DCA modes for clampmeter ( 200.0A/2000A or 20.00 A/999.9A), the system will stay in automatic mode, even if the ZERO function is activated. In other words, It could achieve real automatic operation. In automatic mode, ZERO function could not be entered from higher range, but it could be still activated if current range is lower one. This is because most residual current value is so small that the range could not be higher one in autom atic mode. When enter ZERO mode from lower range, the system will store the nonzero counts (residual current value). If the range goes up to higher one automatically, the nonzero counts will be divided by ten. So this function will still work well in automatic modes.  State diagram for ZERO mode :  State diagram for ZERO + HOLD mode : Original State ‘Zero’ Active Show DN+K - DN Press Zero > 1s Press Zero Press Zero < 1s Original State Show DN+K - DN Press Zero > 1s Press Zero Press Zero < 1s ‘Hold’ Active Stop LCD upgrading Press Hold

V 1.5 26 2016/04/27 ES252 3.8. Phase-rotation detection The ES252 provide the phase rotation to find the phase sequence of 3- phase of power source. The function will be available when user push VAHz key larger than one second. The initial range will be set to 200.0V range when phase -rotation mode is selected. Set COM terminal to the 1 st voltage source and Vin terminal to the 2nd voltage source. The LOCK symbol of LCD segment starts blinking when ACV measurement is less than 80Vrms. When the AC voltage measurement is larger than 80Vrms (40 ~ 80Hz), the LOCK symbol will stop blinking and it means the 1 st phase is locked. Then set Vin terminal to the 3 rd voltage source within 5 seconds. If the AC voltage measurement is larger than 80Vrms (40 ~ 80Hz) again, the phase -rotation sequence will be determined and 1 23 or 321 symbols of LCD segment will be turn on to indicate the phase -rotation sequence. If the AC voltage is less than 80Vrms or signal frequency is not within 40~80Hz in 5 seconds duration, the phase-rotation detection will be aborted. Push VAHz key larger than one second will abort the detection also. The LOCK symbol will be disappeared when procedure is aborted. Note: The time limit is 5 seconds between Step2 & Step 3.

ES252 incorporates a dual slope ADC with four phases: ZI, AZ, INT and DINT. The timing of each phase is listed below. (1) V oltage / Diode /ADP / Manual Current (for clampmeter) measurement: Phase High resolution ZI 50ms AZ 25ms INT 100ms DINT 155ms (2) Current mode for multimeter/Auto Current mode for clampmeter/2-range auto voltage mode: Phase DC / AC DC Lower Range ZI 50ms 50ms AZ 25ms 25ms INT 100ms 1000ms DINT 155ms 175ms (3) Continuity / Ohm measurement: Phase Time ZI 50ms AZ 100ms INT 25ms* DINT 155ms Note: INT time = 250ms for 20.00Ω range (4) Frequency / V AHz measurement: Every conversion takes 1.05 second. (5) Temperature measurement: Every conversion takes 1.25 second. Note: 1. In the frequency measurement with auto mode, if the range is changed, the internal clock rate will increase ten times and the new measurement cycle becomes 1/10 times of the original cycle until the range is stable.
