OverviewssIn industrial facilities, power infrastructure, and building energy systems, **accurate power quality (PQ) monitoring** is critical. Issues such as voltage sags, surges, harmonics, and frequency variations can lead to equipment degradation and unexpected system failures. **AD-PQMON-SL** is a **power quality monitoring evaluation platform** from Analog Devices, designed to help engineers quickly evaluate and validate power quality measurement and analysis before deploying a full system. This article introduces the architecture, key features, and typical use cases of the AD-PQMON-SL evaluation board. --- #### 2. What Is AD-PQMON-SL? ![](https://maker.wiznet.io/upload/ckeditor5/647244242%5F1767796324%2Epng) **AD-PQMON-SL is a power quality monitoring evaluation platform with the WIZnet WIZ850io Ethernet module already integrated.** It combines Analog Devices’ high-precision power quality measurement ICs with **WIZ850io, a hardware TCP/IP–based Ethernet module**, enabling out-of-the-box network connectivity. Key elements of the platform include: - High-accuracy voltage, current, and power quality measurement (Analog Devices) - MCU-based data processing - **Built-in Ethernet communication via WIZnet WIZ850io** With this architecture, AD-PQMON-SL allows engineers to **evaluate remote, network-based power quality monitoring without adding external Ethernet hardware**. --- #### 3. Key Features and Capabilities ![](https://maker.wiznet.io/upload/ckeditor5/647244242%5F1767796413%2Epng) ### 3.1 High-Accuracy Power Quality Measurement AD-PQMON-SL supports measurement of key power quality parameters, including: - RMS voltage and current - Active, reactive, and apparent power - Line frequency - Harmonic and distortion analysis These capabilities are essential for industrial power monitoring and energy management systems. ### 3.2 Power Quality Event Detection - Voltage sags and swells - Momentary interruptions and surge events - Detection of abnormal power conditions Such event detection is crucial for **equipment protection and predictive maintenance**. ### 3.3 Evaluation-Oriented Design - PC software provided by Analog Devices - Real-time data monitoring and logging - Optimized for algorithm validation and system tuning --- #### 4. Application Scenarios ![AD-PQMON-SL Block Diagram](https://www.analog.com/en/_/media/analog/en/products/image/functional-block-diagrams/ad-pqmon-sl-block-diagram.png?rev=86fdcdb588c546fd930f066224802a1f&sc_lang=en&h=500&hash=4C0A6C98EEFB31EC4DAE036D0B08BD0A) One of the key strengths of AD-PQMON-SL is that the **WIZnet WIZ850io Ethernet module is already integrated into the platform**. This enables a complete evaluation flow—from power quality measurement to Ethernet-based data transmission—on a single board. ### 4.1 Ethernet Transmission of Power Quality Data - ADI power quality ICs: measure voltage, current, harmonics, and PQ events - MCU: data collection and packet processing - **WIZ850io**: hardware TCP/IP–based Ethernet communication Measured power quality data can be transmitted via TCP or UDP to servers, SCADA systems, or cloud platforms in a stable and predictable manner. ### 4.2 Remote Power Quality Monitoring Evaluation - Real-time monitoring of power quality in industrial panels or facilities - Centralized data collection over Ethernet networks - Visualization and analysis via PC software, dashboards, or cloud services Thanks to WIZ850io’s hardware TCP/IP offload, MCU load is minimized, ensuring **both measurement accuracy and communication reliability**. ### 4.3 From Evaluation Board to Production Design AD-PQMON-SL also provides a clear path toward production systems: - Validate power quality measurement and Ethernet communication using AD-PQMON-SL - Design a custom board using the same ADI measurement ICs and WIZ850io - Reuse the proven network architecture in mass-production products This creates a smooth development path from **evaluation → PoC → production**. --- #### 5. Advantages of Analog Devices Power Solutions Analog Devices has extensive experience in power and energy measurement technologies. - High measurement accuracy and reliability - Proven performance in industrial and power infrastructure environments - Long-term product availability and strong technical support These strengths are critical for power systems designed for long-term operation. --- #### 6. Conclusion AD-PQMON-SL is a **practical and powerful platform for evaluating power quality monitoring systems**. It provides reliable measurement data even in complex power environments, enabling stable and confident system design from the early development stages. > *For projects requiring detailed power quality analysis, AD-PQMON-SL is an excellent starting point.* --- #### References [Analog Devices AD-PQMON-SL product page](https://www.analog.com/en/resources/evaluation-hardware-and-software/evaluation-boards-kits/ad-pqmon-sl.html#eb-overview) [Analog Devices power quality solutions overview](https://www.analog.com/en/resources/evaluation-hardware-and-software/evaluation-boards-kits/ad-pqmon-sl.html#eb-overview) --- Source: https://maker.wiznet.io/Sunny_/projects/wiznet-success-stroies--adi-ad-pqmon-sl-1/
