This paper reports recent progress in developing a new asynchronous digital phase comparator for the precision measurement of phase difference of voltage ratio devices and calibration of functional elements of phasor measurement units (PMUs) calibrator. The phase error of the proposed digital comparator is below 300 nrad at 50 Hz and 100 μrad at 100 kHz with applied voltages ranging between 500 mV and 3 V, whereas the phase error of cables and connectors was estimated to be 4 μrad at 1 MHz. Besides resistive dividers, the phase comparator has been employed for the characterization of frequency behavior of phase difference between the output and input of voltage and transconductance amplifiers for a PMUs calibrator.

Abstract

This paper reports recent progress in developing a new asynchronous digital phase comparator for the precision measurement of phase difference of voltage ratio devices and calibration of functional elements of phasor measurement units (PMUs) calibrator. The phase error of the proposed digital comparator is below 300 nrad at 50 Hz and 100 μrad at 100 kHz with applied voltages ranging between 500 mV and 3 V, whereas the phase error of cables and connectors was estimated to be 4 μrad at 1 MHz. Besides resistive dividers, the phase comparator has been employed for the characterization of frequency behavior of phase difference between the output and input of voltage and transconductance amplifiers for a PMUs calibrator. The system can also be an important tool for phase-frequency characterization of devices employed for specific wideband power measurements.
