The ``atm90e32`` sensor platform allows you to use your ATM90E32 voltage/current and power sensors
(`datasheet <http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/devicedoc/Atmel-46003-SE-M90E32AS-Datasheet.pdf>`__) sensors with
ESPHome. This sensor is commonly found in CircuitSetup 2 and 6 channel energy meters.

Communication with the device is done via an :ref:`SPI bus <spi>`, so you need to have an ``spi:`` entry in your configuration
with both ``mosi_pin`` and ``miso_pin`` set.

The ATM90E32 IC can measure up to three AC voltages although typically only one
voltage measurement would be used for the mains electricity phase of a
household. Three current measurements are read via CT clamps.

The `CircuitSetup 2-Channel Energy Monitor <https://circuitsetup.us/index.php/product/split-single-phase-real-time-whole-house-energy-meter-v1-2/>`__ can read 2 current channels and one voltage channel.

The `CircuitSetup 6-Channel Energy Monitor <https://circuitsetup.us/index.php/product/expandable-6-channel-esp32-energy-meter/>`__ can read 6 current channels and 2 voltage channels at a time, this board has two ATM90E32 ICs and requires two sensors to be configured in ESPHome.

Configuration variables:
------------------------

- **cs_pin** (**Required**, :ref:`Pin Schema <config-pin_schema>`): The pin CS is connected to.
- **line_frequency** (**Required**, string): The AC line frequency of the supply voltage. One of ``50Hz``, ``60Hz``.
- **phase_a** (*Optional*): The configuration options for the 1st phase.

  - **voltage** (*Optional*): Use the voltage value of this phase in V (RMS).
    All options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
  - **current** (*Optional*): Use the current value of this phase in amperes. All options from
    :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
  - **power** (*Optional*): Use the power value on this phase in watts. All options from
    :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
  - **gain_voltage** (*Optional*, int): Voltage gain to scale the low voltage AC power pack to household mains feed.
    Defaults to ``41820``.
  - **gain_ct** (*Optional*, int): CT clamp calibration for this phase.
    Defaults to ``25498``.

- **phase_b** (*Optional*): The configuration options for the 2nd phase. Same options as 1st phase.
- **phase_c** (*Optional*): The configuration options for the 3rd phase. Same options as 1st phase.
- **gain_pga** (*Optional*, string): The gain for the CT clamp, ``2X`` for 100A, ``4X`` for 100A - 200A. One of ``1X``, ``2X``, ``4X``.
  Defaults to ``2X`` which is suitable for the popular SCT-013-000 clamp.
- **update_interval** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The interval to check the sensor. Defaults to ``60s``.
- **spi_id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID of the :ref:`SPI Component <spi>` if you want
  to use multiple SPI buses.

Calibration
-----------

This sensor needs calibration to show correct values. The default gain configuration is set to use the `SCT-013-000 <https://amzn.to/2E0KVvo>`__
current transformers, and the `Jameco Reliapro 9v AC transformer <https://amzn.to/2XcWJjI>`__.
A load which uses a known amount of current can be used to calibrate. For for a more accurate calibration use a
`Kill-A-Watt <https://amzn.to/2TXT7jx>`__ meter or similar, mains voltages can fluctuate depending on grid load.

Voltage
^^^^^^^

Use the expected mains voltage for your region 110V/230V or plug in the Kill-A-Watt and select voltage. See what
value the ATM90E32 sensor reports for voltage. To adjust the sensor use the calculation:

``New gain_voltage = (your voltage reading / ESPHome voltage reading) * existing gain_voltage value``

Update **gain_voltage** for all phases in your ESPHome yaml, recompile and upload. Repeat as necessary.

Current
^^^^^^^

Switch on the current load and see what value the ATM90E32 sensor reports for
current on the selected phase. Using the known or measured current adjust the
sensor using calculation:

``New gain_ct = (your current reading / ESPHome current reading) * existing gain_ct value``

Update **gain_ct** for the phase in your ESPHome yaml, recompile and upload. Repeat as necessary.

It is possible that the two identical CT current sensors will have different
**gain_ct** numbers due to variances in manufacturing although it will be
small. The current calibration can be done once and used on all sensors or
repeated for each one.
