Since the RMS calculation involves the post-processor, these registers will not be functional when the CE_ONLY bit in the
CONFIG register is set. If higher precision is required, the host must calculate the RMS currents from the values in the
IASQSUM, IBSQSUM, and ICSQSUM registers. For even higher precision, the IASQFRACT, IBSQFRACT, ICSQFRACT
registers should be used.
Example: The register IRMS_C reads the value 2,079,670. Assuming IMAX to be 208A, and using the formula
above, we determine the RMS current of phase C to:

VASQSUM (0x3D), VBSQSUM (0x3E), VCSQSUM (0x3F)
These registers hold the sum of the squared voltage samples collected during the previous accumulation interval. The
values for VASQSUM, VBSQSUM, and VCSQSUM are provided directly by the CE and are not post-processed. The
magnitude of the accumulated samples is determined by:

VPHASE_ABC (0x10)
This register holds the phase angle between the voltages of phases A/C and A/B. The LSB is one degree.
Bits 15-0: These bits (VPHASE_AC) hold the phase angle between VA and VC.
Bits 31-16: These bits (VPHASE_AB) hold the phase angle between VA and VB.
VRMS_A (0x09), VRMS_B (0x0A), VRMS_C (0x0B)
These registers hold the post-processed RMS voltage for each phase. Only the 16 most significant bits are used. The
magnitude of the values is determined by:
