// The BL0942 IC is "calibration-free", which means that it doesn't care
// at all about calibration, and that's left to software. It measures a
// voltage differential on its IP/IN pins which linearly proportional to
// the current flow, and another on its VP pin which is proportional to
// the line voltage. It never knows the actual calibration; the values
// it reports are solely in terms of those inputs.
//
// The datasheet refers to the input voltages as I(A) and V(V), both
// in millivolts. It measures them against a reference voltage Vref,
// which is typically 1.218V (but that absolute value is meaningless
// without the actual calibration anyway).
//
// The reported I_RMS value is 305978 I(A)/Vref, and the reported V_RMS
// value is 73989 V(V)/Vref. So we can calibrate those by applying a
// simple meter with a resistive load.
//
// The chip also measures the phase difference between voltage and
// current, and uses it to calculate the power factor (cos φ). It
// reports the WATT value of 3537 * I_RMS * V_RMS * cos φ).
//
// It also integrates total energy based on the WATT value. The time for
// one CF_CNT pulse is 1638.4*256 / WATT.
//
// So... how do we calibrate that?
//
// Using a simple resistive load and an external meter, we can measure
// the true voltage and current for a given V_RMS and I_RMS reading,
// to calculate BL0942_UREF and BL0942_IREF. Those are in units of
// "305978 counts per amp" or "73989 counts per volt" respectively.
//
// We can derive BL0942_PREF from those. Let's eliminate the weird
// factors and express the calibration in plain counts per volt/amp:
// UREF1 = UREF/73989, IREF1 = IREF/305978.
//
// Next... the true power in Watts is V * I * cos φ, so that's equal
// to WATT/3537 * IREF1 * UREF1. Which means
// BL0942_PREF = BL0942_UREF * BL0942_IREF * 3537 / 305978 / 73989.
//
// Finally the accumulated energy. The period of a CF_CNT count is
// 1638.4*256 / WATT seconds, or 419230.4 / WATT seconds. Which means
// the energy represented by a CN_CNT pulse is 419230.4 WATT-seconds.
// Factoring in the calibration, that's 419230.4 / BL0942_PREF actual
// Watt-seconds (or Joules, as the physicists like to call them).
//
// But we're not being physicists today; we we're being engineers, so
// we want to convert to kWh instead. Which we do by dividing by 1000
// and then by 3600, so the energy in kWh is
// CF_CNT * 419230.4 / BL0942_PREF / 3600000
//
// Which makes BL0952_EREF = BL0942_PREF * 3600000 / 419430.4
