Default Smart plug energy monitoring chip

Does anyone recognise this energy monitoring chip? The marking I see is
"1852AVH":

It's in an Aldi (Medion brand) WiFi smart plug.

The "8" is really a "B". Try 1B52AVH instead.

Unfortunatly, I couldn't find anything with that part number using
Google search.

Model number? Photo? Any patent numbers in the docs?

I couldn't find the logo:

I don't know if this is the same product, but it's easy enough to try:
"Kankun Runs on OpenWrt firmware"

I tried that too, but (see 2nd image) I'm pretty sure it's an "8".

Anyhow more searching and it looks like someone has figured it out and
ported Tasmota to it, and they call it a BL0937 (first line of text, not
second). Still can't find a data sheet but there's a driver here. Same
code for HJL-01 which looks a lot like an HLW8012 supposedly:
https://github.com/arendst/Sonoff-Tasmota/blob/development/sonoff/xnrg_01_hlw8012.ino

"Medion LIFE+ Smart Plug", S85225, model number MD 93225.
It says it's compatible with Alexa and Google Home.
Similar is available he

I beg to differ. Take another look at my image at:
http://www.learnbydestroying.com/jeffl/crud/1B52AVH.jpg
Notice that the "B" in "BL" on the first line is exactly the same as
the "B" on the 2nd line.

Anyhow more searching and it looks like someone has figured it out and
ported Tasmota to it, and they call it a BL0937 (first line of text, not
second).


Oops. I didn't think of that.

I don't think so. Looking at the circuitry around the chip, it looks
like some kind of analog device, not a energy monitor, which usually
has an SPI bus and talks digital. Googling for BL0937, I find an
analog current regulator:

If you zoom into the photo on the above page, it looks exactly like
your two photos.

Well, for some reason the data sheet doesn't come up in Google, but here
it is:
https://github.com/xoseperez/espurna/files/1861834/BL0937_Datasheet_V1.01.pdf.zip
or from the manufactorer's site:
http://www.belling.com.cn/en/product_info.html?id=138

A differential input (across a 0.001R resistor), a voltage input, both
connected to ADCs and thence to voltage-to-frequency converters. There
are two frequency outputs, and a selector pin for voltage or current on
one of them. The other frequency indicates power; presumably closer to
instantaneous power whereas the I and V can't be read simultaneously.

That matches the pinout of the HLW8012 also, but the select polarity is
reversed or some such nonsense; the driver writer has worked it out
anyhow, see the thread at https://github.com/xoseperez/espurna/issues/737.

I don't think so. Looking at the circuitry around the chip, it looks
like some kind of analog device, not a energy monitor, which usually
has an SPI bus and talks digital. Googling for BL0937, I find an
analog current regulator:
https://lcsc.com/product-detail/PMIC-Current-Regulation_BL0937_C94616.html

Nevertheless that's not it.
