IDT’s new IDT 90E46 is a single-phase SoC for smart meter designs, which integrates an energy metering analog front-end with a real-time clock, temperature sensor, LCD driver and ARM Cortex M0 microprocessor. It offers a wide dynamic range of 5000:1, which enables meter manufacturers to merge various meter types into one. The device is fully compliant with international (both IEC and ANSI) and Chinese standards. It features 128 KB of internal Flash memory, enabling users to store large instruction sets for the integrated microprocessor.
