Online design centre for electronic utility meters

16 November 2005 News

A comprehensive website that provides engineers with technical tools and resources needed to simplify the design process and speed the design cycle for creating accurate, reliable, and low-cost utility metering applications has been launched by Microchip Technology at www.microchip.com/meter.

An 'Introduction to Metering' section supports those who are new to electronic design, offering an overview of the migration from mechanical meter designs to electronic-based solutions. It also features charts that take the user through all of the building blocks and considerations in creating a utility metering design, whether it is gas, water, heat or power. The website also offers complete access to all of Microchip's metering application notes, reference designs, and other technical documentation addressing critical design features, such as accuracy, low cost displays, low power consumption, remote communication and billing.
