STMicroelectronics Single Phase Metering ICs | New Product Brief
This New Product Brief (NPB) is part of a video series highlighting the features, applications, and technical specs of newly-released products.
STMicroelectronics Single Phase Metering ICs
STMicroelectronics family of metering ICs provide high accuracy power and energy measurement in power line systems. The STPM3 family offers up to four independent 2nd order 24-bit ADCs and up to two programmable low noise amplifiers providing power measurement accuracy better than 0.1% and exceeding the AC watt meter standards, with the flexibility of using Rogowski coils, current transformers, or shunt resistors.
The ICs provide instantaneous voltage and current waveforms, as well as calculations of RMS voltage and current as well as active, reactive, and apparent power and energy.
STPM3 metering ICs are fully programmable over their serial interface and offer under and overvoltage detection, overcurrent detection, programmable LED and interrupt outputs, and a fast, single-point system calibration.
