Utility Metering Solutions
Microcontrollers Technology
eXtreme Low Power with XLP Technology
- Sleep currents down to 20 nA; Real-Time Clock down to 400 nA extends operation in outage conditions
- Wake-up sources including Real-Time Clock (RTC), Timer (WDT), Brown-out Reset (BOR), Interrupts, Reset,
or Power-on Reset (POR)
Efficient Processing Architecture Lowers Active Current
- Reduce power consumption with shorter run times
- Over 88% of PIC24 instructions are single cycle
- As low as 150 uA/MHz run power on the 16-bit PIC24 MCU family
- DMA transfers across peripherals to reduce power
Integrated Precision Time Measurement
- Constant current source to calculate both capacitance and time changes
- CTMU time measurement capabilities down to 500pSec resolution
- Precision temperature measurements using inexpensive diodes, resistive temperature device (RTD), PTC, and NTC sensors
Integrated Real-Time-Clock and Calendar (RTCC)
- Integrated Real-Time-Clock and Calendar (RTCC)
- Full calendar and time with Leap Year adjustment
- Built-in RTCCAL register for Watch Crystal calibration
LCD Integration
