Power meters


The power meter market is expanding in emerging economies. Power meters are increasingly computerized and support automatic meter reading by including communication functions that use wireless or power lines.
Our microcontrollers have an LCD function that can be used to build systems supporting ZigBee® wireless communication, making these MCUs ideal for this market.
