Product Details

The TERIDIAN Semiconductor Corporation (TSC) 71M6521 Demo Board is an energy meter IC demonstration board for evaluating the 71M6521 device for single-phase electronic energy metering applications. It incorporates a 71M6521 integrated circuit, peripheral circuitry such as a serial EEPROM, emulator port, and on-board power supply as well as a companion Debug Board that allows a connection to a PC through a RS232 port. The Demo Board allows the evaluation of the 71M6521 energy meter controller chip for measurement accuracy and overall system use.

The board is pre-programmed with a Demo Program (file name 6521_demo.hex) in the FLASH memory of the 71M6521 IC. This embedded application is developed to exercise all low-level functions to directly manage the peripherals and CPU (clock, timing, power savings, etc.).

Applications

  • Residential Meters, 0.5% Accuracy
