CMOS Digital Isolators Provide Data Protection for Smart Meters

摘要

Smart meters use the latest integrated circuit (IC) technology to accurately measure and report the amount of power consumed. Although smart meters are more sophisticated than electromechanical power meters, a primary concern in smart meter design is measurement data integrity, which can directly impact the utility provider's billing revenue. One of the most effective solutions for ensuring data integrity in smart meter designs is the use of state-of-the-art digital isolation technology.
