Cirrus Logic Develops Two New High-Precision Industrial Power Meter ICs for Growing Power Measurement Market.AUSTIN Austin. 1 City (1990 pop. 21,907), seat of Mower co., SE Minn., on the Cedar River, near the Iowa line; inc. 1868. The commercial and industrial center of a rich farm region, it is noted as home to the Hormel meatpacking company, whose Spam Town museum , Texas -- With the introduction of the CS5464 and CS5467 from Cirrus Logic (company) Cirrus Logic - A manufacturer of integrated circuits including the Advanced RISC Machine and display interface processors and cards for use as Windows accelerators (requiring dedicated driver software). http://cirrus.com/. Inc. (Nasdaq:CRUS crus (krus) pl. cru´ra [L.] 1. leg (1). 2. a leglike part. crus ce´rebri ), manufacturers of residential power meters can implement more reliable, lower-cost and higher-accuracy power meters for measuring consumer power usage. Targeting India and other fast-developing markets for residential power measurement applications, the CS5464 delivers superior power-measurement performance by utilizing fourth-order Delta Sigma SIGMA - A scientific visual programming environment from NASA. http://fi-www.arc.nasa.gov/fia/projects/sigma/. 24-bit analog-to-digital converters for measuring current, offering double the dynamic range of competing ICs. The CS5464 also features advanced programmable fault/tamper detection -- an important feature in energy theft prevention within industrial and residential environments. The CS5467 is designed for market-specific demands within Japan, offering two current channels and two voltage channels for simultaneous two-phase measurements. This configuration is popular in network meters and commercial three-phase metering applications throughout the world. "The CS5464 and CS5467 have been designed to provide both long-term Long-term Three or more years. In the context of accounting, more than 1 year. long-term 1. Of or relating to a gain or loss in the value of a security that has been held over a specific length of time. Compare short-term. reliability and high performance energy measurement for residential and industrial measurement applications," said John Paulos, vice president and general manager, Industrial Products Division, Cirrus Logic. "Power measurement feature requirements often vary in different countries and regions, and Cirrus Logic targets this global market with a wide-ranging family of high-precision, field-proven power meter ICs that offer excellent performance, reliability and the right set of customized features." For the electrical meter market where reliability and accuracy are key, Cirrus Logic's new solution provides the design flexibility to help makers of residential power meters reduce costs and get to market faster with a better-quality power meter product. To achieve this, the CS5464 and CS5467's features include system-level calibration calibration /cal·i·bra·tion/ (kal?i-bra´shun) determination of the accuracy of an instrument, usually by measurement of its variation from a standard, to ascertain necessary correction factors. , temperature sensing, voltage sag, current fault detection and phase compensation. Cirrus Logic's wide-ranging family of power meter ICs provides a balanced offering of feature rich, cost-effective cost-effective, n the minimal expenditure of dollars, time, and other elements necessary to achieve the health care result deemed necessary and appropriate. solutions targeting the growing worldwide market shift towards fully electronic energy measurement. Cirrus Logic Inc. Cirrus Logic develops high-precision analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits A mixed-signal integrated circuit combines analog circuits with digital signal processing (DSP) circuits on a single semiconductor die. An integrated circuit that includes both analog and digital circuitry (but no DSP), like a 555 timer, is generally not considered a mixed-signal for a broad range of consumer and industrial markets. Building on its diverse analog mixed-signal patent portfolio, Cirrus Logic delivers highly optimized products for consumer and commercial audio, automotive entertainment and industrial applications. The company operates from headquarters in Austin, Texas, with offices in Colorado, Europe, Japan and Asia. Cirrus Logic and Cirrus are trademarks of Cirrus Logic Inc.
