Cirrus Logic Power Meter Converter Provides Manufacturers With Reliable, Highly Accurate, Long-Term Energy Measurement Solution.AUSTIN, Texas -- With the introduction of the CS5466, a new single-phase power meter IC 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. Among the CS5466's capabilities is superior performance, offering energy data linearity to within a 0.1 percent of reading over a 1000:1 dynamic range, double the 500:1 dynamic range of other competitive ICs. This high performance allows the power meter device to accurately measure extremely small electrical current usage -- an important task in a residential environment where recording energy usage of small appliances Small appliance refers to a class of home appliances that are semi-portable or which are used on tabletops, countertops, or other platforms. Such items are contrasted with major appliances, which are typically fixtures that cannot be easily moved. can go undetected by lower-performing converters.

"This new IC retains the reliability characteristics of Cirrus Logic's field proven CS5460A, which has a long track record of reliable operation in both residential and industrial metering applications. This is especially important as many residential power meters are deployed outdoors for long periods of time. "There continues to be a rapid transition away from mechanical power meters toward electronic meters," Biven continued. "Only electronic meters offer meter manufacturers and industrial users, such as large-scale manufacturing plants, further cost reductions and improved power monitoring capabilities. Cirrus Logic's 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 for power meter systems."
