Energy Metering IC Vendors and Manufacturers

This page lists energy metering IC vendors and manufacturers, along with example part numbers.

About Energy Metering ICs:

Energy metering ICs are designed for a wide array of applications, including:

  • Energy metering systems
  • Solar inverters
  • Power quality monitoring
  • Process monitoring
  • Protective devices

These ICs take analog inputs (typically AC/DC current and AC/DC voltage) and output various energy measurements (active, reactive, and apparent). They calculate these energy values and store them in internal registers accessible via a microcontroller using SPI or I2C interface lines.

Key Technical Specifications for Selection:

When choosing an energy metering IC, consider these specifications:

  • Analog inputs
  • Output interface (SPI or I2C)
  • Active Energy, Reactive Energy, and Apparent Energy measurements
  • Clock input and clock output
  • Harmonic measurements
  • RMS measurements
  • Mean Absolute Value
  • Interrupt request outputs
  • Frequency output
