The company said that the EFM32G890F128 microcontroller manages the A200’s high accuracy flow measurement, data logging, secure communication and application firmware upgrades.
The Aquiba A200 smart water meter betters the traditional mechanical meters, has no moving parts and provides metrology, ensuring high accuracy measurement even at the lowest flow rates and over the product’s full service lifespan.
The A200 also has the in-built flexibility to enable it to be rapidly adapted to meet future metering requirements that allows water operators to plan for future changes in climate and network infrastructure, .
Energy Micro’s EFM32 Gecko microcontroller is capable of consuming a quarter of the battery energy required by alternative 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit microcontrollers.
The microcontroller is characterized by very low active and standby power consumption, fast processing and wake-up time and highly flexible low energy modes, according to the company.
