The MCP39F511N dual-channel power-monitoring IC is also said to facilitate the design of power hungry appliances, machinery and systems as it reduces firmware development and the number of ICs required for power monitoring of multiple loads.
An integrated low-drift voltage reference in addition to the 94.5dB of SINAD performance on each current measurement channel allows the MCP39F511N to monitor two current loads with 0.5% error across a 4000:1 dynamic range.The ability to measure active, reactive and apparent power, active and reactive energy accumulation, RMS current and RMS voltage, line frequency, and power factor combined with advanced, integrated features allows system designers of high-performance devices to reduce bill of materials and time-to-market.
The MCP39F511N is available in a 28-lead, 5 x 5mm QFN package and is supported by Microchip’s MCP39F511N Power Monitor Demonstration Board (ADM00706).
