Description

The STEVAL-IPE005V1 demonstration board

works in conjunction with the STPM01 energy

meter ASSP device and with the STPM01

manager software. It is an integrated system

designed to provide the user with a complete,

ready-to-use energy meter application. This board

is a high-end solution for power metering based

on the STR710 microcontroller with an embedded

RTC and an external memory interface (EMI)

ready to drive 1Mbyte of on-board SRAM. The

demonstration board also integrates an on-board

optical insulated serial line allowing isolation of

the board ground reference in order to avoid

propagation of over-voltage on the PC side.

Moreover, the on-board charge pump allows

burning the STPM01 energy meter ASSP device

registers.

Access to the STPM01 device registers is

ensured using a dedicated SPI bus interface. The

STPM01 programmer kit demonstrates how

effectively the STPM01 can be used in real-world

energy meter applications and it helps the user to

develop his own application.
