Power Transducer |

Dear Friends,
Do someone ever used Power Transducer Board which is capable to measure AC Voltage (230VAC), AC Current, Frequency and Power Factor? I need to interface PIC using I2C or SPI to get data from registers? Is there any kits available? |

I searched on Google. I was looking just for some good advices. I do not want answer...Sorry but I am noticing that many replies are sarcastic and I really hate those replies. I was looking for some replies with advice and not to give me definite answers! |

You should show us either a part number or a link to the sensor you're interested in !
'Power Transducer Board ' is a rather 'general' term. Same goes for 'current,frequency,etc....'
There are dozens of sensors that could be used(I've used a couple) but really post which one you want a driver for or what are your required parameters(voltages,current,interface).
You'll get more help if you can specify the details.

You've been down this road at least once before on this forum.
You're asking others to do your fundamental research.
You should not be surprised if people start to feel that you are taking advantage and appear sarcastic.
It seems to me that many of the regulars here are more than willing to freely give their advice, help if you show that you've done some real work.
You've already got a similar thread going on alternating current measurements.
Is that thread now dead?
I ask because you're not answering the questions put to you.

I am always ready to answer a specific question, but not to do part selection.
After all, is not my project, and your specs are far from clear.
You need to take the advice offered, and tentatively select some parts for consideration and decide what might work for you.
The search i offered you returns a NUMBER of parts that might work for what you want to do.
several of those parts HAVE demo PCBS etc as well . You only find out which by doing the research yourself.
Knowing what you want to do is not made clear by the post .
If you clarify your thoughts and propose at least a rudimentary solution , now that is a start point I and others could latch on to.
Sorry if you think it's
But where DO you search , Baidu ??? or BING-o ? or Yayhoo?
lastly out of curiosity, are you the SAME 'AARONIK19"
who posts these same sorts of questions on:
AVRFreaks,
STM8,
STM32
and other specialty boards as well?
- REALLY though , best of luck with this project |
