Enhancing DAQ performance for grid protection, control and monitoring equipment, using DC/DC power modules
(Note: Akshay Mehta co-authored this blog post.) In my previous blog posts on improving data acquisition (DAQ) performance for grid protection, control and monitoring equipment, I discussed the need for interfacing multiple analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and showed how you can improve DAQ performance and measurement accuracy by using the programmable...

Using smart relay drivers for smart meters, part 2
In part 1 of this series, my colleague Shreenidhi Patil discussed the two most popular types of latching relays used in smart meters: a single-coil relay and a dual-coil relay. In this installment, I will explore TI’s offerings for relay-driving applications, including typical schematics and waveforms. Also, for an application-level understanding...

Covering wide analog input measurement for grid protection and control using 24-bit delta-sigma ADCs
In my two previous blog posts on improving data acquisition (DAQ) for grid protection and control, I discussed the need for interfacing multiple analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) to a single processor and using the programmable real-time unit subsystem and industrial communication subsystem (PRU-ICSS) to improve sensor DAQ performance . In this post...

Using smart relay drivers for smart meters, part 1
Utilities deploy an estimated 100 million smart electricity meters around the world annually. The ability to monitor live power consumption and remotely provide or disconnect electric service to customers is a foundational feature for a smart electricity meter. Utility operators need to remotely connect or disconnect electric service for several...

An open-and-shut case, part 2: advantages of inductive-based case tamper detection in smart meters
In the first installment of this series, I discussed some of the limitations of mechanical tamper detection for smart meters and introduced a new inductive-based implementation using the LDC0851 . In this installment, I will discuss the advantages of this implementation. First, the solid-state switching of the LDC0851 eliminates the mechanical failures...

TI brings deep learning inference to the edge
Even if you’re not very familiar with deep learning, you’ve probably heard about it. Whether it’s how it can help bring autonomous vehicles to the roads, challenge the world’s best Go players, increase manufacturing efficiency or change the consumer shopping experience, deep learning is considered a foundational technology that...

An open-and-shut case, part 1: limitations of mechanical case tamper detection in smart meters
To increase system efficiency and reduce revenue loss, utility providers must either prevent or detect when customers are stealing services. A common way to steal service is to tamper with the meters used for billing. Many tamper methods are invasive and require modifications to components inside the meter case, so the first line of defense is the meter...

Adding imagination to your next-generation appliances
Every day we interact with human machine interfaces (HMIs). Some of these interactions are obvious, like when you touch the home screen on your smartphone or tablet, but the most common context for HMI is actually in industrial applications. At the Appliance and Electronics World Expo earlier this year, more and more appliances – refrigerators...

Leveraging the 60-GHz RF band for intelligent industrial mmWave sensing
Industrial designers are eager to use millimeter-wave (mmWave) sensors, given their ability to accurately sense the range, velocity and angle of objects in a scene. As cities, buildings and factories have become more intelligent, they need to have more accurate and intelligent sensing capabilities. The open 60-GHz radio-frequency (RF) band enables more...

Industry 4.0 spelled backward makes no sense – and neither does the fact that you haven’t heard of TI’s newest processor yet
The new, highly integrated Sitara™ AM6x processor family provides industrial-grade reliability and features quad and dual Arm® Cortex®-A53 core variants that are built to meet the rapidly evolving needs of Industry 4.0 applications in factory automation and grid infrastructure, like those shown in Figure 1. By including an on-chip lockstep...
