The development platform takes advantage of TI Smart Grid software libraries to implement key communication standards and typical utility-meter functions and, along with the hardware, allows developers to choose the development tool matching their project needs. SMB 3.0 availability limited for demonstration purposes.
TI’s Smart Meter Board 3.0 Demonstration
The SMB 3.0 is a modular development platform incorporating key TI Smart Grid devices to demonstrate the capabilities of a smart meter. SMB 3.0 is a unique tool with multiple features. It performs energy or electricity metering and has the capability of transferring key metering data via wired power-line and wireless (Wi-Fi, ZigBee, sub-1-GHz) communication to showcase a simple automatic meter reading and automatic metering infrastructure system.
