Ultrasonic Water Flow Meter Design using Time to Digital Conversion
Texas Instruments
The TIDM-ULTRASONIC-FLOW-TDC is a reference design for an ultrasonic flow meter (water: gas or heat meter) with LCD built using a Time-to-Digital converter and an ultra-low power MCU. Solution includes optimized leakage detection: low power consumption: and a small form factor that are important requirements for water: heat and gas meter applications. This design also includes a high efficiency DC-DC converter for system power.
