Reference Designs

Increasingly, applications require Wi-Fi-enabled energy measurement and control, particularly in end products such as Smart Plugs and Smart Receptacles, and in general application spaces such as home appliances, Smart Grid, and building automation.

The CC3200 Smart Plug is a full system solution, which integrates within a single microcontroller (MCU) the metrology data computation, and handles all Wi-Fi communication, including connection to a cloud server. The device monitors energy consumption from a single load and controls the high voltage side while communicating data over Wi-Fi to other devices and to Cloud server. The system also includes a Flyback Power Supply Unit (PSU) that powers the system efficiently while being highly compact.
