Implementing An Electronic Watt-Hour Meter With
MSP430FE42x(A)/FE42x2
Stefan Schauer, Kripasagar Venkat ......................................................................... MSP430 Applications
ABSTRACT
This report shows how to implement an electronic watt-hour meter with the
MSP430FE42x(A)/FE42x2 devices. It contains guidelines and recommendations for
use of the MSP430FE42x(A) and MSP430FE42x2 devices. In addition, a reference
board with hardware details and software examples are included.
