Heating Cost Meter (HCM)
Overview
The purpose of a heating cost meter (HCM) is to retrieve data from meters, calculate actual temperatures, and display the amount of heat consumed for the purpose of collating charges (gas, electricity, water, etc.). In addition to a digital display, temperature sensors, and communication interfaces, an HCM may also require ultra-low power consumption if long battery-driven operation is a requirement.
Renesas' range of remarkably low power 8/16-bit microcontrollers equipped with the necessary functions is ideally suited for these applications.
