HiTrend为其下一代智能电能计量芯片选择Dolphin Integration的缓存控制器

Grenoble, France – March 19^th, 2018 -- Smart grid for energy management in smart cities represents a new challenge for electrical providers. The growing demand in managing and controlling energy consumption requires innovative equipment with advanced metering, grid control technics and asset monitoring.

HiTrend leads the domestic smart meter IC industry with its analog and digital technologies. It created a series of energy metering IC products, as well as power line carrier communication IC products. Its Energy Metering ICs are based on Cortex-M0 ARM micro controller with Flash/SRAM memories.

To achieve performance and low power, HiTrend has opted to combine the Cortex-M0 with Dolphin Integration’s R-STRATUS-LP cache controller.

The Dolphin Integration R-Stratus-LP cache controller is THE new generation of cache controller for MCU applications. It provides the twofold advantage of improving speed and minimizing power consumption. Speed is improved by up to 11 times and power is reduced by 14 times whenever the application program is stored in a NVM (Non Volatile Memories) such as eFlash or EEPROM. It supports straightforward connection such as AHB-lite interface and standard interface for TAG and cache memories, thus improving portability across a wide range of process technologies.

“The choice of the Dolphin Integration’s cache controller for our SoC was an excellent trade-off between price, performance and low power consumption compared to other offers such as ARM. We are highly confident for the integration phase, which is simplified by the support of standard interfaces. The innovative self-adaptive module, dynamically upgrading cache configuration according to the executed program, is very helpful in targeting very low power applications that require performance.” said Xingmin Sale Manager at HiTrend.
